The house was absolutely lovely to stay in. I felt right at home. It was comfortable, chic and spacious. It's in a very nice neighborhood, and communication with the owners was a breeze. They were quick to respond to any questions or changes. I will definitely save them for future stays!

Nice modern house

We had no issues with our stay. We were there for a few days to visit colleges so it was perfect for our needs. The house was very clean. It has obviously been recently renovated as everything looked nice and new. The outdoor area needs some cleaning or some towels to use the seats.

Convenient, Clean and Comfortable

We had a wonderful stay. We were in Durham for family weekend at Duke. The house was beautiful, clean, great location and very comfortable. It’s only 3.5 miles from Duke and very close to all the great restaurants and shopping in Durham as well. We are looking forward to hopefully booking again when we come back as a family. Thank you!

Modern flare in Durham, was all it shows and more. Family who visited was impressed.

Property was clean with modern conveniences and in a central location in Durham. The mini master bedroom even had USB hookup from the lamp. Each bedroom had a flat screen TV, 2 of the 3 bedrooms had dressers for cclothing. Area was quietand mostly without disturbance.

Comfortable Stay

We stayed for a few days after losing power and water from Hurricane Helene in our hometown. The house is newly remodeled, extremely clean and very comfortable. We were basically just there to catch up on work and the Internet/Wi-Fi was great. We did not really use the outdoor areas or explore the surrounding neighborhood, but we were very comfortable in the house. My only feedback would be that more cooking utensils would be nice and better hangers in the closets.

Enjoyable stay. Exceeded expectations. Lovely property.

Excellent renovation, and well appointed. Very, very clean. A binder with operating instructions for TV would have been helpful. We could only watch net flix. Bugs and mosquitos in trash bins. Our first impression when we backed into the driveway. perhaps a different location? not so close to front door? Shower in master needs repair. turns off when adjusting temp. refrigerator making growling noise. needs attention. we hope to be your guest in the future.
