The house was very clean, in a great neighborhood, and check-in was super easy. The backyard was perfect for our dog, and I felt safe going on early morning runs—lots of sidewalks and streetlights throughout the area.It’s also in a convenient spot, just a short walk or quick drive to plenty of great food options. The only downside was the dishwasher, which seemed to have some mold from not being used regularly.Overall, I’d give it a 9.9/10 and will likely stay here again next time I’m in town for work. ##### Sam C.

This home is in the perfect location close to the city but in a wonderful quiet neighborhood. The amenities were great for a long stay including laundry detergent, paper towels and all kinds of soap. The owners replied to our concerns about the thermostat quickly but no changes were made making for a frustrating time keeping the temperature where we needed it.

Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Michele S. 10 May 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location to all The house was nice but the outside needs some TLC. Thank god the lawn guy came to cut the grass the second day. Trimming plant growth back in the drive way would be great. So you can get in and out of car . Also front porch weeded and front hedges trim. Also there was a lot of hair and dust under the couch. Besides that the inside of house was well kept. The dog loved the backyard. The owners responded back fast .And we had a lovely stay. ##### Michele S. Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rachelle N., LOWER BURRELL 15 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Home away from home The house was updated and provided everything needed, including a desk to work in one room. One king size and two queen beds. A huge fenced in back yard for my dog. Quiet neighborhood. And the host was very communicative and responsive. My only critiques are minor - perhaps proving a few more towels for quests staying an entire week, consider updating the back deck as some floor boards are lifting, and perhaps allow the guests to adjust the AC setting to their comfort (temp was warmer over night then temp set during day which is less ideal for some). These items were not enough to affect my rating as I fully enjoyed my stay. ##### Rachelle N. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dell K. 15 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### GREAT STAY! We LOVED our stay! We have stayed in many short term rentals in Raleigh, and I have to say, this one was the best! The big plus for us was a completely fenced in backyard with a raised deck and grill, which we used during the unseasonably warm days. All the attention to details was much appreciated, i.e., coffee fixings, soap, shampoo, etc were all there. AND THE BED! There were 3, but we only used the master and it was heaven. White linens and towels were pristine. Pillows plump and plentiful. Bedside lamps had usb ports. Smart TV in living room worked beautifully. And it was QUIET. The neighborhood is economically mixed and definitely transitioning in places. Walkers of dogs, babies and exercise were abundant. A car is required to get into downtown and to PNC Arena, where we saw 2 Hurricanes games. I'd say the car into downtown would be for safety in late night, and the PNC Arena for distance. The house had all modern conveniences, with the charm of a mid-century ranch lovingly restored. We will definitely stay again if available for our dates! Many thanks to our hosts for easy communication and amenities provided, and for being dog friendly! Having our dog makes all the difference! ##### Dell K. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kelly S. 30 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Good but frustrating I rented this property predominantly for me and my dog while waiting for movers to bring our stuff to NC. I picked this VRBO specifically for the yard. Our dog doesn't like other dogs and I wanted a safe space to bring her for walks. The exterior pictures were quite misleading and I think might have been from when the property was purchased. Everything was overgrown. The grass was taller than my 45 pound dog in both the front and the back. Quite literally I couldn't use the space as advertised. In fairness to the owners they were very responsive and disappointed that their landscaping company hadn't been by, but this was well over a month of growth. I really wish the exterior cameras had been checked sooner or a drive-by of the property was done regularly to avoid this. I checked in on Sunday and I couldn't use the yard until Thursday. Everything else inside was well taken care of, clean and comfortable. I'd suggest that if you are planning to book to use with dogs to message the owners before check-in to confirm the yard was taken care of. ##### Kelly S.

Updated some furniture since the last time we were here, very nice. The place was clean, checkin no issues. Andy and Oana were quick to respond to any questions we had. Would definitely recommend renting this place. ##### Mike H. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ---
