We had a wonderful stay and would definitely book again. Alexis was a fantastic host—kind, responsive, and very attentive. He made himself available whenever we needed anything and truly ensured we were comfortable throughout our stay.The home was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully stocked. The beds were very comfortable, and we appreciated the added touches like shampoo, conditioner, body wash in both bathrooms, and plenty of clean towels.It’s also a great place for dog owners. Alexis has a large, very friendly dog, which made the space feel welcoming and accommodating for pets.Overall, a great experience with a host who genuinely cares about his guests.

Very private considering its location in Durham which is a very nice perk. Beautiful and clean home with nice coffee bar and welcome package. Hot tub was very enjoyable with the Bluetooth speaker nearby for music. Will love to return if I’m ever back in the area- highly recommended!
