The VRBO is clean, well-located, and large enough to comfortably fit two people. The check-in process was smooth and the unit had pretty much anything we needed for the stay. I would definitely stay again!
We had a great stay for a quick guys weekend golf trip. Loved the location that allowed us to walk to everything in downtown Southern Pines. Would def stay again.
Thank you so much! We loved this property. Immaculate and well decorated and all of the amenities you could possibly need. We really liked the oversize towels. The host was very friendly and very cooperative when we needed to adjust our schedule. Once again thank you!
Beautiful newly renovated property. Walking distance to good restaurants, train station and shops. This unit is upstairs so not recommended for anyone with mobility issues. We had an excellent experience and highly recommend it!

Thank you so much, C, for your kind words and recommendation! We’re glad you enjoyed the newly renovated space and its walkable location to local restaurants, shops, and the train station. We hope your excellent experience will bring you back to stay with the Stay Well team again soon!
The perfect spot for our downtown stay. Easy, short walking distance to everything downtown! The unit was laid out very well and beautifully upgraded with a spacious kitchen and bathroom. Absolutely beautiful property! Maneuvering in the driveway was a bit tricky, but great to have off-street parking!
