Here Are a Few Kind Words From Our Past Guests:

"The house was very nice. Clearly recently updated with all new furnishings. Good location close to the Duke campus. Great communication from the host." - Brian (April 2024)

"The host was very professional and kind. She communicated rapidly and was very accommodating throughout our stay. The rental unit has plenty of space and the hosts have kept it in immaculate condition. Highly recommend to others considering a stay in the region." - Matthew (April 2024)

"The property was amazing! We were there for my daughter's graduation from Duke and traveling with my elderly parents, my brother, and my college age son. The property was recently renovated and very modern. It had comfortable beds, linens, towels, toiletries, and even high-end coffee machine and tea kettle. There was a washing machine and dryer so we could do some laundry. The host even provided coffee, tea, sugar. It felt like home away from home. It was very relaxing after a busy day of graduation parties! The outdoor deck was furnished and lighted but we didn't get a chance to use it. Would definitely stay again if in town!" - Ashmita (May 2024)

☆☆ GAME ROOM☆☆
When you are ready for some healthy competition, head down to the basement to play ping pong or air hockey! There is also a sitting area with a large sectional and two side chairs. When the chaos of the game room subsides, this is another relaxing area to kick your feet up or read a book! All TVs are equipped with full cable and sports packages for your access. Additional streaming apps are downloaded so please remember to bring your passwords!

☆☆ LIVING SPACES ☆☆
We wanted to be intentional with the layout in the living rooms and common areas - each floor has it's own unique feel. Our main floor living room is the perfect place to cultivate conversation and catch up after a day exploring the city. With an open concept between the living room, kitchen, and dining area, everyone can gather together here. The second floor living room is the perfect spot to escape for some downtime. Stretch out on the gorgeous velvet sofa to watch TV, or grab a seat in the comfy leather chair with your favorite book. The basement & game room is the perfect spot to have some fun in your downtime. Catch the big game on TV, have a cozy movie night, or test out your ping pong skills!

☆☆ BEDROOMS + BATHROOMS ☆☆
Step into Southern Comfort where each bedroom exudes its own unique charm. The main floor hosts an inviting primary bedroom with a queen bed, dual nightstands, a full dresser, and a walk-in closet. The en suite bathroom boasts double vanities and a glass shower and features modern amenities like a hairdryer and complimentary toiletries

Upstairs, two additional cozy bedrooms separated by a shared living space wait to greet you. Each bedroom features its own queen bed, dual nightstands, and spacious closets. One of the bedrooms also includes a desk if you need to knock out some office work. All of our bedrooms are adorned with thoughtful touches like memory foam mattresses, luxury white linens, ample storage, and stylish decor. In addition to the separate living space on this level, there's also a full bathroom with a bathtub/shower combination.

Head down to the basement where you'll find a surprise - two additional beds! One full bed featuring a velvet headboard and adorned by gold sconces is comfy for adults and kids alike. The second full bed is a bunk that's perfect for small children. We've even included hanging space and a spot for your luggage in this area.

☆☆ KITCHEN / DINING ☆☆
The house offers a fully stocked kitchen complete with an oven, stove, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, sink, toaster, and pantry to store extra food. You will find a variety of Green Pan pots & pans as well as baking dishes and utensils to help with all your cooking needs. A spacious dining table just off of the kitchen lends plenty of room to enjoy a meal together.

☆☆COFFEE/TEA BAR☆☆
Complete with a programmable coffee pot that makes up to 12 cups, an electric kettle, and plenty of mugs for your beverage of choice. We provide coffee grounds, as well as a variety of tea bags, sweetener options, and coffee creamers.

☆☆ OUTSIDE SPACE ☆☆
Our outdoor area is located within a large backyard lined by beautiful trees. There are two decks - one off of the main living area, and one off of the basement. We've included plenty of comfortable seating to enjoy the outdoors, and there's plenty of yard for kids to run around as well!

Everything about this house was fabulous! The house itself is very spacious, and clean. The bedrooms and bathrooms are large and comfortable. Kitchen has everything you need, plus more! And I love the blue color. Communication was stellar! I had requests, and Rachel was immediately on it!! The neighborhood was easily walkable and location was very convenient to everywhere we needed to go. Two thumbs up!!!!

Great location near Duke; lovely home!
This home was perfect. My three kids and I were in town for a sports camp at Duke for the weekend. The house was 6 minutes from the campus and gave the four of us a comfortable space to spend a few days. Everything was so clean and new. The three bedrooms were all beautifully decorated and my kids enjoyed time playing air hockey and ping pong. I enjoyed my coffee in the mornings on the back porch. We went for walks and runs around the neighborhood. The home was 10 min from downtown Durham where we ate at some wonderful restaurants (go to Parker and Otis for sandwiches!). Highly recommend and a great spot when visiting Duke.
