Fabulous stay

Stayed for 1 night at this adorable house! Convenient location and even walking distance to a hole in the wall tavern! The house was extremely clean and had everything you could need and more. We enjoyed the beautiful scene in the backyard and our children loved the swing. A truly enjoyable stay!

Perfect OBX vacation

Perfect home for our OBX vacation! Easy to get to the beach and excellent places to eat, yet just outside of the hustle and bustle. Peaceful waterfront property with instant access to fishing and kayaking just outside the door. House is equipped with anything you need to feel at home and anything you may need is provided as well. Didn't want to leave, would love to go back!

Wouldn’t stay anywhere else in NC

First let me say that Ms.Tanya is an amazing host. I was able to reach out to her before I booked to make sure her place would be able to accommodate my mom who is a double amputee and fine out how far it would be from where my son was getting married. She got back to me in no time. On the way down, I was stuck at the airport in NYC for two days, but Ms.Tanya allowed my family to check in without me. She has every and anything that you could need to make your stay great. She goes over and beyond to make sure everything is A1 for her guests. If you are looking to stay in NC, the choice is an easy one to stay here.

We loved it!

I highly recommend this lovely, peaceful house on the canal. Everything was super clean! We were here for 3 days and enjoyed paddle boarding and kayaking each morning. It’s only a 5 minute drive to the beach and close to restaurants and grocery stores. The owner was so helpful and arrived immediately the one time we locked ourselves out. Hope to return someday.

Favorite OBX property

Not only was this property clean and welcoming, but it also had literally everything we needed. We didn’t have to make trips to the grocery store when my adult children forgot their toothbrushes because the host Tanya has this house fully stocked with whatever you may need. She is super knowledgeable about the area and provided us with lots of suggestions of area attractions when our first day was rainy. We crabbed in the little inlet (my kids didn’t believe that chicken legs catch crabs) and took the kayaks out for a spin. I will definitely search this listing’s availability for all future OBX stays!

Quiet OBX getaway

We were thoroughly impressed and enjoyed our stay at Tanya’s cottage. We have multiple children with special needs and prefer to visit the beach in the off-season. This was a great location to land when our daughter was overwhelmed, close enough to venture out multiple times a day to the sights but removed enough to decompress. Everyone LOVED the backyard swing and kayak gear for our use. Made it very easy for everyone to get to do something they enjoyed, which has been difficult for our family for many years. We cooked many of our meals, and were amazed at how well stocked the kitchen was. The bedrooms had ample space for my crew, and two bathroom was a nice bonus!! Tanya was a great communicator and made the check-in/out process seamless. We are looking forward to our next visit already!

Time well-spent with grandsons

I would give this house a 10, except it only goes to 5! Tanya is a superb host and thought of “everything” necessary to make you feel welcome. Upon arrival, there was a basket of water and snacks, along with a welcome note. She provided everything you could possibly think of to make our stay comfortable. There were kayaks (which the grandsons took advantage of), life jackets, beach chairs and boogie boards (which we used at the beach), a variety of indoor and outdoor games. There was a clothes hamper for your use, extra toothbrushes and toothpaste, in case you forgot yours, hand lotions, soaps, extra everything for your use. The kitchen was well stocked….which hasn’t always been the case with other VRBOs. Another bonus was that the house was located near all the things we wanted to see and do. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone wanting a nice, clean, cozy place to stay. It was the perfect size for us and our two teenage grandsons. Generally teenagers don’t comment on the house, because it isn’t important to them, but our two mentioned on several different occasions how nice this house is. You can’t go wrong!! Thank you Tanya for staying in touch and making our stay so enjoyable.

Quaint beach vacation

This property was great! The house was recently renovated and well stocked. The host Tanya was easy to communicate with and even had things like beach chairs and toothpaste available to use if you forgot yours. The beds and pillows were terribly stiff/hard so that would be our only complaint. Perhaps they will break down in time. There was ample parking and ease of getting to the property. If you want a quiet location not directly on the beach, than this is the place to stay!

The perfect spot!

This place is a gem! The house is spotlessly clean with everything you need for comfort. The property feels out of the way, but is close to all the fun things, and is a beautiful, natural spot to unwind after a day out. Bring binoculars for bird watching! Tanya is awesome, and made us feel special. Highly recommend!
