Spacious Mid-Century, fenced yard, NCSU/Lenovo
Great spot! Host is very responsive and friendly, house was very clean, fenced in yard was great for the pups. Beautiful trees surround the house. It is on a somewhat busy road, so expect some traffic noise, especially in the bedrooms, but still doable even for a country girl ;)

East Durham Oasis - Pet friendly!
This was a perfect place for me and my 2 kitties in Durham for two months. Kay was responsive when we had some wifi troubles, and otherwide let us be (which works great for me). Plenty of room, well stocked, decent desk for my workspace, two comfy beds, nice yard. It's not a great neighborhood, but the immediate space around the house, the block we were on, was perfectly save. Adorable home, obviously a place where people have lived.

Nature Lover's Paradise – Private 2 Bedroom Apt
We loved this place. Great communication from the hosts, very sweet, well-appointed and comfortable accommodations, beautiful setting in a lovely neighborhood.

Spacious 5 bedroom home with extras
My family absolutely loved our stay at Mary’s place! We were there four 4 nights and we felt completely at home. The neighborhood was lovely and peaceful. Everything we needed was available. Beds were comfortable. We would definitely recommend Mary’s place!

Spacious 4 Bdrm | Private backyard | Near downtown
Had a quick stay here and this house was perfect for our group who were attending a Durham Bulls game. The location is not in the best area but was convenient to get a cheap Uber. Jeremy is super responsive and accommodating!

William Strayhorn house of Carrboro
Great location and walking distance to a variety of local shops, cafes and eateries in Carrboro and Chapel Hill. Very comfortable accommodations and amenities.

Graduation Central! Smart House next to RDU
Our stay was amazing. Remys home has literally everything you could need or want. Things we didn’t even know we’d want the had! Literally you only need to bring your clothes she has everything else. I absolutely would stay here again and would recommend her home to anyone. Thank you Remy for a wonderful comfortable stay!

Late checkout! Cozy 1940s bungalow in NGP
Lanae was just the kindest hostess. We were coming to Durham to see our daughter and her partner. Suddenly their dog fell ill and Lanae was able to take us earlier. Her house is lovely - great pool, squeaky clean and near a beautiful park. We are so grateful for a perfect stay. We will be back! Laura and Joe

Designer home close to RDU and downtown, sleeps 12
The space was accurately represented in the photos and generally met our expectations. The location was convenient and check-in was smooth. The living areas were comfortable for our group, though the property showed some signs of wear. While advertised for up to 12 people, the bathroom situation is something future guests should note - there are only two bathrooms, with the master bathroom being quite small and featuring a barn door that doesn't offer complete privacy. For larger groups, this could create some challenges with bathroom scheduling. Overall, we had a good stay, but would recommend this place for smaller groups (perhaps 6-8 people) rather than the maximum capacity of 12 if bathroom access and privacy are important to your group.

Lovely home in Durham with Game/Movie Room!
We had a good stay at this Airbnb. The host was very responsive around any questions we had which was appreciated. It was a spacious house and backyard which would work well for a family. Quiet neighborhood, easy to take evening walks around in. Has washer/dryer which was helpful for an extended stay. Thanks Shawna!

Family retreat w/ a pool-Durham
Yuan was an amazing host super accommodating with my last-minute booking after our original plans fell through. After a quick conversation, he had no problem with us bringing pets, which was a huge relief. The home was clean, in a quiet, lovely neighborhood, and bonus there’s a pool! Highly recommend.

Pet Friendly, Chic & Comfy 2 BR 2 Bath with Pool.
This was the perfect place to stay for a family reunion. The bed was super comfortable, the pool was so nice to go sit out by and I loved the screened in porch 😍

Percy Manor - Pool, Fire Pit, Games and More!
House was spacious and I’m a great location. Host was very accommodating and attentive as well. Excellent communication.

Spacious 3BR Apt. in Grand Old Home, Downtown
We had a lovely time here! The house is so charming, with a beautiful garden, in a lovely, quiet area, and within walking distance of downtown. The hosts are very responsive and flexible. Wish we got a chance to pet the dogs ;) Can’t recommend it enough.

100 Year-Old Historic Brick 2BR Loft High Ceiling4
I’ve stayed in the apartment 4 times in the last 9 months I think and I’d highly recommend it to anybody. The gym within west village is fantastic and it’s so easy to walk to great places and also to go for a run. I love staying there and hope to be back again soon!

Pine Perch Suite - 10 Mins to Chapel Hill, UNC
Best Airbnb I’ve been to hands-down!

Secluded 2 bedroom MIL apartment w/own yard.
Very good value, very clean and comfortable. Photos are accurate, check in and check out were super easy!

Roomy, private suite with separate entrance.
David’s place is beautiful! It’s surrounded by mature trees in a lovely little neighborhood with lots of stores and parks located nearby. David was a very responsive and personable host. Definitely recommend.

Backyard Picket Cottage
We loved staying at Desiree's tiny home! The home was very cute, cozy, and clean. It was the perfect weekend stay! We will definitely re-book the next time we visit Durham!

Cozy Home Near Cary & Apex w/ Porch & Fenced Yard
We had a great stay in Cary. While there were some hiccups with figuring out the keypad, our host was very responsive. We especially appreciated the well equipped and stocked kitchen! We were able to cook chili in the instant pot, waffles with the waffle iron and other meals. The house was stand alone and we enjoyed our privacy and quiet surroundings. It is a short walk to Thomas Brooks park and playground for the little ones. The driveway is a bit steep and so consider that if anyone in your party has mobility issues. Otherwise, we highly recommend!!

Cary Cottage Studio w/ Private Yard (Fenced)
Once again, Shelley and Peter were amazing hosts for our time in NC for the Dreamville festival. They will be my default place anytime I am in Raleigh/Cary. They were nothing but helpful and super responsive to any questions we had. The Airbnb itself has everything you could ever need. Go with Shelley and Peter!

In-town house in the woods
Great location, isolated but 5-10 minutes from restaurant's and grocery stores. Very comfortable bedding and nice open floor plan.
