About this property

Chapel Hill Nature Retreat with Room for the Entire Family

Surrounded by trees in a quiet residential neighborhood with designer furniture and plenty of space, this home is the perfect retreat getaway without sacrificing any of the modern amenities of being away from home. Furnishings were all sourced sustainably, and arranged artfully. We only use unscented detergents and soaps. A quick 5 minute drive or a brisk 20 minute walk takes you to Whole Foods, Trader Joes and a host of restaurants nearby. You won't need to sacrifice your gym routine with our in home gym, while serene walking trails and the community lake offer respite and nature walks close by.

With 3 bedrooms, two baths and a separate in law studio with kitchenette and newly renovated bathroom, you'll have plenty of space for everyone. We have two additional spaces for sleeping, one in each of the two living rooms, a projector for watching movies, a great big dining table and home gym with laundry. The area surrounding the house is wooded with a beautifully spacious patio and newly constructed walkways and sidewalk make accessing the home from your vehicle a breeze. Located on a corner lot, you'll feel like you've escaped to a far away place, while still being walking distance from Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Staples, Starbucks and Breugger's Bagels.

Nearby are walking trails, a lake and a playground for the little ones, and our home was also designed with them in mind, with plenty of games to keep everyone busy.

Our home is fully stocked with everything you need, including linens, shampoos, soaps, coffee, baking sheets, a Vitamix, and Apple TV. On occasion we will rent the in law suite out separately, as the main house accommodates most parties less than 8.

Visit for a game at nearby UNC / Duke, both universities are about a ten minute drive away, or find sanctuary here while a loved one is at one of the nearby hospitals. Whatever it is that brings you to the area, we will be so happy to be there for you on whatever it is you need.

Good place for larger groups

We enjoyed staying in this versatile place during a family reunion. With four bedrooms and three baths it worked out well for our needs. Enjoyed cooking in the well equipped kitchen.

Excellent home away from home

Sheila was a wonderful host. We enjoyed the home greatly. My family of 7 and I were in town for a wedding and we had to travel to and fro for the wedding as well as go into town for a meal. The home is very close to downtown Chapel Hill and to campus. I highly recommend this clean, spacious and well-appointed home.

Lake Forest Home

Very clean and spacious home in a woodsy neighborhood. House was big enough for all adults to have their own room. House could use a bit more outside lighting as it’s very dark on the street and driveway. Also suggest adding a few more pieces of furniture such as dressers and mirrors in the 3 bedrooms and a couple more comfy chairs in the living room.

Overall great stay!

Overall, we had a great stay and a great trip. The communication at check in Wasn’t great as the power was out and we were not notified. We ended up delaying our arrival a few hours and then checked in fine once the power came back on. Everything ended Honey up fine, but it would’ve just been nice to know earlier in the day as we were traveling from out of state. One toaster and one burner on the stove didn’t work, but that wasn’t a big deal to us.
