Comfortable Home
We were very busy during our stay. Our son had three graduation ceremonies in three days. So it was nice to have a comfortable place to come back to and relax.

Highland Comfort perfect for families
We rented this home to share with our adult children and their 2 very young grandchildren for a local family wedding weekend. The house was better equipped than any I have previously rented! Everything about the house was clean. There were so many toys/books/yard play items for the older almost 3 year old to stay occupied. Our host responded immediately to all inquiries. Renting this home for a family with younger children was so, so superior to staying in hotels. We highly recommend this VRBO!

Neighborhood getaway
Anna was always quick to respond. The house was very clean and comfortable. It was a perfect place for my husband our grown up daughters and our 2 dogs to stay for a few days while we were visiting family in Chapel Hill. I will definitely stay there again.

Great place to stay in Chapel Hill - 5 Rating
We greatly enjoyed our stay at "Highland Comfort". It provided a very cozy stay for us as we attended a wedding in the area. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. We took many walks throughout the neighborhood and found the neighbors to be kind and thoughtful... with many dogs (all well behaved and on leashes... helped us as we were missing our two golden retrievers) In regards to the house... the instructions were clear and the space laid out nicely. One bedroom is accessed by walking through another bedroom. This worked great for us... and would be fantastic with small children. In summary, we would stay at this property again! We had a fantastic time in Chapel Hill and this property added to the great experience.

Weekend Stay
It was a great home for our purposes. We were in town for a wedding so it was a short stay. The yard was huge, completely fenced in, there were a lot of items for children- books, toys, bouncy seat, pack and play for visitors to use. The deck was a great place to socialize between the wedding and reception. It was close to every where we needed to be but at the same time it felt private. Minutes from grocery store, CVS pharmacy, McDonalds and a sub shop plus more. It was a great place to stay.

Great family spot!
This house is perfect if you're traveling with children. It has a pack and play as well as a toddler bed, and there are some toys and books suitable for children. So nice not to have to pack those things! Anna is very communicative and goes above and beyond as a host. Would highly recommend!
