About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Serene Sanctuary - Lake View!

This inviting retreat is a private unit inside a home. You'll have your own private entrance and space (almost like a duplex).

It's nestled among towering trees with lake views. Enormous sliding glass doors let in natural light. Step outside onto the spacious front deck where you can breathe in the fresh air and have a drink as the sun sets over the water.

2 miles to Umstead State Park
6 miles to RDU airport
5 miles to Brier Creek's shopping & restaurants
10 miles to Research Triangle Park.

The house owner lives in the other side of the house and sometimes uses the front and back decks.

There are two dogs in the main area of the home and you may hear them from time to time.

There is one thermostat for the house and we will adjust it for you the best we can.

The kitchenette has a large microwave that doubles as a convection oven, a toaster oven and a two burner hotplate. There are pots and pans, cooking utensils, basic spices, dishes, and flatware.

A twin mattress can be set up for sleeping but host needs a 24 hour notice.

It was a nice little spot but it didn't work for my needs and Darla was amazing and understanding and refunded my money even though it was day of check in.

Awesome bathroom and shower. Big main room with a love seat and big bed. Good office table for a laptop and little 40” tv in the corner to keep some background noise going. Everything was provided including shampoo, soap, conditioner, toothpaste, tooth brush, etc. even laundry and dish detergents. Plenty of plates and bowls and silverware if you need that. Crazy good view of a wonderful lake. Conveniently located near the Brier Creek shopping malls and a bunch of other ones to the south. Incredibly easy to get to 540 and 40 and 70. I was about 15 mins from my work off of page road. 10/10. 5 star. Would def recommend for 1-4 people for a chill spot right near a bunch of main arteries but on its own private road. There’s also a little back patio area and the front deck is amazing - you’ll lose yourself with the view it has. No bugs. No rodents. Clean everything. Dark if you want it to be or lit up and sunlit if you pull back the curtains and use the huge front window/sliding door entrance area. Driveway is a bit steep, but I was able to backup into a direct spot easily with an SUV and you can always park on the ample road.

The property is set in a beautiful tranquil location and is ideally situated between RDU International Airport and downtown Raleigh.For anyone looking for a relaxed stay, this is the place to be. All the necessary amenities are included for your stay, and Darla the property manager is extremely helpful and can provide information on local amenities. I would highly recommend a stay at Serene Sanctuary.

Nice people, quiet, pleasant view

This is a very quiet community with a lake in the center, which has close proximity to a lot of shopping, restaurants, etc. The unit itself is perfect for 1-2 folks, who appreciate quiet and serenity, and who are in town for essentially any reason. Very pleasant host also.
