Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Raleigh

This was hands down the best Airbnb I’ve stayed in during my 8 years of using the platform. The house is everything I’d imagine in a dream home—spacious, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed. With three bedrooms upstairs, one in the basement, and three full bathrooms, it comfortably fit our group of five teenagers, my husband, me, and our German shepherd. Having three bathrooms was a total game-changer. The living spaces were cozy, the kitchen was fully stocked, and the peaceful setting was perfect for recharging. We stayed during Dreamville Festival, and even though it was a 30-minute drive to Raleigh, I wouldn’t have it any other way. The home, the setting—everything was perfect. We especially loved the outdoor swings. We stayed for three nights but could’ve stayed longer. The pictures don’t do this home justice—it’s even better in person. If you’re thinking of booking, do it. Perfection at its finest—you won’t regret it! ♥️

I must say that the pictures didn’t do the cottage justice! It was even better! It was so professionally designed and decorated! The landscape and surroundings were so beautiful and peaceful! I would definitely recommend it and my husband and I will be back!

Absolutely perfect spot. If you are looking for a lowkey vibe with plenty of space, this is the choice for you. Will most definitely be back next time I’m in town!

This place is adorable, much nicer than it seemed from the photos. It really seems like a home rather than a rental. Great fenced in back yard surrounded by trees made the dogs very happy.

We were visiting Chapel Hill for the weekend for the Tarheel 10 Miler. Chelston's home was perfect for us. The location was fabulous. Everything we did (the race, meals out) was within 1-2 miles. Besides the excellent location, the house was clean, very well-equipped, and had really comfy beds. I'm not sure my family will run that very hilly race again, but if they do, I wouldn't hesitate to return. If you're visiting Chapel Hill, look no further. This house is the place to stay!

Matt and Dawn's place was beyond amazing! My kids and I were only 30 minutes away from our own home, but this getaway was much needed. The location was peaceful and very cozy! They respond quickly and were very nice! I would definitely book again for another stay! We were in heaven at this home🥰.

The home was clean, walking distance to a beautiful park & library, and had everything we needed for our 3-4 day stay. The home was well maintained and we enjoyed our stay. Our host was responsive & helpful. Would definitely recommend!

The house was quiet and peaceful. The screened in porch was the perfect hang out spot. The hosts were very responsive when we had to reach out. Would definitely recommend

Beautiful place. Very clean, easy access, great instructions for checking, and host is very responsive ! Enjoyed our stay.

Ashley's place was great! It was clean, had everything we needed and both beds were extremely comfortable! She was super responsive and friendly. And the welcome basket was above and beyond. Would definitely stay again!

Our stay was wonderful. The location is good, the cottage was sweet and had everything we needed plus some. Rain is an excellent host and we would definitely stay there again.

Really easy stay. Very clean. Good communication

The apartment was perfect! The work space was great and it already has a display screen. Mohmeet checked in during my stay and was very proactive. I will definitely stay here again. The walls are pretty thin. It didn’t bother me, but if you’re a light sleeper it could be a bother.

I had a wonderful stay at Jeanette's place. The space is beautiful and in lovely location immersed in nature. Would definitely come back.

This house was exactly as pictured with good space for four of us to all have our own room. It was well equipped with supplies and Mary/Joe were very responsive and helpful.

Our stay was wonderful! It felt like home and was super peaceful. Host responded quickly and was extremely helpful. Definitely would book again!

This was not my first stay at the Scout House, and it will not be my last. Everything about it is perfection - from the location, to the property, to the sensational hosts (Marie & BJ). My stay was delightful in every way and I cannot wait to return!

My family and I love this place. This was our second time booking. The scenery and privacy is amazing. Perfect location for us to stay close to family who live in the area. We will 100% be visiting again. Harriette makes everything simple for check-in and check-out. Highly recommended. Get the real feel of peace and tranquility in a cozy cabin while only being minutes from town. You will not be disappointed.

This cabin is in such a beautiful spot! Drinking coffee while sitting on the back porch overlooking the creek is magical.

This cabin is bright and cozy, the environs idyllic, and Daniel was extremely responsive and went the extra mile checking in on us when snow was predicted before our stay and making sure the steps were de-iced and the boot tray was handy. very comfortable and convenient!

Pristine new log cabin is spacious and well appointed. We spent so much time on the amazing covered porch overlooking the private pond! No one in sight, perfect for renewal and relaxation. Kitchen and bathrooms are great- clean and perfect! We enjoyed watching the funny antics of the chickens. Landscaping was bursting with Spring color when we were there in April. Will hope to return in the future!

Liz is everything you look for in a host. She's thought of everything! I love blackout curtains, but rarely see them in Airbnbs. Liz has them as well as little stickers to black out annoying lights like those on smoke detectors! It's a small cabin, but we were able to spread out and spend 5 very comfortable nights here. Highly recommend!

Though I live close by in Cary, I needed a quiet retreat to finish writing my book and Barbara's place was perfect! Thoughtful touches throughout the home, incredibly clean, the kitchen is stocked with everything you might need to cook as if you were at home, and Barbara's communication was exceptional. I highly recommend this place for everyone as it's great for solo travelers, couples, or families. Make sure you have a sit in the hanging chair in the living room - it's delightful :) Thanks, Barbara!

A peaceful and quiet retreat- my dog and I felt right at home. This was just what we needed while visiting one of my adult children who is battling a severe health issue and being treated at UNC hospitals. Our hope is to return once a month to this wooded oasis.
