Charming Cottage House in Historic Raleigh
We had such an amazing stay at Alya’s carriage Airbnb. It had everything we’d needed from a full kitchen, full bathroom, tv, parking space, etc! It was very clean, quiet, private, and it felt just at home. We can’t wait to come back to Raleigh and when we do, Alya’s is def going to be our top choice :)

Chapel Hill Airstream Hotel

Central to Everything, Renovated, Dog Friendly.
Thank you so much for welcoming us into your lovely home. It was a very comfortable stay for the pup as well as myself!! I’ll be sure to keep you in mind for future travels. Marianne was a wonderful hostess!!

Walk to downtown. Private stylish studio cottage.
Oh, Donna is fabulous and her place is even more so! Absolutely perfect spot for a trip to the capital city— very close to downtown, very easy to catch an Uber or Lyft anywhere, and the accommodations were divine. We’ll never stay anywhere else when we come to town!

Cozy Secluded Accessible West Wing
This place is great! Close drive to Chapel Hill + surrounding area. Once you get to the house it feels like a totally different world.

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.

Peaceful guest house near downtown Raleigh
If I could give Arup and Krysta 10 stars I would. Their guest house is absolutely perfect, clean, and spacious. Arup and Krysta are incredibly kind people who made our stay very comfortable to where we felt right at home and did not want to leave. This was the first time where their bnb looks even better in person than the pictures.

Adorable 1BR studio in Five Points
Excellent place to explore Raleigh from. Airbnb had everything you need when you’re away from home. Host was very attentive and proactive throughout the whole stay. Would highly recommend.

Oak Forest Guest House
We had a wonderful stay at Sheri’s Airbnb this weekend! The house was impeccably clean and beautifully designed, and every detail was thoughtfully curated to make us feel right at home. Sheri was incredibly hospitable and truly thought of everything to ensure a comfortable and relaxing experience. We hope to stay again next year!

North Hills Private Suite~Walkable~Kg Bed~Fire Pit

The listing was new, clean and in perfect condition! I will absolutely stay here agin in my future Raleigh visits!

Cozy Sauna Retreat - Woodland Guesthouse
I had such a wonderful stay. It was truly the perfect little escape from reality. The space felt like a peaceful, safe haven where I could completely unwind. Everything was thoughtfully set up and so cozy, making it easy to relax and enjoy the moment. I only stayed one night, but it left such a great impression that I’m already looking forward to coming back for a longer stay next time. Overall, I absolutely loved my experience and highly recommend this stay to anyone looking for a calm, charming getaway.

Stylish Sanctuary with Private Garden & Parking
It's a really really really nice house. Super clean and tidy. Easy to communicate. Highly recommend!!!🥰🥰🥰

Guesthouse in the heart of South Durham
Lovely light filled space in a peaceful wooded setting. As a retired chef, I really appreciated the well equipped kitchen with full sized appliances. Looking forward to staying here again!

Boarding House
Beautiful spot! So clean and tidy, and the shower was really amazing! Spacious and beautiful. It would have been nice to have a few things like side tables and lamps in the bedroom, mat at door, more kitchen utensils, etc. But overall excellent price for such a beautiful little home. Quiet and peaceful!! Washer and dryer also available, which is a great bonus for anyone staying extended amount of time.

Carrboro Cottage-Guest House in Downtown Carrboro
We had a wonderful stay at this charming cottage in Carrboro! It was the perfect home base for our family of four. The space was cozy, clean, and thoughtfully appointed with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location couldn’t be better—tucked away in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood but still just minutes from the heart of Carrboro and Chapel Hill. We loved exploring the local shops, farmers market, and cafes, and it was always a treat to come back to such a serene and welcoming space at the end of the day. Our hosts were responsive, kind, and made us feel right at home. We’d happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and family-friendly getaway in the area!

Carriage House Studio in Quiet Neighborhood
What a great place to stay for my wife and I on our trip to NC! It was perfect, had everything you would need for you stay! We got in late and we're excited to see a coffee maker there! Would recommend, great host, central location, private and safe.

Guest House on the Cary Downtown Park!
My review speaks well of this rental. I wouldn't hesitate to refer or to stay here again. Having said that there are a few things I think could be addressed and one thing that may concern others. First the temps inside the unit rose to over 80 degrees making sleeping a bit uncomfortable. I attempted to put on the AC with no avail. While there are ceiling fans, which do help, the one in the living room makes considerable noise and we couldn't use it. The alleyway that leads to the unit is a loose gravel cartway with rutts. Daytime walking is not too bad however it can be dicey after dark. It is also a dark isolated cartway that I would not feel safe having my wife or others used alone. I think that the property owner doesn't give an accurate description of where this unit is located and how to access it. While the main house is in front of this unit on a main street the tenant has to walk completely around the block traversing this gravel alleyway to get to the street.

Carolina Cottage
We booked Kirsten’s cottage for a weekend reunion in Chapel Hill with some of my dearest friends. There was ample room and amenities that made it easy for everyone to be comfortable and reconnect. Kirsten was a fabulous host that made checking in/checking out a breeze and made sure we had everything we needed to make this weekend possible. I would a hundred times over book her again (and most likely will!) anytime my friends and I are looking for a getaway back home. Go Heels and go Kirsten!

The Rose Garden Retreat - NC State/Cameron Village
The Rose Garden was exceptionally clean, well appointed, and very comfortable. Its location was close to the NCSU campus, walkable even! It was within a few blocks of Cameron Village, where we walked for a few meals, plus had a grocery there as well where we picked up a few items. The bed was super comfortable and the linens were crisp and clean. The surrounding neighborhood was safe, peaceful and quiet. With having stayed four (4) nights, we found the Rose Garden to be a great find! We would definitely return. Additionally, Stacy, the host, was exceptionally responsive when we had some questions. The parking is on street, but very safe with a few restrictions, which we didn’t find obtrusive whatsoever. A very enjoyable stay for a great weekend in Raleigh!

Modern Retreat near Downtown Raleigh
This was our second stay at Lona and Jason’s place and I am sure we will be back. It’s a great private place to hang out while enjoying all that Raleigh has to offer. Their place has modern amenities that you will not see at a lot of other places. We love it here!

Tilly Guest House - Downtown Apex
My wife and I came for the Tobacco Road Marathon. Joel and Shelli's place was perfect for us. They were friendly and welcoming hosts. Their place is one most comfortable well-equipped and attractive AirBnBs that we've stayed in. Would love to stay here again next time! Thank you!

Water Feature Cottage
We enjoyed getting to stay at Larry & Sandra's place in Raleigh for an extended weekend trip! The place itself felt private and was in a nice quiet area, and it was only a short drive from pretty much everything we did in Raleigh. Best of both worlds getting to enjoy being close to everything but also having a quiet place to come rest at. Everything inside was clean and exactly as described and we felt right at home. The property that this place sits on is very well kept up with, beautiful backyward waterfall setup and lots of flowers everywhere, it's easy to see Larry and Sandra take pride in their place! They also checked in with us upon arrival to make sure everything went smoothly, super nice folks! Thank you for letting us stay here, we really enjoyed it!

New Apt- walk to everything Rockwood
The guesthouse was beautiful. The pictures did not do it justice. The space is very roomy, high ceilings, beautiful natural lighting, and the air conditioning was efficient. The bed was also surprisingly very comfortable. I would definitely recommend.

Treehouse in the Woods
Josh's place suited me perfectly.The kitchen was well equipped as I needed to cook my meals to take to a retreat I was doing. The woods are beautiful, Josh was very helpful and quickly responsive. If you want peace and quiet yet a short drive from all the amenities of town, stay here!
