Postives...The house was perfect for our double family to stay for a funeral from florida. Kids really enjoyed the kids space. Negatives....not the cleanest. Found several extremely dirty dishes. Kids play area was a disaster. Not enough coffee cups. We had 5 adults and only 3 cups. The towels were really lacking too. The one bedroom light needed to be replaced. Kept flickering. The one rooms needs blinds and curtain for privacy. Could not get any of the tvs to play besides the projector.

This house was perfect for our kids! They were so sad to leave they cried. They had decorations put up our of reach of little hands and plenty of fun toys and the outdoor play structure that was a blast. If your looking for a home your comfortable in with your children, this is the place to book!

Disliked: Cleanliness
Starting with the positives, the house is in a nice location and surroundings are very pretty. We were very happy with the large backyard and play structure for the kids. It was also nice having all the toys upstairs for the children. The kitchen has newer appliances and was the nicest room in the house. We were in NC for my son’s wedding. There were 10 of us staying in the house. My biggest complaint was the overall cleanliness of the home. It was disgusting, to say the least. The couches both upstairs and downstairs were dirty, floors looked like they needed to be deeply cleaned, there was hair in my bed like sheets weren’t washed, most of the window blinds were broken so there was no privacy, there was mold in the downstairs bathroom tub, the upstairs princess bed was completely broken and topped if anyone lasted on it. We had to take the mattress off and lay it on the floor. I took pictures of everything and sent to the owner. She responded promptly and said she would talk to her cleaning crew but if we were unhappy, we could leave the premises. There was nowhere to relocate with that amount of people. I asked for a partial refund and was denied despite the pictures. Additionally, we had to go buy hand soap, paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, towels and blankets since the house was so poorly stocked. It was just not a good experience for anyone. Also, there were many lightbulbs broken so lighting was poor. I would not recommend this place.

House was just as posted in pics! Kids loved it, we couldnt take them away from the playing areas. Lexi, our host, was really supportive as well, we arrived a couple of hours earlier than our check-in time and helped us out, even waiving the fee. If you want a place to connect with nature, this is the place!

Cute, Quit Neighborhood

We stayed here with some of our dance friends for a competition at Fuquay High School. The neighborhood is charming and kid friendly. It’s a great location to town but yet feels so secluded. The host communication was great and she was able to suggest a fun afternoon activity after a morning of dancing. We appreciate you sharing your home with us!

Robertson Family State Fair Stay

Just a little miss communication about the check in process, but that got resolved quickly. The property was roomy and well supplied. My families 4 toddlers had a fantastic time playing in the upstairs kids play room for hours. We used the overhead projector to entertain the kids with a childrens movie. If there had been a safety gate at the top of the stairs it would have been absolutely perfect.

Weekend Wedding

We enjoyed our stay at this house. We arrived waaay to early and the owners allowed us to check in early. They usually have an early check-in fee and they were gracious enough to waive the fee. The location was great. This is a house that is great for families with young children. Very accommodating.

Nice for families, but needs some maintenance

Overall, potential to be a nice property. However, cleanliness needs to better and the property could use one or two days of maintenance work (for example, the front door handle is loose, the bathroom door did not latch (we had to fix it) and the kitchen table chairs need to be fixed or replaced. We still had a nice stay and it fit all of our family members.
