Great vacation

The house was beautiful and nicer than the pictures, It is very spacious and nicely decorated. It is a very short walk to the ocean. The ocean view from the third floor deck was amazing. The elevator and second refrigerator were a plus. The kitchen was fully stocked with untensils and cookware. Lisa always responded fast to anything I asked and during our stay informed us of activities in the area. We had a great stay!!

Great views and location

We had a rough start because one of the air conditioning units was broken. We slept the first night without it but the unit was replaced the next day. The house is great and it is close to the beach. The only negative with the beach is that you have to climb a sand dune to get to it. My 70 year old parents had a tough time with that. Other wise it is pretty close to perfect!

Lovely home!

This home is really very nice. We really appreciate the large kitchen island. It has had several upgrades since the last time we were here. New furniture in both living spaces, new LVP flooring, new carpet and most of the outdoor deck and railing have been replaced. They are all beautiful. The host was very responsive when we reached out. There was an AC issue in the lower levels that was fixed the next day. It was reported or a Sun, so very understandable that it was fixed on Mon. We have rented here before. The only downside for us, traveling with mid-60’s parents and a 7 month old, was the size of the dune they now have at the end of the street. The beach access was not as easy as it used to be. It was difficult, at best, to get onto the beach. With the storm damage they had in this area, I totally understand the need for the dunes. Just mentioning for anyone else that may have been here before and expect the easy beach access they used to have.

Great Week

Property has perfect location to access the beach, shopping and restaurants - all which had great seafood. The house was the perfect size for 12 people, we never felt crowded. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed for cooking, but the grill outside could have been bigger. The only bad thing was mattresses in bunkbed room were not very comfortable, but all other beds were great. The hammock on deck was comfortable for sleeping.

Great family beach spot

This property is only a row back from the beach with its own private heated pool. Perfect for kids who want to go back and forth from the beach and little ones who cant stay in the sun too long. The house came with a high chair and packnplay which made packing much easier. Each bedroom had its own bathroom with plenty of towels. Hair dryers were included too. A fridge in the bottom and top floor. Elevator made it so easy to unpack groceries and luggage too! 20 minute drive to avon or nags head. The beach wasnt crowded and felt like we had plenty of space between us and other people. There were a few pool floats, boogie boards, beach chairs, sand toys....this house had everything. Beautiful views of the ocean too. Highly recommend and would stay here again for sure!

Wonderful Experience

My family and friends had a wonderful time. The property itself is spacious, nice and clean. Literally 2 houses away from the beach and having a pool on-site is nice to have. I didn’t see the elevator info when in booked this home, and was surprised to have it when we got there. Definitely nice to have for us to transport food things to the 2nd and 3rd floor of the house. I only needed to contact Lisa a few times with simple questions and she is easy to get a hold of and respond to emails. I’ve already recommended this property my friends and family. Will definitely coming back next year!
