We were repeat visitors to this wonderful property. Very well-kept home, great location, very reasonably priced, and a welcoming and responsive host. Hope to stay here again in the future and would highly recommend.
This place was definitely 5 star across the board. It's in a nice neighborhood, centrally located and very clean. What I really liked was it had a lot of little touches, coffee and creamer there, heated toilet seat, snacks, a pet basket (we had our service dog with us). Back yard was great, fenced in yard for the pup too. Debra the host was extremely responsive to all our requests. I've stayed in a lot of VRBOs, this one was one of my favorites! Would highly recommend

Beds were great! So comfy! Properly was very clean. Debra (the host) was great with communication! I would definitely recommend and would stay here again!
We had a wonderful stay! The house was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and very welcoming. The host was friendly, attentive, and made everything easy for us. We loved the neighborhood feel while still being just around the corner from everything we needed. Highly recommend!

I’m glad you enjoyed your stay! Come back to see us :-)
The "Backyard Bliss" was the perfect house for my husband and I to stay at for our week-long getaway to Wake Forest/Raleigh. It was clean and very comfortable. So many items in the house that we didn't need to pack, plus drawers/cabinets were well labeled so we could find things! Location was near shopping, restaurants (shout out to Shuckers!), and the pool. We could easily drive to a Durham Bulls baseball game, to the TST soccer matches in Cary, and to downtown Raleigh for wedding planning for my son and girlfriend. We will definitely book again with Debra!

Thank you!! Come back to visit :)
We have multiple places in the Wake Forest (and 1 in Raleigh) if this one happens to be booked.
Great location! Beautiful home in very nice neighborhood with everything we needed, plus lots of thoughtful details that other VRBO’s miss. Really enjoyed the fireplace, back deck, comfortable beds with extra pillows and being able to bring our two golden retrievers with us made our visit so wonderful. Home was extremely clean and property manager was excellent with communication. We will definitely be back!
Much nicer than a hotel! We had to make an unexpected trip from Michigan for a sister's-in-law funeral. -not exactly a vacation. We were so happy to find a last-minute booking so close to where we needed to be. The arrangement couldn't have been better for us. Our traveling companions, my other brother and his wife, were able to stay in the king guest room with their own bath and my daughters and I shared the other rooms and Jack and Jill bathroom. We could be together, but also have privacy.We found the house to be clean and well appointed. We appreciated being able to use the kitchen which had all of the basics and a few special extras. We also liked the good water pressure, clean, fluffy white towels and the soaps in the bathrooms, kitchen and laundry. The neighborhood was quiet and friendly. The backyard was very nice and we loved the bamboo. Response was very quick and the house accurate to its description. We would stay again when we return to see family under better circumstances.
