Vacation rentals in Durham

The bungalow was a nice place for a personal retreat. The use of space was inspiring. The first day I glamped out on the screened-in porch because I loved being surrounded by all the trees and birdsongs. The sounds of nature were delightful and softened the sounds from I-40. (Wearing my Air Pods greatly reduced the highway noise while on the back deck.) Due to the rainy weather I didn't walk the trail or use the sauna. The compost toilet was a bit out of my comfort zone, but it wasn't a huge issue since I traveled alone. However, I would really have to love someone to share this type of toileting arrangement. Overall, I enjoyed my peaceful stay.

For me this was a great experience! She has a great space to cook in. Her back yard was open and airy. The bed was very comfortable and Kay was quick to respond to my questions. I would definitely look forward to booking again.

This is our second stay. This is one of our favorite Airbnb’s! The kitchen is fully stocked with everything we needed. The beds are comfortable and the entire place is very clean. The trails around the property are beautiful and my kids love to see the chickens! Mike is quick to respond to any messages. Plan to stay again :)

I really enjoyed staying at Katherine’s. The home is very beautiful, cozy, and clean. I really enjoyed the amenities and backyard. I highly recommend it to others visiting Durham for the first time. It’s close to everything

I got in quite late and was greeted at my car by a cat who led me right to the front door, five star service :) Convenient location in a cute neighborhood.

We needed a pet friendly place near our daughter's wedding venue in downtown Durham. We had fun, frenetic days, and it was wonderful to come back to a quiet neighborhood and beautiful home to both relax and reflect. Bill is a very friendly, communicative host, and the surroundings are just beautiful! We would highly recommend this home to anyone needing to be anywhere in the RTP area! Thanks so much for providing this welcoming space for the most wonderful (and emotional) few days we've had in a very long time!!

Here is the text for the review because I know you don’t wanna do it Natasha 😝 This home was extremely well stocked. The host had thought of everything at this lovely home. Check in was easy. We were welcomed by homemade cookies, eggs from the farm, milk, orange juice, bread and more. The home was very clean. Plenty of towels and the robes in each room was a nice touch! The hosts were very friendly and responsive. My friends brought their three little dogs who also enjoyed the stay while watching the cows, sheep, and goats on the farm!

Great house and decor minutes to downtown Durham. Easily walkable to many points of interest. House was spotless, would definitely recommend!

Wonderful hosts and a great place to stay for a couple of days! Easy check-in and check-out, had local trails in the area to explore with my dog, and the house was comfortable and cozy my entire stay. Thank you, Jim and Donna, for your extraordinary hospitality on such short notice!

Very peaceful, quiet, charming house! It was perfect for my family, with two young children, while we were in town visiting family.

Emily’s home was bright, comfortable, and set in a beautiful, leafy neighborhood filled with trees and gardens. The setting was peaceful and quiet, yet just a pleasant 15-minute walk from downtown Durham’s vibrant mix of restaurants, cafés, and bars. A perfect introduction to Durham’s relaxed and welcoming vibe.

The apartment was clean and well furnished. The climate and bed were comfortable. The kitchen was fully equipped for meal prep and eating. The location was quiet and seemed rather private to us. Candace replied to every email or text we sent and was friendly and so helpful! I recommend this place to anyone staying in the area.

Kathryn's place is cozy, quiet and very clean. Perfect place is you are visiting UNC. Kathryn was very responsive and kind. Highly recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the yurt! Linda will be the first to warn you that this is more like camping than a hotel, but there is something very special about this place.

We spent a couple of nights here while visiting family. This is a lovely little private spot. Very clean, comfortable and has the amenities anyone would need. Surrounded by birds and nature yet very close to restaurants and things to do. Susan was very helpful and friendly. You won't be disappointed if you book this spot. We hope to come back!

Ellen’s place was the perfect home base for a few days in Durham! Her apartment was even more beautiful and cozy than I imagined, and felt like home. I chose to use the loft bed which is a small space tucked away up some stairs - may not be for everyone but I loved it. The apartment is also right in Downtown Durham and it was easy to find food within walking distance. Finally, Ellen was the perfect host, friendly and responsive. A great spot for solo travelers visiting town!

Great weekend getaway! A short uber/bus ride away from downtown Durham. Lola had a list of their favorite local spots which was very helpful for choosing where to go during our time in Durham! Highly recommend this cottage for a weekend getaway!

Pavel’s place was super chill—peaceful, spacious, and really cozy. I had a great time there. The whole vibe was like a modern cabin, with a projector for movies, which was awesome. The bathroom had a cool design, and the bookshelves were a great touch. If you're into quiet spots and nature, this place is perfect. Pavel was also helpful and responsive as well.

Great spot in town, very close to the main street. Lovely stay with lots of privacy and very clean. Easy to get in with a door code. Overall a great stay! Id recommend it to anyone!

Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The suite was stocked and clean and the pool and hot tub were awesome! Angela and Bobby certainly exceeded expectations. I highly recommend this Airbnb!!!

This was a perfect home-base for me on a recent work/play visit to Durham—quiet and safe neighborhood; tidy, well-appointed kitchen; minimalist but sufficient space in which to read, relax, etc., and short walks to downtown & Duke’s East Campus.

Stephen is literally THE BEST host I’ve ever had the pleasure of staying with on Airbnb! He is friendly, helpful, and fantastic. His place is so inviting and interesting to stay at. Tidbits and cool relics all over his space. And if that alone isn’t enough, his sanctuary of a backyard garden will be what sets his place apart from the rest. His place is now one of my favorite saves that I will definitely try to book again in the future should I ever be in the area.

If you're traveling solo, this is an ideal crash pad. It's small and spartan, and you'll need to drive to get anywhere you want to go, but it's clean, comfortable and quiet. There are nice, small touches that lend a homey feel, and the one window AC unit does a good job of cooling the entire place, even when it's above 90 outside. I'll definitely look to stay here again when I pass through Durham.

Had a great stay with Emily the place is secluded, relaxing and exactly what I needed at the end of a long week of work and travel. First time staying in a tiny home and I had everything i needed. Really enjoyed the hot tub it might be the best one I have ever been in. This tiny home makes you feel as though you are miles from anywhere in your own little oasis and yet it is conveniently located to get to shops and restaurants. Joe
