The space was clean and functional. I enjoyed having the toaster oven, the mini fridge, and the microwave. I'm grateful for the coffee. The ceiling fan worked so well that I turned off the window unit and was still quite cool. I would stay again.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Lost Colony in the OBX! The home was spotless, comfortable, and in a great location—close to everything while still feeling peaceful and relaxing.One of the standout features was the beautiful artwork throughout the home from local artists—you could actually buy it, which was such a unique and thoughtful touch that made the stay feel even more special.Everything was well-designed and thoughtfully stocked, making it feel easy and welcoming from the moment we arrived. The hosts were super communicative. We would 100% stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the OBX!

Nice stay at Nags Head

Beautiful property with a perfect little apartment for a vrbo rental. Hosts were friendly, but not at all overbearing. Generally awesome, very close to the beach.

Nice little spot in Nags Head

Had a nice stay here. Process was easy from start to finish. Nice to have full-sized washer and dryer, a junior frig and a keurig. For us and the places we frequent in the OBX….Tortuga’s, Waveriders, Stack ‘em high and a short drive to public beach access…location was great.

If you enjoy visiting the beach from a local perspective, this VRBO is perfect! The super cozy, artfully decorated living space is located on the first floor of the owners home and ideal for 1 or 2 people. Beach chairs, umbrella, bikes, frig, microwave, utility sink, keurig, dishes/utensils, comfy bed, washer/dryer, outside sitting area, private entrance and middle of beach location are perfect! Check-in / check-out is easy and owners are friendly, helpful and quiet.

We had a great time! The place was emaculant inside! The bed was comfortable, loved the decor very bohemian and artsy! Everything you need is available bikes, chairs, outside shower, kitchen fully stocked with essentials. Our host and hostess were great at helping and answering questions. We would definitely come back.again!

Quick Escape

What a great place to go for a quick escape! This place was perfect for me. The rental was so adorable, so much charm. I was on a solo trip but even if I had my partner with me the space would have been plenty. It was quiet, beautiful and perfectly located. I enjoyed the homeowners suggestions for places to explore and good eats! I’ll be back!

Lisa and Cyrus are exceptional hosts. We appreciated the spacious, clean and inviting quarters. All the little conveniences were thought of and provided. The location exceeded expectations as well - it's a quiet neighborhood and the beach is easily accessible, especially using the bicycles provided by the hosts. We biked everywhere, including along the coast and to Jockey Ridge State Park. Cyrus was very welcoming and gracious in all our conversations.

Most comfortable bed ever!

Lisa and Cyrus were excellent hosts! They communicated well in advance and let us know what to expect. They accommodated our late arrival. The property was as advertised...better, in fact. We arrived after a very difficult drive. Lisa said, "It's a very comfortable bed." She was right! The bed is extremely comfortable. The apartment is small, but there is plenty of room for two people. The bathroom is a full-size bath with a curved shower rod (excellent choice!) and a shower head that my husband really appreciated. :Lisa and Cyrus have done an excellent job of utilizing the space they have, and it is tastefully, fashionably, and comfortably decorated. They have provided well for the needs of their guests - and have done so very practically but tastefully. One of the things I look for is the availability of towel hangers. Lisa and Cyrus have plenty, and they are placed where most needed. There is an outside seating area with bicycles available for guest use. The property is centrally located in OBX - almost equidistant between Corolla and Hatteras. We would definitely stay here again.

This was the perfect spot for a low-key stay. So close to restaurants, shopping and the beach. Outdoor shower was my favorite and the place was very clean. Bed was super comfy and soft. Highly Recommend!!!
