About this property

Large Waterfront Home Nestled in Bamboo Forest with Private Pool, Burlington NC

This secluded, three-story home is located on a private 10-acre compound in a bamboo forest in Burlington. A quiet and scenic location, it is convenient to the I-85/I-40 corridor, restaurants, medical care, shopping and Elon University. Floor to ceiling windows overlook a large inground pool with lots of outdoor seating and a two-acre fishing pond with a gazebo, kayak and canoe. Featuring hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace and a sunroom, the 4,500 square foot house will sleep up to 15 people. The first floor's open plan provides a spacious den, kitchen and dining area, not far from a ground floor master bedroom with private bath and jacuzzi. High speed internet, TV, ceiling fans, washer/dryer and more round out the offerings. The second floor has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. There's even a pool table in the basement, along with another bedroom and bath. Bamboo surrounds the perimeter of the property along with Japanese maples and prolific flowers in warm months. This is the perfect setting for a small family reunion, corporate retreat or quiet events that won't disturb the neighborhood's peaceful atmosphere. Events with more than 15 people will be considered with a fee. Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome. Special rates available for long term stays or rentals of more than one of the bamboo forest's four other rental properties: The Lodge at Longpine, the Bamboo Bungalow, the Tiny House at Longpine or York Place at Longpine. No smoking indoors and no cats.

Perfect for our wedding weekend!

We decided to rent this house for our out of town wedding party during our wedding weekend. Everyone was so impressed! The location was perfect and the yard was beautiful. The beds were all around comfortable and there was so much space for everyone to hang out and relax. It was also great to have plenty of bathrooms for everyone. We really enjoyed our weekend here.

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving retreat with our family! The property is gorgeous. We really enjoyed walking around the property and viewing the beautiful ornamental trees, and landscape!

Heart of Burlington

A quiet oasis in the heart of Burlington - close to everything - but feels secluded. The home has what you need to support a large group to include a few nice amenities like a pool table and pool/patio area. Nice bedrooms/beds/linens and plenty of parking.

Comfortable and spacious

The property was very comfortable and clean. We were a group of 11 and there was plenty of space, with large bedrooms and general living areas. The outdoor pool area, overlooking a lake was the perfect place to relax late in the day. And the hosts were very responsive. Excellent stay.

Relaxing location

Lovely property that shares secluded grounds and pond with four other rental houses. It is a short drive to the business district. It was too cool to use the pool, but we enjoyed sitting on the outside patio, in the sunroom, and barbecuing. Young adults enjoyed kayaking. All appliances (washer, dryer, dishwasher, AC/heater [separate controls for the main floor and upstairs]) and lights worked great, but generally, the furniture was old/worn. The kitchen was large, modern, and well-equipped. The beds on the main floor and one upstairs were very high, so elderly guests especially needed a stepstool to get onto. Overall, it is a very relaxing place.

Awesome property

The house seems like it’s in another world. As soon as you turn onto the property you’re surrounded by bamboo and then a lakefront home appears. The lake with the pier and canoes is awesome. The outdoor patio is huge and has a great view. There is a nice sized pool if you want to swim. The inside has five bedrooms plus four bunk beds. It’s the perfect place for a large group to stay.

Cool property, extremely out dated.

Just as it says. The house is nice and could be great. But its clearly been used as a rental and not cared after for years. Many broken tiles in backrooms. Cabinets falling off hinges, paint peeling off walls, many lights not working, paint dissolving around pool causing slik spot. Also one of the king rooms is in the basement with the bunkbeds. Normally not as issue but there is clearly a small water leak making it very musty and Im sure moldy. For Thuraday - Sunday costing $2500 is exissive for the property. If it was cleaned up and updated it would absolutely would be worth it. Definitely would not come back till its updated.

Has great potential…

Overall we had a great stay, house had more than enough room for our group (7 adults, 4 teens/preteens, dogs) but it’s an older home that needs some general maintenance and updates. AC was difficult to maintain, multiple lights out, furniture was generally comfortable but old/worn, etc. Beautiful property, feels secluded while still being close to shops/restaurants but note that there are 3 other rental houses on the property so it’s not completely private. Pool was great but it would be nice if the bathroom in the pool house area was functioning. Kids loved fishing in the pond.

Beautiful property!

The house and land were spectacular. We spent hours just walking around and enjoying the land. The pool was great for the kids. The house is huge and was great for us. Some of the light bulbs were out and there was a small spot of mold in the basement but all issues were responded to quickly by the host. Would love to stay again!

Family reunion

I was born in Burlington and now live in NYC. I was stunned by this beautiful property. I had no idea that somewhere so beautiful existed in Burlington. Everything was perfect. My grandsons loved the salt water pool. The gardens are a work of art. Truly. I have never been happier in Burlington. We hope to return next year.
