House is deceivingly big on the inside! Lots of room for everyone to come together or stay apart. Was a bit of a walk to/from the beach. The house is located between 2 public accesses. Was a good house overall though.

Disrepair
This home needs a remodel. There are old dirty sofas just put in hallways and the master instead of the dump. The master closet was full of broken stuff. The housr was dirty and needs painting.The living room chairs were so broken down they were unusable. I had to clean toilets and pool area mysrlf. The grill and outdoor shower area are were covered in green mildee. Trash was left in carport grom previous renters a it smelled terribe. The house cutter is also disconnected and under the car port. I would not rent this house again and was embarrassed that i rented for the week for my family.

Family beach week
The house was perfect for me and my grown children and their families. Plenty of space to spread out as well as gather together. The pool table was a hit. The proximity of the pool and hot tub was also good for small groups to spend time. Beach access is easy with no stairs at either of the 2 very close access points.
We've vacationed in the Nags Head area for the past 30 years. As my 5 children have grown to adulthood and started families, our house requirements have changed. This was the first year that I didn't rent from the same local real estate company due to availability. I'm glad I found this house on VRBO, and will check again next year.

Big house in a quiet area
Plenty of bedrooms and open space. Kitchen is stocked with plenty of dishes and cookware. The furniture is very comfortable, and there were several good sized TVs. The decks are all disconnected, amd the pool is on the smaller side, but still big enough for several people to have a good time. Access to the beach was close, and the location was nice and quiet.

Great property
Our extended family of 16 found the property to be enjoyable. The privacy, beautiful view, and easy walk to the beach were additional pluses. The back decks and pool area were very private. The preserve aspect in the back gave us a unique experience to view coastal vegetation and wildlife.
