We had a wonderful stay at the tiny treehouse. It is a wonderful location with easy quick access to Duke and Durham. The place was very clean and the host Ty was so accommodating. In fact there was an unexpected running race the morning of our departure which prevented us from accessing the tiny treehouse and Ty offered to shuttle us so we were able to get our rental car and make it to the airport on time. We highly recommend this property and its wonderful hosts.
