Here Are A Few Kind Words From Our Past Guests:
“We've stayed in a lot of AirBnB's and this is one of the best. Great location in a cute town with lots to do within a walkable distance, and much more to do within a short drive. The home is just so cute, with all the amenities you really need without a lot of clutter. The beds and linens are soft and comfortable. The kitchen is well appointed for making meals or just grabbing a quick coffee. Debra is very helpful with pointing out local spots of interest, and she posted a very helpful quick sheet on the fridge about things like trash/recycling, check out procedures and nearby emergency services. I feel like I'm visiting a friend who cares about my stay. The sweet note thanking us for being repeat clients along with the little basket of snacks was really over the top. Def a gem and we hope to visit again soon.” - Darlene
“This Airbnb is adorable, clean, spacious, exactly as pictured! The location is great - in a quiet neighborhood, and walkable to everything downtown, including the conference that we attended at the Seminary. Debra is a wonderful host, responds quickly to every question and need! So much better than a hotel, & we didn't have to rent a car!!” - Michael
“Debra’s property is fantastic!! The location is great and within walking distance to the quaint Wake Forest downtown. She has made sure everything is super functional, and it’s spotless. My husband commented that it’s the best Airbnb we’ve stayed at. Highly recommend!!.” - Teresa
