Beautiful, spacious and historic

Our group of six had a fantastic time staying at this house for over a week. The bedrooms and beds were great, and the living areas extremely inviting and comfortable - including the porch chairs as well as the hot tub. Also, our host was incredibly accessible and accommodating. We will definitely stay here again!

Reunion Weekend

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this charming home, it had lovely gathering spaces with plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms and parking for our group that came from all directions. The location was a new area of Durham for us, but very easy to get downtown and to both of Duke's campuses. Ended up being the perfect place for us to reconnect, highly recommend!

Fantastic home!

We had a large gathering over the weekend with several teenagers, a toddler and a handful of adults. This is a great old house with plenty of space for everyone to hang out. Clean, well stocked, the owner was very helpful - what more could you want? The location was convenient and we would love to stay here again!

Fun Durham weekend with college friends

Property is in a close-to-downtown location in Durham. Convenient to everything. Although home is older, the kitchen and baths were updated/modern. Very clean and the property mgt was very responsive.

Perfect Holiday Weekend

We had the best time for our Mother/Daughter Christmas weekend. This house was so perfect, we had a hard time leaving to do activities we planned! The kitchen *swoon* was the perfect size and layout for our group of 8am ultra. We were able to cook and eat all together, making many life long memories The beds and pillows were so comfortable, I would highly recommend this home for any large party!

Space for everyone!

This is an amazing home with lots of space for everyone! We spent a lot of time in the comfortable, well-equipped kitchen. We parked our cars for the weekend and walked everywhere - home is close to wonderful restaurants, wine bar and food market.

A Victorian Mansion gem

The photos of this property don’t do it proper justice. The restoration work is exquisite. Host Dylan was top-notch, going above and beyond to help me sort out payment issues on my end. My family could not have been more happy. Highly recommended!

As wonderful as the pictures

The house compared to the pictures did not disappoint. We enjoyed the gathering space in the kitchen and outside on the patio the most. There were a couple of communication glitches (some delays in pre-check in communication and we never got check out instructions) but nothing that takes away from the overall charm, location and thoughtfulness of supplies that existed in the home.

Very Nice House

11 people & a baby. Very clean. Lots of space. We had everything we needed and were very comfortable. Master w/bath on first floor & Master w/bath on the 2nd floor were very helpful. Two additional general full baths were great. Two sets of washer & dryer were put to use. Definitely would stay again if in the area.

NC Wedding Weekend

We had a long extended family weekend in Durham which we were visiting for a family wedding in nearby Cary, NC. My wife and I, our three grown children and their spouses and one grandchild took advantage of the opportunity for a family reunion. The house is a beautifully renovated historic house in old Durham accurately described in the VRBO listing. It suited our needs perfectly. The host or his designee were easy to communicate with and responsive.
