We loved our stay at the "Best Tiny House in Town!" The space was clean, well-designed, and comfortable, and the location was perfect for exploring downtown on foot. We'll definitely stay again on our next trip to Raleigh!
the code given on the email was confusing and when I called the number given for clarification, the person who answered the phone call said they we're no longer the ones managing the property. we kept trying the code and finally figures it out
I stayed here while in town for a conference and my only regret is not booking another night so that I could stay longer! Everything was clean and well organized. Clear communication from the host and easy access to downtown. Will definitely consider this property again!
We spent two nights here. The little house was clean, the bed was comfortable. It is the perfect spot to stay for a weekend. I would 100% stay here again in the future.
Very cute Tiny House in a nice neighborhood! The check-in process was easy and we had everything we needed. It was perfect for our 4 night trip. I would highly recommend!
We enjoyed our stay in the tiny house so much!! First off, Ellen was so, so great about answering questions for us while planning our trip since we were coming from out of town. The house had everything you needed, was so clean, and the location was top notch. So close to everything. If you enjoy walking we highly recommend staying here!
The Best Tiny House in Raleigh was excellent. We really enjoyed our stay and our host, Ellen really helped us with restaurants, etc. in Raleigh since it was our first time here. Thanks.
Clean, attractive place with extremely comfortable bed and great kitchen and bathroom amenities (coffee pods and supplies, shampoo/body wash, hair dryer, dishes, and soaps) located conveniently near downtown near good food and bars. The seasons are changing, so there were some ants and small flies, but it was a small inconvenience. We would definitely stay here again!
Very clean, nice neighborhood, good outdoor seating, AC keeps it very cold considering it was 100 outside, little snacks and coffee pods, creamer, sugar, etc. Loved everything about it, sad to leave. :)
The best Tiny House in Town lives up to its name! This home is tucked into the wonderful Mordecai neighborhood in Raleigh. Great area to take walks, grab coffee, visit shops. The bed was very comfortable and the tiny kitchen had everything you might need for a stay. I really liked the strung lights on the little patio. Had it been warmer temps, I know I would have enjoyed sitting outdoors.
We were in Raleigh just for the weekend to attend a wedding and rented the Tiny House. It was perfect for us. Immaculate and just as described. Nice quiet neighborhood and very close to the venue. Our relatives stayed at a nearby hotel, paid twice as much, and were bothered by the noise at night. I would definitely stay there again.
The tiny house was so perfect! The location was so close to uptown where my conference was. The house itself was so clean and comfy. The view out the windows was beautiful. I watched squirrels play in the yard. The bed was super comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with coffee and tea. The bathroom was roomy. And the outside porch is absolutely perfect to sit and relax at the end of your day.
It was a perfect location, within walking distance to restaurants, shops, and museums. Nice neighborhood. It was the perfect size for my husband and I. It easily could have fit a crib or blow-up for a child. It was nice to have the kitchenette with refrigerator, microwave, coffee, and sink. Also, had a cute little patio, which we didn’t end up using as we were out most evenings, but would have otherwise.
I loved everything about this tiny home! Upon arrival jazz was playing and instantly made me want to stay again but with my hubby next time and not a work trip! The room was better than described, perfectly adorned and so cozy! The best part aside from location and cleanliness were the little details. It started to rain as I was heading out to meet some work friends for cocktails and I had just done my hair :(. I look down and there was an umbrella! Perfect!!!

About the host
Hosted by Darla Brown
I love creating interesting spaces. This comfortable back yard retreat was previously a utility shed in it's former life. I raised the ceiling up to the roof to give the room a vertical, open feeling. Raw industrial materials like metal and plywood were used for the fixtures, floor and furniture. The space was influenced by modern design and inspired by the blue city in Morocco, Chefchaouen. I hope you will find the Best Tiny House in Town to be a serene resting place in the heart of the city.
