Rent an experience not just a place to sleep

Escape the ordinary and step back in time. The uniqueness of this location will allow you to unplug from your worries completely, while remaining close to restaurants, pubs and shopping. A stay here is affording you all the conveniences of proximity to life in downtown but because you are tucked away inside of all these acres you feel like you are in your own paradise. In reality there is a supermarket two blocks away and a hospital 14 minutes away in the event of an emergency. This lush private setting on a picturesque farm is adjacent to a park with another park within a short walk. Come fish the pond or hike around the rolling pastures. The house has five bedrooms, three baths, a screen porch and alternate deck off master suite, as well as a large patio area with a fire pit. There are two king bedrooms, one queen room adjacent to a king room, perfect for families with children, and two double bedrooms, one of which is an antique four poster.. There is a pack and play for those traveling with young ones. The largest master on the first floor has a large sitting area with a queen size sofa bed and has a private bath with a 4 X 6 walk-in shower. Bedrooms equipped with TV, Wi-Fi and amenities. Sit on the screened porch and enjoy the incredible sunsets. Elon Univ18 miles, UNC Chapel Hill 15-20 minutes, Duke University is 21minutes. Ideal for a family retreat, girls get away or come work in a stress free environment in a quiet serene setting. Pack light because we have you covered. We provide high quality linens, toiletries, kitchen spices and oils as well as your morning coffee and your paper products. We aim to please.

We were down for Family Weekend at a nearby university. The home was the perfect size for our multi-generational family of 8. It has a lot of charm. I wish we had more opportunity to enjoy the property, but we were on-campus for most of our visit. Make sure to tell your spouse explicitly to continue down the drive around the first house so as not to bother the host who lives on site!

The home was perfect for my daughter’s graduation from Elon. It is about 25 minutes from campus and perfect for multiple people to stay. The beds are comfortable and bathrooms clean. Mornings were spent looking out the window at the cows, chickens and cats. Beautiful and relaxing.

Peaceful Paradise!

We stayed here with our family while visiting for family weekend at Elon University. Spacious and comfortable, and such a beautiful setting! The farm is picturesque, especially the adorable new calves. So quiet and peaceful, you can't help but but get a great night's sleep! Thank you, we will certainly return when visiting Elon in the future.

Beautiful, relaxing, impeccable vacation home

My family (including four couples and a toddler) visited the Mebane area for a wedding and decided to rent a house rather than coordinate a hotel. I'm so glad we picked this house! The property and home are beautiful, and the layout was perfect for our situation. My favorite aspect was the numerous bathrooms so there was no stress when we realized we were running late for the wedding and everyone had to get dressed at once! Waking up to rolling fields through a giant picture window was really special. What a wonderful place!

Magical Farmhouse

This is one of the nicest and peaceful properties we have had the pleasure to rent on VRBO (and that other website). The farmhouse is so comfortable, with lots of space to spread out. The screen porch overlooks the fields and grazing animals and is a great place to relax. A large patio was perfect for grilling and relaxing. The kitchen is well stocked. The sheets and linens are comfortable and the home is spotlessly clean. We came to celebrate a college graduation but will return simply to enjoy this magical property.

Incredible stay

This place is made for those that want to relax and get away from stress. The house itself is outstanding! Clean, up to date, spacious and comfortable. The location though is what makes is special. A farm (open space )close enough to Durham and Chapel Hill, and the RDU airport, but far enough out to make you feel isolated. Mebane, NC is a hidden gem. Great food and people. I wouldn’t hesitate to book this special place again. Thank you Marsha for making this available. The Texas Guys

Lovely Property

A charming farmhouse in a lovely setting! The layout of the house worked perfectly for 3 generations in town for Elon graduation. The house was extremely clean and well equipped and we appreciated the restaurant suggestions as we arrived close to dinnertime. It was unusually warm for May and we had to adjust the thermostat some to cool the upstairs. The owner & caretaker were extremely friendly and we enjoyed the fresh eggs! The landscaping is beautiful and well-maintained and we enjoyed several evenings sitting on the patio. Overalll a wonderful weekend!
