Amazing property!

Wow and wow! We had a wonderful weekend at Bethabara Forest. Can't say enough good things. The house is spacious, beautifully decorated, and so comfortable. We especially loved the sunroom! The yard is beautifully landscaped. The neighborhood is serene and peaceful, yet close to stores and restaurants. Chad responded within a few minutes to my inquiries. It was really one of my best experiences renting a home.

BOOK THIS HOUSE!

This is the most amazing experience my family has ever experienced in our 6 years renting vacation houses. Chad and Kami were beyond accommodating for our post Christmas family reunion of 4 families including 8 adults and 2 children. They provided a beautiful tree fully decorated to include chocolate santa ornaments for our kids. They left a lovely bottle of champagne, chocolates and holiday bouquets of fresh flowers on both dining tables. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything we needed to prepare our holiday

Fantastic house for large group!

In town for a soccer tournament. Team was able to stay together in this beautiful home. Plenty of space for everyone! Host was very accommodating with check-in and check-out times which was extremely helpful. Superbly furnished. Delicious coffee station, comfortable beds, and space for the tram to gather and hang out.

The Perfect Destination

Our experience is exactly why we love the Vrbo option. We were in town for Parents Weekend and this house gave us a welcoming place to convene over coffee and conversation with our son and another couple in town. Welcoming and well located, I recommend this home without hesitation. The hosts made sure the logistics were smooth as silk including local recommendations.

About the host

Hosted by Chad and / or Kami Leslie

Chad, Kami and the boys, Leo and Yilan.   World travelers, from France / Brazil and the USA, we spent the last 20 years all over the world working in theater, entertainment, and education. We produced high profile special events for companies such as Cirque du Soleil, Franco Dragon, MGM, Wynns, and created unique experiences with the highest standards. We have visited some of the most beautiful places around the world and stayed at some of the most exquisite resorts, hotels, and VRBO's and have come to understand what it means to be comfortable when you travel. Even though we weren't born and raised in North Carolina, we are North Carolinians in both heart and mind. We have now established a home here in Winston-Salem and we are creating Great Experiences for Great People. Bethabara Forest is a place for you to experience the best of world class hospitality. We invite you to enjoy the peace and comfort of a piece of Paradise in a forest only a few minutes away from the convenience of the city. We hope you love it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Welcome to Winston-Salem, the City of Arts & Innovation! Town & Country is a well-established Mid Century residential neighborhood. Wooded, with a small lake and streams, full of wildlife: birds, deer, foxes, rabbits, and beautiful gardens with flowers and trees that change with the seasons.

What makes this property unique

We love the outdoors and yet, don't want to be too far away from the comforts of a warm home and the excitement of a lively city. Bethabara Forest is all that and more.

With ample outdoor space, you can cozy up to the solo stove fire pit comfortably hidden away in the forested back yard, or enjoy drinks and a meal around the outdoor lounge area.

For the indoor types, enjoy mornings with your coffee around the hand made French Oak table in the den as you look out the bay window and watch deer, rabbits, squirrels and fox romp around the forest.

Looking for a bit more fun and games, dive into the basement for a movie on the 75' TV, play a round of darts or foosball with the kids, crank up the PS4 for some hardcore digital gaming, or enjoy a board game with the whole family.

Dine in the formal dining room and then lounge in the salon with a glass of wine as you wind down the evening sharing stories before you all slip off to cozy memory foam bed.

We have put a lot of time thinking about how to make your stay at Bathabara Forest as memorable as possible, and we hope to have the opportunity to share this special place with you.
