Good location
We stayed for thanksgiving. The property was a great location for downtown and my sisters place. It is a little worn and there wasn’t much in the kitchen so if you need to cook make sure you bring or buy everything you need.

This was perfect for me and my family when we came in for a wedding. Stacy was so communicative and friendly and the house is beautiful. It really helped that I was able to bring my dog with me--the block around the house was a perfect place to go for a walk. 10/10 highly recommend!

Excellent stay in Cary for family wedding
Stacy was an excellent communicator and so accommodating. We had a wedding at The Meadows at Firefly Farm. It was the perfect spot for our family, beds were comfortable and the main entertaining space gave us all room to spread out. Thank you!

Raleigh Trip
My family and I were visiting Raleigh for my daughter’s wedding. We stayed at the Happy Haven for five days. The place is very spacious, clean and well equipped with all that was needed. We had my 15 months old granddaughter along and Stays made sure we had all that was needed for the baby to be safe and comfortable, We had a brand new pack n play, a high chair and even a gate for the stairs.

Happy Haven
This was a great place for our family to stay while our home was being remodeled. The place was spacious and it had 4 bedrooms for everyone to get away and have some private time. A great place if you have older children too and our fur baby felt right at home as well. The host was wonderful and always answered my questions in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend the Happy Haven - it felt like home away from home!

Great location
Nicely appointed place with lots of room. We stayed here while attending a conference at the Shepherd's Church. The location couldn't have been better and the space gave us a good place to hang out afterward. Stacy was very good with communication and when we had a little trouble with the garbage disposal she had someone come out very quickly to check it out. We would stay here again if we come back next year.
