Great Stay

We came down to Raleigh for a graduation and, as a family of six, needed a large home. The home was beautifully decorated and very clean. The Duke University Hospital is super close which is also very convenient. It was a great stay and we would definitely come back.

The welcoming was extra nice! The home was rich with history and yet fresh with decor. Everything was so clean and well thought out. The basement was worth the extra charge and kept the kids well entertained.

Fun Golf Weekend

Was in town with several friends for a golf weekend and this house was perfect for our stay. Was very near Duke University Golf Club, was clean, with new appliances and plenty of parking. The host was very responsive and helpful.
