This is a lovely, peaceful property with fantastic hosts. It's close enough to the highway to make it easy to get to several cities and the airport, but far enough away that it feels like you're way out in the countryside. We enjoyed sitting on the back deck watching the fireflies. Would absolutely stay here again!

Long Weekend

This was a beautiful, clean, quiet property. The kids loved being able to go out and watch the horses in the mornings and evenings. Everything was comfortable and clean, and there were thoughtful extra touches throughout the property. We will definitely be back if we are in Greensboro again!

PEACEFUL!!

Gwen and Dale, Two of the sweetest people on earth! Their cottage was so cozy. We didn't get to spend as much time there as we would have liked, but what time we did spend there was peaceful. We recommend you also opt for the interaction with the horses. Gwen is very knowledgeable. It was a very enjoyable visit! We will definitely book with The Owl's Nest again!

Lots more comfortable than a hotel room!

We stayed at The Owl's Nest in late June for a weekend. My sons were competing in a WNL competition in the Greensboro complex. We just don't fit well in a hotel room - the kids are too big to share a double bed and my husband and I definitely can't. The Owl's Nest had a king and two twins plus a living room to spread out in. Instead of getting 2 hotel rooms, we stayed here, gave our money to real people and were much more comfortable. We weren't there at all during the day, so can't help with that, but the location was near the interstate, which made for easy travel to the complex. Super clean and quiet!

Beautiful stay on a horse farm

Dale and Gwyn’s place was very clean and comfortable. It was a lot of fun watching the horses in the fields surrounding the house. It is so peaceful that you don’t even realize that you are so close to Greensboro and many amenities. We hope to return when visiting family in Greensboro.
