Description
We have eight acres of land in the city limits of Chapel Hill next to a city park with a dog park. Much of our land is open pasture land with a farm pond and wooded areas. We live across the street from county and university undeveloped land with hiking and biking trails. The University of NC campus is 10 minutes away either by car, by bike, or by free city bus service. Grocery stores are also minutes away. Duke University is about 20 minutes away by car. UNC and Duke hospitals are less than 20 minutes away.
House Rules
No tobacco use on the property. No firearms of any kind allowed. Be advised that we have a farm pond that children could drown in. Small children MUST be supervised. Quiet hours are required between 10 pm and 7 am.
Access Road Conditions
We have a 1/4 mile single lane gravel drive that slopes down to cross a stream. There are low hanging branches that might be a problem for taller and wider rigs. There are right angle turns that must be negotiated. This site is not suitable for large rigs.

Lovely Spot
Peaceful, convenient spot spend the night just a few miles from downtown Chapel Hill. Very wet here lately, so our hostess helped us with a high and dry spot to park on her property. Our dog really enjoyed the dog park that was an easy walk from the property. Thank you TientsinMama for making our first BW stay a successful one.

Sylvia and Don made me feel welcomed from the time I arrived. I had some rv issues that Sylvia helped me with.
The spot was secluded and safe. They also provided a dumping station. Very convenient and it's not too often places offer this accommodation.
Thank you Sylvia and Don.
Godspeed

Wow!
Great place, especially being the first location we stopped after joining Boondockers Welcome. Sylvia was very welcoming, the property is beautiful and the site was peaceful. Thank you Sylvia.

Peaceful place
TientsinMama hosted me for two nights, even though I booked one! My bird needed to see a avian veterinarian in Durham, and this was any easy location to get to and from. The place was very quiet and peaceful with lots of trees, birds, rabbits, around an open field. I was near a small tree and had a nice breeze coming in. The hosts are nice, super friendly...despite having a pandemic going on, they were able to communicate where to park. I’d love to visit again someday.

Beautiful spot!
This is a lovely and convenient spot. The hosts are great and very interesting folks. They greeted us upon arrival and gave us a sheet with helpful local information. Their property is beautiful and we got a tour of their rig, his wood shop and her coy pond. We hope they will come to New England to stay at our place so we can see them again! We would also be happy to come back to Chapel Hill to stay here again.
