A cozy house with a great backyard. The boys had fun throwing the football around. And the dogs joined in. We were in town for a quick weekend for a belated Christmas/early birthday celebration and went to a hockey game. Great location to the arena.

Great house and back yard space! Conveniently located to downtown and college campuses. Had just what we needed for a long weekend away. Propane fire pit was a plus to enjoy on a cool autumn night while the dog enjoyed the yard.

The house is very nice in a lovely neighborhood. The backyard is spatious and very nicely done-our dog loved it! zoomies for sure. The host was an excellent communicator and was right on top of any issues that arose. The place was very clean, and the coffee a delight every morning. The wifi was very fast.

Great backyard area

The house itself is pretty updated, but we were very impressed with the large backyard! So much outdoor seating to enjoy the weather. The property also had all of the amenities we needed and some products that we forgot. Check out was super easy!

Wedding in Raleigh

This property was very cute, decorated in mid-century modern. The house was very clean and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. The large backyard was inviting and I wish we would have had more time to enjoy it.

Very nice

We came to Raleigh during a very hot week. The central air conditioner was very nice and consistent. The house was spacious and clean and the beds very comfortable. The location was good as we did a lot of site seeing and took a day trip to Charolette. The backyard is spacious and private with nice lighting!

Challenging weekend

Overall, we're happy with our stay, but it had some unexpected issues. While we were getting settled after arrival, we noticed the A/C wasn't working. The owners were quick to try to help us troubleshoot, but unfortunately the A/C unit was broken. The owners were able to get a couple of window units in place. They were so fast to help and so kind in their response. That made a difficult situation easier, and we greatly appreciated that. We were still able to enjoy our time in Raleigh even with the complications.

This is our second time staying at this property. Perfect size for our party of 5 adults and a dog with a large backyard to spread out and enjoy. Gas fire pit is a nice compliment on a cool evening. The house is convenient to NC State and downtown Raleigh. Host is easy to work with and provides clear communication. Great place to stay!

The property was perfect for our two dogs. The host was very responsive. As far as safety concerns: the molding around the floor of the fireplace was raised just enough to be a tripping hazard, kitchen chair legs extended beyond the table. We all tripped over those daily. I strongly believe that there should have been grab bars (at least one) in the tub and shower. The house was very clean and the convenience of the washer/dryer/and dishwasher was perfect. Since there was no ice maker, we need to use the one ice cube tray that was cracked. We ended up buying a bag of ice.
