We were visiting our granddaughters and this place was perfect! The kitchen was very well stocked and there were plenty of towels for the teenagers. The location was great with a fenced yard. Very quiet and comfortable!
Very nice space and superb price point. The kitchen is well managed, which helped so much! Central to so many places for outings. Michelle was very kind! Thank you!
The house was perfect for us. Clean and cozy with everything you need for your stay. The fenced in yard was a treat for our dogs. Michelle was a great communicator and help prior and during our stay. We highly recommend this place to others and will stay there again in the future.
So pleasantly happy with our stay! The house was beautiful, tastefully decorated and so clean when we arrived. Michelle was very accommodating and answered all my questions promptly. Beautiful setting and nice big fenced in back yard.
All the amenities were included. Had everything we needed to feel comfortable and secure. Fenced in yard provided seclusion and safety. Wonderful quiet, treed neighborhood. Easy 5 minute drive to downtown Wake Forest. Exceptionally clean bright and spacious rooms. Owner very responsive when we had questions.
We stayed at this property from Monday - Sunday. The location is great, just a short distance to downtown in a beautiful setting with trees and privacy.
The home is clean, updated, and nicely decorated.
We had all we needed for our family for the week. The homeowner was easy to work with and quick to respond.
Great place to stay when visiting Wake Forest.
We were visiting throughout the Wake Forest and Franklin County areas. This home was centrally located, convenient, quiet, and immaculate. Michelle (our host) was extremely helpful in coordinating prior to our arrival.
We hope to stay in this home again when we return to visit family.

The home was very nice, clean and it had everything I needed for my stay. My little pup was welcome.I would defiantly rent it again for my next family visit.The communication with the owner was great.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The property owner is fabulous and communicates clearly with a lot of advanced notice prior to check in. Will definitely book the next time we are in the area.
We stayed here for our granddaughter 1st birthday and wanted a place near them. We were just as stated 12 min away. The place met our expectations and we would rent again.
We stayed in this house for two weeks. The property manager was very responsive and helpful when we had questions. It was nice to have a washer/dryer and full kitchen for the two weeks.
