The Best Tiny Home One Could Ask for!
Where to begin! The property is beautiful and backs up to a nature trail. There’s ample parking too! The tiny home has the greatest porch to watch the wildlife. And once you go inside, you have all the amenities one could ever ask for. The bed is super comfortable. They have chargers and a TV. They even have a kitchenette! The bathroom is also quite roomy for a tiny home. I could not ask for a sweeter host who makes sure everything is right! I will most definitely be back to stay here in February for a wedding. Overall a 10 out of 10!

The treehouse
This property and its owners are amazing! We got in late and they had the lights on for us. It is a beautiful little house that fit our needs perfectly and was so quaint, I will be staying there on my next visit to Durham!

Comfortable and Cozy Tiny Home
The property was quiet and peaceful and the hosts were very helpful and responsive. Close to Duke Hospital, shops and dining on Ninth Street, and downtown Durham. The neighborhood is charming and great for long walks.
