See What Our Guests Are Saying
"From the moment we pulled in the driveway we felt right at home! Beautiful house! Checking in was super easy. The house was spotless inside. The fire pit was perfect for evening s'mores and relaxing. A few things that stood out to us were the heated toilet seats, adjustable bed frames, and all of the kitchen supplies we needed! Debra was incredibly friendly and her Comfy Corner page was over the top! Very helpful with listing restaurants and grocery stores nearby! We couldn't have been happier with our stay here and would definitely come back again!" – Ashley
"This was my first time ever renting an Airbnb and what a great first experience it was. It definitely set the standard for what I will look for in the future. The place was absolutely wonderful and my family all enjoyed our stay." – Jorge

Great location. It was perfect for getting together with family including a 93 year old mother for a family marriage. Backyard and porch was a great place for conversation.
This was a very welcoming place to stay!! Would stay again. Highly recommend!! Very spacious, had everything we needed, nice complimentary snacks, fenced in backyard (a major bonus). Nice and quiet neighborhood!Debra was extremely responsive!!!!
Such a beautiful home and space for our group to all stay together for a friend’s wedding weekend. We loved how all four bedrooms had king size beds. The home had so much space for our group of 7 to spread out, whether that was around the tv in the living room or outside by the fire pit. The house was spotless and truly so comfortable!
property was very user friendly for my family while we were in Wake Forrest for my daughters wedding. We were conveniently between downtown and the wedding venue
We were looking for a space for our family to stay while we were in town for our son’s wedding. This was the perfect place for us to stay together. Home was spacious and clean. Host provided excellent communication and our stay was flawless!
If I could give 6 stars I would. This home was spotless and had everything we needed and then some! Debra went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay. The backyard was a highlight, as we sat by the firepit each evening. I highly recommend this house.
Debra was easy to communicate with and her property was amazing. A very convenient and clean stay for a family of 7. Added bonus was king sized beds in all rooms.
Debra was beyond helopfull and kind. Great communication and first class amenities as well as a guide to licsl attractions and shoping. HIGHLY Recommend renting from these folks!

Thank you so much Neil! I hope to have you back at one of our properties in the future :)
We loved staying at your property. Everything you provided was thoughtful and easy. We appreciated the puppy materials, so kind. Very “comfy” getaway. We will be back.
Great location, extremely clean and plenty of room for the family.
Debra the owner provided excellent communication and all necessary details for an enjoyable stay. The property was extremely clean, a very nice back porch with comfortable seating for morning coffee, large rooms and plenty of seating for our family. The kitchen literally has everything you need and everything is Laney and tidy. The neighbor is quiet, safe and the perfect location for anyone visiting Wake Forest! I would absolutely stay here again.
Perfect- Everything we needed, and nothing we didnt
We attending a wedding a few minutes away and there was plenty of room to stay, park and easy access to grocery shopping , the beautiful Joyner Park nearby and loafs of reataurants in Youngsville and Wake Forest. We'll be sharing this property info with our lical family members for their future use.
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean, very close to the wedding venue and featured 4 bedrooms with King Beds. We enjoyed the fire pit one night. The toilet seats are heated! Our hostess very responsive and very accommodating. It is .tucked into a cul de sac in a nice neighborhood. I would recommend staying here .
Our first VRBO experience and it won’t be our last. The Comfy Corner made our trip for our son’s wedding so much simpler.The house was clean and very well organized. The guidebook (electronic and hard copy) was very thorough and had helpful suggestions about the area. Our host was very communicative before and during our stay. Definitely made wedding preparations less stressful.
We own and operate a VRBO we are are very picky, but this home was excellent. Very clean. Everything was labeled and worked. So many little touches like a basket for pets with a "dirty" towel to wipe their feet, toys for them. Treats for adults, throw blankets, grill outside, and erady for this...heated toilet seats! Highly recommend.
There were so many things to be impressed about during this stay. After visiting here I must purchase a toilet with a seat warmer. Fabulous!!! The primary shower with bench and dual shower heads; all the king beds; the extra care and items provided for my fur babies was phenomenal. Also, Debra was so responsive and very much willing to answer any and all questions. I was very comfortable and would definitely return.

Thank you so much for the kind words! Heated toilet seats are like my favorite thing in life😆
I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay… definitely come back to visit.
The place was perfect. Even though the reason was sad it was great to be able to be all together. Very close to several restaurants. Plenty of room. I wish we had been able to use the outside area more because it looked awesome to be able to just sit around and hang out. If we are ever back in that area I would definitely stay there again. We wanted to check in a little early because we were traveling from all different locations and the host was able to accommodate us. I highly recommend.

Sorry for your reason for coming, but glad you were all able to come together here. We would love to have you back!
Hi Debra,We had a wonderful stay at your place. You have everything that is needed from all the kitchen items including coffee, both grounds and kerig, half n half cups, to all tools needed, same with supplying all sheets and towels. Shampoo, conditioner, soap dispenser. Even the laundry room was ready for washing. But what really impressed me was the personal touches like q-tips, cotton balls, the aloe face wipes. But the heated toilet, that’s something you don’t realize you need in your own house till you sit on it. Love!!!When we come back to the area, we will be staying here. Thanks again.

About the host
Hosted by Debra
We moved to Wake Forest in 2010, right as we were starting to build our family (I was pregnant with my first). As soon as I had my daughter, I decided to leave the workforce and focus on taking care of my family and house. Through the years I have filled my time with volunteering throughout the community. I spent many years on the school's PTA, organized the social activities in my neighborhood, and taught Sunday School. In the past few years, I have really developed a love for real estate investing. In my spare time, I love reading/listening/learning all things real estate and financial literacy (my nerdy side can't help it!). I take pride in my houses and in treating my tenants well.
Why they chose this property
I love real estate and I love hosting, so putting the two together seemed natural. In the past, I have only been involved in long-term rentals and just ventured into the short-term rental world in the past few years. I love the need it fills when you have outgrown the small space of a hotel room with no kitchen. I love the personal connections you make and the personal touches you can add when hosting short stays.
What makes this property unique
