Our family was in town for a soccer tournament and stayed at this beautiful home. Would absolutely stay again when we come back next year! Home is well set up and the kids loved the upstairs space. Location is excellent with easy drive to Southpoint, RDU, Chapel Hill, Durham and Cary. Highly recommend!

Wonderful

Beautiful home. It was as described on line. Shopping and dining literally within walking distance. Very convenient location to highways etc. I would definitely recommend it to anyone. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

Second time here, even better!

I rented this home again after a wonderful stay last year. It was even better this year! More beds were added and there were several other upgrades in the home. The owner was great, as always. The location is incredible! The cleanliness, modern appliances (including the Nespresso machine), several private bedrooms/bathrooms, theater room, game room, and screened in patio were all awesome for entertaining our large family! We’ll be back… for a third time. :)
