    The 2 nextdoor waterfront rentals in Durham NC were perfect for our large family gathering. JT and Susan were excellent hosts. The properties in beautiful water front woods exceeded our expectations in every way. They had all the little things you need and everything was easy to find with labeled cabinets and drawers. Furnishings and appliances were beautiful, like new, & in great taste. We enjoyed relaxing in the back yard, porches, grilling, playing corn hole, games, kids caught their first fish in the pond using many provided fishing poles. They sent me a suit that I forgot at the property. It was a great value and was everything you could hope for. Thank you very much.

    Five nights, lots of driving around between Durham, Chapel Hill and Raleigh; well located for that. Systems, appliances in great shape; everything included in kitchen and bath; we cooked in (or take out) several times and it was all easy. Good grill, sitting by pond was chill.

    The place was well suited for our family. Sue was extremely responsive and made sure we were settled in her home and was available all weekend to answer any questions, if we had them. The house was clean, well-stocked and very comfortable for us. We were out the door early in the morning, otherwise we would have enjoyed having our coffee down by the lake!

    This was a nice home for our family to gather while we were in town for college graduation. It was very quiet and had all the comforts of home. We loved the spaciousness of the property and that everything was all on one level for the grandparents. We would definitely stay here again!

    Four gal pals spent a long weekend in this very comfy, cozy and well cared for home. We were so happy with all the small touches from two coffee pots, seasonings, to a totally unexpected Christmas tree! Communications from the hosts were spot on and extremely helpful. The location was perfect as it felt secluded but was just minutes away from shopping and restaurants. We all agreed that we would be happy to make this location our agreed upon meeting spot in the future.

    The house has a lot of space for our family. It is clean and at a great location. We stayed in the house while visiting Duke University. It is a short drive to the campus.
