Vanessa's home is SO sweet, especially the gardens, decks, and outdoor spaces. The layout inside worked great for us––comfy & large beds in three bedrooms, which accommodated me, my husband, and four additional adult family members. We stayed for two nights. We were in town for a UNC-CH graduation and Mother's Day weekend, but we'd wanted to stay further out from the Triangle, away from the hubbub and closer to other family in Winston Salem. Vanessa's home was PERFECT, and when my husband and I missed our flight down from NYC, she was flexible and coordinated with my sister to do check-in. Then, after check out, when I realized I'd forgotten some items (including my ID, ugh!) and needed return later that afternoon to pick them up, she was friendly and accommodating, even though it was a holiday (Mother's Day).
Other reviews mentioned the comfortable beds, the beautiful garden/outdoors spaces, and what a steal it is for the cost—all of which I can confirm. The neighborhood is pretty and quiet, and it was so nice to have a place for us (sisters & mother) to get ready for the big days together & unwind/relax at the end of the day. We had considered hotel rooms, because we knew we'd be out for most of the day, but I'm so glad we stayed at Vanessa's house, because the mornings and evenings sharing space together (rather than being in separate hotel rooms) made the weekend relaxing with plenty of family time—even though so much of it was running around for graduation!
