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.

Great little house for a visit to Raleigh

Nice and comfortable inside but very close to street with lots of activity and two nights in a row interesting neighbor noise in the middle of the night.

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.

Fun house easy to get around Raleigh

We enjoyed our stay at Anne’s property. We really liked the backyard with fire pit and dining area. The house had a pretty well stocked kitchen, which was clean and organized. The place was well situated in getting to attractions downtown and in an area with a good selection of places to eat. The one negative was that the stairway to the loft was steep and didn’t have a handrail, so we had to be very watchful of our son in going up and down the steps.

Anne is amazing!

We had a great visit to NC. Our son lives here now and we enjoyed our stay. This little house was perfect!! We were 5 mins from his place. Anne has thought of everything. We sat out back and had a fire one night. We will certainly be back!

Location

I know we can’t see the exact address when booking, we kind of knew where it would be. But once it was booked we realized it was right on a very busy street and once booked we had no option to make a change, it wasn’t eligible for a refund like we originally thought before booking. Like I said we knew the area so we knew how busy the streets are but didn’t know this was right on the main road. As cute as this place is we would not consider it again.
