Comfy + Cozy Stay
October 2025
The house was truly perfect for a "working from home" trip to Durham! Everything was cozy and comfortable. Look forward to visiting again another time :)

Quaint Creek Cottage!
April 2025
I absolutely loved my stay! The space was clean and was the perfect balance of a small space with all the amenities I needed. I loved the small art touches and the pullout was surprisingly comfortable (I'm always weary of them - but this one felt the same as a true bed!). The cottage also has the cutest walkway with little solar lights that turn on at night - with the creek on one side, it feels quite magical :) I enjoyed making coffee in the morning to see the morning light come up, walking and running on the Ellerbee Creek trail (I love the loops of off the paved trail that go deeper into the forest - highly recommend!) and walking around the neighborhood at night (so many people are about walking, so it feels very safe, I love the houses in the area, and I scored a great book at the little free library!). This is a fantastic spot, and Ty is super helpful and a great host!

Tiny Home for the weekend
October 2024
We stayed in this tiny home while we were in Durham for a friend's wedding and really enjoyed our stay! Our hosts had the home set up for us so that when we finally landed after midnight we had a cozy and comfortable place waiting, and the location is incredibly convenient for exploring the greater Durham area. Would happily spend another weekend here!

Amazing stay at the Tree house!
July 2024
We had such a wonderful stay at this cute treehouse studio! We loved being surrounded by big trees and watching the birds every morning. We walked every morning to an amazing paved walking trail steps from the front door. It's location is amazing, close to downtown so we could easily Uber to a Bull's game. Super close to 9th street so I could go to yoga and grab coffee or grocery shop after ( within a few minutes drive from the house). You couldn't ask for a better location for golfing either, my husband went many times down the road to Hillandale course. So many good restaurants close by too. Shelley and Ty were absolutely fabulous hosts, they went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. The space was well thought out and had everything we needed. The deck was perfect to sit and relax with a cup of coffee and a good book. We didn't want to leave! Highly recommend staying here!
