Great location and close to UNC campus. Secluded and quiet! Perfect for those traveling with dogs as mine loved the fenced in yard. We’ll definitely come back!
Absolutely loved our stay! The location is super convenient to everything, but still very private and serene. We were visited by deer multiple times. The house well appointed and comfortable. Our host was friendly and helpful, but unobtrusive. The pizza place they recommended was fantastic! We would definitely stay here again.
Everything about my stay was perfect. Adorable, clean, comfortable home! Just as pictured. The host was wonderful, staying in touch with me throughout my stay. I highly recommend!
Great place for visiting UNC Chapel Hill. House is immaculately clean, well supplied. Quiet, wooded location, yet close to the campus and Franklin Street. Better option than a hotel!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The place is super cute and as described. The hosts had great communication and we knew we could get hold of them at any time. Definitely follow their directions for arrival as the GPS will not get you there. We did figure that out and found the place right away. It really is in a small wooded area so expect bugs as that is the location. That didn't matter at all to us because it was secluded and exactly what we were looking for. Thank you to our hosts for sharing this gem with us!
We reserved the Santorini cottage but the owners asked us to upgrade to the sprawling 4BR 4BA home. It was lovely! The land is so peaceful and the condition of the house was perfect. Very well-equipped kitchen. I can only assume that the smaller cottage was as nice as the big home on the same land. Both had fenced yards for dogs which our dog thoroughly enjoyed.
I used this place to recover from transplant surgery since I live 4 hours away. This cute little house was perfect for us. The only criticism I could relay is that there could have been extra towels, there was only 2 towels in each bathroom (half of a set) so basically a full set split between 2 bathrooms. But other than that It was great. The surrounding area was very quiet and relaxing. Fenced in yard was excellent.

Dear Larry,
Thank you for providing us with your feedback regarding the shortage of towels during your stay. We apologize for any inconvenience caused and for our oversight in not providing enough towels for your needs. If you had mentioned this issue to us during your stay, we would have been more than happy to provide you with additional towels.
We appreciate your feedback and will take steps to ensure that our guests have an adequate supply of towels in the future. Thank you for choosing to stay with us and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future.

Hello Sean,
Thank you for your review. Since no comments were provided, we can only assume your 3-star rating is related to your only message with us about internet speed, which was sent the night before checkout.
Because you didn’t report the issue earlier or provide any details after we responded, we had no opportunity to investigate or assist during your stay. We checked the head end router remotely immediately upon receiving your message and again in person after your departure—no issues were found. In fact, no other guests have reported similar concerns since we opened our home.
While we always welcome constructive feedback, we believe this concern could have been easily resolved if raised in a timely manner. We’re sorry your experience wasn’t more positive, but we stand by the quality and responsiveness of our service.
