About this property

Privacy And Proximity

Access to everything yet feels far from it. Enjoy the main level of our beautiful home! A hop, skip and a jump to Hanes Mall, 5 star restaurants, grocery stores, Wake Forest University, Baptist and Forsyth Medical Centers and so much more! Beautiful one story home located in the Sherwood Forest community. No better spot for your peaceful and quiet enjoyment! I am sometimes on the property during your visit, since I have a lower level apartment. There are separate entrances and parking areas so your experience is completely private, but I'm likely around if there is anything you may need during your stay. No events or large gatherings are permitted. The home is in a quiet neighborhood and is intended solely for the number of guests listed in your booking. Thank you and I look forward to hosting your small group or family!

Nephew's weddings weekend

Evan's home was perfect for our family. The house was exactly as described and very comfortable for all our needs. Evan left us some breakfast goodies too. The house was clean and equipped, and very convenient to our destinations. Any questions we asked, Evan answered quickly and completely. We highly recommend this home for your stay.

Sweet Home Winston-Salem

We really enjoyed this property, it was spacious, nicely furnished, had a well stocked kitchen, lovely master bedroom and interesting addition room which we really loved. The back deck is where we spent most of our time though, really comfy seating and nice views. We watched hawks flying around the cell tower near by and enjoyed it immensely. We highly recommend.

Family Visit

We had a group of 4 adults and 3 teenagers visiting Winston Salem for the Thanksgiving holiday. This property fit everyone comfortably and was in an ideal location for us. We were a short 5 minute walk to my brothers house, which is where we spent most of our time while in town. The property owner was very responsive to all of my questions leading up to our stay. Once we arrived, everything ran smoothly. All in all it was a great stay!

Absolutely wonderful

My family and I really enjoyed our stay. The house looks small from the outside but once you enter it is surprisingly huge. Each room was cozy and homey, which we really enjoyed. The beds were comfy and my aunt fell in love with a couch that was in one of the rooms because it was so comfy. She said that every time she sat on the couch she fell asleep and it was wonderful. The location was super close to everyone we came to see. Definitely a place we'll keep in mind if we come back down again. Just a wonder place.

Spacious and Accommodating

The house is bigger than it appears from the outside! 5 bedrooms AND 2 extra pull out couches in the living area. It has this adorable hanging bed/swing on the porch with fun twinkle lights. There is a basement (it's off limits), but even without using the basement there was more than enough space for our large group. The house is in a sweet neighborhood, close to downtown Winston Salem. The host was very accommodating and even provided some staple items in the fridge! Would certainly recommend!

Responsive Owner, Home Needs TLC

The home was a good size for our 2 families of 4. However we would unfortunately not stay again. There were several items that need attention - sheets on 2 of the beds had holes, washcloths should be replaced, vacuum did not work, garbage disposal didn’t work, couches need to be cleaned, washer was stuck on quick wash, dryer had a loud noise. Some of these issues could have been okay if we knew up front. We really appreciated how responsive the owner was to the issues we had.

Great Spot to use as a "Home-Away-from-Home Base"

The house itself is as described on the website. It was wonderful to have 5 bedrooms (although we only ended up using 4). There was plenty of space for us to play games -- we actually sat around the breakfast bar most of the times we were at the house and never even used the dining table! Our host, Evan, was very responsive even though he was out of the country during our visit. We actually used the home more as a 'home base' while we were on a Girls Weekend (mom and 1 daughter + 4 daughters-in-law) and most activities were outside the home. However, the home was central to all we did and we were never more than 10-12 minutes away from any destination. Thanks, Evan, for sharing your home with us!

Not a place I would stay again

the home was in a good area but the inside was a hot mess. the front door automated lock never wanted to work properly. they only had 4 tiny towels and two of them had 2 large towels in the center. the two bedrooms at the end of the hallways would not lock or stay closed so we had to prop something in front of them every night. the owner was responsive when I asked for a key but the house needs some updates.

Deceptively spacious, yet warm and welcoming

Our family enjoyed a special gathering at Sharlene & Evan's home in Winston-Salem. Although the home looks modest and small from the street, it truly has 5 main level bedrooms, comfortably accommodates 10, and has great common spaces to share special times together. Beds and linens were comfortable and high quality, and there were plenty of towels and paper products. The kitchen is well-equipped (although we did ask one of our late arrivals to bring a blender), and the cute little coffee bar was enjoyed by all. It was great to have some basics provided (i.e. olive oil, seasonings, basic condiments, coffee) because our group cooked every meal. The daybed swing on the back porch was a huge hit with our crew. Even though it was rainy and cold, several of us wrapped up in one of the soft, fluffy blankets and curled up for comfy naps. At night, the twinkly lights and wind chimes made for a great getaway for those who wanted to stay up for late night conversations. Now that we've been here, I can say that the descriptor --- Privacy and Proximity --- totally applies. The house is in a neat, quiet neighborhood but with plenty of shopping, restaurants and activities within just a few minutes. Overall, we cannot recommend this property enough, and I suspect we'll be renting it again some time in the future since it can meet the needs of several different groups. Thanks again, Sharlene & Evan!

We were honored to have Ginny and her family stay at our house. They took great care of our home and left it in exactly the same state of cleanliness as they had found it. It was a very important time for Ginny and her family and we could not be more moved to know they chose our home to share that time. We want to thank them from the bottom of our hearts and wish them all the very happiest of times. All the very best from Sharlene and Evan

This was the absolute perfect house! The decorations to the set up and the layout were amazing. The back porch is simply a dream and we enjoyed relaxing on it both nights. If you want a great space that is clean and enjoyable this is your place. Wonderful host and kept in touch as needed.

Convenient for Wake Forest events

Nice place. Quiet neighborhood.. The Master suite was very nice and kitchen well-appointed. We appreciated some of the staples like eggs and milk that were provided The back porch was a great place to sit out and visit, especially with the hanging bed. The owner was available but not intrusive. We’ve already booked again for another Wake Forest occasion.

Great friends reunion

House was perfect for a reunion of my friend and me with families/ kids. Clean, spacious, more than enough sleeping room (we had 4 kids and 3 adults), and quiet spaces to tuck away and read or watch tv. We ventured to pilot mountain for the day and access was an easy 30 minute drive. House had all the necessary amenities - WI-FI, laundry, kitchen w all necessities. Evan welcomed us w a personalized greeting. Neighborhood felt very safe for my wife and I to take an evening stroll. Grocery and gas are within 5 minutes. Definitely made for a great weekend away. Thanks again, Evan!
