About this property

Trinity Park Retreat

Private spacious apt in renovated 1913 home in Historic Trinity Park

* Within blocks of theaters, restaurants, Duke campus & much more!

* Large rooms & closets, high ceilings, lots of light (w/option to add bed for 2 more guests)

* Full kitchen (recently updated), coffee included

* Access to pool (seasonally, usually June-Oct), gas grill & more

* Hosts are usually close by and happy to accommodate requests quickly (and enjoy meeting people from near and far)

* Pets welcome ($25/visit)
As stated in the house rules, there is an automatic minimum $250 service fee for any violations of house rules that require additional cleaning and/or cause damage. This is our home. We have tried to make it comfortable for you and for us, and have been thoughtful in the amenities we provide. We appreciate you for exercising the same level of thought and care when staying here.
While we are happy to host families, please note that the house is not “child-proofed,” nor do we provide any child-focused amenities (no crib, pack-n-play, high chair, etc).
We do ask that guests are relatively quiet after 10 PM, as a courtesy to neighbors. Please note that it's an old house, and sound does travel through the floors!
Parties and loud groups are not permitted. Thanks for helping us be good neighbors.
Smoking or vaping of any substances is not permitted on the premises.
Well-behaved pets are welcome, and must be registered with the reservation. There is a pet fee.
Reservations longer than 29 nights may incur additional fees.
Due to the ongoing pandemic, guests are expected to abide by CDC/WHO guidelines, as well as all North Carolina and Durham Covid-19 guidelines. Full up-to-date orders can be seen at ncdotgov.
We are generally available if you need anything, and we enjoy hosting. But if your time is limited while you are in Durham, we won't bother you.
Historic Trinity Park is one of Durham’s most sought-after neighborhoods, both for its historic architecture and prime location. The tree lined streets connect to parks, Duke’s East campus, and right to the heart of downtown. I love that I can enjoy the peace and quiet on my street, and within a 5 minute walk be in the middle of everything.
You'll have the whole apartment to yourself, and shared access to the deck, pool and patio.
The driveway is for loading and unloading only, but there is plenty of free street parking.
Just FYI...
* We have two cute dogs, Minnie and Wilbur, who get along with people and other pets (mostly indoors, but occasionally by the pool)

* There is free street parking and a driveway next to the house for unloading and loading

* Access to apartment is via key-code dead bolt, no keys necessary

* PLEASE NOTE: The commercial district is a block away from this apartment and is coming back to life! That includes bars frequented by local students - and means that on the weekends street traffic, music and bar noise can be loud into the early hours.

Also, this is one of four apartments in the house, so there may be other guests in or around the pool area, and you may hear footsteps or occasional noises from above (but not after quiet hours).

The backyard is fully fenced and includes a pool - all shared between the 4 apartments in the house. The pool (and zipline!) is available seasonally - typically June-October, as pool is not heated - at your own risk. Please check in with us for actual open dates. NOTE: as of July 2022 - pool is repaired and open!

And finally, the house and pool were built a long time ago, so they have plenty of "charm" (but most guests don't mind ;-).
Many places are within walking distance, but there are also free buses (Durham City Connector), bikes for rent and plenty of ride sharing services.

Cozy, comfortable and convenient.
All was private, clean and as shown on Vrbo for our visit to Durham. Very good location close by downtown. Made our visit as relaxing as possible.

A home away from home!
Trinity Park Retreat has great amenities--a kitchen and living room filled with light, a bedroom with laundry right next to the closet (something I want in my own home!), and a convenient walkable location. They had a great collection of brochures and maps for locations to visit in the area in addition to their online guidebook. I personally recommend the Saturday morning Farmers Market/Craft Market! Definitely note that the house is historic and not soundproofed, so sound in the evenings may be an issue depending on nearby businesses and neighbors. Overall, I had a great stay and hope to come back to the Trinity Park Retreat next time I'm in Durham!
Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2023
