We booked The Patio Pad when our previous booking canceled us due to double-booking. Honestly, that's the best thing that could've happened since we lucked up and found this listing. The house is everything described in the listing and MORE. It's very clean and well-maintained. It's very well-stocked and has everything you'll need to enjoy your stay. It's in a quiet and safe neighborhood. We had every bed filled but did not feel crowded at all. It was too hot to use the great Patio during the day, but we really enjoyed having our morning coffee there listening to the birds and watching the bunny zoomies in the yard while it was cooler. Checking in and out was super easy, and Debra was the perfect host. If we ever need to book a large family gathering in Raleigh again, we will definitely stay here.

About the host

Hosted by Debra

Host profile image
We moved to Wake Forest in 2010, right as we were starting to build our family (I was pregnant with my first). As soon as I had my daughter, I decided to leave the workforce and focus on taking care of my family and house. Through the years I have filled my time with volunteering throughout the community. I am very active in the school's PTA, organize all of the social activities in my neighborhood (and we do lots!), and taught Sunday School when the kids were younger.
In the past few years, I have really developed a love for real estate investing. In my spare time, I love reading/listening/learning all things real estate and financial literacy (my nerdy side can't help it!). I take pride in my houses and in treating my tenants well.

Why they chose this property

I love real estate and I love hosting, so putting the two together seemed natural. In the past, I have only been involved in long term rentals and just ventured upon the short term rental world recently. I love the need it fills when you have outgrown the small space of a hotel room with no kitchen. I love the personal connections you make and the personal touches you can add when hosting short stays.

What makes this property unique

Heated toilet seats are literally one of my favorite things in life! Each bathroom is equipped with one. If you have never tried one...your tush will thank you :)
