Great time

We celebrated Thanksgiving with our family and we found everything handy in the house. We had some trouble setting the TV to watch the football game but with patience we got it. We really enjoyed the stroll along the hiking path in the nearest park. It was so pretty during those days we stayed at the house. We forgot two wine bottles that I hope someone will enjoy!

Great stay in Durham

The house is well maintain and well supplied. It was just my wife and I, but it's very spacious and would be very comfortable for a larger group or family. Very near the American Tobacco Trail for hiking or biking as well as other nearby trails. Also very easy access to downtown Durham. We would definitely stay here again when in Durham.

About the host

Host profile image
Hello, we are very excited to share our Sampaguita Home with you on AIrbnb! The Sampaguita is the national flower of the Philippines (also known as the Arabian Jasmine) and holds special meaning to property owner Anjanette who was born and raised in the Philippines. As a child she has fond memories of the fragrant scent of the flower which grew at her grandmother’s home. Anjanette studied nursing in the Philippines and moved to Michigan in 1996 after marrying her husband Frank. Frank grew up in Michigan and graduated with a B.B.A. in Business Computer Systems. We moved to North Carolina in 2004 to enjoy the warmer weather and bluer skies. Anjanette received her Realtor's license in 2016 and we have been passionate about the real estate business ever since! Our motto is "work hard but don't forget to stop and take a breather and get some much needed rest and relaxation". If you book with us we will go "out of the way" to make your Airbnb experience as pleasant as can be!
