Exactly What We Needed

This vacation home was exactly what we needed. We had four families with 8 adults and 8 children, yet the house never felt crowded. The kids loved the movie room at night and checking out the horses from the decks. The pool area was perfect for the late afternoon. It is walking distance to the drive on beach. The owners had numerous beach chairs, boogie boards, and pool floats available. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could need. There was plenty of room to park. The charcoal grills outside were nice and clean. The bathrooms were sizable. Nothing but compliments from our crew!

Amazing location

My family of 17 had the best time! The house is in the best location, so exciting to have the wild horses walk right past the yard while we were swimming. Driving on the 4x4 beach is so much fun! The house is clean, communication with owners is amazing and prompt. A very relaxing vacation that was needed by all. We will be back again!

From NH

We had an amazing time in Corolla. The house was perfect, plenty of room and fun things to do. The horses walked right thru the yard, we were able to see them everyday. The kids could walk back and forth to the beach, and we loved driving over and setting up under a canopy for the day. Can’t wait to go back.

The weather could have been better but that is out of our control. The only thing we were disappointed about was the swimming pool at the house was so cold, we couldn't use it. We thought is would have been heated.

Great Family Place

We had 18 people, ages 1-80. There was plenty of space for everyone. Wild horses were so close many times. Lots of kitchen space and utensils. Close to the beach (short walk over the dune or drive). Not great internet but that kept everyone from being on their phones all the time. Most of the beds were very comfortable. Pool was used a lot (heated would be nice but we get why it isn't). Lots of beach and pool toys.

We love Utopia!

We are family of 18 from Pennsylvania and we LOVED Utopia! The house was exactly as advertised. It was clean, had everything we needed and the furniture was all very comfortable. The theatre was a huge hit! The house was perfectly laid out with lots of space for everyone to spread out. Even with 18 people we never felt cramped! The location is also perfect- far enough up the beach away from the crowds without being too far from town. We loved being close enough to walk back and forth to the house from the beach whenever we needed to. The pool and hot tub were a great way to end the day. We also enjoyed seeing the horses in the yard everyday! We would definitely stay here again!

Family reunion

This property had plenty of room for the17 of us who where able to meet at this lovely location. Enjoyed the beach the pool having meals together. The hot tub movie theater views from the decks. The horses who delighted us with their presence daily. Beach driving was bumpier and more crowded than I remembered it. But great adventure got to know children born in far away states and hopefully give them happy memories of us.

Beautiful Family Vacation

Thank you for letting us stay at your beautiful beach house this week. We had an absolutely, wonderful time. We took care of your house just as we would have if it was ours. Inside the house, we especially loved the shuffleboard game. That’s a great family game! We are even going to buy one for our lake house. The beach and horses were enjoyed by all. We hope to visit your beautiful beach house again some day!

Amazing week!

Me and my family just got back from renting this beautiful 3 story beach home for a week. The house itself is kept very clean and was not dated at all. The owners provide more than enough amenities that there is no need to bring anything than clothes and your beach towel. The beds were very comfortable and there is a TV in every bedroom. The theater room was a big hit for the kids and adults as well. The pool was clean and they provide plenty of chairs for everyone. They even have chairs to bring to the beach! We had daily sightings of the wild horses which was amazing. The ocean views and the sunsets were unbelievable! Great place to stay!!

dissapointed

house needs major attention and major upkeep. both fridges not working properly, electrical outlets not working on left hand side of upstairs kitchen, cracked floor tiles, upstairs stove busted, carpet in downstairs room ripped, both kitchen faucets rusted and leaking, pool heater not working, pool deck a trip hazzard, pool furniture old and beat up, damaged, beach chairs and toys old, damaged, most cannot be used, deck furniture damaged and left on upper deck for all to see, grilling area had horse poopie so the smell and bugs will annoy you, gate to pool area broken, pool wasnt serviced as stated on paperwork. mold and mildew on most balcony doors. our expectations werent too high based on the pictures we saw and of course we kept an open mind considering this is a remote area BUT, we were shocked. we had 2 family members leave and wouldnt even stay 1 night, the rest of us all cut our trip shorter than expected. sadly, will not return to this house. movie room was the best part of this house.

Utopia

The owners are fabulous in responding. It’s a short walk to the beach and room that everyone can have space. The horses visited everyday which the kids loved watching. The theater room was a hit also. We made many memories. You do need 4 wheel. Our only situation was it rained mid week extremely hard and roads to house were flooded and hard to get to without knowing where the sink holes were. Then rained more on day before we left which added more water to the already flooded roads. Everyone thought it was fun though driving on the bumpy beach.

A week away

We had some inclement weather so getting to the house was a challenge, but once we got there it was nice. Clean, check in procedure was well thought out and detailed by the owners. Lots of convenience and the home theater came in handy for the rainy days. Lots of morning and afternoon sun at the pool and shade too! Didn’t use the outside bbq but it was conveniently located. Lots of toys and floats at the pool to help enjoy our stay. Only down side was the remote nature of the house. That’s just my inexperience to the OBX locations, nothing to do with the house.

Excellent Getaway!

A great time had by all. The Movie theater room was a big hit as was the pool. The horses came up behind the pool to hang out so we could see them. Tides were HIGH this weekend, so we left a bit early as the tide stayed up by the dunes due to the winds and hurricanes out in the ocean. Plenty of room to spread out and relax! Property managers were very responsive with every question we had! Thank you!
