Cozy cabin with indoor fireplace

The Cabin is a peaceful property, surrounded by nature.

The space
If you are looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway, look no further. As soon as you walk in this spacious cabin, you will experience a feeling of calm and peace. Located on a 20 acres lot, this cabin is surrounded by nature. There are plenty of rocking chairs on the porch to read, sip on coffee (included with your stay), or just sit and be. Wake up to the sounds of birds chirping in the distance, or sit at night on the porch, and enjoy the sounds of frogs, and watch as the deer walk by in a sea of fireflies. At night, there are millions of stars to observe. Eventually drift off to sleep and dream!

This may be the nicest rental property we've ever stayed at. Quiet. Secluded, but not hard to get to. And the house is immaculate. No signs of damage from previous guests. High-quality furniture. Well maintained and with all the details in mind of the guests. We'll be staying here every time we're in town.

Good stay for the family

Nice place 30 minutes from Durham. Perfect for our family of 5. Floors were a little slick for our toddler but no biggie. Well outfitted kitchen and quality paper products in the bathrooms is always welcome.

Our second stay at this beautiful house. It's close to all Triangle Universities and is a wonderful place to stay with our family. We love the porch seating, the interior decor, and being surrounded by nature. It is one of our favorite VRBO locations.

Perfect Getaway in a Quiet, Beautiful Setting

Our stay at this cabin in Stem, NC, was fantastic! The cabin is set back about a quarter-mile off the road, providing a peaceful and private retreat. The setting is quiet and serene, making it the perfect place to relax. Inside, the cabin is well-appointed with all the necessities for a comfortable stay. Everything was spotless, and all amenities were in great working order. It’s clear that the owners take great care of the property. We truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely plan a return trip. Highly recommend!

Loved the cabin

Loved the property and our stay, Anne was a great host! Check in was super easy, check out was super easy. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils, cookware, bowls, even things to store leftovers in. We added to the spice collection. The porch was a perfect, peaceful, quiet spot to hang out and chat.A bit of advice: Put your heaviest sleeper or your earliest riser downstairs, the wood floors aren’t very quiet when people are moving around upstairs. And if you are shorter than 5’4”, bring a stepstool, the place was built by giants! lol.

Family Time

This property is so homey and relaxing. This is the second time we have stayed here and it’s very clean, uncluttered and tastefully decorated. I really like the kitchen and the dishes are great and organized and makes it easy to cook a nice meal. The area is so quiet and serene we enjoy seeing deer and wildlife. We like the location with an easy drive to Oxford and Durham. Hope to be back again soon.

Wonderful family gathering house!

Having stayed at multiple rental properties from west to east coasts, we rank this place as one of the best. Clean, comfortable and so well outfitted for all the meals we shared. We explored the surrounding area and enjoyed multiple walking trails and the beautiful Duke botanical gardens. Our afternoon walking the grounds surrounding the house and rocking in the rocking chairs on the porch was our favorite day of all. We look forward to returning! Thank you for offering such a relaxing property.

Gorgeous getaway for the whole family

This was the perfect spot for our family to stay while in town for my niece’s wedding - so clean and comfortable. We loved preparing meals in the well-stocked and open kitchen. The main floor living room was spacious and full of entertainment options, while the additional TV room in the loft allowed the kids a fun space. The wrap-around porch was a bonus to take in the lovely property and we rested well during our stay. The host was very responsive to any questions we had and sent very detailed and helpful instructions. I’d absolutely recommend this rental to anyone staying in the area!
