About this property

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Tranquility Retreat - Serene Setting

Welcome to Tranquility, a studio apt. with Tesla EV charging station. Our cozy (perfect for 1-2 guests), well appointed studio is located above a detached garage (with an ultra quiet garage opener) w/separate entrance on the same property as our single family home in Old Irving Park in Greensboro. Enjoy complete privacy in a safe, quiet, wooded setting and still be close to restaurants and shopping. Ample parking in the driveway or on the street. We're pet friendly too!

Filled with contemporary original art (by the host and for sale), Tranquility offers a comfortable queen sized bed with high quality linens and towels. Star gaze from bed through the sky light above or even bird watch year round. Enjoy our Nespresso coffee maker (coffee on the porch or at the picnic table anyone?). To make your stay feel like home, there’s also a toaster, microwave and mini fridge. Assorted snacks, wine and craft beer is provided for your comfort at cost. Roku enabled TV and WiFi is available.

We love pets and most are welcome. There is a one-time $30 charge per stay for your furry family member. We only ask our guests to keep pets off the bed or couch. We realize this may be difficult but it really helps with keeping the furnishings cleaner and in overall better condition. We hope our guests understand.

Our guests can access the property by way of a lighted stone walking path. Access includes use of an outdoor picnic table in a private wooded setting.

We are often home and available to address guest questions. We also communicate via text or phone call.

Our neighborhood is safe, quiet and pretty! We are fortunate to enjoy living on a dead-end street so car traffic is very limited. Guests are a short walk or drive to several grocery stores (Harris Teeter, Fresh Market, Whole Foods) and local farmers markets, great restaurants and beautiful parks. Downtown Greensboro is just a short 10 minute drive and is home to the International Civil Rights Museum, local shops, bars and restaurants. We are also close to UNCG, North Carolina A&T University, the Greensboro Science Center, Greensboro Colliseum and the Tanger Center.

Come stay with us for all the comforts of home and experience a unique, clean, safe, non-hotel stay.

Just read our reviews. They speak for themselves.

Get around by private car, walking or Uber / Lift.

We can guide you to the best restaurants in town and offer suggestions on things to do. We’ve also been known to help our guests (who are staying with us prior to a relocation) find a great neighborhood to make Greensboro their forever home.
No weapons allowed on the property. No smoking or vaping.

There is a $30/stay fee for pets.
The apartment is air-conditioned and has an array of amenities, including a balcony, a microwave, and a coffee maker. Other standard amenities include a hair dryer, an ironing board, and a desk.

Urban respite

This was my second stay at this property. It was just as good as I remembered. Everything I needed for a two day stay for work. Coffee in the mornings, wine in the evenings on the little porch after a nice walk through the neighborhood. It was delightful, perfect for one person! And the kitty cat was an added bonus!

Truly a little slice of tranquility.

Hard to describe how simply wonderful and peaceful this property is. From the beautiful setting in nature to the sweet, thoughtful and whimsical touches to the porch where you can watch the dawn listening to the birds welcome the day to windows that make you feel like you are in a treehouse, this lovely little studio is hard to top🌿 The thoughtful owners make communication a breeze. You’ll see wonderful displays of the owner’s beautiful art work as well. If you are looking for an incredibly peaceful place to rest, read, travel from, and lay your head at night you won’t find better!

Cozy studio, quiet neighborhood, very peaceful

The studio was lovely and clean, in a very private location with access to a quiet garden / picnic table. The neighborhood was quiet and safe but with quick access to great restaurants and nearby major roads. Check in was easy and hosts were informative and responsive. Highly recommend!

Peaceful Retreat

This studio garage apartment was perfect for a two-night stay in Greensboro for work. It is small but well-equipped, beautifully decorated amd clean. The bed was very comfortable and I loved the skylight above the bed. It is in a nice quiet neighborhood, great for walking, and close to restauarants and parks. The backyward was like a small oasis in the middle of the city and I enjoyed sitting out on the small porch in the evenings. My only suggestion is to have night lights in the apartment. I have already booked another stay!
