Perfect location for visiting your Wake student!
Scott's home was the perfect place for our stay at Winston-Salem while visiting our daughter at Wake Forest University. It is a 7-min drive to the campus! The interior of the house is nice and charming and perfectly clean. It has everything you may need (kitchen covers everything in case you really want to cook:)) The two bedrooms have comfortable mattresses and enough blankets and pillows fo every "sleeping type" Easy parking and very quiet location. Scott is taking excellent care of you and is highly responsive to all questions, that may arrise. We will def come back!

House was very clean and easy to access. We arrived late at night and it was nice that the front porch light was motion activated. Scott was easy to access and checked-in throughout our stay to make sure everything was okay. Definitely recommend.
