Forest Garden Retreat 20 Minutes from Chapel Hill | Pittsboro, NC

This is such a cute but elegant cottage. The inside is so clean and laid out perfectly for a weekend getaway. I love the fine details on the porch and the architectural style of the home, it was designed and built by Robert Phillips. With the 10 ft ceilings and tons of windows, it boasts natural light despite being nestled in the woods. The home features a bedroom, bathroom, living space, kitchen, and dining area. The property has various paths and a couple of fountains to really add to the ‘retreat’ feel. I can’t imagine how peaceful it’d be to sit on the porch listening to the sounds of nature and trickling water.

Book your stay at this property

There are a ton of open dates! I even thought about booking a few nights at such a great price.

This seems like the perfect place to focus on yourself or even get back on track with your creative hobbies. I could see this as a good spot for a writers retreat.

Read what the past guests had to say about this Airbnb:

  • This is a truly remarkable place. It looks gorgeous in the photos, but it’s so much more beautiful in person – and so, so calming. I came in to do some writing and de-stress for just one day and it did me a world of good. I really cannot recommend it highly enough, especially if you’re looking to work on a creative project.
  • We really enjoyed our stay at David’s home, Forest Garden. The home is extremely comfortable and we really enjoyed the peaceful location and surroundings. We walked the footpath to the creek in the evening and enjoyed the fireflies. The home is well laid out for a couple. We appreciated the provisions of coffee, tea and snacks. The 20 minute drive into Chapel Hill is easy and scenic. Would definitely recommend this rental, and we hope to stay here again in the future.

Something to note before booking, pets are allowed here! The home sits on 10 acres about 15-20 minutes from Chapel Hill and about 40 minutes from RDU.
