About this property

Quiet Wooded Retreat - Relax, Create, Play - Piano/Firepit/Peloton - RTP/UNC

Need to get away to relax or to finish a project? Or perhaps need some family bonding time? Our quiet creative retreat is away from the hustle and bustle of daily life but close enough that you can get back to town quickly for restaurants or work. This is our family's home away from home nestled in just under five wooded acres and we are happy to share that with you when we aren't there!

Practice piano or guitar, relax on the rocking chair front porch, sun yourself on the back deck, go for a walk in the woods, or just catch up on sleep on our comfy DreamCloud mattresses. Have a tall person or people with you? We understand! The primary bedroom has a California King and none of our beds have footboards to get in your way. All bedding is washed in hot water between guests.

We have high speed internet through Spectrum and two smart TVs (one in the living room and one in the downstairs bedroom) that can access cable and you are welcome to log in to your streaming services. Great for remote work or a comfortable stay on a business trip. Home is stocked with fun games and books and we have a drawing table and easel you are welcome to use. You are also welcome to use our Peloton bike and yoga mat/blocks when here. Need baby stuff? We can help! Check with host on booking. Small crib and high chair available upon request.

Want to cook up some delicious meals? This house has an induction range and convection oven, a small rice cooker, charcoal grill, basic spices and oils, and quality cookware. Large coffee maker in the kitchen and a small Keurig in the primary bedroom upstairs in case you need a quick cup before emerging in the morning. No pets please as we have a family member with allergies. (Check out Green Beagle Lodge in Pittsboro if you need dog boarding)

Note outdoor firepit should only be used when no burn restrictions are in effect (check with host!). Indoor fireplace should not be used at all.

Early or late checkout can usually be arranged for an additional fee. Please ask about this when booking.

Great stay!
I visited with three girlfriends and one of them had her baby along with us. The house was a great size for us each to have our own bedroom and room to spread out downstairs. Kelly was responsive and even had a crib available so we didn’t have to bring one. The setting was peaceful and beautiful, we loved seeing deer! Would highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Kelly

Host profile image
Our family enjoys cooking, eating, drinking, swimming, boating, drawing, hiking playing in the woods, making music, and making s'mores around a fire.

Why they chose this property

Our family of four lives in nearby Chapel Hill and this is our escape from the hustle of our normal lives and spend relaxing time together! We hope you will find our home as relaxing and rejuvenating as we do!

What makes this property unique

Darkness! This neighborhood doesn't allow lots of exterior lighting and the homes are far apart. On a clear night you can see many more stars than in most areas of the Triangle.
