Weekend retreat

Well appointed bungalow in a cute burrow of Durham. The beds were very comfortable as were the couches. I appreciated the abundance and variety of K-cup pods for the Keurig and other kitchen amenities. The back yard is very spacious and plenty of seating. About 5 minutes from downtown Durham and we enjoyed watching the NCAA games at the sports bar Tobacco Road which also overlooked the Durham Bulls baseball stadium. Host was very responsive and helpful!
