About this property

Eclectic Forest View Efficiency in Quiet Chapel Hill Neighborhood

Luxury efficiency newly built in quiet neighborhood w/ private entrance. Two-room studio has forest view on two sides. Sliding glass doors open to fixed window screens to create totally open-air feel with cross breeze. Curtains wrap room for total privacy. King-size bed with memory foam mattress, work/dining area, kitchenette, 3/4 bath, and TV-viewing room. 2 miles from UNC, 5 miles from Duke.

Efficiency is located on a half-acre wooded lot in Chapel Hill's Booker Creek neighborhood, just adjacent Lake Forest. This is a quiet Chapel Hill Residential neighborhood with well-established properties and homes. A city walking trail just up the street creates a scenic 10-minute walk to Eastgate and Plaza Shopping Centers, with Starbucks, Brueggers Bagels, Whole Foods, Rite Aide, and numerous other shops and restaurants. It is 2 minutes by car from East Franklin Street (where it becomes the Durham/Chapel Hill Boulevard) which puts it within 5 minutes drive of UNC, and a 15 minute drive from Downtown Durham and Duke University. It is likewise a 5-minute drive to I-40 and therefore a 20 minute drive to RDU Airport. Two different bus lines pass within a block of our address, but buses do not pass directly by.

Two miles from UNC, 5 miles from Duke, easy access to Durham-Chapel Hill Blvd, and I-40. 15 miles from RDU International Airport. This is our second Airbnb listing on this same property (if you have a larger party and might want both units or are interested in our larger rental with full kitchen and washer/dryer, please inquire). This 2nd rental was built specifically for use as a short-term rental. It has no line-of-sight view from the main house, and has a private entrance. Our intent was to create a luxury space to rent for guests with appreciation for such. The result is a living space so beautiful that we hate to not use it for ourselves! Space is ideal for 1 couple (2 people) in the king-sized bed. The sofa in the TV viewing room is a futon-bed that folds out and is technically a "full" sized mattress (smaller than a queen) which might accommodate one adult, one adult couple, or up to two kids who can share a bed.

Guests are limited to one parking pace in our driveway and must park at the left side of the driveway near start of private walk to the BnB's private entrance. Kitchenette has under-counter fridge, microwave, toaster oven, sink and Keurig coffee maker (no oven or stove-top).

-This is a no-smoking property; not just a no-smoking apartment. If you are a smoker, and think you can just go outside to smoke, please consider some other property. This one is not the best fit for you.
-Please note there are additional, minimal fees per-guest above a base number. Please be sure you enter the correct number of guests in the reservation. If you add more later, please notify us so we can adjust the rate.
- Children under 12 must not be left alone in apartment; kids 12-17 must not be left alone in apartment either overnight, or for long hours at a time.
- Extended stays are discounted 20%/10% (month/week), guests are responsible for paper products, trash bags, detergent during long stays.
During your stay at this guesthouse, you'll be close to University of North Carolina.
  • 13 minutes by car from Duke University and 7 minutes from University of North Carolina

Excellent Place to Stay
The property was excellent and as advertised. It's a great spot, very convenient to things, but set in a wooded neighborhood that makes it seem off the beaten path. The bed was very comfortable. We will definitely be back.

Chaple Hill Experience
The interior of the VRBO was VERY nice. We would definitely consider staying there again. But..the exterior was very unkempt. Covered with mildew & cobwebs. We were dressed for a wedding suit & gown We had to maneuver out of the unit, trying to avoid the mildew& cobwebs and dirt. It should be made to look more welcoming..

A great place with an outdoor view for a couple to relax and rest
We stayed at this quiet place for 11 days. We walked the nearby Booker Creek trial daily, leading to the Eastgate shopping mall for breakfast and an early dinner. The place has an oven and toaster but no stove to cook. That worked out for us as it made it easier to walk daily. The host Nathan was very responsive. We would stay there again.

Quiet and peaceful comfortable getaway
A private sanctuary in a quiet residential neighborhood. Access down a narrow gravel path and narrow steps, so beware. Spacious, and clean bathroom, comfortable bed. A good value!

Beautiful stay, but couldn't sleep
This place in in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood and it felt like it was in the middle of the woods, even though there were neighbors close by. My only issue is, I have trouble sleeping if conditions aren't perfect for me. The place is attached to the main house, and the porch light shines directly into the sleeping area, which has 3 walls full of sliding glass doors. It would have been better if they had put the bed in the back room (dark with no windows) and used the sleeping area as the living area. Other than that, it was a really nice place to stay.

We were happy to stay at the pleasant location that was quiet with a cabin like feel in a housing development. Much nicer waking up here than a hotel.

Spacious Quiet Refuge
Located in a quiet beautiful residential area next to a stunning walking trail, this property suited our needs. It’s a good value. Accommodations were comfortable; most importantly the bed and bath. It could use a little more attention to detail and “polish”, but we would return.
