The house is ‘cuter’ than the photos suggest. It’s cozy, kitchen is well equipped, location great, AC works well (outside temps were 96 when we were there), quiet neighborhood. A good value. I’d come back!

My husband and I stayed for two nights to explore the area -- cute little cottage! Ideally located near UNC, restaurants, and shops and in a quiet neighborhood. Brad communicated with us frequently to ensure all our needs were met. House was clean upon arrival and would stay again if we're ever in that area.
