Oh my gosh! This cottage was spotless and they thought of everything. We didn’t want for anything. The sheets were so soft and the pillows were fabulous. Location was perfect for our needs. Will book again for sure.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
My stay was absolutely perfect. The house is beautiful and truly felt like a home away from home.It might sound like a small detail, but the motion sensor lighting in the kitchen was a total game changer! It was such a convenient touch that I genuinely appreciated. The location was also ideal for my work trip, making it incredibly easy to commute between Durham and Raleigh.Thank you again for a wonderful stay!
