The house itself was beautiful, but a little difficult to find. It is on a very busy street during the day, but at night it is quiet. It was a perfect place to get to all our activities. Apex is such a cute town with nice restaurants, cafes, and shops. Nice walk into town.

Overall this property was very nice, so close to town and sidewalks to walk on. Communication was very good and I was able to make some minor suggestions to the host. Lots of traffic noise during the day, hardly any after rush hour and at night. Decorated very nicely and very comfortable bed.

Weekend getaway

Absolutely love this place! It felt very cozy and comfortable. We came into town for a festival and had a great time staying here. It was 6 of us and we fit perfectly. They have good restaurants walking distance and although it is on a street corner you still felt the privacy.

The host was very pleasant and responsive. The location is fabulous for walking into downtown Apex. The property would benefit from sprucing up the exterior. Plenty of parking.Safe atmosphere. Well stocked with supplies and such.

This is a cute and pet friendly house. We had 4 adults and 2 dogs. The host allowed us to hold a small family brunch, which I requested in advance and she was very gracious about.We felt this was our home away from home, which was really important over the Christmas holiday.

Lovely Downtown Apex Cottage!

Loved our stay at this property! It was very clean, easy to find, and in a great location. The host is very responsive and helpful. 10/10 would stay here again!! Note for dog owners: fence is not attached to home, so we leashed our dogs to get them to the gate. No big deal.

Quant home near the heart of Apex. Great restaurants, breweries, and shoppes. Home had good stock of supplies. The owner communicated very well and did note the people staying before us left the home a wreck and they did their best; however the home was not very clean upon checking in. There was substantial dust under the beds, hairs in shower and bathroom. Overall, we had a pleasant stay.

Great house!

House w character and style, very clean, good mattresses and awesome location for proximity to historic areas. We did not realize it would be on a busy corner, in front of a stoplight. Good news is, the house is so well made we didnt hear much street noise and the parking is on site so it wasn’t a big deal. Great getaway to see a concert or do business without the big city hustle.

Cute house, great location

I needed a small place to stay, close to my work in RTP. In lieu of a hotel, I wanted a "home away from home", someplace comfortable. I walked the neighborhood every morning and walked to dinner with friends on Salem Street several evenings. Groceries and Costco are nearby. The house was well appointed, and had everything I needed (including great WIFI). The only downside is that it's on a busy street corner with a traffic light. Despite this, I'd stay here again on my next work trip.

We enjoyed our stay in Apex. It was a very close walk to cute downtown Apex. It is in a very safe neighborhood. House was very spacious and inviting. The beds were very comfortable! There was just a few hiccups such as the lock on sliding deck door needs to be fixed. Also smoke alarm needed to be replaced as it constantly was beeping. When we checked it does not have a way to replace the battery. The pod coffee maker needs to be replaced as it does not make coffee without grounds ending up in coffee. Other than that. It was a great stay!
