Your Mom’s Place Downtown Greensboro - Two Private Bedrooms

Welcome to Your Mom’s – Your Cozy Greensboro Group Getaway with Insider Perks
Say hello to Your Mom’s, two private upstairs bedrooms—Grandma Dottie’s Room and Mamaw Uschie’s Room—in our shared Idlewood home, perfect for up to four guests, not the whole house! Tucked in Greensboro’s pedestrian-friendly heart, this short-term rental in Greensboro is a sustainable vacation rental gem, steps from downtown and Cone Hospital. Why stay where we live full-time downstairs? Guests love having Joy and Eric—your Greensboro insiders—right below, sharing our top picks for hangouts, eats, and shops. It’s your cozy cottage-style retreat with local expertise, no car needed—trails, buses, and bikes have you covered!
About Your Mom’s
Your Mom’s gives you two private upstairs bedrooms, connected by an en suite Jack-and-Jill bathroom shared only between them—check the labeled floor plan photo of the upstairs spaces for a clear layout! The main floor is our full-time home—no kitchen access downstairs (Joy’s baking sourdough treats in her tiny kitchen!), though we might share a meal when time allows. It’s sustainably sourced with local love from Red Collection and Reconsidered Goods, kept spotless by Simply Organized and Clean, and pest-free with Go Forth Pest Control—synthetic fragrance-free and non-corporate, with insider hosts at your service!
Key Features (Your Spaces):
Two Private Bedrooms:
Grandma Dottie’s Room: Queen-sized bed with memory foam mattress, 100% cotton linens—cozy and all yours!
Mamaw Uschie’s Room: Queen-sized bed with memory foam mattress, 100% cotton linens—private and plush!
Workspaces: Each room has a desk, lamp, and power outlets—work or dream in peace.
In-Room Eats: Each room has a dorm-sized refrigerator, microwave, and electric hot water kettle—snacks and tea stay upstairs, no full kitchen access downstairs!
En Suite Bathroom: Shared between the two rooms only, with a curved glass shower, pedestal sink, and travel-sized hair/skincare essentials—see the floor plan!
Storage: Ample closet space in each room—keep it tidy!
Shared Amenities (Limited Access):
Main Floor: Not your private space—Joy whips up baked goods in her downstairs kitchen, and Eric might play the baby grand piano (request classical or yacht rock anytime!). We’re open to sharing the dining table if you’d rather eat there than in your rooms, and might invite you for a meal when schedules sync.
Insider Access: We’re your Greensboro gurus downstairs—ask us anything about local spots to hang out, eat, or shop!
Side Porch & Yard: Rock away in the chairs on the side porch facing Grayland St. where you park, and roam the side yard—your outdoor chill spots!
Backyard Note: The fenced backyard is our private retreat—Eric and Joy’s escape—but we occasionally invite guests for a bonfire or drinks on the back deck when the mood strikes (not for regular guest use, though!).
Laundry: For 30+ day stays, one load per week per room in our downstairs washer/dryer with your unscented detergent or our eco-friendly soap sheets—ask us!
