NO SMOKING There is NO SMOKING on the property. **The parking for the bus is approximately 100 yards from the bus doors** Poppy is a 1994 40 ft school bus that has been converted into a charming living space. It has a school bus height ceiling so if you’re over 6’2” you may have a problem standing up straight in some spots. I do however have very comfortable seating and it’s usually not a problem for the taller folks. **Please note the couch is sized for a bus, pulls out into a very small double bed. If you’re over 6” and sleeping with a partner, it will definitely require snuggling** She is parked ( I still drive her at times) at the back of the property surrounded by a small cottage, pond, flower and vegetable gardens and a large fire pit. Private setting away from the main house, peaceful and quiet. Guest will not have access to the cottage and other outbuildings located on the property. Enjoyment of the bus and outdoor space is highly encouraged. ;-) Guest are welcome to use the fire pit, wood is located under the barn lean to. We live on the property and are available as needed. We spend a lot of time outdoors working in the gardens and playing with our dogs, you will most likely see us. The bus is located in rural Saxapahaw, about a 15-20 min drive to Carrboro, and Chapel Hill. Approx a 20-30 min drive to downtown Pittsboro, Graham and Greensboro. Enjoy the local scene here in Saxapahaw with coffee at Cup 22, beer at Haw River Farmhouse Ales and great food at The General Store, The Eddy and Reverence Farm Cafe.

She has electricity, two window unit air conditioners and running water... however; it is a school bus! :-) * The couch is sized for a bus and pulls out into a small double bed. Comfortably sleeps 1 adult or 2 children. * During the summer she can get warm during the middle of the day if the curtains are open. Keeping the curtains closed and using the fans are tremendously helpful in keeping it cool during hotter months. * You WILL see insects- * If too many electrical appliances are running at the same time- (hairdryers, coffee pot, fan, heater, etc...) it will trip the circuit. Please be aware of this when running the appliances. *The water is held in a 40 gallon tank, it may need a refill during your stay. *The toilet is a real COMPOSTING toilet. No flushing, very clean and simple to use. * Please wash any dishes that are used * Please remove shoes upon entering the bus We live on the property and you will see us working in the gardens, coming and going.
