So my family and I came for a short stay as we were supposed to fly back home out of Raleigh. Upon arrival and check in I was in absolute awe at how beautiful this home is, it’s so clean and the attention to detail was amazing! Eric had everything from a highchair for our 11 month old and a beautiful pac N play as well, fresh Half and half in the refrigerator and plenty of little snacks and little chocolates my little boys were all over. Lol 😂 Eric was super easy to communicate with and fast response. He even gave us tips on places to eat during our overnight stay. We will definitely book again when my family and I come back to visit family. Hands down the best VRBO I’ve stayed at. It definitely felt like home 🤗

The Gateway Getaway was extremely clean and very well stocked with everything we needed. There were snacks as well as a stocked coffee area. The appliances were all modern and worked well. The furniture was very comfortable (including the beds). The backyard is securely fenced and great for dogs. I can tell that Eric takes great pride in the appearance of his property. Eric lives close by and is quick to respond to any communications. The suburban neighborhood appeared very safe and there are exterior front surveillance cameras and one inside the garage. Unfortunately the house backs up to a fairly loud and busy road with heavy semi-truck traffic. We needed ear plugs to sleep at night. Additionally, there is a street lamp on that road that shines brightly into the master bathroom. It is so bright that we had to put a rolled towel at the bottom of the closed bathroom door to keep the light in the master bedroom at a tolerable level. With these minor adjustments, we slept well every night.

We stayed at Gateway Getaway for 10 nights while our son was at Wake Forest & Duke running camps. Because of the length of stay, we really needed a place we could call home and settle in easily with our pups and remote working. Hands down, it's the best rental home we have ever stayed. The home is immaculately clean and very tastefully decorated. The kitchen offered everything we needed to cook meals - the gas grill was a huge plus. There were snacks, coffee, tea, etc. available to us upon arrival. When we arrived, the raised water/food bowls were already set up with fresh water for our pups. At that point, we knew we picked the right place! The fenced yard was so nice for our pups to stretch their legs beyond leash walks. The neighborhood was great for pup walks, too. Eric is an amazing host. Very responsive. Cared about our stay. He has thought of every little detail to welcome you into his rental home. We cannot say enough good things about our stay at Gateway Getaway! Truly deserves a 10 star rating. Thank you Eric!!

6 stars would be appropriate.

Eric was a wonderful host! The house was super clean and amenities were bountiful! We had literally everything we needed for a comfortable, relaxing stay. Would definitely book with him again.

Everything about this property is wonderful, especially the host! Highly recommend it!

This property and the host were absolutely awesome! Can’t say enough good things about it! The home was clean and very well appointed, and the host definitely took that extra step to provide a comfortable and warm welcome! Highly recommend this home and host!

This is a great rental, this location is centrally located and has worked well for our group of 3 adult men, we are traveling IT contractors who work in the RTP area frequently. Eric has been a great host. We will stay again for sure the next time we are working in the area.
