Property was clean , comfortable and easy to access. Darla, host, was always quick to respond to questions, gave excellent suggestions for a neighborhood meal, and genuinely seemed to care about our experience. We would stay again if in the area, and have informed our family in Raleigh of our agreeable stay here.

Darla‘s house was extremely clean well organized and comfortable. We spent quite a bit of time in the house as we were three friends who hadn’t seen each other in a couple of years and we wanted to catch up. It was the perfect space for that. Additionally, it was close to downtown with fun, restaurants, and coffee shops.

Great stay and lovely home. The location was great and was about a 15 min drive of all the hot spots we were here for, including NC State and Meredith College and local shopping districts and airport. In addition, it was about a mile walk to Museum of Natural Sciences, Morgan Street Food Hall, Downtown parks, etc. The house was well stocked, very clean and comfortable. Check in was a breeze and the host was amazing. There were no TVs in the main bedrooms, but the large TV and living space downstairs was great for family time. The kitchen was great and we enjoyed some home cooked meals in addition to the local restaurants.

The location was excellent for our needs. The neighborhood was quiet and a very easy walk in and out of Downtown Raleigh. The house was well equipped with most essentials and Walmart was a very easy drive to get snacks and other items we wanted to have on hand. We will definitely be keeping this place on our list of returns.
