Our favorite pre-vacation

Our family gathers in Durham for several days to see old friends before we leave for the beach. This is our absolute favorite place to spend these days. The beautiful inside and outside areas are all so lovely, and occasionally some have made the trek down to the Eno River. This year is perhaps the 5th time we have stayed here!

Great place

Quiet neighborhood. We went to the Life and Science Museum and it was the perfect location. Great for kids and infants. Nothing laying around that was breakable for the baby to grab. The host was helpful. Porch was really peaceful.

House near Eno River trails

This is a lovely and spacious house. We loved being within a block of hiking trails which was great for exercise with our dog. The house was well supplied with everything needed. The wooded back yard is exceptional with a lovely deck, screen porch, pond and private walking trail. Very quiet and we slept very well. Wood floors in bedroom area creak loudly. Front steps are steep and hard to navigate when carrying things in and out.

Perfect place for a family gathering.

This property was very well stocked for our family’s Thanksgiving meal. We loved the fact that it backed on the Eno River Park and all enjoyed a few hikes on the trails.

A lovely spot for nature lovers

We really enjoyed staying right on the edge of Eno River State Park. We used the fire pit nightly and enjoyed being able to walk down to the river trail from the neighborhood. We even saw a huge family of deer in the back area.

Great property!

This was a really great find for our stay in Durham! The property was beautiful and in a nice quiet neighborhood. We left bed the back deck and porch area and spent most of our evenings back there. The home was really spacious and comfortable which allowed our large family to spread out and have some space. There were a couple of things worth noting which other reviewers have brought up as well. First, the floors in the house were creaky especially in the master bedroom. It's just the age of the home but I would recommend bringing earplugs since it could be heard throughout the first floor. Also, the kitchen was really nice but lacked enough glasses and dishes for our crew. They probably just got broken and tossed over the years so a dish/glass/silverware refresh should be considered.Overall this property was excellent and I would highly recommend it!
