Great spot in Raleigh!

Wondeful stay with our 2 small dogs. Back yard is wooded, fenced and very nice for the pups. Great neighborhood, tons of stuff going on right nearby. Very busy road out front, be cautious pulling in and out.

Comfortable House

The listing was accurate. The house was clean and very comfortable. The fenced in backyard was perfect for our dog. The only drawback was that the location was on a main road making exiting the property a little tricky. The bedroom we used was in the back so the noise was minimal. There is adequate parking in the driveway. Would recommend.

Perfect spot for a weekend visit

This is our second time starting at this cute property and it was just as perfect as last time. Our daughter loves the “secret” Lot and our pups have a blast in the fenced in backyard. My husband and I appreciate the central location and always enjoy coming back to a fire in the fire pit.

Cozy and Comfortable

A perfect amount of space for two adult couples. Very clean and comfortable. Check on and check out easy. Within easy walking distance to Crabtree Creek Trails for relaxed shaded strolls. On a busy street but parking off the street allowed for easy access. Upper room allowed space to spread out for individual private time. Would return if back in the RDU area.

Excellent stay. Cute home!

I loved the simple yet modern chic charm of this home. Everything was in great condition, it is decorated beautifully, beds were comfy! We stated here for a short getaway at the end of summer break for its central location to the nearby museums. The backyard is fenced- always a plus when traveling with your fur child. The place was super clean as well.

Great home in a great location in Raleigh

This house was perfect for our trip to Raleigh. We came into town for Brewgaloo and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. House was clean, comfortable and location-wise, you are minutes from downtown. It is also dog-friendly, so we were able to bring our pup with us and the fenced in yard was an amazing perk! The next time we head to Raleigh, we will definitely try and stay here again.
