8 / 10Excellent·Jan 2026
The house was wonderful. Great attention to detail, beautiful, and very comfortable. It was located in a modest, old community, but we felt very safe. There was another, seemingly identical, house going up next door, and the construction noise was inconvenient since I was there for a medical procedure. Otherwise, the house was perfect.

Wonderful property. Clean and well-maintained in a great location. Communication with owner was easy. No complaints whatsoever. We definitely rebook in the future.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
The house is very well done, obviously newly remodeled or entirely new. The kitchen, dining and main living area are open and comfortable with plenty of light, great seating, smart TV, and a nice view of the cute backyard. Very well supplied including spices, cooking oils, protein bars, plenty of coffee, expresso, creamer, sweeteners and tea - stuff you need but don't really want to buy. Great ice maker and autofill water! Lots of fun extras - loved the chess board, games, record player and piano. They were played every evening. Beds are comfortable with plenty of pillows and blankets. Overall the place has just about everything you need along with nice extras like laundry detergent, fabric softener, dryer balls, dog bed/bowls/treats, propane gas, bug spray, shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, even razors and toothbrushes if you forget yours. Very well thought out with a lot of attention to what guests might need. Check-in and out was a breeze. Very detailed instructions were provided and helpful. Communication was superb. Jill was immediately available for a few small issues we had and handled them superbly. Great location just a short 5-10min drive from downtown, 5min from Duke, 20min from RDU, 25min to Chapel Hill. Only little issue we had was the neighborhood - its an older area which is being rejuvenated - so not really walkable anywhere but given the location, it is an easy drive and parking was easy and cheap everywhere so it wasn't really a big issue.
