Charming Cottage House in Historic Raleigh
Such a nice little space and easy to access. We stayed here to run errands a few days before our wedding and it was perfect. They even allowed a late check out to help us out! Was bigger than expected.

Chapel Hill Airstream Hotel
Definitely glamping We had a lovely visit Very nice people and A lovely airstream. A fun adventure

Guest cottage close to downtown Carrboro
Susan was very responsive and took an interest in making sure everything was okay for the guest.

Central to Everything, Renovated, Dog Friendly.
Marianne’s spot was super accessible, super cozy, and super accommodating. Marianne herself was wonderful and greeted us as we arrived. It was our first time staying at a bnb where the host was attached to the space but it was a wonderful stay and we’d totally stay again next time we’re in the triangle. Very solid if you need a chill little overnight.

Cozy Cottage on a Hilltop
I had a wonderful stay at Mary's guesthouse! The space was clean, cozy, and felt like a true home away from home. The kitchen was well-stocked with plenty of appliances, pans, tools etc. which made cooking easy. The property itself is absolutely beautiful. Mary's gardens made for a peaceful and relaxing setting. The location is in a quiet rural area, however it's conveniently close to shops, restaurants, and centrally located to Durham, Hillsborough, and Roxboro. Mary was an exceptional host — warm, friendly, and very accommodating. She made sure I had everything I needed and was always available if I had any questions. I highly recommend Mary's guesthouse to anyone looking for a comfortable and serene place to stay.

Walk to downtown. Private stylish studio cottage.
Donna's cottage was perfect & absolutely beautiful inside & out! It was stocked with so many thoughtful added touches. She went above & beyond to ensure the cottage was spotless! It was a wonderful stay & we are definitely hoping to return!

Cozy Secluded Accessible West Wing
Loved this place so much!! So peaceful and quiet, and a wonderful trail to walk my dog. I would definitely stay again! Host was super responsive!!

Seomra Guestsuite in Carrboro
We loved staying at Seomra Guestsuite. Very comfortable, clean, attractive, great snacks! Aja is very friendly and helpful. This was one of our best airbnb experiences. Am recommending it to local friends who might need accommodation for visitors.

Hot Tub | King Bed | 3 miles to Downtown
the bedding and the hot tub were the highlights for me in this cute and cozy older neighborhood. Even seeing the older cars and older homes in the area, this place was freshly remodeled inside and out and I felt safe! thanks again! there is no microwave, fyi.

"Wit's End" welcomes you! 2BR comfy guest house
This little cottage was adorable. We were in town for our grandson's graduation. It was a perfect location at only 1.2 miles from our daughter's house. The home had everything we needed for our 1 week stay . The side porch has a beautiful jasmine archway. They were in bloom and smelled wonderful. We even had a wonderful firefly show one evening. We would definitely stay here again.

Cozy Sauna Retreat - Woodland Guesthouse
This place was just perfection! The amount of intention the hosts put into detail is amazing! I love wellness and this place had so many touches towards that. Felt so much peace! Thank you!

“Meelie Doll”~ Private - Cozy Stdio Apt abv garage
Camille's "Meelie Doll" is a true home-away-from-home. The apartment is set in a quiet, leafy neighborhood, with a well-lit parking area set back from the road. The walkway around to the back of the garage where the stairs to the apartment are located is also well-lit and protected by well-placed security cameras. It all feels very safe. Inside, Camille has equipped the apartment with everything you could need during your stay. I was there for two weeks visiting my son and his wife and their new baby, who live nearby, and I did not need any supplies replenished during that time. It was especially nice to find a homemade lemon cake and some cookies awaiting me on the dining table. The QS bed is comfy and the bed linens are soft and cozy. It was very easy to get a good night's sleep there! The kitchen has all needed utensils and the fridge/freezer is large enough for the needs of a family. The living room has cozy chairs and the A/C keeps the place cool. In all, a lovely place!

Guesthouse in the heart of South Durham
We had a wonderful stay at Tess’s guest house in Durham! This space was peaceful, clean, quiet, beautiful, and easy to access. Tess was communicative and friendly around check in and check out. Highly recommend this spot for anyone visiting the greater Durham area. 10/10!

Cozy North Raleigh Guest House
Taylor's guesthouse was the perfect home-away-from home for my stay in NC. I was in town for a 2 day course, so when I'm out of town for work, I generally look for a quiet space, and (as I like to cook) a full kitchen. I had everything I needed, the space was spotless and located in the most serene quiet neighborhood (perfect!). There is everything you need within a short drive as well...restaurants, grocery store, coffee shops, etc. I'd not hesitate to recommend this flat to anyone, and look forward to our next stay. -S

Light & Bright Starlit Loft walking to Lenovo Cntr
Comfy spot. Great location, perfect for a game or concert at Lenovo center. Had everything we needed for a quick stay.

Boarding House
Natalia was a great host. She responded and communicated well. I asked two questions during my stay. I appreciate Natalia's quick response and willingness to help. The place was neat and clean. I was very comfortable during my stay. It is located in a quiet neighborhood, free of excessive traffic, but conveniently within a 3–5-minute drive to grocery store, restaurants, & convenience stations. I will definitely want to stay here again next time I am in the area.

Guest House on the Cary Downtown Park!
We absolutely loved our stay here! The place was beautifully furnished, thoughtfully decorated, and spotlessly clean. It was so well equipped – everything we needed was right at our fingertips, making it feel like a true home away from home. One of the best parts was the location – it was an easy walk to Downtown Cary Park and lots of great restaurants. We couldn’t have asked for a better spot. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

Changes In Latitudes Poolside Apartment Raleigh NC
The weather did not cooperate for enjoying the pool, but we made the most of our time anyway. Comfortable place, friendly hosts. We would stay again.

The Rose Garden Retreat - NC State/Cameron Village
It is absolutely perfect in every way!

Duplex filled with natural light
Great “home base” for a couple of days in Durham: nestled in a quiet neighborhood yet still centrally-located, within walking distance of everything downtown and at Duke. Loft is equipped with desk and setup for remote work. Clean, lots of light, strong AC, spacious closet and shower—hard to think of anything this place didn’t have!

Modern Retreat near Downtown Raleigh
This was a great stay. A thoroughly modern over-garage apartment. Lots of thoughtful amenities and the location was great - close to downtown but with a inner suburb feel. Many restaurants, coffee shops, and stores nearby. The heated plunge pool and beautiful back yard space were a definite plus. The hosts were very helpful and friendly. We would gladly stay here again.

Urban homesteading in Carrboro
This place is a gem, and the description does it no justice. It is clean, quiet, and peaceful. Close to Chapel Hill and the sweet downtown Carrboro. We will return.

Private 'Barn'dominium with No Cleaning Fee!
Mark is an excellent host, is very responsive, and easy to communicate with. The barndominium is as he stated in his description. The shower is small and bathroom is downstairs / bedroom is upstairs. It has a nice kitchenette area (everything but a kitchen sink). He has a nice drinking water stand and microwave. The bedroom has a very large television, desk for working, and plenty of sitting space. The location was great for us as it provided easy access to Apex, main highway, grocery and restaurants. We had a very pleasant stay. Thank you, Mark!

Entire Apt: Amazing Walkability + Quiet Street
Angie and Chris are wonderful hosts! Aside from an extremely convenient, clean, and gorgeous apartment, they were always responsive and considerate of my space and experience at their place. Would highly recommend staying here!
