I cannot say enough wonderful things about Daniel’s property. The place is EXACTLY as it is in the photos. The interior design of this place is so tasteful and immaculate. The beds were incredible comfortable as well as the bedding. Close to everything yet I felt like I was in the countryside . Now I just need another reason to travel to the area to stay here again.

The location is ideal for visiting a Wake student. The interior was recently refreshed and is very well done. It is simple and super comfortable for 3-4 people. WiFi seamless; communication and promptness of host were stellar.

Fantastic quiet little hideaway! Beautiful scenery. On our first day we saw deer grazing. We're moving from north Carolina to New Jersey in an due to my mother battling cancer. Myself, my husband, our 2 daughters and 2 dogs. Upon entering my littlest one jumped for joy at the open concept living room kitchen. Much bigger than our apartment was there so she had a blast running around. We have a nervous dog and it was very quiet for her which was nice not seeing her in a panic. Beautifully decorated living room with very interesting books. I took photos so I could eventually read some myself. Two very spacious bedrooms with extra blankets and games to play. The main bedroom has a huge closet which was nice to use to keep our luggage out of the way. Two amazing bathrooms. Endless hot water. One is a steam shower and one a bathtub. There's a small patio out back to hang out. It rained when we visited so we got to see all the frogs out there. The sounds were amazing and calming. There's a bench swing we used with the little one. I could go on how amazing everything was but you need to see it for yourself! The hosts are also amazing. We had zero issues getting in or out. We had a hiccup with the movers and they were scheduled on a different day. We needed another night but VRBO wouldn't let us extend. I messaged the host and they answered right away and figured it all out for me. We were able to pay and stay one more night which always a TREMENDOUS help! Ran out of space. Fantastic

Every second was perfect. I needed a clean quiet place to stay with my elderly dad. This place was exactly what we needed. The HUGE TV on the living room wall was outstanding. Every room was spotless. All necessities were there. Our host was so patient and accommodating. We will definitely stay here again and again.
