We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this home! We drove down from Georgia for the USA BASEBALL tournament and stayed for several nights and enjoyed every moment. I highly recommend this home! The host is excellent about communication. We will stay here again…

Great House, Great Neighborhood
This house is a remodeled mid century modern house is located in a quiet, well established neighborhood in Cary. Four main things I look for in a VRBO....cleanliness, all appliances and HVAC work properly, comfortable linens/bed, and a well appointed kitchen. This property checked all those boxes and more. The house has a great outdoor space. The deck is outside and they also have an adjacent screened in porch with a great seating space and ping pong table. The kitchen was better equipped than most VRBOs. We found the location to be very convenient and quiet. A great find and we'll be back.

Beautiful Home, Wonderful Stay
This was a beautiful home that met our needs perfectly. We were visiting Cary for a family wedding. The house was conveniently located to everything we needed. 5 of us stayed in the house and other family members dropped in and out. The owners have thought of everything with a well appointed kitchen, nice linens, comfortable beds, toiletries, games, and more. The furniture is beautiful and comfortable, and the layout is great. We loved the screened in porch and had lots of fun playing ping pong. The kitchen is great size with pretty much all you need for cooking in or reheating takeout. Food Lion is .5 miles away. This was a great find!

Peaceful & relaxing retreat
My family of four adults sibling met here for a nephew’s wedding. It was the perfect location for us to come together for different locations and celebrate this long weekend together. It was so relaxing and the beds are very comfortable! I love that each room feels like its own space, love having a TV in my room! This home is very welcoming, extremely clean, don’t hesitate to make this your next stop when traveling.

We gather here for Thanksgiving to be with family and it was wonderful being able to have all 10 of us share a meal. The kitchen was well equipped for me to cook in a different space. We were able to play games and enjoy the day.

Most serene experience!
I stayed here for about a week with my husband and my daughter, and we thoroughly enjoyed our entire stay. The kitchen and bath have all the amenities that we need so we feel like at home. We spent a lot of time chilling on the covered patio, which we do not have here in Los Angeles. My anxiety and stress were completely gone while we were here. Now we want to move to Cary!

Nice weekend
The house was very well decorated. It was nice and clean.
The yard had trees that had been cutting down and logs scattered around yard.
The kitchen was not very well, equipped. It also had 3 or 4 dish towels and dish cloths.
There were no cleaning items in the home to use, and no extra trash bags for the trash can, aside from one lone bag.
There were a few things that were spotted upon arriving. Like a damaged blind in the master bedroom. A stain on the unsuite bath mat,
small bugs, and blonde hair was left in the bathroom showers drain.
Pictures were taken taken of these areas. I will attach them to my comments on Vrbo.
Daily rate is too high for the amenities.
Aside from these things home was very nice.

Terrific location and beautiful, comfortable home!
We wanted a central location in the Triangle area as we’re looking for a home there and also wanted to sample some of the wonderful nearby restaurants. This home was simply perfect for all of that and more! Beautifully decorated and remodeled mid century home with comfortable seating and sleeping, great open kitchen and gorgeous fireplace! These hosts thought of everything and were easy to communicate with - also very helpful.
You’re going to enjoy your stay here!

Perfect in every way!
We loved everything about this house and the host! We were in a major bind when another nearby rental fell through and we contacted the host about renting their house basically by next day. Shanna replied within minutes and had it ready to go in less than 24 hours. This house is gorgeous and the accommodations were so perfect for our family with 3 kids. There weren’t any house accessories that we were worried about them knocking over. The kitchen was amazing! Had everything we needed. The master bed was so comfortable like a high end hotel! We love the screened in porch and the fenced backyard for our kids to run around. They didn’t miss a single detail with this house. We left this home saying we wish we could live there, we can’t wait to be back. Thanks for a wonderful stay!!
