Space for a group of 13 to spread out
Extended families and friends traveling together get two complete homes across four floors, plus the rooftop deck. Each home has its own kitchen, living room and laundry, so the group can share meals and evenings together and still have a quiet floor to step away to.
A smaller group can book one home: Tessa sleeps 6 and Julianne sleeps 7. Comparing areas before you choose? See places to stay near Raleigh for groups.

One building, two front doors
Tessa takes the first and second floors and Julianne the third and fourth, with the private rooftop deck above. There is no inside door between the homes: the front doors sit side by side, so moving between them is a few steps outside. Each home has its own garage.
Tessa adds a balcony off its queen bedroom, and Julianne's living room is built around an electric fireplace.

The whole house opens for booking 12 months ahead, and Tessa or Julianne alone opens 3 months ahead. The minimum stay is three nights when you book more than three weeks out and two nights inside three weeks, and Airbnb and Vrbo apply the final rule.
