Lovely Bungalow in private , secluded neighborhood near Carrboro

* Note: Please click the "number of travelers" button when you request a stay. On the bottom it says "i am traveling with pets"--click the box if you are traveling with a dog.

Delightful space for family gatherings or small group of friends, nestled in a friendly, inclusive country neighborhood. Owner lives next door and ready to help if there is an issue but you will feel secluded in this lovingly appointed house in the woods. This is a great place to relax with family for a few days or to just stay in a truly peaceful space while you decompress with friends. Nice fenced in back yard with deck and grill will help you enjoy the outdoors with a wooded view. Front porch looks out onto the country drive and more trees. Woods right next to the house can be explored too. The house is 10 minutes to Carrboro downtown with shopping and restaurants. There is a Food Lion and a Chinese restaurant about 8 minutes away . We are close to Chapel Hill and not far from Durham, both offering more options. If you plan to stay for more than a month please contact me for special rates . Please , no loud parties, and gatherings should be limited to 10 people. You may hear professional musicians practicing down the street sometimes if you are outside but it is never loud. If you want to check in early or check out late please just book the extra date. I can not guarantee altered timetables unless you do that since it takes time to clean the house between guests and often they bookings are back to back.
Please pay the pet fee if you are bringing pets, and please not we do not allow cats.

Cute house in the woods

Great property near Carrboro but tucked in the peaceful woods, nice sized fenced yard for the dog, well equipped kitchen make this an easy spot to spend time in the area. We have stayed here before and will certainly be back!

Sweet place

The rental and the properly are located in a beautiful setting. The house was very comfortably furnished. Having flown in from the West Coast and solely being there to visit friends, we found the amenities a little lacking. Soaps, etc., in the bathroom, paper towels, glassware. I’m imagining that it must be difficult to decide what to supply as some guests might take advantage of that and bring things home with them. Overall, it is a lovely property, and the host is most accessible.

We had a great weekend stay at this cozy house in the woods. It was very peaceful and quiet, but not far from UNC (10-15min drive). Our minivan was able to handle the gravel driveway. The house and 3 bedrooms had plenty of space, and the gathering areas were the perfect size with enough seating for everyone. There is even a fenced in backyard if you bring dogs. No hand towels were placed out when we arrived, but we were able to get some from the closet. No toiletry items such a shampoo or conditioner either but we had brought our own. Veva, the host, was very responsive and helpful. I would definitely stay here again with my family!

The bungalow near Carrboro was very cute and beautifully decorated. We stayed for two weeks to visit our daughter who’s attending UNC. The property is down a gravel road that was fine unless you have heavy rain(that we did) and I was glad we had a SUV with all wheel drive. We’re not from the area and thought it was a little far from Carrboro. The house wasn’t as clean as I would have liked, with hair in the bathroom sink and crumbs in the kitchen draws. The back patio was nice as was the fenced yard. Overall it was okay. The house is very cute and well laid out, just needs a good cleaning.

Delightful home in a county setting conveniently located to area events

The whole process went smoothly, Vera was quick in her response. Check in was flawless, house was warm on winter arrival. The home is well appointed with all needs and comfortable for any length of stay. It felt like home. Quiet country setting with easy access to local events.

Stay on Esther Drive

Our stay accorded with the previous reviews: comfortable, well-stocked house, friendly and available hosts, quiet and secluded location. Esther Drive is a seven-minute drive to our grandkids in Carrboro -- the goal of our stay. It suited us very well.

Great home in the forest near Carrboro

3 couples in our 80’s enjoyed relaxing in this nice home in the forest after a reunion at UNC. Very nicely decorated with great beds and a lovely, quiet, forest setting. The home was mostly clean except for the outside and deck areas. The host, Veva, was easy to contact, very supportive and responsive to our questions. She immediately came over to help us figure out the TV:). The unsaved road was in good condition and the fenced back yard was great for our small dog. THANK YOU!
