Four co-workers attending a conference by the convention center stayed for half the cost of rooms in the attached hotel. Convenient location within 7 minutes of the convention center and restaurants.

Central getaway
We were in town for a graduation and were able to comfortably have grandparents and aunts/uncles/cousins stay all together in this house. It was such a great family time! The house is also gorgeous!! Our favorite part was being so close that we were able to walk over to the tobacco campus/Durham bulls stadium. I hate we didn’t discover it until graduation because we would absolutely stay here again. If you have little kids, be mindful of the road since the house sits right on it. Some of the cars do drive a little fast.

Plenty of space to spread out
Very new property with lots of bedrooms and bathrooms for our large family. Close to downtown Durham and restaurants. We also enjoyed BBQ each night on the back porch. Plenty of extra towels for everyone (6) on a 5 night stay. Quick responses from the host.
