Calm and has everything we needed exactly as listed

The house is lovely and well stocked and well cleaned (except for the screened in porch which is understandable) we easily found everything we needed and more, which was wonderful because our house had a repair issue and we needed to find alternate place for us and our pets asap.

We were very impressed with how thoughtfully appointed this house was with everything we needed. Shampoo and conditioner, nice towels, makeup removal cloth, q-tips, cotton balls, multiple boxes of Kleenex, a full sized monitor to plug our laptop into. Great location 5 to 10 minutes to downtown Durham and Duke University. Quiet neighborhood that is good for dog walking.
