The house was nice but needed attention. The blinds were broken in the downstairs bedrooms and the washer made an awful noise. Hopefully the owners can look into the issues.

Starting with the positives, the house is in a nice location and surroundings are very pretty. We were very happy with the large backyard and play structure for the kids. It was also nice having all the toys upstairs for the children. The kitchen has newer appliances and was the nicest room in the house. We were in NC for my son’s wedding. There were 10 of us staying in the house. My biggest complaint was the overall cleanliness of the home. It was disgusting, to say the least. The couches both upstairs and downstairs were dirty, floors looked like they needed to be deeply cleaned, there was hair in my bed like sheets weren’t washed, most of the window blinds were broken so there was no privacy, there was mold in the downstairs bathroom tub, the upstairs princess bed was completely broken and topped if anyone lasted on it. We had to take the mattress off and lay it on the floor. I took pictures of everything and sent to the owner. She responded promptly and said she would talk to her cleaning crew but if we were unhappy, we could leave the premises. There was nowhere to relocate with that amount of people. I asked for a partial refund and was denied despite the pictures. Additionally, we had to go buy hand soap, paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags, towels and blankets since the house was so poorly stocked. It was just not a good experience for anyone. Also, there were many lightbulbs broken so lighting was poor. I would not recommend this place.

Cute, Quit Neighborhood

We stayed here with some of our dance friends for a competition at Fuquay High School. The neighborhood is charming and kid friendly. It’s a great location to town but yet feels so secluded. The host communication was great and she was able to suggest a fun afternoon activity after a morning of dancing. We appreciate you sharing your home with us!

Robertson Family State Fair Stay

Just a little miss communication about the check in process, but that got resolved quickly. The property was roomy and well supplied. My families 4 toddlers had a fantastic time playing in the upstairs kids play room for hours. We used the overhead projector to entertain the kids with a childrens movie. If there had been a safety gate at the top of the stairs it would have been absolutely perfect.

We enjoyed our stay at this house. We arrived waaay to early and the owners allowed us to check in early. They usually have an early check-in fee and they were gracious enough to waive the fee. The location was great. This is a house that is great for families with young children. Very accommodating.

Overall an ok stay for our needs. Not enough seating for 7 adults. 4 kitchen chairs and only a couch in living room. (What happened to the brown chair in the photos?)Please replace your bath towels. We ended up finding plenty but looked like rags with stains and holes.

Nice for families, but needs some maintenance

Overall, potential to be a nice property. However, cleanliness needs to better and the property could use one or two days of maintenance work (for example, the front door handle is loose, the bathroom door did not latch (we had to fix it) and the kitchen table chairs need to be fixed or replaced. We still had a nice stay and it fit all of our family members.

It was ok

We picked this rental because it had a backyard space for kids to play. However within a couple minutes of being there my kids got stung by the wasps that live in the nest in the playground. The back porch was pretty dirty and table and chairs had more wasp nests. We went to use the charcoal grill but it was full of ashes and dirty and we had to clean everything. Inside was surface level clean but definitely could use a deep clean. Also, bring your own silverware because there are only 5 forks for the whole 5 bedroom house.

Review of stay

The property is in in great location; beautiful, quiet neighborhood. Very easy to get to and from Lillington where the family is. house is very large and and can accommodate a large group.There was a nice welcome basket when we arrived.The master bathroom was set up nicely for guests.There were travel bottles of shampoo, lotion etc in both downstairs bathrooms but nothing in the upstairs bath. Here are the issues: 1. The televisions did not work - all of them. 2. There no movies for the movie projector; no game room per se accept for the loft area for children. 3. There is no hot tub or glass top stove 4. There is no leather lounger in the livingroom as the picture notes. 5. There are holes in the walls in every room where items were removed but walls not patched. 6. Screen door was completely gone but hardware there 7. floor was sticky so you couldn't walk barefoot. 8. Bins in loft against the wall were removed and sign laying against the wall (picture is different). 9. Empty bottle of hand wash in downstairs bathroom 10. no extra blankets or bath towels. sheets are polyester and keep popping off the mattress so every day you had to pull the bottom sheet back on to the mattress. 11. deck is full of moss; one of the steps is rotted; the deck table/chairs haven't been cleaned in forever. There are 3 dirty plastic adirondeck chairs; one broken 14. Window treatments gone; blind slats broken; clocks hadn't been set to daylight savings time

Perfect family gathering place

My 2-year-old grandson loved this place. Tons of outdoor spaces to run around in, climbing structures, and swings. Inside the entire upstairs was mostly geared towards young people and family time. The crib was a huge benefit...and the home being kid-friendly was a primary reason for choosing the house. With 2.5 bathrooms and five separate sleeping areas, there was space for all to be away from each other if desired. We were in town for a wedding and wanted a short drive time between the rehearsal dinner in Fuquay Varina, and the wedding venue at a castle in Angier. The Carolina House fulfilled our needs. The cost wasn't extravagant, and the amenities were not posh...it just felt like home. We wanted comfort and convenience and got both. A couple of minor fixes would enhance the property but we weren't paying Four Season hotel prices and didn't have lofty expectations. The home is comfortable and nice to have the added amenities of a w/d, movie projector (didn't use though), and the kid/toddler set up of crib, toys, and outdoor space. The cleaning crew was in the driveway right at check-out time and had to move their vehicle so we could get out, so be prepared for that...and in the age of bogus listings, etc., knowing that you won't get the "keys to the property" info until shortly before check-in time would be helpful. I was starting to panic if we had a legit place. Overall a pleasant, convenient stay.

Wedding event

The house was nice. A few issues that we saw was they listed and showed pictures of the movie projector and movies. There were no movies. The master bedroom had a tv was not hooked up to anything, It did have roku but I found the connector and original box in the bedside stand. The stove in the listing showed a glass top stove. the stove that is there is an old electric burner and the inside of the stove was dirty, looks like never cleaned and must of been switched out. Also mentioned early in the year, the doorknob to master bedroom is installed wrong, still had not been fixed. The 2 trash bins outside were filled, not sure if we were supposed to see that the trash collector picked them up. The pictures really need to be updated with the current items in the house.
