Great House, Great Neighborhood

This house is a remodeled mid century modern house is located in a quiet, well established neighborhood in Cary. Four main things I look for in a VRBO....cleanliness, all appliances and HVAC work properly, comfortable linens/bed, and a well appointed kitchen. This property checked all those boxes and more. The house has a great outdoor space. The deck is outside and they also have an adjacent screened in porch with a great seating space and ping pong table. The kitchen was better equipped than most VRBOs. We found the location to be very convenient and quiet. A great find and we'll be back.

Peaceful & relaxing retreat

My family of four adults sibling met here for a nephew’s wedding. It was the perfect location for us to come together for different locations and celebrate this long weekend together. It was so relaxing and the beds are very comfortable! I love that each room feels like its own space, love having a TV in my room! This home is very welcoming, extremely clean, don’t hesitate to make this your next stop when traveling.

Thanksgiving away

We gather here for Thanksgiving to be with family and it was wonderful being able to have all 10 of us share a meal. The kitchen was well equipped for me to cook in a different space. We were able to play games and enjoy the day. Thank you

Absolutely amazing house! Tucked in a quiet, safe neighborhood. Like a tranquil oasis as soon as you walk in the door. Had every utensil / amenity you would ever need...and it's meticulously kept. And ping pong for the icing on the cake!

Most serene experience!

I stayed here for about a week with my husband and my daughter, and we thoroughly enjoyed our entire stay. The kitchen and bath have all the amenities that we need so we feel like at home. We spent a lot of time chilling on the covered patio, which we do not have here in Los Angeles. My anxiety and stress were completely gone while we were here. Now we want to move to Cary!

One of the Best!

One of the best properties we have ever stayed in! Precise attention to detail ever step of the way. Many modern amenities in the home. Super quiet neighborhood. Shannon communicated thoroughly throughout the process. We would stay again at the “Forrest Retreat” without hesitation.

Beautiful Home, Wonderful Stay

This was a beautiful home that met our needs perfectly. We were visiting Cary for a family wedding. The house was conveniently located to everything we needed. 5 of us stayed in the house and other family members dropped in and out. The owners have thought of everything with a well appointed kitchen, nice linens, comfortable beds, toiletries, games, and more. The furniture is beautiful and comfortable, and the layout is great. We loved the screened in porch and had lots of fun playing ping pong. The kitchen is great size with pretty much all you need for cooking in or reheating takeout. Food Lion is .5 miles away. This was a great find!

lovely house

the house was decorated beautifully with all the modern conveniences and a ping pong table for evening entertainment. Beds were very comfortable and the owner was very responsive. Unfortunately, the house has plumbing problems that were apparent from the first night. The last day we were there all the toilets clogged and the shower flooded. It is a situation that has to be attended to or else all the positive features are overwhelmed by that basic and frankly nasty problem.

Perfect in every way!

We loved everything about this house and the host! We were in a major bind when another nearby rental fell through and we contacted the host about renting their house basically by next day. Shanna replied within minutes and had it ready to go in less than 24 hours. This house is gorgeous and the accommodations were so perfect for our family with 3 kids. There weren’t any house accessories that we were worried about them knocking over. The kitchen was amazing! Had everything we needed. The master bed was so comfortable like a high end hotel! We love the screened in porch and the fenced backyard for our kids to run around. They didn’t miss a single detail with this house. We left this home saying we wish we could live there, we can’t wait to be back. Thanks for a wonderful stay!!

Nice weekend

The house was very well decorated. It was nice and clean. The yard had trees that had been cutting down and logs scattered around yard. The kitchen was not very well, equipped. It also had 3 or 4 dish towels and dish cloths. There were no cleaning items in the home to use, and no extra trash bags for the trash can, aside from one lone bag. There were a few things that were spotted upon arriving. Like a damaged blind in the master bedroom. A stain on the unsuite bath mat, small bugs, and blonde hair was left in the bathroom showers drain. Pictures were taken taken of these areas. I will attach them to my comments on Vrbo. Daily rate is too high for the amenities. Aside from these things home was very nice.

Terrific location and beautiful, comfortable home!

We wanted a central location in the Triangle area as we’re looking for a home there and also wanted to sample some of the wonderful nearby restaurants. This home was simply perfect for all of that and more! Beautifully decorated and remodeled mid century home with comfortable seating and sleeping, great open kitchen and gorgeous fireplace! These hosts thought of everything and were easy to communicate with - also very helpful. You’re going to enjoy your stay here!

This home has ALL appliances even the small.ones with TWO coffee pots. Beautiful location in a peaceful home. The beds were a little harder than our liking but other than that our girls weekend was complete staying at this home. Thank you Shanna for all you do. And sorry about the oil stain in the carport.
