Great location

Our family stayed here for my daughter’s graduation from NCSU. Although it was out of Raleigh a bit, it was very close to the interstate and close to great dining and shopping while still feeling like you were on n a rural area. The lake was so relaxing! The house is on the older side, but there is plenty of space and the kitchen was a nice size. The back deck is large and shaded. Overall a nice property for family.

A relaxing, lovely stay

I stayed here with six long term friends for a Duke reunion. We loved the beautiful setting - very peaceful. There was room for all of us to sleep and all of our cars. We cooked dinner there one night - the kitchen is well stocked. We watched basketball games and spent lots of time out on the deck. The layout is a bit quirky, but it worked for us. Sue was a great, flexible host and communicated so well. We even talked about coming back to this house in five years for our next reunion!

Family Wedding

Our youngest son was getting married, and although most of the out of town guests were staying in a hotel, we wanted a place that could accommodate ourselves, my parents and our other son, daughter in law and grandson, and possibly our 19 YO granddaughter and her BF. This location served our needs very nicely, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was centrally located and was clean and comfortable.

Peaceful place with plenty of room

We had a wonderful stay for a small reunion of friends. The house is just as described, two comfortable sitting areas and a large deck and yard with seating too. Everything you would need in the kitchen and entire home was clean. Extra touches were appreciated - charging blocks by every bed and in the main areas too. Communication was easy and hosts were responsive. The house is on a peaceful street but close to everything - shops and restaurants. Easy drive to Durham.

The property is gorgeous with a pond stocked with fish. Our boys enjoyed catching and releasing small bass and sunnies. The home is immaculate, beautiful, and stocked with every imaginable thing you would need to make your stay enjoyable and worry-free. The rooms are spacious and allowed our group of 10 to spread out and do whatever we wanted to do. I highly recommend a stay at this property. You'll really enjoy it's many "perks".

Large Home with Lots of Gathering Spaces on Wooded Lot

Our large multi-generational family celebrated the Christmas and New Year’s holidays at this large, comfortable house. The kitchen was spacious and very well stocked, with labeled drawers and cabinets facilitating our many cooks and assistants. The front living room - with a light and simply decorated Christmas tree - and back den provided multiple gathering places. The multi-level deck outdoors had two tables with seating for at least fifteen. The hosts were very responsive by test and phone. An all around wonderful experience.

Great House and Location

We stayed in August for 5 nights while visiting family. The house was clean and very spacious and included many amenities such as; toiletries, kitchen supplies, games, cleaning supplies, and other small things. We cooked out and enjoyed the grill, deck and overall yard. The property is in a good location, 20 minutes to downtown Cary and Durham. Five minutes from South Point mall and minutes away from Harris Teeters market, ABC liquor store and Total wine. Definitely would stay here again .

Good Family Reunion Spot

Country outdoor feel in a convenient location. Beautiful property with a pond and nice fire pit area and a large deck. Were able to do good meal prep in the kitchen with a large refrigerator. Lots of games and puzzles, plenty of warm throws around during the winter season. The Children's Museum of Raleigh was great for the 18 month old. Lots of restaurants and shopping nearby. Felt good and were able to make ourselves at home.
