Nice stay but a few surprises
The house was nice and large enough for us all to be comfortable. Overall we enjoyed our stay but VRBO did not show on their listing that the heated pool was an extra feature that would cost us additional money ($500). We also did not realize that we would have to provide essential items like toilet paper, soap, towels (if you want more than 1 towel) etc. we found this all out from the property management company (different company) after we arrived so we had to buy more items we weren’t expecting. We also had spotty wi-fi, there are no screens in the windows so if you open one all the bugs come in, and the lawn care service came at 7am to cut the grass one morning waking everyone up. That aside, our biggest issue is that we felt that VRBO did not fully inform us of what was/wasn’t included in the rental and since this was our first time to OBX we did not know what to expect.

A Visit to Checkmate
The house is beautifully decorated yet warm and comfortable for a family vacation. It is convenient to beach with outdoor shower which helps keep house and pool clean. Having a pool and hot tub provided a variety of entertainment for the kids and adults alike. We had a great time.

Best vacation location so far!
We had an amazing stay at this location the 4th of July week. The property is perfectly located about 200 yards from the beach. Also a short drive to Duck, NC which is such a cute town with plenty to do. We stayed with three families (with kids), and still had an extra room! In fact, all adults had a king size bed and their own bathroom. The private pool made it PERFECT for small families. I find it difficult to spend more than 3-4 hours at a time with young kids at the beach, so having the pool for mornings or late afternoons was amazing. We'd stay there again in a heartbeat. The only negative, especially for people taking flights, is the towels, toilet paper, and essentials were a bit limited. I think they can go a bit further than a courtesy role of two of paper towels and toilet paper. Also, adding some beach towels to the closet would be appreciated. Thankfully, we were able to rent beach chairs and towels, so we figured it out. Thanks for a great trip with many memories!
