Vacation rentals with a kayak in Durham

We only had a short getaway for my mother and I. It was beautiful and relaxing! The home had amazing views from all of the windows. It is very well stocked and has everything you would need while away from home. Tanger outlets aren’t far and a nice place to go shopping. We didn’t get to do much outside because of the weather but there were games and we were very content with enjoying the property from just the house. Honestly, I don’t think the pictures do it justice. It is way larger than it appears in the photos. There is only one thing I would suggest - a pair of binoculars. My mother and I both wished we had a pair while we were there to look out at the wildlife in the distance.

Legit best air bnb we have had. We go to Raleigh frequently to visit family, we have never gotten a place that was attached to the main house. It was totally fine, had its own entrance, great kitchen, lots of stuff inside for the kids to do like coloring books and puzzles. Location just outside the beltline off Poole road. I cooked a full thanksgiving turkey in the kitchen with homemade from scratch stuffing and garlic bread. Double decker oven, cast iron skillet, great ceramic trays for serving. Was great. Definitely hope to return for our next Raleigh visit.

The cottage on Cedar Lake near Sanford is a perfect spot for peace, quiet, and relaxation. The place is well appointed and clean. Beds were comfortable, which is one of the most important things for aging people when traveling.

The place allowed for us to have a wonderful weekend with no problems or worries. Would recommend or stay there again.

Our stay at Brian’s home was truly a delightful experience. For 30 days, we found solace in this one-story, three-bedroom house that catered to our specific needs, especially considering a family member was on the mend from major surgery. Due to the need for accessibility, we required a home without steps, close to Duke University Hospital, and Brian’s residence fit our requirements perfectly. Nestled in a serene, residential neighborhood, Brian’s house offered all the amenities one could expect. The tranquility of the location provided us with a peaceful retreat, away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The house was equipped with modern conveniences that ensured our comfort and safety during our stay. Brian’s home was more than just a place to stay; it was a haven that offered us comfort and security during a challenging time. With its strategic location near Duke University and its cozy, well-equipped interiors, we couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Jaime's place was a perfect weekend family getaway. The home was clean, comfortable, and had everything we could've needed (maybe the best stocked Airbnb I've stayed in, and the labels and instructions were perfect). Still, the greatest value was the location - we used the dock and paddled in the lake every day, we took in sunsets on the water, we felt private and secluded but still just a few minute drive from town. Jaime was easy to communicate with and made sure the stay was perfect. We'd love to come back!

A serene, relaxing setting right on the lake. Comfortable, clean accomodations. The hostess went above and beyond to make our stay the best possible. Every detail was attended to. Would definitely go back.

Can’t express how much we enjoyed our stay here. A beautiful home, in a great location close to downtown Raleigh. It’s spacious, organized, and has a very pretty backyard. Amy is an incredible host and made us feel right at home. Highly recommend!

My family and I had an amazing experience staying here! I booked the house based off of the photos and in person is even better!! The house is full of everything you need for a fun and exciting trip. We spent most of our time in the backyard. Everyone from ages 1 to 65 had a splendid time!Would definitely recommend to others!!
