My father, daughter and myself came to NC from KY for a quick weekend visit with family. This cottage is so charming and was perfect for our stay. We all had our own space and the shared living spaces were comfy and spacious. The kitchen is fully stocked, the yard is charming and the beds were comfy. We didn't spend much time in the house because we were on the go but it was the perfect place to crash at night for showers and some tv and reading in our jammies. I'm only sad we didn't stay longer. We didn't get to explore Wake Forest much but it seems charming and this place is close to any restaurants/amenities you might need. Thanks for sharing your home with us!
