UNC Trip
Group of friends stayed here for the weekend to see the football game. We had a great time and the house was more than large enough to fit 6 adults very comfortably! Everything worked and it was super clean. House is located close to anything you would need just like staying at your own home. Highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a home away from home!!!

High School friends yearly reunion.
Plenty of space, large kitchen, clean bedrooms. Most of the time spent watching week one of the NFL season and the Tvs were more than adequate to fill our needs. The walking path was great to walk off all the food we ate.

Great house in a great neighborhood
This beautiful and spacious home nestled is gorgeous neighborhood. The home was in close proximity to a ton of restaurants and shopping and a short drive to UNC chapel hill or Duke university. The house was very clean and had a ton of space. 6 spacious bedrooms as promised. Just 3 TVs in this huge house and only the master room is equipped with a TV. All other bedrooms just bed, closet space and desks. The theater room was a neat set up but could not get the projector or screen working to actually use it. Beds were comfortable. A/C was amazing as we kept the house at a cool 62 degrees while it was over 90 outside. Enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay again.

Beautiful home
The home was exactly as described. It was big and gorgeous. Plenty of room for my family. The patio got the most use out of our stay. We did have to buy duct tape for the screens as insects kept getting in. Property manager answered every call to address some small issues. She said she would send someone but no one showed up. Such as slow draining tub in basement and no light in master bedroom toilet room. I didn't bother to keep calling as we made due. The overall experience outweighed those concerns. Everyone had a wonderful time and we would definitely DEFINITELY stay again.

Super Spatious, Lovely House
There were 7 adults attending a conference in Chapel Hill (17 min drive away) and we each had our own room, plus a large kitchen and tons of living space, all for the price of one hotel room in CH! We played games and made cookies in the evenings and had a blast! We would definitely come back here!

Booked this for a weekend getaway as it was central to the courses the group was playing. The house was absolutely beautiful and tastefully decorated. It was very clean and obviously well cared for. The screened in room so peaceful, it was a great place to both start and end the day. Would absolutely book this again when in the area! Thank you!

Perfect Wedding Weekend Respite
Our extended family recently stayed at Home Away from Home for my neice's wedding weekend, and it was the perfect selection for a peaceful, family-filled retreat as we prepared for and experienced the special day. Great location, lovely walks, large kitchen for cooking, many sleeping areas, and an in-home theater made our time away truly special. I highly recommend this property and owner.

Huge house
It was a great stay with plenty of space for family. Most of the things we needed were there which was good. Some chairs need to be replaced but overall our stay was great. The host was very accommodating to our family and changes we needed with our reservations or things that need to get fixed. We will definitely keep this place in mind for our family and friends to use when they are visiting the area.

Nice house in a nice area
This house was very spacious and in a great neighborhood. It really worked well for our needs and had plenty of space to be together and places to spread out. The neighborhood quiet. lovely, close to a lot, and has a great walking trail. The host was responsive and helpful. Our overall assessment was that the property was great but the house needs some love in the form of newer/better-maintained furnishings and/or a deep clean.

So Much Space & Comfort!
Our family of 7 attended my nephew's wedding in the Chapel Hill area and we could not have found a nicer, comfortable and spacious place to stay! Every time we opened a door there was another bedroom or bathroom! There is a movie theater in the finished basement with surround sound, movie seats and stocked with some of the classic movies on DVD. Off the huge kitchen is a beautiful sun room and a screened in deck which my wife enjoyed taking a few short naps on the comfy couch on the deck. There is a walking path next to the house which leads to a lake that my kids liked to walk around. And when the day of the wedding came, we had so many bathrooms, nobody had to wait to get in one and we made it to the church on time! When we come through the area again we hope to stay at HOME AWAY FROM HOME again! - Jim & Monica, NJ

Plenty of Space
House has more than ample space for the number of occcupants allowed. Our party had 11. The children had plenty of play space inside, they loved the theater room. The house is next to a walking path maintained by the City. The path is senic and safe and a great place to get aquainted with the environment. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms plentiful and an outdoor screened porch for sitting. Would recommend for large group.

Only one issue
It was random but in our visit we needed a plunger and the app wasn't working so I could message her. But she did leave me her phone number but I didn't see it until after we left but I felt like the fee was a bit excessive for the clogged toilet and we did have to clean floor with the towels so I get being charged but $150. Also claimed house smelled like vomit but no one threw up. All this would have been a non issue if I saw her phone number as she was very responsive when the app was working
