This was a great stay for our little family. You could not even tell you were in such close proximity to Raleigh. My daughter saw deer, ducks, geese, and fish! The host was very responsive and accommodated anything we needed for the week. If you’re looking for a getaway while you’re in Raleigh, you don’t have to look far!

Fantastic yard, a cool old house, a beautiful fire pit on the lake, and a great location. We had a wonderful stay there. No dining room table, so that was different, but we enjoyed eating in the living room, taking in the view and each other's company. I would stay again anytime!

Stay at the cabin

The listing is spot on with the real time depiction of the property. It’s in a tucked away corner of Raleigh. The property itself is beautiful, and the host Abby was receptive and reliable. We will definitely make this a yearly trip!

This place was lovely! A perfect, peaceful short getaway. It’s a great find for the price and could sleep many more. It would be wonderful for a larger family gathering. It’s close to everything; downtown with plenty of restaurants and historic sites, near lots of trails and spots to enjoy nature. There were a few things that could be cleaner, including the fire pit. Everything else was nearly perfect. Overall, I’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great Property for Get Away!

For our conference, we opted to not stay at the host hotel and that was the best decision!! This property had everything we needed and the backyard and deck was able to accommodate visiting guests!! Grilling outside with lake view was awesome!! Very convenient to convention center.
