My favorite place to stay!
I have stayed at Susan's and Rob's several times. This house is great! It is beautifully decorated and in a safe neighborhood. And incredibly well-located. Vary convenient to shopping and the airport. The best part of all is that the home is set up to make you feel at home. Anything you might need during your stay is there. I highly recommend staying there!

Thanksgiving in Raleigh
Wow, what a place! It was convenient to everything we did and and was very comfortable for our lodging. They had everything we needed for a home away from home and even more. We were able to cook our entire Thanksgiving feast with the hardware available at this house. Thanks for your wonderful hospitality. We had a fantastic experience.

About the host

Hosted by Susan & Rob Bucklin

Host profile image
Rob and I have been hosting guests since 2014. We are semi retired and live very active life styles. We enjoy healthy cooking, gardening, our dogs (Hungarian Kuvasz), traveling when we can, hosting you and Hurricanes Hockey! We are scuba divers and love sailing. I am a stained glass artist and Rob loves to play tennis and pickle ball. We are both certified dog therapy teams. We loved Europe, Alaska and the Caribbean Islands; and someday look forward to traveling to Australia, Asia and Bora Bora.

Our Motto:
Live life day to day.... and to the fullest!

Why they chose this property

The house is very private, quiet and convenient to RDU airport, RTP, NCSU, UNC, Duke, downtown Raleigh & Durham, shopping, parks, NC Museum of Art and some great restaurants to name a few things. We have equipped it with pretty much anything you could possibly need for a delightful stay. If we are missing something, we are only 10 minutes away. Raleigh is a great area, where we are just four hours away from the Blue Ridge Mountains on one side and two hours from the beaches on the other side. We look forward to hearing from you.

What makes this property unique

The best things about this area are:
Location, because it is convenient to many popular destinations in Raleigh and easy access to getting in and out of
town.
Peacefulness, as it sets at the end of a no through access road in a very quiet neighborhood.
Friendliness, because your neighbors have been our friends for many years.
Comfort, because we have tried to anticipate all your needs while being away from home.
Then last but not least
Privacy, because having the woods behind and the lake beside you, the only interruption you may have are the
geese in the winter and the frogs in the summer.
