About the host

Host profile image
Since retirement, I'm aspiring to become a world traveler and you can help me do it! I need someone who loves cats to care for my 2 sweet black kitties while I'm traveling. I've kept the pricing really low so that you can afford to be here, enjoy this wonderful home, and care for my kitties while I'm away.

Why they chose this property

If you like easy accessibility to this wonderful area of the country, a great university town, and lots of privacy and easy comfort, my home is for you! You'll be 7 miles outside of Chapel Hill and Carrboro and within easy drives of Raleigh, Durham and Greensboro. Smaller local towns of Hillsborough, Saxapahaw and Pittsboro are also great for exploring. You'll need a car for your transportation.

What makes this property unique

Peace and quiet retreat with all the basic amenities you'd expect -- nothing fancy - but very liveable and pleasant. House was newly built 15 years ago. Large back deck, outdoor swing and sitting area with walks along a wet weather creek and the Haw River. close by. Quiet, private, safe country living out in the woods. A great retreat!
