Holiday rentals with lake access in Raleigh

I had the pleasure of staying at Heather home for over 3 months while our home was being renovated under an insurance claim. Heather is extremely kind and was wonderful in accomadating our booking extensions each time, going above and beyond, to ensure we didn't have to move on until we could move home. Heather's home is beautiful and luxuriously styled, with all the modern amenities to ensure a comfortable stay, the surroundings were very peaceful with direct access to the river in your back yard, I highly recommend this property and host. I hope to stay here again in the future. Heather is a most generous, genuine and lovely woman, and an absolute pleasure to meet.

Absolutely stunning house and location. Denielle went above and beyond to help clear some issues with air bnb and resolved the issue herself. We will definitely be returning to this house, close to the beach and when you step out onto the back verandah it feels like you are completely immersed in nature. The neighbours were really friendly too. My only negative is that we didn’t stay longer. Could not recommend this property and host enough, 5 stars isn’t enough!

Enjoyed our stay at Steve's house. Plenty of room for our family, and great location. Would recommend for anyone looking for a quiet area and comfortable accommodation.

We loved our short stay at Smithtown. Walking into the smell of freshly baked bread on our arrival was the perfect way to be welcomed. Thanks for having us Cheryl & Kev. We’ll definitely be back.

Great spot and easy check in. Would certainly come back :)

We absolutely loved our stay and the house had everything we needed, super clean and tidy. It was so close to town and we could walk /ride everywhere. The house felt like home as soon as we walked in and had the beach house feel we love. Stuart was such a pleasure to deal with and we can’t wait to stay again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had such a wonderful time at Jody and Dan’s place! The converted church is stunning. The gardens were lush, the surroundings peaceful and being right by the river made it feel like a true escape. Everything was spotless and thoughtfully set up for guests. Jody was incredibly welcoming and communication was easy. We especially loved kayaking on the river and relaxing by the fire pit under the stars. Would 100% recommend and can’t wait to come back for another stay!

Had a great stay! The place was very clean, looked exactly like the photos, and the manager was super friendly and helpful.

Great little spot for our overnight trip up the coast! Amazing garden and lots of living space. Thanks!

Enjoyed our stay here. The home was clean and tidy with all the things you need for a comfortable stay. Location was great, close to the beach and a great walking pathway for kids to ride their scooters opposite the townhouse. The bowling club was a great place to eat which was walking distance. The pool was nice and warm and perfect for cooling off. I would recommend staying here. Nikki was responsive and gave clear instructions.

A great place to stay with kids. Jan’s place was the perfect location for our family of 5. Easy access to cafes, the beach, playground and local shops. A wonderful balcony to watch the morning sunrise on the beach too. Fully equipped kitchen with all necessities. Easy access with a key lockbox.

Great place, great facilities and Communication.

Hands down, the best airbnb I have ever stayed, great host, beautiful surrounding with the view and restaurants at walkable distance, loved the welcome hamper from host (never expected that in an airbnb) RIGHT ON MONEY!!!

A peaceful piece of paradise. We will definitely be back.

Great accommodation and host. Thoroughly recommend.

Excellent stay. Beautiful location. The water near by was absolutely beautiful.

Beautiful little getaway! Loved having a quiet night with the spa and the rain! The hospitality was super friendly and accommodating. Overall such a great experience and beautiful place to stay!

Beautiful decorated oasis. The spa was amazing. Property was clean and very welcoming. We arrived stressed to the max and left feeling very relaxed. Loved the view and wildlife roaming and the kangaroos were an added bonus.

Debbie and Graham's place is fantastic; it has everything you could need for a really comfortable stay, including some games, and a very well-equipped kitchen. The view from the balcony is spectacular, where you can see many local birds. It's so peaceful and tranquil. We had a wonderful stay, thank you so much!

We felt like home away from home 🙌 Fabulous little house lots of character lovely place to stay , definitely rate it high cant wait to return 💯

absolutely loved this cottage, beautifully decorated , bed was so comfy and breakfast was a lovely touch. Outdoor bath was a nice way to end the day especially with the beautiful view as a back drop

What a lovely place, beautiful surrounds. It’s a shame it was so wet we would have loved to check out the gardens etc as they looked gorgeous. First time at Emerald Beach and it didn’t disappoint. The hosts recommendations on eating out didn’t disappoint either. Overall fabulous ! Extra touches by the hosts were lovely also. Thank you for a great stay!
