This is a wonderfully charming home located a hop, skip and a jump from the UNC Campus and Franklin Street.
It is an older home with character, well decorated and equipped.
It's a little odd in that the owners also live there or have this as their second home. Personal items, including food items are everywhere. We have never stayed in an occupied home so personally it was a bit uncomfortable.
Having said that though, there is also plenty of room to unpack and spread out. It was not bothersome just odd for our group.
The location is perfect for UNC visitors. Walkers can make a jaunt to the campus or Franklin Street with ease. Traffic can be a bit heavy on the main road during the day so traffic noise was apparent but at night it was not an issue.
If you are not from the Carolina's the driveway will make you pause. It is steep as the house in on a hill. Locals will not see it as an issue. We did have an elderly person with us that needed a hand navigating the drive and outside stairs but it is totally doable.
We were a group of seven adults and the home was comfortable and spacious for us. I would caution people with very young children to be aware that the home is decorated with many fragile items.
Our only complaint is that the outdoor furniture was not useable, it was very worn and dirty. It was not as pictured in the description. There was an outdoor table that was ok but the rest we could not use.
Overall, we would visit the home again.

The house was very charming & welcoming. Location was convenient to UNC and Chapel Hill activities. House was clean. Lock box made access easy. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay at Heel House again. Future travelers should note the following. House is lived in by owners so clothes, food, toiletries, etc. are all in the house. Master bed is very soft. Driveway is step and the parking spot is loose stone. Guesthouse is attached to the house.

Great around break in Chapel Hill
The Heel House was a perfect spring break getaway! Our daughter is a student athlete at UNC and her training schedule didn’t allow her to come home for break. The house was amply supplied with all we needed to bring a bit of home to her. You cannot beat the location if your plans take you to UNC. I would definitely book this property again!

TarHeel birthday weekend
What a great weekend in a beautiful home in Chapel Hill! We loved the TarHeel House! As season ticket holders to all UNC games, we are used to hustling to the car, and battling the traffic to get home. How nice to meander to the bars after the game, like students! Hahaha!! We couldn’t have picked a better home, location, and hosts for our game day weekend. Beautiful property! Warm, inviting, lovely decor, and stocked with anything and everything! Stephanie is the most gracious of hosts! She’ll do anything to make your stay perfect. I’m so glad we chose this rental, and hope to return! Thanks for making it special!

The Perfect House
We loved staying here while in town for a Celebration of Life. It was cozy and beautifully decorated. As a native Chapel Hillian who now lives in Texas I appreciated the decor and the Carolina vibe as well. The hosts were extremely thoughtful to us as well. We just loved it and would highly recommend it to anyone coming to town for a game or family weekend or any reason whatsoever really. It’s a perfect spot.

The Heel House could not have been a better place for my family to stay! My son was getting married at The Fearrington and the location was perfect! Stephanie and Adam left kind notes and a some extra special touches for the bride and groom that were greatly appreciated. If I could give The Heel House 10 stars I would. Thank you Stephanie and Adam for being fantastics hosts.

Family UNC vs Clemson Weekend
Our family of 8 from NJ, SC and GA gathered for a fun-filled weekend to celebrate our daughter’s senior year at UNC. House was divided between Heels and Tigers, but the Heel House was the perfect place for us to call home for 2 days! We made the 15 min. walk to Late Night with Roy at Dean Smith Center and 25 minute walk back from Kenan Stadium.
Stephanie made us feel right at home at the Heel House and we are so grateful for her hospitality and special touches. Highly recommend this home for a group visiting UNC for the weekend!

Great weekend in Chapel Hill
6 adults rented this house during a football weekend this fall. The location of this house was such that you can easily walk to campus while still enjoying a quiet neighborhood. The house was very clean and well appointed. Communication from the owners was top notch. We will be back for our next visit to Chapel Hill.

Simply Perfect
Our family rented this lovely home while our two oldest kids attended a weeklong camp at the University of North Carolina. The location is amazing (right across the street from UNC) and the owners could not have been friendlier or more helpful. I would recommend the Heel House to anyone who wants to enjoy all that Chapel Hill has to offer.
