The Stays


From our two restored historic farmhouses to future woodland retreats, our stays are thoughtfully designed to feel both timeless and livable—places where past and present meet, and where space, silence, and simplicity are part of the experience.

Each stay at Buffalo Woods is rooted in the same idea:

  • preserving land
  • honoring history
  • and offering a quiet place to rest.

Which farmhouse is right for us?

Buffalo Woods offers two restored farmhouses, each with its own character. The King Mary House sleeps up to 6 guests and is ideal for smaller groups, while the Davis Homeplace accommodates up to 8 guests. Larger groups can reserve both homes together.


What is it like to stay on a working family farm?

Buffalo Woods is a fifth-generation family farm where agriculture is still part of everyday life. During your stay, you may see cattle, crops, farm equipment, or other seasonal activity while enjoying the privacy and quiet of your own farmhouse.


How far is Buffalo Woods from Raleigh?

Buffalo Woods is located just outside Wendell, about 30 minutes from downtown Raleigh. Guests enjoy being close enough to restaurants, museums, shopping, and sporting events while returning each evening to a peaceful country setting.


Can we book both houses together?

Yes. The King Mary House and Davis Homeplace are just a short walk apart, making them ideal for extended families, reunions, wedding parties, or groups traveling together.

We had an absolutely incredible stay at Sydney’s fabulous historic farmhouse! From start to finish, Sydney was a top-notch host.

The farmhouse itself is the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern comfort. It’s beautifully maintained, thoughtfully designed, and fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. You truly get the best of both worlds: cozy countryside character with all the modern amenities.

We loved every single moment of our stay—from the peaceful surroundings to the little details that made it feel like home. And yes… we already miss the cows!

Our experience with Sydney and her house is what Airbnb should model as the “standard” requirement for all participating owners…We’ve stayed in 40+ rental properties across ABnB (and other) and this was the closest to perfection that my family and I have experienced! Kudos to Sydney and their level of care and detail.

Sydney is an incredible host! She thought of every detail inside the house. And the house is absolutely perfect. It was spotlessly clean. We used the kitchen extensively, and everything was modern and pristine. The beds and bedding were comfortable. The sunroom was peaceful and such a relief after daily meetings. The house sits off the main road in such a way that it feels like it's hidden in the woods. It's surrounded by trees and backyard animals (rabbits, squirrels, birds). We can't wait to stay here again!
