Peaceful and beautiful setting. Loved seeing the deer everyday!! Best well stocked kitchen of any place we have ever stayed. Great location close to shopping, restaurants and of course Duke University!! Great hosts. Laura checked in a couple of times to make sure everything was going okay.

We LOVED our stay and only wish that we could have stayed longer. We were two adults and 2 kids aged 5 and 7 and had plenty of space. The kitchen was very well stocked and had everything we needed for a few meals at home. It was so helpful to have laundry in the house when a trip to the Eno River quickly led to swimming in our clothes :) Laura was extremely helpful and we so appreciated the kids toys and board games. We hope to come back during a future trip. A full day swimming and relaxing by the Eno River was highlight as were the Duke Gardens. Beautiful area!

This property was well equipped with everything we needed. The property was quiet and peaceful while also having access to forested walking trails. We enjoyed the trails and also the close proximity to Duke med center and shopping. The owners are extremely helpful and we would definitely stay here again.

This was our third time staying at this property and we loved it just as much as the first time. This property has become our home away from when staying Durham.

Such a beautiful home in the woods, booked this stay for family as we were in town for a nearby festival. The hosts were so friendly and accomodating during their stay, they truly thought of everything! The nearby trails was an added bonus, we enjoyed seeing the local wildlife.

This is an exceptionally well kept and well appointed property. The images shown are true to what you will find. The sleep number beds provided us with restful nights of sleep. This was, is, and will be our place to stay in Durham.
