No matter what you're in town for it's only minutes away when you stay at The Durham Bull Pen!
I could go on about how amazing the area is but I would rather tell you a story about the magic of Downtown Durham. Around two decades ago I met a beautiful girl while I was in school at NC State. I wanted to do something fun and take her out for a great time so we got tickets to a Durham Bulls season opener on Friday with fireworks planned for after the game. The weather was perfect and the evening air was crisp but the Bulls weren’t doing well as we had hoped. We started to see people getting up to leave early as the Bulls were down 2 runs in the bottom of the 9th inning and the game was slipping away. We looked at each other and both just wanted the evening to continue as our first date was going well. Then the Durham Bulls started a comeback and loaded the bases. I will never forget the sound of that ball coming off the bat in the bottom of the 9th inning when BJ Upton hit a walk off grand slam to win the game sending it over the Bull on the billboard in left field. The Bull’s eye’s on the billboard lit up red and smoke rolled out of his nose as we all cheered and the fireworks started going off in celebration. The atmosphere was pure magic, and I knew then and there that I had found something special. Today that beautiful girl is my wife and we have been blessed with 2 children. We always knew that Durham was magic and now we have been blessed with this opportunity in the perfect location for anything you need in downtown Durham. Come stay at the “Durham Bull Pen”. Setup home base at the Bull Pen then it's your turn to experience the magic, make some new memories, and have fun with your group!
“The Durham Bull Pen” is your place to come relax and base out of before exploring downtown Durham.
We celebrate the rich history of the Durham Bulls and have included some fun throwback jerseys and other vintage baseball items in the decor. There is also a vintage Japanese coin operated slot machine for lots of fun with friends and family during your stay.
While you're here make sure to check out the epic food and beer scene in downtown Durham! There are some of the best in the nation right around the corner in downtown Durham! We keep finding more and more amazing spots to share and hidden gems so close to us.
If you have any questions, please reach out! We are here for you.
Booking is for the entire private home and partially fenced lot.
We love our guests but value their privacy. I'm always available if needed.
Street parking is easily available and there is a dedicated spot in the driveway.
Please contact us with any questions or for recommendations on local fare and fun things around us. We are always happy to help where we can.
We are getting this property started and always appreciate helpful feedback! If anything isn't right or what you were expecting please let us know right away and we will always make our best efforts to resolve the situation to your satisfaction. We aren't perfect but we aim to be. ;]
