Perfect spot for a weekend visit

This is our second time starting at this cute property and it was just as perfect as last time. Our daughter loves the “secret” Lot and our pups have a blast in the fenced in backyard. My husband and I appreciate the central location and always enjoy coming back to a fire in the fire pit.

Excellent stay. Cute home!

I loved the simple yet modern chic charm of this home. Everything was in great condition, it is decorated beautifully, beds were comfy! We stated here for a short getaway at the end of summer break for its central location to the nearby museums. The backyard is fenced- always a plus when traveling with your fur child. The place was super clean as well.

Comfortable House

The listing was accurate. The house was clean and very comfortable. The fenced in backyard was perfect for our dog. The only drawback was that the location was on a main road making exiting the property a little tricky. The bedroom we used was in the back so the noise was minimal. There is adequate parking in the driveway. Would recommend.

Great home in a great location in Raleigh

This house was perfect for our trip to Raleigh. We came into town for Brewgaloo and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. House was clean, comfortable and location-wise, you are minutes from downtown. It is also dog-friendly, so we were able to bring our pup with us and the fenced in yard was an amazing perk! The next time we head to Raleigh, we will definitely try and stay here again.

Perfect location for a weekend back in my home town

We loved staying at this little house for our weekend back in my home town. The location was perfect! Walkable to restaurants and bars…even Snoopys! And it was an easy drive to Carter Finley for the game. Our dogs loved the fenced in yard and we enjoyed the fire pit. Anne is a great host and the house had everything we needed. We will definitely rent here again!

Cozy and Comfortable

A perfect amount of space for two adult couples. Very clean and comfortable. Check on and check out easy. Within easy walking distance to Crabtree Creek Trails for relaxed shaded strolls. On a busy street but parking off the street allowed for easy access. Upper room allowed space to spread out for individual private time. Would return if back in the RDU area.

Comfortable little house

This house was so perfect for us! We enjoyed the fire pit in the back and it had everything we needed. Comfortable all the way around, we slept great. House is 3 blocks away from a great coffee shop and a few great places to eat. Highly recommend and Anne was a great host. Fridge was stocked with cold water and there were some snacks which helped hold us over after our flight.
