A cute spot in downtown Cary. Walking distance to restaurants, coffee shops, parks, etc. We felt comfortable and safe. The proximity to Raleigh was just a 15 minute ride. The cottage was clean, had ample parking and the hosts even left menus from local spots and brochures about the area.

Spent 4 nights at this very comfortable cottage. I would describe it as cute, cozy, and comfortable. The hosts live on the property in case you need anything but are unobtrusive. Loved the booklet of their favorite recipes in addition to their restaurant guide. Location is very walkable to downtown Cary. Would stay there again if in the area.

The Cary Cottage was the perfect Vrbo for our little family. The location was ideal for walking downtown to restaurants, the shops, and the park. The house was very clean and the bed was comfortable. They even had a pack n’ play for our little one. They included a helpful town map, restaurant list, and an event schedule. We thoroughly enjoyed the house and the town of Cary. We would definitely stay here again!
