Property ok, unwelcoming owner
The property was fine. It was a good home base for us while we were checking out the area. Lots of “don’t do this or there will be a charge.” Was also told we needed to check out by 8 am on our last day which was stupid.

A lovely oasis
We really felt comfortable, safe and relaxed in this well-maintained and equipped house in a quiet neighborhood. On nice days, we enjoyed the deck looking out at the beautiful trees and listening to the birds. The host was very helpful when we needed it.

Fall into your quiet place
This house is exactly as pictured! The host Sheryl is so kind and responsive almost immediately! We were able to do some driving to the mountains to see the Biltmore Estate about 4 hours one way! It was a very long day but we’ll worth it! We drove to Oak Island Lighthouse and saw the beach which was deserted this time of year! About 2 1/2 hours away one way! If you want to got to the top you have to schedule it on line which we didn’t but it was still neat. We went over to Southport and ate at Fishy Fishy and then walked about a block to see the house in the movie “Safe Haven” written by Nicholas Sparks! We grilled burgers out back and just enjoyed the scenery and laid back peaceful neighborhood.

Great stay in a lovely neighborhood
We couldn't have asked for a better place to spend a month while waiting to move into our new house. The beds are really comfortable, plenty of blankets and towels, and we loved the comfortable reclining chairs. The kitchen was well-stocked and easy to use. Big fenced-in backyard was perfect for our dogs. Both the yard and upper level are great for people with younger kids. There is so much to do here, the kids might forget about their screens for a bit. We really enjoyed having our morning coffee while watching a hummingbird outside our living room window. We were happy to realize there were so many great food options very close by. Highly recommend. Laurie and Chuck R.

Cute home with a large yard and upstairs
My wife and I stayed for a month in this house while we were house hunting, and all we really enjoyed it. Our dog loved chasing squirrels in the large fenced backyard, and we loved the comfortable living room and bedroom (and watching her run around from the upper deck in the back while drinking tea in the morning). The shower was excellent, and the kitchen was just right for our daily cooking. The beds and the recliners were comfortable, and the neighborhood was pretty quiet and conveniently located. Sheryl, the owner/host, was very accommodating and communicative by e-mail/text, and she was very clear with her instructions about various details of the house. If you're moving to the area and need some time to find a long-term housing situation, I recommend staying in this house. We were there only a month, but it started to feel like home. :-)

Great location! Very clean!
This house was clean and had everything we needed. It is in a great location and gave us the ability to go all around Raleigh and surrounding towns to explore. There is even a swing set in the back yard that was popular with our kids along with all the toys in the bonus room upstairs. I highly recommend this property and would stay again if available the next time we visit Raleigh.

My first Vrbo Experience
This property is BEAUTIFUL, CLEAN, and will not disappoint you. The owner was kind, helpful, and her prompt communication made this new experience easy. This is a quiet neighborhood with easy access to downtown, shopping, gas. The information available at the home itself was invaluable. Such a lovely place to stay and enjoy my weekend in Raleigh. Cannot put into words how this made our visit memorable. Thank you Ms. Shirley!

Perfect child and pet friendly stay
We had a great stay for 10 days with our two toddlers- 2.5 and 1 year- as well as our two dogs. Child friendly with every amenity we needed- crib, high chair, toys, swing set, toddler patio set, play room. Home was stocked with all the basics we needed before we could get to the store, which was very helpful. Sheryl is great to work with and I would definitely recommend the property!
