Our favorite pre-vacation

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!

Great place

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.

House near Eno River trails

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.
