This cozy cottage was a wonderful place to come home to after my daily seminars last week. The neighborhood where the cottage is located is beautiful and very quiet. The cottage is well stocked and very clean. I highly recommend this location who needs a relaxing place to land while in Raleigh.

The cottage was a gem in a quiet, beautiful neighborhood! We thoroughly enjoyed the updated amenities and the spacious rooms. Each morning was a delight on the porch with a coffee after a peaceful walk. It is exceptionally close to NCSU and downtown Raleigh which was perfect! The host was most accommodating and made sure our needs were met with a cheerful smile. This will certainly be a place I would recommend and look forward to staying there again!

Cute Cozy Cottage!

Wow, what a great stay! The cottage was very clean, in a quiet, beautiful neighborhood. I found it to be a great place to work and relax. The kitchen was appropriately stocked if you wanted to cook or simply get take out. I couldn’t ask for a better stay or host! It is exactly as described and I am looking forward to my next stay there. I cannot wait to come back!

Peaceful stay

Traveling the East Coast visiting colleges and universities - the cottage was a great place to end the trip in a home away from home and be away from hotel life. Thank you for a relaxing stay.
