Peak on First I Modern Bungalow Near Downtown Apex

Welcome to Peak on First, a thoughtfully designed three-bedroom, two-bath modern Craftsman bungalow located less than one mile from charming Downtown Apex, North Carolina.
Created to feel more like a boutique home away from home than a typical vacation rental, Peak on First blends modern comfort, warm Southern hospitality, and a location that makes enjoying Apex incredibly easy. Whether you're visiting family, coming to town for an event, traveling for work, relocating to the Triangle, or simply escaping for a few days, you'll have a comfortable and inviting place to call home.

From the warm wood accents and signature Carolina-blue details to the comfortable furnishings throughout, every room has been intentionally prepared with our guests in mind.

Comfortable Sleeping for Up to Six Guests

The home offers flexible sleeping arrangements that work especially well for families, couples traveling together, business travelers, and longer stays.
The primary bedroom features a king-size bed, comfortable bedding, and a relaxing atmosphere designed for a great night's sleep.
The second bedroom also features a king-size bed, giving two couples or adult guests equally comfortable accommodations.
The third bedroom serves double duty as both a sleeping space and home office. It features an upholstered twin daybed with a twin trundle. Use the beds individually or combine the two twins to create a king-size sleeping arrangement. A dedicated desk gives remote workers and business travelers a comfortable place to work without taking over the dining table.
With two full bathrooms, mornings are easier when you're traveling as a group.

Relax, Gather and Feel at Home

The main living space is bright, warm, and welcoming, with exposed wood beams, comfortable seating, and a TV for movie nights or relaxing after a day exploring the Triangle.
The living room flows into the kitchen and dining areas, allowing everyone to stay connected while still having plenty of room to spread out.
The kitchen is fully furnished and stocked for everyday use, whether you're preparing a full dinner, making breakfast before heading downtown, or reheating leftovers from one of Apex's local restaurants.
You'll find the cookware, dishes, glassware, utensils, and everyday kitchen essentials you need to settle in rather than live out of takeout containers.

Stay Close to Downtown Apex

One of our favorite things about Peak on First is its location.
You're less than one mile from Downtown Apex, putting local restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, breweries, community events, and the historic Salem Street district practically in your backyard.
Spend the morning exploring downtown, grab dinner or drinks locally, attend one of Apex's many festivals or events, and return to your own comfortable home nearby.
Peak on First also makes a convenient home base for exploring Cary, Raleigh, Holly Springs, Research Triangle Park, and the greater Triangle area.

Designed for Short Visits and Longer Stays

Peak on First works just as well for a weekend getaway as it does for a month-long stay.
The two king bedrooms, flexible third bedroom, dedicated workspace, full kitchen, comfortable living areas, and residential setting make the property particularly well suited for guests who need something more comfortable and functional than a hotel.
The home is a great fit for relocating families, traveling professionals, remote workers, guests visiting family in the area, people between homes, and anyone who wants to settle into Apex for a little while.

A More Personal Stay

Peak on First was created because we believe a great short-term rental should feel different from a hotel.
We want guests to walk through the door and immediately feel that someone thought about how they would actually use the space: where you'll drink your morning coffee, where you'll work if you need to answer emails, how comfortably you'll sleep, where everyone can gather at the end of the day, and the little things that make traveling easier.
Our goal is simple: a warm, clean, comfortable place where you can settle in and feel at home while experiencing Apex.
Come enjoy the character of Downtown Apex, explore the Triangle, and make Peak on First your home base.
We look forward to welcoming you.
