Great spot, thank you. Downstairs is musty for anyone that is sensitive to that. Otherwise, it was great.

Great location, great communication, large house

This house is very centrally located in CH and is across the street from a great cafe/coffee shop (Coco). It is a large house with plenty of parking and room to spread out. Communication was super fast and helpful. It is a house that has been lived in quite a bit with wear and tear around the edges. But, for a quick stay it functions quite well for a group.

Great weekend stay for our group

We really enjoyed the house during our visit to Chapel Hill. The theee main bedrooms provided the adult couples a comfortable place to sleep while the lower level rooms and rec room were ideal for the teens. Located very close to INC as well as retail stores and restaurants made our weekend even better. Hosts were very thorough with the check-in details and responsive to a text question I sent the second day.

Great location

Great location, comfortable space and good amenities for 7-8 adults and family gatherings. Enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property! Wonderful to have the hot tub during the cold snap. Steps to the entry were a bit difficult for elderly visitors, and the downstairs needed a space heater during the very cold weather.

Convenient spot for a large group

Would highly recommend this rental! We were a large group, but had plenty of space for everyone to be comfortable. This location is great for vacationing, as it’s near restaurants, hikes, UNC, malls, grocery stores, the airport, and lots more. And everything was decorated in a very pleasant style.
