Guest Access

You will have exclusive access to the entire property. You can check yourself in seamlessly with our Schlage Encode smart lock and keypad. (The code will be provided prior to self-check-in.) Free parking is readily available in our driveway (please do not park in the Cul-de-sac). To be considerate of our neighbors and to ensure the safety of our guests, we employ Minut noise monitoring (decibel monitor) in the living room common area and a Ring camera (monitoring outdoors only), as no parties or unregistered guests are allowed at The Dogwood Cottage. The MInute noise monitor only tracks decibel levels in the common area of the living room. The Ring camera is placed on the home's exterior to the left of the main entrance door and exclusively monitors the front yard and front door entrance. You will also be asked to sign a liability waiver after your booking is confirmed. If the waiver is unsigned before check-in, the reservation will act as confirmation and acceptance of the liability waiver.

Fantastic experience & stay all around! Christa was the perfect host and provided proactive communication throughout the entire stay. This home was the perfect space for my family. It was quiet and peaceful for a great nights rest and plenty of ample space for visiting and enjoying meals together. Grateful for a place to call a home away from home!

Nice, private, and quiet place in a safe area, within walking distance to Harris Teeter. The host was very friendly, responsive, and thoughtful. We were traveling with a toddler, and she kindly prepared a stair gate for us. Highly appreciated! Great stay overall!

My family and I enjoyed staying at Dogwood Cottage! The boys specially loved the game room. The home is super clean, cozy and has everything you need. It is also very close to major attractions, restaurants and stores. We specially appreciated how responsive the hosts were. Thank you, we can’t wait to come again!

Easy and practical place to stay while we were in town visiting family. Spacious with three bedrooms. One of the bedrooms had two large beds. It had lots of extra space in the living room and game room. Also there’s a foosball table!

Christa is an excellent host, the home was exactly as described, neat, clean, and perfect for our family stay. She called me to make sure we had checked in with no issues. She and her family were incredibly friendly and clearly wanted to make sure we had an exceptional stay. Will absolutely be booking with her again for our next trip to Raleigh!

The Host was one of the best I have had when staying with Airbnb by far the easiest process of checking in and checking out i have dealt with on Airbnb. The host was helpful, courteous and their home was everything they advertised. Very relaxing home and great area. Would absolutely stay again.

We absolutely loved staying at this home. Christa was an amazing host and the house was beautifully kept and very comfortable, especially the mattresses! We stayed here for a wedding and their full sized mirrors helped a lot to get us all decked up for the festivities. Felt like staying in a resort surrounded by beautiful trees. Highly recommend this home away from home for your next stay in the area. Thanks Christa!
