Wonderful stay!

Our group had a great time this rental! The screened in porch was wonderful, we used it every night and morning! The house was cozy, had great AC, plenty of sleeping room, and several good places to hang out indoors. The host was responsive, nice, and very accommodating. Highly recommend staying here if you’re in Chapel Hill and have a good size group with you.

We stayed here the end of June for a family reunion. Everything was great! The actual reunion was elsewhere, but we slept, showered, baked and did end-of-day activities here for 3 nights. The porch was perfect for a nightcap, conversations and table games. Neighborhood is quiet with lots of deer; we had a small dog on a leash. Grocery stores are nearby; very convenient! We woukd stay here again.

Wonderful Home

Mary’s place is wonderful. Very spacious and homey. The kitchen had everything you might need, including spices and olive oil. And there were plenty of towels, pillows, and blankets for the 10 of us. It is comfy, spacious and really close to UNC.

The entire house was just full of antiques. The master bedroom had a shower that was maybe 3' x 3' and there clusters of dust under every bed. The wifi worked in the kitchen but not in any rooms or upstairs. I took pictures but they're on my camera. There was a crack in a picture in the downstairs bedroom. The owner was nice but I would never choose that place again.

Another wonderful stay

This is the second time we have spent over a week at Mary’s house and have had a wonderful stay. Lots of bedrooms, big backyard, fenced in porch, two living rooms and well appointed kitchen were all huge pluses for us! It is also very close to the booker creek trail which is nice to walk on. Mary is lovely and was very flexible and easy to get in touch with as needed. She has a pack and play and lots of toys for my kids. Will stay again!
