👭 About My Sister's House
Welcome to My Sister's House, a cozy and revitalized Idlewood / Midtown cottage that celebrates the sisters we are born with and the many we gather along the way.
This home honors Sonya (Eric's sister), Wendy (Joy's sister), and the original pair of sisters (Angie and Amy) who grew up within these walls. It carries that same easy warmth you feel when visiting your own sister: familiar, forgiving, and full of heart.
Located within walking distance of Downtown Greensboro, Cone Hospital, Latham Park, and the Greenway Urban Trail, this cottage blends mid-century character with a sustainable, modern refresh. Expect a little city hum in the background, the sound of life unfolding around you: Ambulance, fire truck, Grimsley Marching Band, Baseball stadium fireworks, and Wendover traffic.
🏡 The Space
Bedrooms:
Each of the two bedrooms features a queen-size memory foam mattress, high-thread-count 100 percent cotton sheets, ceiling fan, Smart TV, and a small closet space for easy settling in.
Bathroom:
A spa-style bath offers a rain-head shower and handheld sprayer. Penny tile floor with herringbone tile shower surround. A vintage tub we salvaged and reglazed from Architectural Salvage of Greensboro finishes out this tiny bathroom space.
Kitchen:
The modern stainless steel kitchen with KitchenAid range and dishwasher with red Kitchen Aid stand mixer. Vintage Red Avon Glass dishes gifted from my dear friend Curtis, all fit for real enjoyment, not just pretend.
Living and Outdoor Areas:
Relax in the cozy living room, enjoy coffee or an evening glass of wine on the covered patio added in 2024, or take in the fenced backyard shaded by a mature and giant Pin Oak tree. The home is small but generous in spirit, designed for connection and calm.
Parking:
Off-street parking makes city exploring easy.
🐾 Pet Policy
We love animals, but this home is small and carefully maintained, so there is a firm two-pet maximum. More than two pets can overwhelm the space and leave lingering odors that are difficult to remove between guests. We love well-behaved pets they make travel feel more like home! We charge a $25 per pet, per night fee per stay.
Please read before booking:
• Up to two well-behaved pets are welcome.
• List all pets in your booking request so we can prepare the home.
• Pets are not allowed on furniture or bedding. If your pet likes the couch, please bring your own cover or sheet or let us know and we will leave some older sheets for you to cover our furnishings.
• Guests traveling with cats must share their litter setup and containment plan before booking to confirm measures that prevent litter scattering, clawing or spraying.
• Pick up outdoor waste and report any accidents or damage right away.
• Unregistered pets, excessive shedding, or damage beyond normal cleaning may result in additional charges through Airbnb's Resolution Center.
We clean with the professionals from Simply Organized and Clean who use low fragrance, eco-friendly, non-toxic products to protect pets, people, and the planet.
🛏 Linen Care and Damage Fees
Our linens are high-thread-count 100 percent cotton, washed with gentle unscented detergent to keep them soft and allergen free.
If linens or towels are permanently stained, or damaged, the following fees apply:
• 25 dollars per bath towel
• 100 dollars per sheet set
• Quilt or duvet cover TBD
Guests are notified of any charges before they are submitted through Airbnb's Resolution Center.
🚽 Flushing Policy
Only toilet paper and natural waste should be flushed.
Do not flush wipes, even those labeled "flushable," or feminine products.
Plumbing repairs caused by misuse will result in a charge between $100 and $500.
🧹 Mid-Stay Cleaning
Available with 24 hours' notice for an additional fee. A great option for longer visits or guests traveling with pets.
🌿 A Sisterly Kind of Space
At My Sister's House, nothing is generic. Every lamp, fabric, and fixture has been chosen with intention. This home celebrates the care and laughter that sisters bring, a mix of comfort, truth, and belonging.
Whether you come to rest, heal, or reconnect, this space holds you the way a good sister would: warmly, honestly, and with authenticity only found with a Sister.

💛 The Story
My Sister's House is about connection. It honors both the sisters we are born with and the sisters we choose, the women who remind us who we are and love us anyway.
We hope you feel that same comfort and familiarity here, the easy welcome of staying with your own sister.
Welcome home to My Sister's House.
Warmly,
Joy and Eric 🌻

Guest access
Guest Access – Sisters 👭
Guests enjoy keypad entry at the front door for easy self check-in. Parking is available for up to two cars in the gravel driveway or along the curb in front of the home. Please note: Sisters has a small basement apartment currently being revitalized. This space is not in use now but is expected to welcome guests in mid-to-late 2026.
Other things to note
Our cleaners use eco-friendly, pet-safe products and add extra vacuuming, sanitizing, and lint-rolling after every pet visit. Please bring your pet’s favorite blanket or bed to help minimize shedding and keep furniture fresh for future guests.
If your pet sheds heavily or you’re staying more than three nights, please message us so we can plan additional time for our cleaning team. We love well-behaved pets they make travel feel more like home! We charge a $25 per pet, per night fee per stay.
The basement is not ready to host guests currently. The location of this home is super urban. This is an old house. While we do have homes professionally cleaned by Simply Organized and Clean, a small, local cleaning company, between guests, we can not guarantee a gluten-free, pet hair-free, 100% sterile environment. We love creating our spaces to mimic staying at the home of a beloved friend or relative and ask that guests please treat these spaces respectfully.
