Fearrington village and Chapel Hill are just 20 min up the road, and 30 min to the popular Triangle. Jordan Lake recreation area is a short 15 min away and has beaches and hiking trails, as well as boat launches and great fishing.

We had a lovely time and the home was very nice. The only criticism is that the furniture in the living area is not very comfortable for lounging. We were there for a girls retreat with a lot of “catching up” to do and the home was otherwise perfect! The beds are comfortable. Everything was clean. We enjoyed exploring the decor! Would love to go shopping with you sometime!Thank you!

This has been the nicest VRBO we have ever stayed in. Host was amazingly receptive ( non visible but totally available). The location is perfect for all things Pittsboro. Easy access to airport. But the house was so charming and well stocked. The details provided everything we needed. If you’re ever selling, give us a call. We may want to purchase furnished. I thought I was spending the weekend at a friend home. Thank you!!!!!

Sister Weekend

Two of my sisters and I enjoyed a most relaxing and quiet long weekend together. We have Sister Weekends yearly and this was one of the best short term rentals ever. We strolled the quiet neighborhood and explored the old cemetery across the street. We browsed the shops on Hillsboro St. and ate at a few local restaurants. Our host Lindsay was absolutely percent the best. We could not think of one single thing we needed that wasn’t provided. Five stars all the way.

Senior Graduation Trip

We took our grandson and his best friend to the US OPEN Golf Tournament at Pinehurst and stayed here in Pittsboro. We had a lovely stay at a lovely property. Very well appointed with everything you need for cooking and a comfortable stay. The cottage was exceptionally clean and comfortable and located in a very quiet area. We were very close to restaurants and a grocery store and anything else we needed. The host, Lindsay, communicated with us from the time we booked until after we departed. She was kind, knowledgeable and helpful with all our questions and requests. She even provided farm fresh eggs for our breakfasts. We really enjoyed our stay and I wish we could have stayed longer just to enjoy the cottage and the town of Pittsborro. I highly recommend this property!

Don’t Miss this Gem!

I cannot say enough great things about this cute little cottage! Everything was absolutely perfect. All instructions were clear, communication was excellent and the added bonus of farm fresh eggs was the best! Plenty of room for our family to be together. Located within walking distance of Havoc brewery, S/T Soda Shop (for a great lunch and old fashioned ice cream) and several other cute shops. This place was complete with all the extras you could ask for, great yard to visit or play, equipped kitchen, laundry unit, and great front porch for morning coffee. Will definitely stay there every time I’m in town.

Perfection

Weekend trip to the area. This home was perfect. Located off the road in a woodsy setting, close to downtown with the quaint little shops and restaurants, within 20 minutes of Chapel Hill and 30 to 40 minutes from the Raleigh airport. The home is extremely clean and set up with everything. You need all the way down to Farm fresh eggs for breakfast and a variety of coffees. The host is accommodating and always accessible but everything exceeded our expectations and we had no reason to bother her. Thank you for your hospitality.
