Sweet little house in a great location

We loved staying here over Easter Weekend. The house is perfect for a small group, including two not-so-small dogs. The neighborhood is friendly with a park just down the street. Easy access to just about anywhere you need to be in Durham and beyond.

Andrea was an incredible communicator. Responses were always within minutes. She was accommodating of special requests. The property is exactly as listed. An older house but has been updated nicely. Very clean. Can’t beat the proximity to Duke if that’s on your agenda. Super nice touch that it was decorated for Christmas. Would for sure stay again.

Perfect house for Thanksgiving visit to Durham

The house was comfortable, very clean, with everything in working order. I appreciated the special touches for our dogs - a bed, blanket, and water and food dishes. We were only one block from our family who lives in Durham, and it was a great location for dog walking.

Comfortable home. Beds are a little hard and no cable TV. Other than that it was a great stay.

Had an excellent time in NC. Went tri multiple basketball games. The house is in a decent neighborhood absolutely no issues getting around. Would stay here again.

Traveling to Duke Hospital

We traveled to the area as our daughter was having surgery at Duke Hospital. Andrea, our host was extremely accommodating to our needs. Our trip was longer than anticipated and Andrea was there to help us out each time. We could not be happier with this location and the great hospitality Andrea provided. This place will be our #1 with our next visit!

Lovely home for our weekend

Perfect home for the weekend. You must take a walk through Forrest Hills, it’s beautiful with so many birds, squirrels, and bunnies! Everything in the home was clean, shower water pressure was amazing!! I would definitely stay here again. My only suggestion is softer light bulbs to allow for more comfortable lighting at night. Neighborhood is quiet, close to everything.
