There is a security camera on the front porch so we can tell when our guest have arrived and can assure they make it into the property safely and so we can tell when they check out so we can go clean the property.

Here for a week get-a-way after an appointment at Duke hospital. Very relaxing. Home was very clean with a good layout. View of the lake from several rooms. Didn’t get a chance to use the fire pit or the deck as the weather was too cold. Thankful there was a wood stove in the living room. Wood was not guaranteed but there was enough to have a fire most every night. We would caution about the master bedroom as pictures are not shown of it. There are two step downs to get to the bedroom and the bed itself is on a raised platform. Then there are steps to get up to the bath and shower. Although the room was lovely with a sliding door leading out to the deck, we chose not to use it as we are seniors and didn’t want to chance a fall. We would definitely stay here again!

Great setting, beautiful property. Comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed for the long weekend. The host was responsive and very helpful. The master bedroom is difficult to manage with various steps and elevations. The bathroom in the Master needs some leveling/ renovation. Overall, we were very pleased..
Loved the property. It was clean, quiet and well appointed. The ONLY suggestion would be to add pictures and description of the master bedroom/bathroom. If there are any mobility issues it could be a problem- it’s very unique and quite cute, but could be an issue for some. Thanks for a wonderful stay!!
This was an excellent cabin to stay in while I was at Duke getting surgery. My spouse and friend stayed there while I was in the hospital.. I was so jealous!
Our family enjoyed a relaxing stay! Nice decor and we'll equiped kitchen. Private location, large back deck and fire pit with outdoor chairs.
Would love to return!
Family decided to get away for a few days and randomly picked this property based on size, location, and reviews. We were very happy with the experience (except for the constant rain), and the host is deserving of SIX stars! She was so incredibly responsive to every tiny little question, it was super helpful.
one small recommendation: some sort of lake access for a small boat or something. Maybe not allowed by local ordinances?
The cabin is located within a 15 minute drive to Camp Butner, restaurants and grocery stores. As my husband was at the games, I appreciated the wifi access and streaming TV.
The owners were quick to respond when the grill was out of gas and there was a power outage. The cabin was very clean and the towels and linens were good quality.
The pots and pans need to be update, but we're acceptable for a limited stay. I only made dinner two nights. Silver Spoon
This was a nice cozy house, well away from the road and very quiet. We had six adult family members staying at the house over the holidays and it was perfect for that purpose. I can also see it would be great for families with kids.. Owners were very responsive when the pipes froze due to the unusually cold weather, and they came out and fixed the problem right away. Thank you Andrea and Amy!
Our sons are adults and are married so spending time with them is important when we can all get our schedules together especially since we live in different states. Plus, we have a golden retriever who has separation issues and does not do well with boarding (she refuses to eat) . We were so happy to find such a comfortable place that was accepting and welcoming for our doggie and to have our family gather, play board games, cook together, roast marshmallows by the fire pit and just enjoy one another's company. The bedrooms are comfortable, the kitchen table sat all of us for dinner and board games. We would stay again.
This property is tucked away from the hustle and bustle, complete with your own access to the water. Very clean and spacious place. Only about 40 minutes away from Raleigh. Host is friendly and quick to respond. Overall it was exactly what we were looking for!
Great place. All the pictures and discriptions ring true. Beautiful cottage tucked away in the woods on a lake. Andrea was awesome. Zero complaints. If you are concerned about anything, don't be. Just book it. My only regret is that I couldn't stay longer. Thanks Andrea!!!!
A quaint, cozy, clean cottage. Exactly as seen in pictures. Beds are comfortable, medium softness mattresses. One bedroom with on suite bathroom is across the home from other two bedrooms, nice for privacy. The on suite bathroom is separated from bedroom by a wall ,but open to bedroom space. not an issue but different. Large back deck with river view, a big grill, table with umbrella and chairs, and a relaxing tiered water feature, lovely space to relax. Is close to grocery stores 4 or 5 miles. However, it is off a main road so not walking friendly. Owner very communicative, responsive! Highly recommend!

About the host
Hosted by Andrea Douglass
I am a pharmacist at Duke Hospital who stumbled into the world of property management and real estate. It all began when I started renting out my personal properties as short-term rentals. I quickly fell in love with managing properties and interacting with guests, which led me to obtain my real estate license. As my passion for this field grew, I expanded my services to manage other people's properties as well. The business became so busy that I had to reduce my hours at Duke Hospital to dedicate more time to it. I am deeply passionate about traveling and exploring different properties and areas, which fuels my love for this profession even more. I am dedicated to providing exceptional service to both property owners and guests, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience for all involved.
