    We had a fantastic experience at this VRBO in Durham. The house was exceptionally clean and well-maintained. We loved the location—the neighborhood felt very safe and was convenient for everything we wanted to do. Communication with the owners was a breeze; they were friendly, quick to respond, and made the whole process stress-free. It's truly a great place for any guest.

    We had a perfect stay at this charming and surprisingly roomy bungalow in a terrific location. Everything was clean and new and worked!  The light was wonderful, the showers were hot and luxurious, and there were so many helpful tiuches, such as luggage stands and neat hangers in the plentiful and large closets. Stacy stayed in close but unobtrusive touch. We will definitely try to stay here again when we are next in Durham!

    We were in Durham to see a Duke basketball game, and this property was perfect! It was exactly as described - beautiful, clean, and with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable visit. The decor was tasteful, giving the place a warm and inviting vibe, and the beds were super comfortable, making it easy to get a good night's sleep. The location was perfect! We were close to Duke University, with tons of fantastic restaurants, coffee, and shops nearby, yet the property itself was in a peaceful, quiet neighborhood, so we felt like we had our own little retreat. Our host was fantastic and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. She provided local recommendations, checked in to see if we needed anything, and was always quick to respond to any questions. Overall, this VRBO was the perfect place to take in Duke University, unwind, and explore the Durham area. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend it!

    This house was perfect for 3 couples, as each bedroom had a king- size bed. It's very close to Duke and 9th Street. I recommend Monuts for breakfast and lunch!

    Met my bff for a weekend and the house was just a perfect mix of cozy chic. I always have a bag packed with paper towels, dish soap, hand soap you name it and I did not have to use one thing. Truly the house was such a nice quiet spot for a girl weekend. Showers are to die for, beds so so dreamy. Can’t wait to go back!

    The property is beautiful and made our girls trip exactly what we wanted it to be. Wonderful kitchen, dining, and living area to share meals and coffee etc together. We took walks in the neighborhood everyday and night to admire the old homes and great landscaping, and walking distance to coffee, breakfast and even a grocery store. Short ride to anything you'd want to do in durham. Beds were super comfortable. 10/10 recommend.
