Great Stay

This was a very nice home to stay in for our family. It was close to everything we were visiting and the host was great at communicating to us. I would definitely recommend to anyone traveling to Durham.

Cozy Interior

The interior is very well renovated and cozy. The bathroom and kitchen were very well stocked with the basics and washer and dryer were like new. This house is super close to Duke and walking/running trails. My family enjoyed staying here and the neighbors were welcoming.

Comfortable and good value

Renovated older home just as pictured. High ceilings. Very close to Duke and downtown Durham. Host was super responsive! We had a very comfortable stay…towels were great! Plenty of paper towels, good TP:), hand soap, laundry and dish detergents, garbage bags, common spices, olive oil, etc. Ceiling fans in every room a nice touch!

Cute, quaint, perfect for small family trip

This property was very clean inside and looked exactly like the pictures. The owners left lots of supplies - like towels, kitchen utensils, coffee(keurig), and cleaning supplies. The property DOES NOT have a hot tub like listed, which was very disappointing as that was the reason I choose this place which was further from my family. The owner was very quick to respond to messages, which was good because there were no instructions for anything including getting the keys or using the WIFI. There are two outside areas which are nice but not very clean. If you are looking for a small place for a few days - this is perfect!
