250 ROOM FOR RENT 250mo, 65wk, or 10day (Bahama, NC) hide this posting unhide

QR Code Link to This Post My girlfriend and I have a small bedroom in a trailer that we'd like to share for $250/month (utilities included) with a non-smoker. Some have contacted me about shorter-term stays, so I will also rent the room for $65/week or $10/day as long as the money is paid up front. The room is yours to do as you like (as long as it's not damaging), and the rest of the space is mine to organize as I like which I'll share with any renters (except my room, of course). It's an old trailer (80's model), but clean and cozy. The location is peaceful, 20 min. from Durham, 35 min. from Duke, and 5-10 min. away (easily bike-able) from 2 different, scenic lakes (Lake Michie; Holt Reservoir). No washer or dryer, though I'm exploring old-fashioned ways of accomplishing this. No wifi, but you're welcome to get it in your name if desired (I use the library). Though the trailer has great AC, heat, electricity, plumbing, etc, I'm passionate about low-impact living, so you'd need to be excited about very simple living here as well. This means turning off lights when you leave a room, using fans or being outside in the shade instead of using AC (except for the HOTTEST days), and generally being very mindful about water, electricity, and other resources. Know the difference between use and waste. I occasionally have ants, wasps, spiders, even a bat who visits. We co-exist peacefully. If you feel the need to kill critters like this, this is not the space for you.

I'm an Outdoor Educator who works other jobs between programs. I am an early riser and, though I try to be quiet, it's a trailer and you'll hear me which could be a problem if you're a light sleeper who likes to sleep late. I'll be doing some foraging wild plants, scavenging useful items which I am slowly furnishing the trailer with, and learning about alternative ways of meeting my needs. I always have a stocked kitchen with food to share, so you'll never starve here :-) I am a 41 yr. old man with 1 dog.

I have found the need to require a $250 non-refundable deposit if you're staying a month or more, since folks have been pretty slack about giving me much notice when they leave which can put me in a bind paying my bills. That's $500 for the 1st month, $250 for any months after that for those of you as bad at math as I am ;-) I also ask tenants to sign a paper stating that you'll give me a month's notice before leaving. Contact if interested to come out, see the place, meet me, my girlfriend, and my.
