About this cottage rental
Welcome to our Woodland Cottage where serenity awaits your arrival. Watch the daily deer & fawn parade, or the swallowtails happily fluttering from flowering tree to flowering bush on this 1.79-acre property. Bunnies, squirrels, and turtles are also residents and birds are abundant. An easy .5-mile hike down to the Eno River on a lovely, wooded path is just one of many walks in this friendly neighborhood. Durham is the perfect destination for exploring historical sights, biking, kayaking, bird watching, pickleball, golf, fine and casual dining and to enjoy boutique shopping downtown. It is only 1.7 miles to area restaurants, Starbucks, Grocery and Drug Stores. The Cottage was built in 1951 and has been recently updated to feel fresh and new. The front porch, yard and garden are also welcoming and provide additional spaces to relax.

We just returned from our second stay at this wonderful cottage, and it was every bit as fantastic as the first time. The home was exactly as described. It was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for a relaxing getaway. It proved perfect once again for our visit with relatives in Durham, offering just the right balance of privacy and convenience.The location is ideal. It is secluded enough to feel peaceful and immersed in nature, yet close to everything we needed. We especially enjoyed sitting on the porch in the afternoons, watching the deer parade right in front of us. This time we also hiked to the nearby Eno River, which is relatively easy to access from the property.The owner was once again fantastic to work with. She checked in after our arrival, making sure everything was perfect. Her responsiveness and thoughtfulness make us happy to rent the property.If you're looking for a quiet escape in Durham that's comfortable and well-maintained, we highly recommend this cottage. We'll be back for a third stay!

It was perfect for what we needed. I sat on the porch each morning and watched the deer and cardinals on the front lawn. The host communicated quickly whenever we had a question. I will return next time I am in the area.

This is our second annual Easter stay at the cottage but the first for our adult daughter, who us a seasoned world traveler! She has nothing but rave reviews for the property. Debbie has thought of every little extra touch from laundry pods to an umbrella! The kitchen is very well equipped and the beds are comfortable with perfect pillows. I was able to sit at the desk and wrap my Easter gifts for the grands? Who loved the basket of snacks lovingly left in the kitchen! The motion detector lights were the perfect "welcome home" for us geriatric residents each night on our return home at dark! We will return year after year to celebrate in style! Thanks

This precious cottage is comfortable, well-stocked with kitchen and bath essentials, excellent tv and streaming, parking, cozy beds, outside areas, and was an excellent location for us visiting family over the Christmas holiday! We will absolutely book another stay when we visit our family there. The hosts were welcoming, available if needed, and had even decorated the cottage for Christmas, a most delightful touch!!!
