Great Stay for Family Weekend

Excellent location and accommodations

Highly recommend Wolfpack Cottage! We walked to restaurants, shops and NCState campus each day. We also appreciated the neighborhood surrounding the house for taking walks. The Raleigh Rose Garden was just a block away and is a beautiful destination. The sitting area outside complete with red Adirondack chairs was a favorite spot. This home was well-appointed and perfect for our family during our orientation at NCState. We’ll definitely be back!

Perfect family retreat

Absolutely loved our stay at the Wolfpack cottage celebrating our daughter’s graduation with 12 family members! We loved having the fire pit courtyard where everyone could congregate to catch-up each day and also have cornhole tournaments! We cooked each night and were not at a loss for any amenities! It was a great week and I highly recommend for any group get togethers. Close to everything!

Amazing home and outdoor space!

The homes are both beautiful inside. They are comfortable and cozy. We had every room full and were very comfortable. We loved the outdoor space and spent many hours playing cornhole. It was very convenient to be able to walk to campus.

Visit to NCSU

What a wonderful 3 night stay. The cottages were immaculate and cozy. Well equipped kitchens, comfortable furniture and beds. Walking distance to the University Campus and not far from various shops and dining options. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. I highly recommend, and would stay again if I ever visit the university again. peaceful.

5 Stars Family Time

We had a great stay at the Wolfpack cottage. It is in a great location near NC state, Village District, grocery stores, etc. It is like a duplex and we rented both sides for our family. Everything was very nice, from the kitchen being well stocked with cooking utensils to the bedding for chilly nights. We really enjoyed the fire pit area. We wish we would have found it 4 years ago when we started spending Thanksgiving up in Raleigh!

Perfect home-away-from-home base from which to explore NC State

We LOVED our stay at Wolfpack Cottage! My husband and I brought our 3 kids, ages 12, 14 and 17, to Raleigh so we could visit North Carolina State University as our oldest is a junior in the early stages of his college search, and we think NC State could be a great option for him. This property was the ideal location from which to explore campus and the surrounding area. The home was beautifully decorated, well equipped and very comfortable. It was surprisingly quiet given its proximity to campus. Communication with our hosts was fantastic. We would highly recommend staying here and hope to do so again ourselves.

Wolfpack Stay

Overall this was a great place to stay. Very very clean and we loved the two separate spaces. We did think that comfortably only 11 people should stay in the space. We did have a kid that ended up sleeping on the couch due to space. The host was very easy to communicate with and it was a great location. I would definitely recommend renting this space!

The property is immaculate and very well thought out. The little touches that the host provides were wonderful! It’s the perfect location for celebrating Graduation with family or just a weekend away. The furniture and bedding are very comfortable The rainfall showers were lovely. Located very close to many shops, restaurants and NCSU. Off street parking was perfect. The host is very responsive and goes above and beyond. If you are in Raleigh don’t hesitate to stay!

What a great stay! This place was perfect for our group and gave us room to spread out and have a bit of healthy separation. Beata's an amazing host.
