Hosted by Susan & Rob Bucklin
Rob and I have been hosting guests since 2014. We are semi retired and live very active life styles. We enjoy healthy cooking, gardening, our dogs (Hungarian Kuvasz), traveling when we can, hosting you and Hurricanes Hockey! We are scuba divers and love sailing. I am a stained glass artist and Rob loves to play tennis and pickle ball. We are both certified dog therapy teams. We loved Europe, Alaska and the Caribbean Islands; and someday look forward to traveling to Australia, Asia and Bora Bora.
Our Motto: Live life day to day.... and to the fullest!
Why they chose this property
The house is very private, quiet and convenient to RDU airport, RTP, NCSU, UNC, Duke, downtown Raleigh & Durham, shopping, parks, NC Museum of Art and some great restaurants to name a few things. We have equipped it with pretty much anything you could possibly need for a delightful stay. If we are missing something, we are only 10 minutes away. Raleigh is a great area, where we are just four hours away from the Blue Ridge Mountains on one side and two hours from the beaches on the other side. We look forward to hearing from you.
What makes this property unique
The best things about this area are: Location, because it is convenient to many popular destinations in Raleigh and easy access to getting in and out of town. Peacefulness, as it sets at the end of a no through access road in a very quiet neighborhood. Friendliness, because your neighbors have been our friends for many years. Comfort, because we have tried to anticipate all your needs while being away from home. Then last but not least Privacy, because having the woods behind and the lake beside you, the only interruption you may have are the geese in the winter and the frogs in the summer.
