Wendell Home w/ Fenced Yard, Close to Raleigh

The kitchen was fully equipped all the cookware was not cleaned and was dirty beyond use. The coffee maker smelled because it still had water left in it. We were unable to utilize the kitchen.

Cleanest house I have ever rented. Had to book at last minute due to my Brother’s funeral. It was in a great location. I would definitely stay here again.

Where to begin? First and foremost the fish tank was completely empty of food in the timed feeder so who knows how long the fish had been starving for. We ended up purchasing fish food and filling the feeder ourselves. Having live animals in a vacation rental house doesn’t even make sense but if you are going to have them then you need to make sure that you are checking on them regularly and that is clearly not happening. There were no hand towels in any of the bathrooms and the soap was topped off with water instead of replacing it when it is low. This comes off as lazy and uncaring. The house is older and has some “quirks” like having to turn hot water on in the tub in order to get hot water going in the shower. The house could definitely use a professional deep clean and is overall missing that personal touch due to being run by a vacation rental company and not the homeowner. It is also extremely limited in the amount of amenities included such as simple things like towels, trash bags, cookware, etc. Communication with the management company was also nonexistent. I reached out to the company itself as well as our assigned contact and neither ever replied. Overall, it is a cute house in a nice area but is unfortunately being run by a company that seems to prioritize turnover instead of individual experience.

Pretty home in a very nice neighborhood. The house was clean, for the most part, but some maintenance is needed (doors falling in laundry closet, couch needs cleaning). Coffee, sugar, creamer, shampoo, conditioner, body wash all provided. Kitchen was spacious and provided enough cookware. No laundry supplies available, but w/d were available and clean. I would just suggest maybe a coffee table or end table in the living room (we had no place to set stuff down) and hand towels in the bathrooms. We're personally not fans of having to use paper towels in lieu of actual hand towels.

We enjoyed a lovely week in this quiet and peaceful neighborhood so close to the fun historic district of Wendell. The house was clean and tidy and offered everything we needed for our week away from home.
