We enjoyed every minute of our stay here. We traveled to NC to celebrate our son's 5th birthday at the museum of life and science and the property was only 11 minutes away from the venue which was perfect. Check in was easy and it was spacious enough to accommodate our family. We enjoyed hanging out on the deck sharing laughs with our family. Thank you so much Richard for making our trip amazing.

From a host to another host, this property is nothing less than perfect! The pictures are very accurate and the home was extremely clean and stocked with everything you could possibly need.

This place was perfect for our stay! My kids absolutely loved it. There was plenty of supplies, and plenty of space. Weather wouldn't allow us the chance to utilize the outside space, but it really looked comfortable. This is a place we'll for on our next trip.

Weekend getaway

The house was as portrayed on the site. We had enough space for my husband and two adult daughters and infant grandson to rest comfortably. We especially liked how well stocked the kitchen pantry and bathroom cabinets were with some food essentials and personal products. The house was conveniently located to downtown Durham and Duke University.

The house is beautiful and just as pictured. Richard responded to my messages quickly and with lots of details. He also thought of everything that I may have forgotten such as razors, toothbrushes, and body wash. The fridge had some stuff as well. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend it to my friends and family.

The house was perfect for our needs. The only issue (not a complaint) is the Keurig didn't work. We found the french press to be better for us anyway. And the door would not lock when we left. We followed directions and tried multiple times.

Home away from home

Great home away from home. Being able to cook breakfast for my Champs! before a long day of Duke Basketball camp was great. Centrally located to everything you may need. We ate out a few days, did a Wal-Mart run and worried about nothing. Richard checked in with us to ensure us he was available but we didnt need anything. The house was fully prepared with backup everything you can think of. Each kid had their own room with TV to retreat to and unwind in their own way, which helps this parent's peace of mind. Would definitely stay again without a doubt. And will check for next year's camp week unless we need more rooms.
