We found a lot to love about Herbst Cottage! While the layout is a little unconventional (the huge master bedroom is the only direct route in and out of the house to the back decks and pool), the spaces were big enough for 10 people, and the places we were most interested in, which were the kitchen, backyard/pool, and beach access, were really great. Well equipped with the exception of broken dishwashers (both indoor and tiki bar were broken most of the week) and a leaking ice machine. Response by the owners was quick, though we had to hand wash a lot of dishes, not their fault. The house has a great deal of space available underneath (weather protected), and the pool and backyard were truly a great hangout space for all of us and the dog. Yard games, beach chairs, great seating everywhere you look. The Tiki Bar was a unique and consistently used space. If you like cold beverages, you have many options for cooling them off in this house! Beach access was a short walk, not much further than the oceanfront houses enjoy, with the East Wilkins beach access a literal stone's throw away. Restaurants and groceries (including a Super WalMart) are very close, as you would expect at MP3. Getting on to and off of the island is also super quick and easy from this location. Check in was simple and easy, the house was clean on arrival, Wifi was strong and easy to access. Everyone loved this house and it's location.

Great family vacation house! We are a family of 10 and we all loved this house and would definitely stay there again. Loved that you just walked across the street and you were on the beach, pool and hot tub were enjoyed every day! Bathroom in every bedroom and extra one by the pool. Outside shower was a plus. Ice machines are another plus.Nice yard, corn hole games every day, and plenty of room to throw the football.The house had everything we needed, and was very clean! Also was so nicely decorated. We had a great week, wish it was longer! Thank you.

Excellent Vacay Beach Home

We had 9 family members. The home was lovely, spacious and had that pool which was used a lot. The house is near the ocean, shopping, restaurants and points of interest. The only con would be more umbrellas/shade sails by the pool and the multiple decks. It was really hot while we were in Kitty Hawk!

Ideal Outer Banks beach house

Myself, my wife and our dog, along with my brother, his wife, 4-year-old son and my parents, had a wonderful stay at Herbst Cottage! The location was especially ideal for us, being right across the street from the beach and close to all the stores, restaurants and entertainment we wanted during our weeklong vacation. The house was incredible, and we especially enjoyed the pool and the tiki bar. We also appreciated that there were lots of different nooks and crannies on the property to sit and enjoy the views or to play games together. The host was incredibly helpful and promptly responded to all of our questions. We would love to stay again sometime!

Excellent home for families

We are a family of 9 and found this home to have all the amenities we hoped for and more. Well stocked kitchen, close to beach access, pool, (not heated), comfy furniture, and very clean outdoor furniture. We appreciated the host family’s communication and quick response time. In sum, this home exceeded our expectations. If there was a con worth mentioning it would be that we had no bar soap or any toiletries for the bathrooms. Easily solved, though, with a quick trip to the store. Thanks for the use of your lovely home.

We had mom, dad, 3 kids ages 3, 9, 10 and grandma. It was perfect, everyone had their own space and plenty of room to all be together! They responded to any questions we had right away and were incredibly nice.

Love, Love, Love

For the most part all was good. The windows could use a little more attention, as obviously there had been a large dog there and had left nose prints on the windows, no deal breaker for sure and the sliding glass door, bottom rail needed some cleaning. The door was difficult to open and close due to the build up. We actually cleaned it a little our selves. I am definitely looking forward to staying at your home again. It is absolutely perfect for our group of ladies.

Fantastic Stay for Families with Young Children!

Absolutely! I'd be happy to help you write a review for the VRBO vacation house in the Outer Banks. Here's a draft that you can customize and use as a starting point: Our recent stay at the VRBO vacation house in the Outer Banks was truly exceptional. We had a group of several adults, two babies, and two toddlers, and a dog. The house was the perfect accommodation for our needs. First and foremost, the owner was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout our stay. They promptly assisted us with a couple of minor issues that arose, and their excellent communication made our experience even more enjoyable. The house itself exceeded our expectations. It was spacious, well-maintained, and beautifully furnished. We were especially impressed with how well-suited it was for families with young children. The bedrooms were comfortable and allowed for privacy, and the common areas were spacious enough for everyone to gather and relax. The house provided several large items which allowed for easier packing. One of the highlights of the house was the well-equipped kitchen. It had everything we needed to prepare meals for our group, including a high chair and baby-friendly utensils. This made mealtime a breeze, even with the little ones. The location was also ideal, with easy access to the beach and other local attractions. Overall, our experience at this VRBO vacation house was excellent.

Wonderful for families

We had a fabulous time! The house is perfect for larger groups. We loved having the option to split up and stay at pool, or cross street to go to beach. The tiki bar was a great touch- the automatic ice maker being one of our favorite aspects to the house! Check in was easy and the house was ready a few hours early, which was a delightful surprise. Hoping to book again for next summer if there is availability!
