A cute and clean cottage in an excellent location. We were able to walk everywhere in downtown Davidson. Space is light and airy, and very well kept. We appreciated the amenities (well stocked kitchen, desk to work, patio furniture & lighting out back, etc.). We'll be back!

We couldn't have asked for a better location for the town of Davidson! A quaint, 5 minute walk down the quiet street and via a lovely path and you are in the heart of town with its wonderful restaurants and shops. We were there to move our son into Davidson, and it was a breeze to walk to his dorm or meet him in town. Parking is plentiful at the house, but we never used our car other than for dorm shopping runs out of town. Definitely hope to stay again - Natalie was an excellent host and the house is clean, well-appointed and welcoming!

We stayed here while visiting family during the holidays and it helped us have a great stay! Location was quiet and within walking distance of downtown Davidson/Davidson College. We loved that it had a fenced in backyard since we brought out dog. The host was responsive and everything was well taken care of. We plan on trying to stay here again! Would definitely recommend!

Clean and cozy! We loved this house/property. My family of 4 and our dog stayed here while attending a family wedding. The house was the perfect size for us. One of the cleanest places we’ve ever stayed. Very accommodating. Anything we needed, the owner had it there. Our dog loved the spacious fenced in backyard. It’s located a short, easy walk from downtown Davidson. Communication and instructions for everything was very detailed. I would definitely stay here again or any one of the other places from this owner.

The host has done a good job with all the little details and seems like efforts are being made but the house is old and the kitchen cabinets, blinds, back door, and baseboards show it. The furniture is small. The bedding is a little used and the porch furniture is unusable. The backyard lights didn’t work but the front path lights were a nice touch. The street was busy but that was due to construction. The location was good and walkable but for the construction. The house has so much potential to be cozy and welcoming and the host seems to have the knack for it but it’s just not there yet.

Thanks Kelly. So you know, we took the house down to the studs in 2022 and did a complete renovation so everything in the house, including the cabinets, etc, are 3 years old. Also, the outdoor lights are unplugged but can be plugged in anytime as some people didnt like having the lights on at night. Thank you!
