Such a beautiful home and Cam is so thoughtful in all he has done to make people comfortable in his home. Spreading the word about the gem of a house and would love to stay there again!

This was our second time staying at Cams home, and it won't be our last. Walkable to campus, downtown, Cameron village, and more! I love the house, but the screened in porch is my favorite place to sit and relax.

Forest Park House was nothing short of spectacular for our two separate visits to Raleigh this summer. We loved it so much the first time - we knew exactly where we wanted to stay for our mid-summer return. The house location and amenities are premier! There is absolutely nothing that host Cam has not thought of for his guests. He is extremely quick to respond to any inquiries. We truly feel fortunate to have spent time in this wonderful historic home. It’s a true gem!

This home is beautifully decorated and so charming. In the most beautiful neighborhood near downtown Raleigh, it was everything we hoped for! The owner was super communicative and flexible with our needs. We will be staying here again when we come back to Raleigh. Don’t pass up this gem of a home!

What a great experience. Easy access. Great location. A short walk to the Village District. And an even shorter drive to great downtown spots. Cam was an amazing host and made sure we had everything we needed. Check in and check out were a hands-off breeze. The house is immaculate and so well appointed. Modern victorian I'll call it. Lavish yet comfortable. We would absolutely stay again.

My husband and I and stayed here with our 2 pups and loved the house. The pups loved the yard and dog run. The house was so clean and cozy and Cam communicated so well. Wonderful experience.

This beautifully redone historic home was such a pleasure to stay in. From the decor, bedding and well supplied home there is everything you’d need in a home away from home for a family. My five year old was very comfortable here as well as our adult son. Within distance of many restaurants and a beautiful park. The home was tastefully decorated for Christmas which I felt was so special to have in a home. Cam was so accommodating and hospitable throughout the whole process which I am so thankful for. This is beyond a 5 star and we look forward to planning our next trip with him!

It was perfect! the house is beautiful!
We were in town to see my daughter who attends NC State, and it was a great location and very centrally located to North Campus. Parking was great because I know that city parking in Raleigh is very hard to navigate.
And the property manager, Cam, was very responsive and went out of his way to make us feel welcome!

Cam’s property was absolutely perfect. Everything as described and more. The light switches are labeled throughout the house which is such a great touch! Every question we had was answered with informative notes throughout the house. It was a beautiful home designed with comfort. Our furry friends absolutely loved it and the fenced in dog run and yard. Cam was excellent on communication and never left us waiting! We will definitely be staying here the next time we come to Raleigh! GO PACK!!

What a wonderful stay! The house was beautifully decorated and we loved every minute of our stay. Cam was a wonderful host! There were snacks! For us, the kiddos and even our pup. He’s really thought of everything. Right down to a steamer for those wrinkled clothes you may bring. Hands down one of our best VRBO experiences!

The house was beautiful! Just like the pictures. Cam was wonderful to work with! We arrived late and the lights in the house were on for us and Cam had handwritten us a note and left croissants and jam for breakfast! They were delicious. The area is so pretty and the house had so many little areas to relax and enjoy. I especially loved the screened in porch. It was so cute. Those with EVs will appreciate that there is an outlet in the carport. We charged up our car every night and it was ready for the next day. It was very convenient and there was no extra fee for using it! Very much appreciated! Can’t say enough about the place. Would definitely stay here again. Well done!

Easy parking, easy to access to supplies and whatever you could think of.. linens, herb garden, kitchen gadgets. Comfy beds! Easy to walk to restaurants. Gorgeous neighborhood. It was 100 degrees outside, but the house was cool and had a controller upstairs and down. Beautifully decorated. Very luxurious. We were very pleased and hope to return.

This house should be in an architecture magazine. Clean, warm, and welcoming!
Beware of the parking patrol person, so read the parking instructions carefully!
Worth every penny!!

We had the most amazing weekend at Forest Park house. Everything was perfect. The house is impeccably maintained and cleaned! The owner was so nice to supply us with fantastic coffee and snacks. It is centrally located for anything you want to do in downtown Raleigh. We were in town for a family wedding and were within a mile of everything to do in Raleigh and close to the country club where the reception was being held. We can’t thank Cam enough for being an unbelievable host. I have stayed in many VRBO’s and this is by far the best one ever!!!

Everything during our stay was amazing. Very beautiful home. Cam and his home is exactly what everyone expects and wants from their host via VRBO. From extra lienens, towels to every size bowl for our fur baby. He has thought of it all. His place and communication exceeded our expectations. We loved every moment in the home. Our fur baby loved and enjoyed being there as well. We highly recommended this place to anyone. We will be back to stay again.

Our four days in North Carolina to see the first few games of the NCAA DII College World Series in Cary, NC, were very fun and relaxing because of this amazing property! Its location allowed us to explore the area campuses and restaurants in the research triangle. We would love to stay at the Forest Park House again in the future! Our host was the best!

What a fabulous property! We could not have been more pleased with our stay. The house was spotless and had everything we needed for our stay. The location was walkable to so many bars/restaurants, the outside space was relaxing and welcoming, and Cam could not have been a better host. His response time to inquiries was immediate, and all the little “extras” in the house were greatly appreciated.

They did SUCH a great job with this house. It’s so well decorated and READY for guests - you’ll see what I mean when you stay. Everything is labeled with directions and it truly seems like they thought of everything.
Only issue we had was the power went out and with young kids we were nervous about it getting too cold and their milk/food spoiling. Apparently this is an issue in this area bc we heard the neighbors generator turn on immediately. Unfortunately, the generator for this house was being installed on the Monday after we left, so we didn’t have that luxury, but future renters will have backup. :) We “survived” the power outage just fine as it was restored within a couple hours.
The kitchen is a bit smaller than it looks in photos. just a heads up that it could get a little tight in there, especially for bigger people.
Also, the 3rd bedroom is really a loft in the upstairs office and there’s a metal spiral staircase going up. We thought this would be where my 5yo would sleep until we saw the spiral staircase. That made us nervous if he got scared or woke up in the middle of the night. Luckily, there was an air mattress with all the necessary linens that he could use instead. The loft might be ideal for kids, but probably better for older kids (middle school to college-aged, IMO). The ceiling is slanted and I don’t know if you could stand straight up there to be honest.
All in all, it was a great place to stay. We felt comfortable in the home, it was a great location, and we’d definitely stay here again.
