Perfect house within walking distance to downtown

We loved our stay. The house is very clean and everything looks new. The location is very convenient, we walked downtown for lunch. There is even a cute restaurant about 3 houses away. We enjoyed our stay with friends and will stay again the next time we are in Raleigh. The host was very nice.

Great stay in Raleigh!

We love everything about this home - location in historic oakwood in downtown Raleigh, the backyard, the screen room, the layout of the home , remodeled bathrooms and comfy beds. It is a great neighborhood for walking and close to everything downtown but in a quiet residential neighborhood. Be sure to check out some of the local restaurants and coffee shops!

Historical Gem

The integrity of restoration is excellent. Modernization where needed ( bath, kitchen and outdoor space). Very comfortable for lounging and sleeping! Excellent water pressure and temperature control also. We spent time on porch and very friendly neighbors. There is an excellent neighborhood restaurant at end of block. What a gem for a long weekend!

Oakwood is the Best Neighborhood!

The house was perfect for a long work trip. Great place to host coworkers for a glass of wine on the screened in back porch. There is also this incredible restaurant at the end of the block called SmokeStacks Café.

Absolutely AMAzING

WOW.. this place was amazing. We were down to Raleigh for an appointment at NC state for a sick puppy and I found this home ( that allows dogs) and was so happy. Close to everything we needed! The communication from the very start was on-point! I asked a million questions, (even down the what type coffee pot was there... as we all know coffee is a must lol) and the response time was within minutes! This continued through out our stay! Now let's talk about the home. WOW WOW WOW WOW. I fell in love the moment we pulled up! The design and colors were amazing, and the layout was perfect! The home was spotless and everything was there that we needed, even down to the Doggie poop bags! The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were so neat and gosh the dinning room was perfect for working while waiting for the Puppy! I wish it was warm enough to enjoy the back screened in porch, and wish we could have walked the neighborhood, next time for sure! We even got to meet the gentleman who grew up in the home. Said he lived there in the 50's! We will return to the home to fully enjoy the area!!! Thank you for being amazing hosts and we love your home!

This house is super cute. Very well decorated and well equipped with everything you’ll need for your stay. The beautiful historic oak wood cemetery is just across the road. Quiet neighborhood, yet right next door to downtown. Highly recommend!

Perfect place in Raleigh

If you are visiting Raleigh this is the place to stay. It’s convenient to downtown but private in a nice neighborhood. Stacey was very accommodating and the house was clean, fully stocked, and just all around comfortable. Wish we could have stayed longer than the weekend! Our fur babies enjoyed it too! Thanks for hosting us Stacey!

Absolutely love this place!

We had such a wonderful stay at Stacy’s place this week! It was incredibly comfortable and clean, and had many thoughtful touches throughout the home. The WiFi was great for working remotely and the screened in porch was perfect for winding down in the evenings. It’s in a quiet, charming neighborhood within walking distance to some amazing restaurants, bakeries, and shops. Stacy was so easy to communicate with and the home was fully equipped with everything we needed. Especially loved the kitchen space with plenty of room to cook and share meals. It was hard to leave after such a great week! We hope to stay here again soon!!
