Fall light is our favorite, especially as Summer begins to let go....... the dance of evening light in our Skyline Suite continues to tickle us ✨
Say hey to Janie - the hostess with the mostest! Janie officially joined our team as our Assistant GM (AKA Deputy House Boss)! 🥳 Many of you have met her already since she’s been with us for a few months, keeping us in check and our guests happy! With a background in both art and hospitality, she’s oh so perfect! A few fun facts about Janie! She just got married in August! She’s a Meredith College alum. She lived in Mexico for a stint studying weaving - puede hablar español! And she was a work-study student at @penlandschool. Before GH she was rocking it with the folks at @durhamcookery. And we go way back with Janie - she’s Nicole’s sister’s friend and was ever so kind to bartend at our wedding! Janie brings so much light and joy to Guest House. We can’t wait for you all to meet her! Welcome Janie! 👋

We’re jazzed about our new Smiley Eyes pins! ✨ They’re magnets so that means no worries of holes in your classy guayabera. And better yet - they can also live on your fridge, spreading smiles along with your butter. . Available soon through our in-house shop...
Something very special is coming soon to the historic parlour... Two portraits of the matriarchs of the historic Gorham house will soon flank the window. We just got a sneak peek from the amazing @willart4food - can’t wait for them to grace these walls and honor these women. Keep an eye out. 📸: @pbcrosby
Getting away is how we celebrate and recharge. This past week we had the chance to escape to New England where Matt grew up, to visit his grandma, celebrate Nicole’s big change (more on that), and tour the valleys of the Catskills and Berkshires seeking renewed inspiration. We were able to do this for two reasons, we’re getting busy - which is awesome - and our team is growing. Nicole took a big step two weeks ago, leaving her full time architecture job (which she’s had for the duration of this entire project!) to focus on Guest House, and beyond 😏. We also have a new awesome team member who we’ll be sharing more about in the coming weeks too! In addition to catching up with family, we were able to weave in stays at two hotels we’ve been enamored with for some time - @touristswelcome and @scribnerslodge. Both equally unique in locale, experience and design. We gained renewed excitement for curating the Guest House experience here in Raleigh, continuing to refine what it means for us to be hosts in this wonderful city we call home.
So much action in the stillness. The sun always has fun casting rays and shadows on this creamy white canvas while @wyldeflowers’s twig install flirts with @tactile_wksp’s modern railing. And today’s wispy clouds kept waving down at us while we smiled back. This just might be our favorite composition in the space...
Sleeping in a cloud! The best compliment we hear (often!) is: that was the best night’s sleep I’ve had in a long time! We R&D’ed that ourselves for months before assembling the perfect recipe: @helixsleep mattress with @brooklinen linen sheets, blackout shades, and a @marpacusa sound machine! PS you can snag our discount code for the @helixsleep mattress that many guests have already enjoyed: GUESTHOUSE100 This dreamy guestroom is our Skyline Suite with a large private balcony perfect for sipping some refreshments while gazing at #downtownraleigh...and it has the largest double-shower in the house!
