House vacation rentals in Downtown, Raleigh

Awesome location and very responsive and hospitable hosts. Miles of paths leading to Shelley Lake less than 1/2 mile from front door. Any type of food/dining you can think of within minutes.

Great getaway with friends. Had some difficulty getting in but it was resolved with the host. The place was just as described with a beautiful setting and walkable neighborhood. Thank you!

Amazing stay in Raleigh!! If you’re looking for a stunning pool and beautiful space this is perfect! She was very attentive and you can just tell she loves her space she has created. We loved it all, heating the pool was the best decision:)

Wow! This is the most beautiful, magical home I’ve ever been inside! By far the best Airbnb we’ve ever stayed in. The creativity and attention to detail was unmatched. It wasn’t just a gorgeous home, it was an amazing experience that will live in our memories forever. We were in town for a show, but aside from the show itself, nobody wanted to leave the house even though we were 5 minutes from downtown! We all fell in love with one aspect of the house or another. My favorite part was the hanging porch bed. It was like being in a movie! Of course, we all went crazy over the secret entrance to the game room. The Wishing Closet was also a crowd favorite. There were 10 of us so a few of us “had” to sleep in the bunkbeds, but it was more like a luxurious take on a sleepover. The room was decorated so beautifully, the mattresses were thick, and the linens were luxurious. Not to mention, it had a PacMan arcade and voice-activated lights! The outside area was so beautiful and we loved roasting

This was a perfect Airbnb! It was exactly as it was shown in the pictures. Johnathan, our host, was absolutely wonderful. He was very communicative, answered all of our questions, and made the experience a 10/10. Whether you’re talking a family trip, or are in town for the long weekend - this is the perfect place!

We were in Raleigh for a family wedding and are so thankful to have found this home! Brad was an incredible host, always quick to respond and very kind, helpful in his messaging! The home was beautiful! It was spotlessly clean and in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood! The layout was so open, spacious with high ceilings, it perfectly suited the needs of our family. We felt right at home! The check-in instructions were clear and included a demonstration video! Made it super easy! The home is close to stores and restaurants! Everything you need! I am giving this property a high recommendation as well as Brad and his team! It was all wonderful from start to finish! We would definitely stay again!

The house was great! My kids love the pool and the location was super convenient to lots of restaurants. Dalia was super responsive and friendly!

House was immaculate, neighborhood was gorgeous… easy to get to…. The pool was nice but we got kicked out but the HOA president and police (we were not loud or anything- our kids just wanted to swim and it was later in the day and the cops said a party earlier in the day was too loud so the pool would be closed the rest of the day, sounded like bs but we left without a problem). Overall it was nice.

We loved our stay in Amy’s beautiful home. It was very nicely furnished and organized. Check-in was simple, location was convenient to downtown, air conditioning was excellent. I found the beds to be softer than my preference, but my companion had no issue. Highly recommend.

This was the best airbnb I've ever stayed in. Tastefully decorated, very clean and located in a beautiful neighborhood. Jess was able to accommodate a last minute early check-in request (Thanks, again!) and even had a few snacks waiting for us in the kitchen. Book it!

Had so much planned during our short stay that we didn't spend a whole lot of time at the airbnb but it was exactly what we needed with a place to come back and relax after a long day of activities. Would recommend.

The Place was great. I was in town last minute and William's place was perfect. Comfortable and accessible to several restaurants, etc. Plus, William's communication was really quick. I look forward to staying there again in the near future.

A little trouble getting the key. In the daylight it’s very difficult to see the keypad. This took us a little while to figure out, because we couldn’t see the numbers on digital screen. This could be added to the description. Apart from this great place.

We really enjoyed our stay at this Air B&B gem! It was very clean and well stocked with more than we expected. Ryan was very easy to communicate with. The location was perfect for us. Everything about our stay was perfect! Our daughter lives in Raleigh and we usually stay with her but due to a large family event some of ther family needed to stay in other places. I am happy we found this one and would not hesitiate eto stay here again.

Great location to downtown and 300 feet from a great park for kids

Kristi's place was beautiful, spacious and comfortable. The rooftop deck was fantastic with a gorgeous view of downtown, a place to grill and enjoy the fire pit. The Home was within walking distance to restaurants and shops. Our group had a wonderful stay, perfect place for gathering or to just enjoy quiet time, Would stay here again.

Perfect space for our family’s 2 week stay in Raleigh, NC. Nice, clean space, with great backyard for kids, and family gatherings. There was even an outdoor community pool within walking distance that our kids enjoyed (for a small fee). Host was proactive and very quick to respond to all our needs during our stay. Would absolutely book again, and will definitely recommend to friends who may be visiting the area. This place is even better in person!

Perfect spot to stay while driving through! would stay again.

Our stay at the Caraleigh Cottage was comfortable, quiet, and convenient for our needs. Everything was as pictured and described - and clean! The hosts provided great information and clear instructions, making check-in and -out simple. We felt very much at home!

Great stay! My family really enjoyed it—spacious rooms, a fun backyard the kids loved, and a perfect location close to all the downtown attractions. Highly recommended!

The house was great 10/10 recommendation I’m definitely coming back again host is amazing gonna make it a yearly thing

We loved Emily’s BNB. It was clean and well maintained. Everything matched as described. Emily was proactive in communication to help us easily find the cottage in the dark. The neighborhood was quite as well cute. Easy access to anywhere in the Raleigh area. We appreciated the extra little touches like filtered water, ice cube trays filled, qtips, and body wash in the bathroom. We will be back!

Was in town with my partner to visit & support a friend who lives close by looking after aging parents & needed a break & some loving support. Staying at Ashley’s creekside Sanctuary was just the ticket. Hot tub nestled under the tree canopy next to the creek was delightful. Home is well cared for & not your typical rental. Lovely neighborhood with mature trees & wide streets. Porch swings just the ticket to unwind or to slip out to answer calls. Bed was comfortable. Great kitchen … we cooked a few meals for our friend & they have a good amount of the necessities to make it easy. Great kitchen table & view out the panoramic window to the backyard & your own enchanted forest. We saw multiple red cardinals, hummingbirds & more while relaxing in the hot tub. They had Hulu & more already loaded to use so was helpful. Overall a great find, just what we were looking for, & we will be back for sure to see & support our friend & Ashley’s Creekside Sanctuary is just the spot. I recommend 🙌

Sure! Here’s a polished and engaging Airbnb review based on your notes: ⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Perfect Stay! We had an absolutely amazing stay at this beautiful home! The location couldn’t be better—peaceful yet close to everything we needed. The house itself is stunning, with thoughtful decor and lovely little touches throughout that made it feel warm and welcoming. The back deck was perfect for morning coffee or evening wine, and the veranda out front was just as charming. Every room was beautifully furnished, blending style and comfort effortlessly. Our hosts were fantastic—communication was smooth, timely, and friendly from start to finish. You can tell they truly care about the guest experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly recommended.
