Great stay

We had a great time! The communication with the host was very good and were quick to respond anytime we had a question. The home accommodated our family's needs quite nicely. The A/C worked very well in the very warm temps. I would emphasize the required 4X4 vehicle needed to get this property. I do think some general updating could be done to the entire home but nothing that would hold me back from renting again.

Amazing Views & Perfect Location

We have been coming to OBX for 20 years. Never stayed on the 4x4 beach. We will never stay anywhere else! The property was amazing! Spacious and perfect for 2 families. We had 5 kids total and 4 adults. Love that’s it’s very pet friendly. Clean home and comfortable beds and sofas. Easy walk to the beach for sunrises and sunsets! Communication with the owners was very quick and informative. Really just love This property! The wild horses were an added bonus! We will be back!!

Fun week!

Great, quiet location! Property is just as described, a bit of an adventure getting there and I would highly recommend arriving in the daylight if you’ve never navigated it before, but once we figured it out, it was no problem. The hot tub was amazing, the kitchen was super well stocked, the beach was super convenient, but being one “block” off it added to our privacy and quiet without compromising the view. Property owner and local property managers were amazing and helpful.

Wonderful!

This is house was more then sufficient for our needs. We spend most of the time on the beach, this home is a very short walk to the beach. The kitchen was well equipped and more then spacious enough for all of us!! The home also stood its ground to some pretty strong winds from tropical storm michael!!! We had a blast and cant wait for next year!!

Amazing house, location and view!!

Wow, what an adventure! It started with the fun 4 wheel drive beach ride to the house. The house was beautiful and had plenty of room. We loved the hot tub, hammock and swing chair. The house was very clean upon arrival. The best part was the daily viewing of the wild horses! One day there were 6 horses on the property. One even snuck in the carport! We watched him from inside. Just amazing. One of our best vacations ever! Thank you, Steve, for sharing your home with us.

Beautiful Home in a Great Location

The home is beautiful, well decorated and in a great location. And although it is located one row of houses back from the water, you can still see the ocean waves and sunrise from the upper deck. The horses visited almost daily. And we drove our Jeep around many times to see others. The beach was spectacular! We drove it end to end many times. High tide was a bit sketchy at times, but we did fine considering that check in and check out both occurred at high tide. We spent many evenings enjoying the hot tub and playing cards in the screened porch. It was so quiet and on clear nights, you could see every star in the sky! Thank you to the owners for leaving the pool open longer for us to enjoy. We did have a few minor issues, and the owner was quick to respond. Nothing big enough that couldn’t wait. My only recommendation would be to bring a few garbage bags with you, as none were left and we had to make a special trip to town to get some.

Awesome Time!

What a peaceful and relaxing experience on Carova Beach! Steve's house was absolutely wonderful. We had everything we needed. Loved watching the sunrise from the top deck, and the wild horses were abundant. We could see the horses coming across the road and frequently stopping to graze right in the back yard. We got so many great pics. The hot tub on the second deck was so relaxing, and we enjoyed several afternoons watching the sun set from the hot tub. This was our first time to Carova Beach, and going in October, it felt like we had our own private paradise, as there were no crowds to deal with, and we could simply relax and soak up the atmosphere. Thanks again Steve for opening your home up to us. We had a wonderful week-long anniversary at your house, and can't wait to come back!

FAMILIES: THIS IS YOUR DREAM!

We can’t say enough wonderful things about this property. From the moment we walked in, we knew that we had picked a phenomenal location. Driving on the beach can be a little nerve-racking if you have not done it before, but as long as you deflate your tires, you are good to go. The house was so completely serene, and the wild horses visited us almost every day. The beach was not at all crowded, and easily walkable. The pool was amazing, and the house was extraordinarily clean. The property owners were also completely kind and responsive every time we had an issue. For example, The grill was broken and they responded to me within an hour. We will absolutely be looking to book year over year here. There is even a small business owner who drives up and down the beach every day offering ice delivery! Overall, a phenomenal trip for our family and I can’t think the homeowners and property managers enough. 10/10!

Great Beach Location

First time in the Outer Banks and the location was perfect. A little intimidating driving off road on beach but after the second day it was a piece of cake. 4WD a must or AWD. Check the Tide schedule before coming and going. Layout of house was nice. Three of the BR led out to covered deck and master led put to upper deck and screened in section. Would have preferred chairs on deck outside of master instead of picnic table. Community door to lower deck did not function so you had to walk through one of the BR to access. Could use some nicer sheets for the bedding and pillows. Pool was nice and hot tub was clean. New furniture on upper deck that was very nice. Living room furniture seemed new and very comfortable. Owners were very responsive from booking until checkout. Over all the house was exactly as listed and we were NOT disappointed. Will definitely book again and recommend.

Beware-

I have pictures of what this property looked like when I arrived and it does not look like the pictures posted. I had problems with the landlord Steve from the get-go because I had 9 girls with me. On the 2nd day I received a message telling me that I was evicted because he assumed that we had too many people in the house at one time. Bugs everywhere, snakes, algae covered entire deck, sand on beds, no sheets on any beds upon arrival, no toilet paper or paper towels, one bath towel per person, sand in mini fridge freezer, horse feces everywhere, huge unpassable pond in front of house for the entire stay, constantly accused of wrongdoing and looking for ways to evict us and keep security deposit. Pictures upon arrival do not lie.

What a great property!

The pictures do not do this location justice. The location is perfect if your looking to be away from the rush of everything. as we were. You will need to plan ahead on what you need to bring and ensure you don't overfill your vehicle as it will get stuck easily if it is weighed down. We brought everything we needed for a week and plenty of drinking water (the property is on a well). The Foodlion in Corrolla has tons of water so even if you don't bring enough there is a place to get more. The hot tub and pool were amazing and the beach is a 3 minute walk (only because the sand is deep). We woke every day to horses which my daughter loved. The house is quite large and you'll need to ensure your ready for the stairs especially during the unpacking and packing part of the trip. The view from the third floor is amazing and the the second floor deck is great for napping. There was a closet with plenty of umbrellas and chairs for the beach so you don't need to bring that. The drive from the end of the road to the house depends on time of day. Early to mid day the drive is easy and afternoon to evening it gets pretty busy. Don't be afraid to go around slower moving vehicles as you could end up stuck behind them when they get stuck. For parking on the beach you'll need to pre-order the permits online as they only issue 300 a week (this filled up quickly when we went). I would say this stay and this property are top notch and I and my family enjoyed every moment and plan to go back!

Stay was okay

First I want to say that the house was priced very well and considering what we paid its a situation of you get what you pay for. The owner is was very nice and responded timely as did his handy men. I just felt like the pictures online do not represent what we had when we got there. The pool even though we could not use it (and we knew that) was an eyesore. The house was surface clean but not deep cleaned but thats okay its the beach. The biggest issue is the water temp and pressure. There was only enough hot water for maybe 1 shower a day and if someone was showering you could not run water anywhere else in the house at the same time. We had an issue with the hot tub not working and being very nasty but we worked with Steve and his guys had it up and running for the last 2 1/2 days of our 7 day trip. We took trash out 2 or 3 times a day so as not to encourage ants but no one ever came to actually pick up the trash so it really piled up for the week and was starting to attract critters. I don't want to say it was horrible because it wasn't. We have stayed at way worse places. I think we were just disappointed because on the pictures we had this awesome idea of what it would be like and it wasn't. It is a lovely home and has great potential if it where to be updated/remodeled a little bit. Like I said though Steve and his team were very good and there is nothing negative to say about them or how we were treated :)
