Shawn was wonderful to work with. He was able to accommodate us for a last minute night when flooding prevented us from getting to our original rental. Wonderful host and beautiful property.
Great location, loved the pool and the house! The only thing that would have improved the stay, is better quality pillows.

We had an incredible stay at this rental! The house was exactly as described in the listing, and the location was perfectly convenient for everything we wanted to do. We had a wonderful time, and the hosts were absolutely fantastic—they were so welcoming and always accessible whenever we had a question. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend this home to anyone visiting the area.
"Footprints in the Sand" was everything we hoped it would be and more. Shawn was communicative and accommodating throughout the process and the house was exactly as advertised. Highly recommend this property and hope to be back in the future!
Very helpful and responsive host. Perfect accommodations for our family. Clean. Great beach chairs. Steps from the beach.

Thank you so very much for the wonderful review. We are so happy you had great vacation. Please come again....we would love to host you!
We were thrilled with our stay from our first step inside. Each of the five bedrooms are spacious with their own en-suite. The beds are very comfortable. This was the perfect place for four couples to stay, relax and celebrate one of our birthday. Would stay there again!

This house has become one of our favorite beach properties - the location to the beach (literally right across the street), quality of furnishings, and fun amenities (putt putt, hot tub, and pool) all made this house a winner! House was extremely clean, plenty of towels, well stocked kitchen and fabulous ocean views. We LOVED it!

Thank you for the 5 star review! We are so happy you found our home clean and well maintained. Cleanliness is of utmost importance to us! Thank you for trusting us with your vacation and please come and stay again soon!

Everything about this home, from the owner’s flexibility and responsiveness, to the layout and amenities, was exceptional. Our kids (ages 15, 13, and 8) loved the putting green, pool, hot tub combo. Apart from each bedroom having an en suite, there were little convenient touches like charging stations for phones and devices. The location allowed us to walk to several of our favorite Kitty Hawk restaurants, which was a delightful bonus. We had a great experience and would highly recommend this property to other families.

This was a great house for our group of friends, it was spacious giving us all our own space if we wanted. Across the street from the beach with great views from the front deck. The back yard was amazing!! We all had fun on the putting grren. Unfortuneatley, the weather did not cooperate so pool and hot tub time was limited
Definitely would reccommend this home!!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I am so happy you were able to enjoy our home. Come and stay with us again and hopefully the weather will be better! I am so happy you enjoyed the backyard...it is our favorite place to hang out! Thank you again!

What an amazing house! Stocked with everything you need to make your vacation that much more enjoyable…beach chairs and umbrellas, toys, golf, pool, and a stocked kitchen. Super close to the beach and an easy walk to and from. Owners respond quickly and politely answered all of our upfront questions. We will absolutely stay here again!
A great house with everything you need to be comfortable, a great location and a very responsive host! The pool, with pool toys, putting green, and hot tub were a hit with our grandkids..a nice backyard to hangout in when not at the beach! Speaking of the beach, a quick walk gets you to ocean front. Quality beach chairs, umbrellas, beach toys, beach towels and a beach cart to haul it all are provided. You can also see the ocean from the front decks, watching the dolphins was a highlight! I highly recommend this lovely beach house! 10/10
