Tiny home in Durham

Eco-Urban Tiny House near Downtown and Duke

Our Tiny House is a haven, a simple retreat from the rush of daily living, and has been mindfully constructed with eco-friendly, recycled, and sustainable materials. Nestled in a corner of our backyard among old oaks and pines, it feels far from Downtown Durham even though you're only 1.5 miles away (walkable on a greenway). To support the fight against climate change and deforestation, we commit to planting a tree for every night of your stay.
