Lovely spot, quiet and cool in the shade. Really enjoyed the screen deck with the water feature. Owner was prompt clear and kind - what more could you ask? Hope to return!
Good place. Kitchen had lots of cooking utensils which was nice. Also lots of bath towels and trash bags, dishwasher soap, paper towels which makes it nice for our stayCommunication was great neighborhood is quiet
Everything was great. Less than 1/4 mile hike to the Eno trail and we had a lovely staycation with some quality relaxing time. Would definitely recommend this stay. Location is absolutely perfect!
Our family gathers in Durham for several days to see old friends before we leave for the beach. This is our absolute favorite place to spend these days. The beautiful inside and outside areas are all so lovely, and occasionally some have made the trek down to the Eno River. This year is perhaps the 5th time we have stayed here!
Quiet neighborhood. We went to the Life and Science Museum and it was the perfect location. Great for kids and infants. Nothing laying around that was breakable for the baby to grab. The host was helpful. Porch was really peaceful.
Homey home that backs up to the Eco River. Hiking along the river was a favorite activity along with hanging out in the beautiful backyard. It was the perfect place for a family reunion!
This is a lovely and spacious house. We loved being within a block of hiking trails which was great for exercise with our dog. The house was well supplied with everything needed. The wooded back yard is exceptional with a lovely deck, screen porch, pond and private walking trail. Very quiet and we slept very well. Wood floors in bedroom area creak loudly. Front steps are steep and hard to navigate when carrying things in and out.
We had a great time staying at this very comfortable home. Fabulous bed linens and fully stocked kitchen made for a luxurious stay. Plus plenty of run to spread out. Definitely recommend the
We had an excellent stay with our group! Our host, Lu, was fantastic. The home was clean and well-equipped. The neighborhood and yard were beautiful. We would highly-recommend this fabulous property for your stay!
We had a stay in this cozy house. Loved having first floor bedrooms and safety features w my aging parent. Convenient to all we wanted. Host was close by and responsive and friendly. Lots of outdoor spaces to chill and relax overlooking the woods!
The house was very spacious and clean. It had all the amenities as described. My family really enjoyed it and we plan on renting it again in the near future.
This property was very well stocked for our family’s Thanksgiving meal. We loved the fact that it backed on the Eno River Park and all enjoyed a few hikes on the trails.
Lovely home in Durham, NC. with beautiful landscaped outside area. Sister lives in Chapel Hill and was only about a 20-minute drive. Enjoyed the visits from the neighborhood cats.
