Fabulous, beautifully decorated accommodations can be yours to experience at MacMurren!

There is a large 12'x30' private pool for your enjoyment and sun decks to catch some rays or take in the ocean views.
The four beautifully painted bedrooms offer two king beds, two double beds, and two singles when you are ready to rest from the day's exertions. After a break, head out to the furnished sundecks to soak in some extra sun, or grab a snack from the small poolside kitchenette before you jump back in! Perhaps catch some viewing or listening entertainment on one of six TVs, three VCRs, three DVD players or two stereo/CD players. A delicious dinner can be prepared in the spacious, tiled kitchen and two available refrigerators will ensure you can properly store any edible treats.
If beautiful accommodations with a tropical feel and an oceanfront setting sound good to you, be sure to come stay at MacMurren on your next Outer Banks vacation!

Overall, great location but appliances were really worn out, dated and dryer was inefficient. The tvs had no working remotes and dvd would not load.We loved the pool and access to beach and will definitely rent again

Family vacation
Very nice house! Everything was clean and put together well. All kitchen utensils provided. Had a fuse blow but text vacasa and we were able to fix it right away after was told where breaker box was. Awesome inground pool! Basically had our own private beach. Only recommendation is a big umbrella for some shade by pool. This was our first family vacation since our kids were 19, now 34. Also had our 23 month old granddaughter who absolutely loved the beach and pool. .

How was amazing and had all the space amenities our family and three kids could ask for. Plenty of kitchen supplies to cook meals. Beach access was perfect and the view from the balcony was amazing for morning coffee. We loved the library and enjoyed looking at the many photo albums of the house throughout the years. Would definitely stay again

Relaxing time. Beautiful beach and home. We enjoyed cooking, watching tv, walking on the beach and just generally hanging out. Watch out for the prickly along the grass!

Waves - mcmadden cottage
This property is amazing. It is right on the beach ocean side. It is really almost a private beach this time of year.
One negative is sand spurs. They stick in the bottom of shoes and cling to clothes and towels. All in the carpet! Cannot walk around barefoot inside.
We loved the view! The vertical configuration allows one to see over the dunes to the water and waves. The deck is a great viewpoint for amazing sunrises.
Of course, that means four flights of stairs. It was hard for me due to inflammation in my knees and back. I'm 65 and in good shape. Many older people could not make it up tge stairs with luggage or groceries. It really should not be rented to anyone with mobility issues. Stairs and beach access over a large dune would create access issues. Younger adults and families with children would be perfect.
The hottub was leaking and the pool was covered for the season so that was sad. The kitchen was well equipped and we used it daily. We bought fresh fish and crabmeat just down the beach.We enjoyed a fire on the beach and chased large crabs with dip nets. The shells were large and intact on our beach. Birds were everywhere. We flew kites and walked for a long distance. It was a lovely time spent together.

Awesome family vacation home!
We're a family of five, with all of our children between 7-11, and this house was perfect for us. The pool, hot tub, and pool table all got use during our week long stay. The walk to the beach was easy for us as well, overall very good experience. The only issue we had upon check-in was unswept floors. We spent the first 40 minutes cleaning when we got there, so I reached out to Vacasa about the issue. They offered to send a cleaner, but by that time we were already completed with the task so I recommended a refund of our cleaning fee, to which they obliged! Very pleased with how they handled the situation, so much so that we booked a new house for next year through them already! Definitely recommend the house, and Vacasa from our experience!

Easter week
The house was beautiful as well as the location. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. On our travels down (we live in DE) I received a call stating that the housecleaners were running behind but rest assured our house would be ready by 6. We arrived around 6:15 and started to unpack.. Around 6:30 the cleaner arrived to clean the house! She apologized numerous times and appeared to be working alone. She stated she had started her cleaning day @ 4 a.m. We told her the house appeared to be ok and to go home, relax and hopefully would be able to enjoy her holiday. We requested and received clean sheets and the only real thing to clean was the living room rug. Before we left we cleaned the entire house so she didn't have as much to do. Also, a TV in the upstairs bedroom would be an added touch.
