Incredible place for an incredible staycation. The two page guide by the door with the location of everything we could ever want (cleaning supplies, coffee, tums) was a step beyond. Would love to stay at this property again
This is the 3rd time we have stayed at this property. The beds are very comfortable and the house is very clean. In a quiet neighborhood but located pretty near everywhere we want to go. We will probably stay there again next year.
The house was perfect for people traveling with children. There is a huge fenced in back yard with lots of toys. There is a fire pit area that the children roasted marshmallows in. There was plenty of room and space for everyone. The house is very clean and had anything you would need. I highly recommend it.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that your family had such a great time and that the kids enjoyed the toys and roasting marshmallows by the fire pit.
Providing a clean, spacious, and well-equipped environment for families is exactly what we strive for. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you all back for more memories in the backyard soon!
Comfortable home away from home for large family, and friends. Clean, all necessary kitchen equipment, to cook full course meal. Plenty of dishes, glasses and coffee cups/mugs. A/C works perfectly. Lots of puzzles,games and books, for adults and children. A natural yard filled with nature and animals. A fire pit ready for a fire, however we did not use due to drought conditions. A deck to enjoy that nature while doing yoga. Plenty of parking. Would stay again if need arises! Thank you for sharing your property.
The house was perfect for our stay, with a fenced in backyard, excellent beds and a well equipped kitchen. Also, it is close to Chapel Hill for sports events.

We were in town with a teenage family member in the ICU at the UNC Children's Hospital. This home was the perfect answer to allow for rest, family meetings, meals, and everything we needed to make it through a difficult situation. The owner was very responsive and understanding of our needs. It is a mile off the beaten path, but this turned out be a blessing with the quiet neighborhood in a cul-de-sac. It was also very convenient to the hospital, shopping, and the basic needs of our group. Highland Comfort has a great layout that gives everyone some privacy when they need it, plus plenty of spaces to gather. It was clean and comfortable with all the modern conveniences. We hope to return under better circumstances.
The house was just perfect for my family. We had a family wedding and this house was just perfect to get away for it all the craziness and just relax. The dog in the yard behind us was barking a lot but after a while the dog got use to us and stopped barking.

Thank you so much for the incredible 10/10 review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that the house was just perfect for your family and served as a relaxing, peaceful sanctuary amidst the family wedding festivities. That is exactly the kind of experience we aim to provide.
We genuinely appreciate you mentioning the situation with the neighbor's dog. While we can't control outside noise, we are very sorry for that initial disturbance, and we are certainly relieved to know that the dog settled down quickly and you were able to fully enjoy the peace you deserved for the rest of your stay.
We would be honored to host your family again anytime you need another relaxing getaway!
Very clean and well equipped. The hosts had coffee ready for brewing and extra things in the refrigerator. The house was certainly spacious for our family gathering.

Wow, thank you so much for the wonderful 10/10 review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that you found the house to be very clean and well equipped.
It means the world to us that you noticed and appreciated the extra efforts we put in, like having coffee ready for brewing and a few supplies in the refrigerator. We truly believe the little details are what make a stay special, and we're delighted to know the house was spacious enough for your family gathering.
We loved having you as our guests and would be honored to host you all again the next time you visit!
Host was very responsive throughout the booking process and to the couple of questions we had upon checkin. Quiet location which was perfect for us and our dog, and only 20 minutes to graduation events at UNC Chapel Hill.

I am glad that you had a great stay. We’d like to host you again!
The property was generally nice and as described.Our only issues is that there were ants in the kitchen when we arrived, some of the provided snacks were over a year expired, and that the owners had people over in the backyard working on the shed during our stay (and windows without blinds in the bathroom/shower the workers could see into).But the experience was otherwise pleasant and suited our needs.

Hi Troy,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your review! We’re happy to hear that you found the property generally nice and as described, and that it suited your needs overall.
We’re really sorry to hear about the ants in the kitchen when you arrived. That’s definitely not up to our usual standards, and we’ve spoken with our cleaning team to ensure they’re more thorough moving forward. We wish you’d mentioned it during your stay so we could’ve addressed it right away, but we’re on it now to prevent this in the future.
We also apologize for the expired snacks. Those were left as a little gesture of hospitality, but it was an oversight by our housekeeper to miss the expiration dates. We’re so sorry about that and will be double-checking everything going forward to make sure all snacks are fresh for our guests.
As for the workers in the backyard, we were caught off guard too—we weren’t informed that contractor would be there working on the shed during your stay. We apologize for any inconvenience this caused and are taking steps to improve communication with our team so this doesn’t happen again.
Regarding the bathroom window, we appreciate you bringing that up. Since it’s on the second floor and fairly small with a half white curtain, we hadn’t thought blinds were necessary, but we totally understand your concern about privacy with the worker around. We’re now looking into installing blinds to make sure future guests feel completely comfortable.
Thanks again for your feedback—it really helps us improve! We’d love to welcome you back for a smoother stay next time.
Best,
Anna
Thank you for sharing your home with us Anna. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The house is situated in a beautiful wooded and quiet area. There are plenty of bedrooms for adults so everyone could have a comfortable night sleep. Everything was clean and welcoming. When we arrived. I would recommend staying here to anyone traveling in the area.
