自我介绍

We're very young at heart boomers. We love to laugh. We also love travel, good wine, good music, good conversation, good food and interesting people. We have lived in Raleigh's oldest and coolest Historic District for over 25 years and have watched, enjoyed and participated in the resurgence of Downtown Raleigh. We love sharing Raleigh's treasures with friends and guests. Our philosophy as hosts is to provide "great getaways which are cozy like a bed and breakfast, but anonymous like a hotel". We don’t bother our guests on purpose and respect our guests privacy. But we're more than willing to offer suggestions on fun things to enjoy and the "insider scoop" on the best of the best to see and things to do in our towns. We’ve created Guidebooks which highlight some of our favorite places. We really love to get to know the real local culture from locals when we travel and enjoy offering the same opportunity to our guests. So by all means call us if you need us or would like to chat. Otherwise we'll give you your space which we know people love since we often don’t even hear from or speak with our guests.. Live with Gratitude and Live for Today! Yesterday is History. Tomorrow is a Mystery. Today is a GIFT....... That's why they call it THE PRESENT! Raleigh Properties You'll love The Little Nest as your Downtown Raleigh get away. It’s above the carriage house behind our 145 year old historic home. If you have a 4 legged dog kid, you’ll love our “dog friendly” Airbnb one block up the street called Sally’s Suite. If you need a little more room for yourself and your 4 legged pal, we also have a one bedroom apartment with a fenced back yard called Downtown Creekside Retreat. We now also offer a high end luxury Airbnb called Capitol Square Garden Sanctuary. It is right downtown and one block from the state Capitol. This property which requires a minimum rental period of 30 days. It has been highly desirable to people moving to or considering moving to Raleigh, people working here temporarily and remote workers. New Bern Property We owned The William Gaskins House on the Neuse River in Downtown New Bern since the about 2000 and now have a partner who lives close by and helps operate the house/ Airbnb. It is right in the middle of the coolest Historic District in NC's colonial capital. It is a fun casual and very enjoyable place for your visit with family, friends or business associates. The house flooded in 2018 during Hurricane Florence and the downstairs was a total loss. We elevated the home, built a giant covered back porch facing the river and have restored it so it is now better than ever. Winston Salem Properties We've owned and operated Gray Court apartments with great friends Phil and Pam Neari since about 2000 as we watched Downtown Winston Salem come back to life. By 2012, Downtown W-S had become very alive with Great Culture, Music, Art, Food, Beverages and Fun. It is now wide open with great restaurants, music art and lots of new businesses and apartments. We decided it was past time to have a get away place there so we could enjoy the fun activities which are going on there constantly. You'll have the opportunity to enjoy all these great activities and more at our Downtown Winston Salem Getaways. You'll love the 5 minute walk to everywhere in Downtown Winston Salem from the Winston-Salem Dash baseball stadium to great restaurants, bars, galleries, shopping and more! We now have 2 great Airbnbs’s at Gray Court Apartments. Please visit soon. We’d love to host you.
