Groovy Cary Crib - Pickleball, Pets & Plug-In 4 EV
You know that feeling when you’ve been “on” for so long that even rest feels like work? This is where that stops.
This home is designed so you can unwind—easy check-in, spotless care, two separate living areas, and warm, inviting spaces to spread out. Everything already handled; you can relax without overthinking a thing.
Sleep deeply on premium cooling beds, unwind outside, and enjoy your time here without second-guessing your choice.
Just minutes from Cary, Raleigh, RTP, and RDU.
We created this home because we were tired of rentals that looked good online but felt stressful in real life. Here, nothing is accidental. The flow makes sense, the spaces breathe, and the details quietly support rest instead of demanding attention.
Out front, a 100-year-old oak tree sets the tone. When we first saw it, we knew exactly what it needed: a proper swing. The kind you remember from childhood. The kind where conversations slow down and shoulders finally drop. Guests consistently tell us it’s everyone’s favorite part of the stay.
Inside, the home offers four bedrooms that comfortably sleep eight—without anyone feeling stacked on top of each other. The layout balances togetherness and privacy, making it easy to gather when you want and retreat when you need quiet.
Whether you’re gathering for a meaningful celebration, a girls’ weekend, or a busy weekend of events, the house is designed to make being together feel easy.
Sleep (This Is the Point)
We don’t treat sleep as an afterthought—because tired people don’t need “cute,” they need real rest.
Every bed is intentionally layered for deep, uninterrupted sleep:
Guests regularly describe the sleep as “heaven.” One guest loved the setup so much she asked for purchasing details for everything on the bed so she could recreate it at home.
Bathrooms are stocked with Apotheke shampoo, conditioner, and bath gel—plant-based with calming notes of eucalyptus, crisp bergamot, and chamomile. It’s the kind of scent that makes you slow down instead of rushing through.
Layout & Bedrooms
This 1960s split-level offers approximately 2,000 square feet laid out in a way that actually works.
Primary bedroom: King bed with ensuite bath
Bedroom 2: King bed
Bedroom 3: Queen bed
Bedroom 4: Two twin beds
The communal areas feel open but grounded, and the kitchen stays connected so coffee, meals, and conversation happen naturally.
Outdoor Spaces
The outdoor areas are designed for both movement and stillness:
Mini pickleball court when you need to burn off energy
Shady hammock under the oaks for afternoon naps
Brick courtyard with seating around a linear fire pit
Bistro lights over the patio for long, unhurried evenings
Outdoor grill for meals under the stars
Large grassy backyard that dogs absolutely love
At the base of the oak, you’ll also meet Woo, Hoo, and Kazoo—three ceramic frogs positioned like they’re cheering you on as you arrive. It’s a small, joyful detail that makes people smile every time.
Tech & Essentials
Super-fast Google Fiber Wi-Fi
Two large Samsung smart TVs
Dedicated workspace for remote work
Fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances
Washer and dryer
Electronic keypad entry (fully key-free)
Level 2 EV charging: 250V NEMA 14-50 outlet (up to 50 amps; no J1772 adapter on site)
Tesla Supercharger approximately 3.2 miles away

There was SO much to do in this area! Came to visit colleges…went on trail runs, hiked, ropes course, Dave & busters, bakeries!, wrgmans, and family pickle ball. Cozy sectional for family movies nights. House clean and cozy beds. Great all around!
The house had a great floor plan and a nice interior.We were very comfortable and everybody was able to have their space.The backyard was perfect for the children and a great place to hang out.
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this vacation rental! From the moment we arrived, everything was spotless, welcoming, and exactly as described. The home was beautifully decorated, cozy, and equipped with all the essentials you could need for a relaxing getaway.The location was perfect — peaceful and quiet, yet just a short drive to local attractions, restaurants, and shops. The host was outstanding — responsive, thoughtful, and made check-in incredibly smooth. They truly went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable.We can't recommend this place enough and will definitely be returning on our next trip to the area. If you're looking for a relaxing retreat with all the comforts of home, this is the place!
