The apartment was just what we needed for our weekend stay. We loved being able to walk to eat meals, get ice cream or enjoy a beer. Beautiful area. The bed was very comfortable.
The property is well maintained and fairly easy to find. The location is great as there are shops, food, and pubs within walking distance. The house has a nice layout with a good sized bathroom and a really comfortable bed. Communication from the host was great and gave clear instructions for check in and out. I highly recommend this place for anyone in the Southern Pines area.

Thanks so much Glenn! Come back and see us anytime.
Three granddaughters and I stayed here. Ages 10,12 and 14. We had a lot of fun walking downtown. The apartment was clean and nicely decorated. It had everything we needed. Great communication with the property manager. Would stay here again.
