This is such a delightful and unique home! It’s close to downtown, which is nice. It’s quiet. The house is spotless, the beds comfortable, and the kitchen well stocked. We would enjoy staying again. There is easy parking in front of the house. The hosts are responsive and helpful.

A cute little cottage, clean, neat, and well stocked. This house was close to my daughter so we could walk to her house. Andrea was great to work with. When we realized we needed to stay for a few more days and the house we rented was not available, Andrea helped me find another rental. She was great to work with and very responsive and we definitely rent again.

Absolutely Adorable

This property is awesome. The location was just perfect as we were there for a college visit at Duke for my son and it was so close to everything. Andrea was great, very responsive and extremely helpful. Truly felt like a home away from home; so quaint and comfortable. Loved it!

Cozy little house!

This little house is just as described…cute and quirky but super cozy! Extremely clean with very comfortable master bed. Great little porch and fenced in yard for our small dogs. House had everything we needed. We loved just thinking about the history of what this house had to say with the current layout and what it probably started out as. Host was very responsive and checkin and checkout was a breeze. Loved our stay!!

Quirky and chic

Beautifully decorated, modern yet comfortable furnishings, thoughtful toiletries made our stay at the quirky cottage really nice. The deck was a nice sunny spot to relax, have our morning coffee , and watch birds. Fenced in yard was good for our dog to roam around - although we kept an eye on her. Neighborhood is quiet and nice to walk around - there is a park nearby as well.

Great neighborhood near everything

Charming cottage, very comfortable. Impeccably cleaned. Excellent location. Gorgeous yard. We sat on the porch at night and listened to a symphony of birds, frogs, and a big owl in a tree across the street. We stayed with our two dogs and they were happy. Note that the fence is a split rail, so for pets they will need to stay on a leash in the yard. Hosts were easy to contact and very knowledgeable about the area. Property is described as quirky. Don’t be dissuaded. The only thing we saw was that there are small elevation changes between some rooms and a bigger change to get into the bathroom with the large tub off the utility room. This may be a problem for people with significant mobility issues. Otherwise, this is a wonderful and well stocked place. They even had a dog bed and ball for us in the living room. I would definitely Italy stay here or with this host again.

About the host

Hosted by Andrea Douglass

Host profile image
I am a pharmacist at Duke Hospital who stumbled into the world of property management and real estate. It all began when I started renting out my personal properties as short-term rentals. I quickly fell in love with managing properties and interacting with guests, which led me to obtain my real estate license. As my passion for this field grew, I expanded my services to manage other people's properties as well. The business became so busy that I had to reduce my hours at Duke Hospital to dedicate more time to it. I am deeply passionate about traveling and exploring different properties and areas, which fuels my love for this profession even more. I am dedicated to providing exceptional service to both property owners and guests, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience for all involved.
