This property is stunningly beautiful! All the detail that went into the design of the property was well thought out and planned! From the carport, to the rock sidewalk, landscaping and home design/decor! The porch is where our family spent many hours so relaxing as you could here the water rushing down the stream. Would absolutely stay here again! Thanks for Sharing your home with guest!

About the host

Hosted by Andrea Douglass

Host profile image
I am a pharmacist at Duke Hospital who stumbled into the world of property management and real estate. It all began when I started renting out my personal properties as short-term rentals. I quickly fell in love with managing properties and interacting with guests, which led me to obtain my real estate license. As my passion for this field grew, I expanded my services to manage other people's properties as well. The business became so busy that I had to reduce my hours at Duke Hospital to dedicate more time to it. I am deeply passionate about traveling and exploring different properties and areas, which fuels my love for this profession even more. I am dedicated to providing exceptional service to both property owners and guests, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience for all involved.
