This was more than we were hoping for. Amazing property that makes you feel like you’re almost in the water. Nice and clean interior with an all star front porch. We got away for 2 days for Christmas and it was exactly the relaxing and serene getaway we needed. Literally the only property along the entire beach that is truly ON the beach. Great stay and hope to be back.

Mixed Experience — Stunning View, Tough AccessibilityThe ocean view at this property are absolutely breathtaking. Sitting inside and watching the water stretch endlessly was a real highlight of our trip.That said, our stay came with major challenges. The driveway was completely blocked by 8 foot sand dunes, so we had to park far down the street. Checking in after dark meant dragging our luggage over the dunes and up an unlit stairway, which was extremely difficult. I reached out to the owners about this, but their response was that the listing mentioned sand — though it only referenced sand dunes in relation to beach access, not that the road and driveway would be unusable for vehicles. We have a 4WD Jeep, but it was impossible to drive over the huge dune. If you’re older or have mobility issues, this setup would be nearly impossible and dangerous. Inside, the home is very bare-bones — minimally stocked, no lamps, just overhead lights. During a mild storm, the whole house shook noticeably, which was unsettling.The view is incredible, but guests should be aware of the accessibility issues and sparse setup before booking.

We booked a 7 days in October. We were told the sand dunes in entrance to the cottage were “manageable”. When we pulled up they were about 4.5 feet high between the driveway and the entrance. We had so much difficulty traversing the soft sand! I fell 3 times trying to move my luggage up to the cottage! The owners did not feel it was a problem. We had to get another place to stay at 8pm the night we arrived, and they would not refund our payment. They offered the cottage behind ours, but it had no electricity.

We had an amazing time. The views are gorgeous, we watched sunsets and sunrises, and as the sun sets, billions of stars emerge from darkness, we even caught a sight of a few meteorites from the deck. The house sits a top of sand dunes, it was fascinating to witness the sand movements forming intricate and overtaking dunes.The house is beautiful and the beds are comfortable. The only thing we missed was a tea kettle, we just boiled the water in a cooking pot. I would want to come back and stay here again.

Beautiful Views!!
I loved staying here! The view from inside the house and on the front porch were breathtaking! It almost seemed as if we were on a boat when looking out of the front windows. It was so nice to have the front porch to sit on or under on the beach to stay out of the sun. It was like a huge tent that didn’t have to be put up! I believe that it is the closest house to the ocean South of The Outer Banks Pier. Overall it was a wonderful experience!

Exceptional view, but not worth the hassle.
Won’t be back!!
The view was amazing, but that is where it ended. Upon arriving, we found the hot tub to be unplugged, even though we asked about it the previous day. No worries, things happen. We contacted the host, was very kind… at first! We were told that she would send over a maintenance man over in about an hour. We returned back to the house 4/5 hours later to find the hot tub still not working, no word from the host and upon trying to take a shower, we had no hot water in the whole house.Reaching out again we received no answer, so we had to contact Vrbo. Thankfully they connected us. The host was not very compassionate at this point and we ended up with no hot water for that evening. With check-out being the next morning. I reached out the next morning again and later the next day..we still have not received a response. Not a great ending to our birthday getaway. Very disappointed. This place has amazing potential.. sadly, but would not recommend.

Great little spot!
My husband and I spent the weekend on this property and it was truly the most relaxing weekend we’ve had in a long time. If you want a true beach house, this is the spot. It was a cold and rainy weekend, but watching and listening to the wind and waves from inside was heavenly. The place was clean and nice. The only negative was the unavailability of the outdoor amenities; the fire pit didn’t have a propane tank and the hot tub didn’t have a filter, so we didn’t get to utilize those - but it could also be that we rented in the off-season. Overall, we would DEFINITELY stay again!

Memorial
We went to the OBX to host a memorial for my mother who passed in November 2024 (hosted at a local park). Overall the location of this house is perfect. It’s located in a convenient spot to the entire obx strip and you cannot get closer to the ocean without actually being in the ocean.
What I missed were the essentials that are normally included: dish soap, toilet paper, paper towels, lamps. You had to use only overhead lighting in every room which gets old quickly. We also couldn’t locate the outside light switch (or the bulbs were burnt out). The only light that would work is the one by the front door. When you pull up there’s a huge sand dune, which is expected due to the location, just not really mentioned in the listing. Those with unsteady gaits or other difficulties in ambulation will struggle. The house was super clean which was nice and there were a ton of family activities which would be nice if needed.
It looks like work will be done to the house (warped walls and doors, leaky plumbing, etc) but it’s nothing you wouldn’t expect from a property so close to the ocean.
Overall, we would stay there again if the price were cheaper. $300-$500/night in the current shape and amenity is pretty steep for the value you get, other than the absolutely gorgeous view of the beach.

The location and beach are excellent. House needs repairs and lacking decent kitchen supplies. Current exterior photo on VRBO is old. Driveway not accessible by car...it's covered with sand dune. Too deep for Jeep 4x4...very difficult for walking from 100+ feet away. Had to vacate 2 days early because of Ophelia storm. No returned calls from owners on partial refund. Disappointed.
