Lovely retreat in a serene neighborhood

My husband and extended family stayed at this property for a family reunion in Durham. Very clean and spacious house, and loved that both coffee and a new bottle of olive oil were provided for our stay. The neighborhood is quiet, wooded and very serene. It was a nice retreat after each day of festivities with the larger family.A couple of minor suggestions to get to 5 stars: 1. Only one room had a few clothes hangers. Recommend adding clothes hangers to all the bedroom closets. 2. None of the bathrooms are accessible, so that was a minor challenge with an elderly person in our party. The tubs are also very slippery. Maybe provide a mat?3. Provide hair dryers in the bathrooms.

Wonderful Stay

We handle events every year with Duke University and this home was everything and then some. My staff and I were very comfortable in this home - plenty of room to spread out. Quick drive to anything you could need or want.

Wonderful

This home had plenty of space for the 12 of us. Plenty of linens, and cooking items. Communication from Stephanie and Amy was quick and helpful. We loved it and would definitely stay here again. Just minutes from Duke.

December Wedding

We were in town for a wedding and needed a place to stay for a few days. This house was perfect. Large, light filled, comfortable, and they accepted my dog. Everywhere we needed to go was within 15 minutes. Would definitely stay again if ever needed.
