DOGS PLAYING LIKE CHILDREN IN THE SNOW












Here is our dogs, Chimay the standard poodle, the backyard checking things out. She had a blast running, jumping, and eating snow. She chased her little brother, Chouffee the miniature poodle, around the backyard. They both got a lot of exercise which was good. Chouffee got cold after about 30 minutes and he went in, but Chimay stayed out for a little while longer.
CRAZY DOGS! Played just like two kids.

SNOW? IN RALEIGH? CHRISTMAS DAY?


Here is a photo of the front of the Inn on the morning of December 26, 2010. WHO SAYS IT IS THE SUNNY SOUTH??!! It started snowing in Raleigh about 11pm on Christmas evening. by morning, we had about 7 inches of snow! It was a wet one, too. You can tell by the tree branches sort of hanging low.

February - Valentine's Day


MONDAY, FEBRUARY 14TH.......

Although it is called Valentine's Day, we in the Inn business celebrate it as Valentine's month. The reason being, we do not have enough rooms to accommodate all of the guests who wish to celebrate it on that one specific day. So, people come throughout the month to celebrate this romantic time with their loved one. Check out our website. If you have an idea of what you want to do, ask us if it is possible, we can then give you an idea of what the cost will be.

The Day is coming up fast, so if you want to celebrate with that special person in your life, hurry and book a room. Even if you are located just in Raleigh or nearby, in the past, we have had many a guests be local, but just want something different and unique. Stay at Raleigh's first Bed & Breakfast; established in 1984.

Three Carolina Hurricanes Players in NHL All Star Game

RALEIGH, N.C. — Several Carolina Hurricanes will be playing in the All-Star Weekend in Raleigh.
Center Eric Staal and goalie Cam Ward were selected to play in the All-Star Game while rookie Jeff Skinner was one of 12 first-year players chosen for the SuperSkills Competition. The three of these players have had great seasons and will do well in participating in this event. The great thing about it, is that these three players will be playing in front of their loyal fan base. Hockey is doing well down here in the South. Carolina has a great team. With three of its top players in the NHL All Star game on January 30, 2011, it should be a big win!
Staal, Ward and Skinner take it as an honor for them to play in the NHL All Star game especially since it is in their home town of Raleigh, but it is a joy for us fans!
Come join the fun and game on weekend of January 28-30, 2011. We still have rooms available at the Oakwood Inn Bed & Breakfast.

"When the 'Canes are home, you make RBC Center one of the loudest places in sports."

Carolina President and General Manager Jim Rutherford and team owner Peter Karmonos, Jr. said hosting an All-Star Game will offer a tremendous boon for the capital city of North Carolina. Not to mention the fact fans will absolutely go bonkers for All-Star Weekend
