Rented this property for myself and my two kids while visiting family in town. House was well stocked with kitchen items and necessities. Garden area pretty but not well represented in photos. I had to message host for arrival and departure instructions but he responded promptly.

It's old, and not updated. The lighting is dim because they have not updated the electrical. Lots of extension cords and still the little cheap lamps don't give. The place smells of mold. The appliances are dated, no garbage disposal. Also, there is no hot tub but it was listed on the property details. When I asked the contact person about it, he denied it was part of the property amenities; then he removed the hot tub from the listing, demanding that I "prove" it was there. Then, vver the course of the chat session, he finally said it was an imported listing. I'm working with VRBO to resolve and see about some kind of refund. You have to park outside "the gate," and that makes it a distance to go in and out of the house with bags and such. Beds are old, only queen sizes. There are 1.5 baths, and the 1 shower over the 1 bathtub had some kind of makeshift extender hose. In the main living area, there's a chair that's labeled "art don't sit," and the dining table in the kitchen is a built in. It was likely a nice house at one point, it could be nice now if they put some bit of money in it to upgrade it, but I won't book it again. I was hoping it would be a place I could return to when I come to the area.

We were in Chapel Hill for a family wedding and we're so pleased with our stay at this lovely home set in a beautiful garden. The home is fully equipped, nicely furnished and so convenient to everything. The host was a pleasure to work with and very responsive. We often rent VRBO and this was among our most favorite stays! Five stars!
