This was our first experience renting a property and it was beyond anything we could have possibly imagined for a great experience. Susan and Rob were amazing. They were incredibly kind, helpful and willing to listen to our particular preferences and worked with us to make the stay a wonderful experience. The property itself couldn't have been better suited to our vacation wishes if we designed it ourselves. I only hope it will be available for us to return to in the future, because it could not have been better. Thank you so very much Susan & Rob!!!!!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The home was spotless, beautifully maintained, and even more impressive in person than in the photos. Every space was thoughtfully designed, comfortable, and welcoming, making it easy to feel at home from the moment we arrived.We especially loved the pool and spa, and the screened-in porch with the fireplace quickly became one of our favorite places to relax. The property offered plenty of indoor and outdoor space for our family to spread out, gather together, and enjoy quality time. It truly had everything we needed for a perfect getaway.The location was ideal, centrally located and just a short drive from downtown Raleigh and many local attractions. What truly set this property apart, however, were the owners. They were incredibly welcoming, responsive, and genuinely pleasant to work with throughout our stay. We have never felt more welcomed at a rental property.We highly recommend this home for families looking for a relaxing home away from home. Between the beautiful accommodations, amazing amenities, and exceptional hosts, this property exceeded all of our expectations. We can't wait to come back!

This was my second time staying at Sue and Rob's place..First time was 8 years ago before pool was put in..I have never stayed at a VRBO so well equipped than Sue and Rob's house. Kitchen, toys, bath supplies etc. The backyard is lovely and the dog loved it..Beds very comfortable. The grandkids enjoyed the pool very much. We, unfortunately, had the luck (make memories) of being there for a horrible storm where a large tree in the backyard came down and a few large bushes came down adjacent to the road. Sue and Rob had the place looking like nothing happened the next day. Pretty remarkable. I would highly recommend staying here..

We had a delightful time in Raleigh! Susan and Rob were fantastic hosts. The house is beautiful, clean, and well-stocked for any cooking or relaxing needs you might have. Our favorite spots were the screened in porch and the fire pit. I would book this place again in a heartbeat.

Spotless and so well thought out. The attention to every detail was remarkable. Truly professional hosts. Personalized check in, quick response when we had questions. We have stayed at many short term rentals - this home sets a new standard that will be very difficult to beat.

Great communication with the owners, home offered so much which made our stay amazing, had a special area set up for my grandson which included so many neat toys along with a teepee tent, the hot tub and pool were such a great option to have after spending a day at the N.C. State Fair… I would highly recommend this beautiful home with awesome attentive owners to anyone looking for a special retreat to Raleigh NC!

This was one of the best outfitted houses we have ever stayed at. The owners obviously love the property and take pains to provide everything you could possibly want and more! They even set a fire for us in the fire pit, ready to go. The hot tub was clean and worked well. If we go back to Raleigh with family we would definitely stay there again!
