Waterfront vacation rentals in Raleigh

The house was really nice and comfortable. I loved that it was close to everything including downtown. We had a problem with the door at one point and they went out of their way late at night to come help us and fix it. Overall was really great and I really enjoyed my stay!

We had a fantastic stay at Christine’s Airbnb. The condo truly felt like home. The kitchen had everything we needed, the living space was comfortable, and the back patio with lake view was peaceful. We loved walking around the lake and hanging out by the pool. The condo is close to amenities and a very short drive to restaurants, cafes, and breweries in downtown Cary. I highly recommend this Airbnb and hope to stay again.

We really enjoyed staying here. The apartment was exactly what we were looking for in a comfortable place to stay. Jeff was a very personable and attentive host. He made sure that we had everything we needed and wanted. We would be very happy to go back and stay again if we’re in the area.

Great location and very responsive hosts! I appreciate them checking on us even after a late check-in.

The apartment is wonderful -- especially the deck! I had everything I needed in the kitchen, the bed was comfy, and it was very quiet at night. I loved that the hosts are dog-friendly. The only things I wasn't super happy with were 1) the host's dog ran loose (I saw him because he chased the family of deer out of the yard while I happened to be watching them); if I had been out there in the side yard with my little dog, I would have worried about their dog running at her and me. And 2) the deck wasn't as quiet and peaceful during the day as I had expected, because there were loud pickup trucks coming and going from the house (also a place of business, I discovered), during the day. I would give this 4.5 stars if I could.

The Cottage was a quaint and peaceful getaway! Private area to relax and enjoy your time. The place was very clean and had fluffy towels and a comfy bed. If you forget anything, not to worry, the cottage was stocked up with things that are commonly forgot, very thoughtful! Our host was friendly and responsive. My husband and I would love to come back and spend time at this beautiful little getaway!

The host is very accommodating and the place was very peaceful! The backyard feels very private and large! Perfect getaway.

Fabulous home in a gorgeous neighborhood and location. I did not want to depart when it was time to head home! The townhome was beautifully appointed with nice furniture, fixtures, decor and appliances. Each of the 2 1/2 baths was extremely clean with plush towels and quality shampoo, conditioner and soaps. The linens were sparkling white and beds super comfortable. The townhouse provides easy access to the Neuse River Trail - fantastic for biking and walking - through gorgeous tree-lined neighborhoods. The front door opens to spectacular trees filled with birds singing and even a few deer came by. Jocelyn, the host, was kind, helpful and extremely responsive - providing easy, prompt access and responding to messages. I highly recommend a stay at Jocelyn's townhome if you seek a beautiful home with access to the Wake Forest/Raleigh area.

Loved our stay at Villa Pinea. We are MCM lovers and this home is a perfect time capsule. The design and furniture are super livable and beautiful. The space is perfect for a long stay. There are spaces for work, rest and hanging out. The kitchen has everything and the listing is well stocked with all you need for coffee or big dinner. During the day, the house is serene and peaceful with views of nature from every window. At night you will be joined by all the sounds of nature including frogs and an occasional screech owl. This is a great place for rest and relaxation and Durham/ Chapel Hill are both 10 minutes away.

We really enjoyed our stay at Lacy’s! She was very responsive and the home was perfect for our trip. The beach front lake access was so convenient for swimming and relaxing. There is a grocery store close for everything you need. We plan to come back in the future!

Our stay at this lake house was absolutely wonderful! The layout of the house is fantastic, providing plenty of space for everyone to relax and unwind. It's impeccably clean and well stocked with everything we needed, especially the beautiful kitchen which was a joy to cook in. The master bedroom and in-law suite were both luxurious and comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep after a day of fun in the sun. The outdoor space is where this place truly shines. The pool was amazing, perfect for cooling off on hot days, and the expansive outdoor area provided plenty of room for our family to play games and enjoy the sunshine. While you can’t swim in the lake, fishing and boating are great alternatives. Clare was a fantastic host—so responsive and accommodating. Overall, our family had an incredible time here and didn't want to leave! It's the perfect spot for families looking to relax and have fun together.

We had a wonderful stay at the Cottage in Sanford, NC. The place was impeccably clean, and the view was beautiful. We especially loved watching the turtles, particularly the one with the distinctive shell pattern. The beds were so comfortable that we didn't want to get out of them each morning. Although we couldn't go fishing or canoeing due to the rain, it made our stay even more relaxing. Being off the grid was a refreshing change, and we thoroughly enjoyed our Father's Day weekend with my son and husband. We're looking forward to returning regularly! Thanks, Eunice, for being an excellent and accommodating host.

Furr Manor was a spacious place in rural safe area. The house in on acreage so there's plenty of space to take a nice peaceful walk out in the countryside. Travel was convenient to drive to our ballfields. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again next time.
