Long Weekend Retreat

#ease #elegance #comfort #practicality #special touches #cleanlinessEverything about my stay allowed smoothness, comfort, ease. Simple things like comfortable chairs, all amenities in working order, cleanliness... allowed me to rest and engage in a weekend of rest and learning (at workshop), easily prepare meals, sleep well. The deck chairs are comfy and fun - they rock! The hosts strike a respectful balance of checking in and offering helping, answering questions, while not at all intrusive. Traveling solo, it was comforting as well as supportive. #biggratitude

The Best Tiny Home One Could Ask for!

Where to begin! The property is beautiful and backs up to a nature trail. There’s ample parking too! The tiny home has the greatest porch to watch the wildlife. And once you go inside, you have all the amenities one could ever ask for. The bed is super comfortable. They have chargers and a TV. They even have a kitchenette! The bathroom is also quite roomy for a tiny home. I could not ask for a sweeter host who makes sure everything is right! I will most definitely be back to stay here in February for a wedding. Overall a 10 out of 10!

Comfortable and Cozy Tiny Home

The property was quiet and peaceful and the hosts were very helpful and responsive. Close to Duke Hospital, shops and dining on Ninth Street, and downtown Durham. The neighborhood is charming and great for long walks.
