Perfect Spot, Clean, and Great Hosts
We are moving to the area and needed a place to stay where our daughter could have her own room. The Owl's Nest was exceptionally clean. We were in a great location and a short drive from all the areas we were looking at. The Hosts were spectacular. It was a colder time of year, and they ensured we kept warm. We used their Pack N play, and it was great that they offered this as an option. All parents know lugging a Travel Crib through the airport is no fun. They even went out of their way to get a thicker mattress so our little one would sleep better. We cannot recommend this place enough!!

Beautiful stay on a horse farm
Dale and Gwyn’s place was very clean and comfortable. It was a lot of fun watching the horses in the fields surrounding the house. It is so peaceful that you don’t even realize that you are so close to Greensboro and many amenities. We hope to return when visiting family in Greensboro.

Would stay again - highly recommend!
Check in was easy. Owners were super easy to work with. Horses were visible through almost every window in the place at some point in the day or another. We ate on the back deck a couple times and the horses were just a dozen feet away. The kids, wife and I all really enjoyed ourselves. Feels very secluded yet you’re not far from Greensboro proper and the Interstate.

Beautiful Setting
The property was absolutely stunning. I was looking for a place that felt a little bit rustic, cozy, and peaceful and this was absolutely the perfect place. So close to everything and convenient to Greensboro, but tucked away from it all. The horses walking right outside the windows were spectacular to watch. For me having the host on the property was perfect and the house itself was super comfortable and stocked with everything we needed for our stay.

We recently stayed at this home while celebrating our daughter's graduation from Elon. It was about a 20-minute drive to campus. The house was clean, the beds comfortable and we could enjoy watching the horses in the mornings and evenings.

Lovely farm stay with convenient downtown proximity
This was our 2nd stay at the Owl's Nest and we couldn't imagine staying anywhere else while visiting Greensboro. The house has all the comforts of home and none of the inconvenience of a hotel stay. The house is very clean and comfortable, the property is very quiet and totally picturesque. Highly recommend!
