Pet Friendly Tiny House in Bamboo Forest

The house was clean and in a convenient location. It has a fenced in yard but we felt we needed to still use leashes when we brought our pups out.

Visiting our UNC student

Perfect location. The Tiny House was so cute and charming. Fit our needs perfectly. Very clean and well-appointed. The fenced in yard was the highlight for my pups.

Duke graduation 2023

We had stayed in the big house twice and it was outstanding but this time just needed a little bungalow. It was just as wonderful if you don’t need the space of a bigger house. Perfect for two!!

nice idea but falling apart and really really dirty

It's a cool idea to have a small house with a fenced in yard for the dog, but there were other dogs on either side of the fences surrounding us and barking at our dog, There was also about a dozen old chewed on dirty real bones with the tendons, and muscles covered in bugs and dirt scattered around the yard that i had to clean up before I could let my dog in the yard so she wouldn't get sick eating them. The coffee maker did not work, and the heat did not work at first and the 3 hooks for towels in the bathroom all fell out of the wall. The "pull out couch" smelled moldly and was full of dirty moldy sheets when I opened it. The main bed was also dirty and smelly and the "mattress" was just a dirty foam that sunk in the middle so two people couldn't even sleep in it together. There was also no sponge for dishes, no dish rack, no dish washer, and no counter space to put dishes or rack. It was a cute place with a cute yard, but not worth it.

This Property was Filthy

This property was filthy!! Had we had any other option we would not have stayed. We spent two hours stripping the bed and cleaning the place. I had to vacuum debris from the mattress and spray it with disinfectant so we could sleep in it. It took more than 3 hours to wash and dry the bed linens in the tiny washer/dryer combo. The counters were dirty and the bathroom floor around the toilet was nasty. Dishes were returned to the cabinets with food residue on them. There were spider webs throughout and numerous small wood spiders. The porch and outdoor chairs were so dirty, they were not usable. We have stayed in VRBO/Air B&B properties all over the country and this is our first negative experience. To say we were disappointed is an understatement.
