Beach House Vacay

Check in was seamless. House was as described. Owner was responsive to a couple of items and took care of concerns quickly without impacting our enjoyment of the property. Pool area was great and cleaned during our stay. Highly recommend. A little far from the beach but the bikes were a nice feature. Overall, great place!

The Lucky Viking Stay

We had an amazing stay at this OBX property! Our group of 10, ranging from kids to teens to adults, had more than enough space to relax and enjoy. The pool and tiki bar were absolute highlights—perfect for soaking up the sun and hanging out together. Amy was a fabulous host. She was incredibly responsive, helpful, and so pleasant to communicate with. Booking and coordinating with her was seamless from start to finish. Highly recommend this home for any family or multi-generational group looking for a fun and comfortable OBX getaway!

This house was absolutely perfect for our family of 13! It was clean, spacious, had a very clean well-stocked kitchen, and the pool area was amazing! The walk to the beach was a little on the long side, but totally worth it. The host was easy to reach and very responsive to our needs. We would definitely stay here again!

The Lucky Viking was a wonderful choice on the Outer Banks for our group of friends to get together. A short walk to the beach, close to shops and restaurants. The home is amazing with a pool, outdoor bar, hot tube and almost every amenity you could ask for. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed every minute of our visit.

We loved our stay at the lucky viking, between the overall amenities provided and the proximity to the beach there was so much to do. Corolla was lovely and we will definitely be returning. The cleaning service could have done a better job cleaning under the beds and cleaning the dead bugs from the window sills, but other then that the property was very clean. Overall a great time had by all.

Plenty of parking. Close walk to beach and Currituck Lighthouse, park and views of sound are only 5 mins drive. Sand driving within 5 mins also...great fishing and wild horses on the beach.

This was definitely plenty of space for 13 adults and 2 children! The beds were more comfortable than your typical rental property and we had all our bathrooms working. The kitchen had plenty of utensils and pots and pans, though the only food present was some spices in the spice rack, so it’s important to plan on needing to bring things like your own food, toiletries, and toilet paper (or buy in town - grocery stores are nearby). We really enjoyed the walking path to the beach, it is a big improvement on walking on the street to the beach!

This was a wonderful spot for my family. There was plenty of room for everyone and the open kitchen and living room gave us all a chance to be together. The place was very clean, and the amenities were plentiful. The elevator was especially helpful since quite a few of us were seniors with handicaps. The contact was very friendly and helpful, too. I highly recommend this rental.
