About this property

Sandy Adventures! Third row from the ocean! Wild Horses roam the area- Carova

Close proximity to the beach means less traveling and more fun in the sun

Great set up for families- Master bedroom is East facing so you can enjoy the sunrise in the king size bed.

Third bedroom has 2 twin bunkbeds great for families

If you’re lucky you will see the wild Banker horses roaming around during your stay!

No need to carry all the kids toys to the beach as you can throw them in your 4x4 vehicle and park on the beach!

The house has an upper level deck (seating for 6 outside on the deck) and a smaller lower level deck

Carova is a 4x4 only beach- which is part of the adventure! There are no paved roads in carova. You need a 4 wheel drive to get to this property.

If you're looking for a perfect vacation this is your place! Everything was listed/shown as is at the VRBO and the beach was just a short walk (or drive) away. Loved the 4x4 experience and the wild horses were as awesome to see in real life as we had hoped. Would definitely stay again!

Relaxing Stay

Nice location close to the beach access. Home was relatively new and had just about everything we needed for our 4 night stay. Saw plenty of horses and everyone enjoyed the adventure of driving on the beach. Hope to stay here again in the summer season.

Absolutely beautiful oasis just off the beach. This was our first time at Corova Beach and we had a blast driving on the beach and looking for horses . We saw several horses when the weather was nice and spent the rainy days driving on the beach. The house is in a great location and the deck is nice and private. Tho host was great to deal with and very responsive. We can’t wait to go back!

Great Beach house.

Brand new house, really close to the beach. It was crazy hot when we were there and the AC kept the place perfectly comfortable. It will be on our shortlist to check for availability the next time we head to the Outer Banks

We had an amazing time at your Outer banks home. We will definitely stay again. Would love if a broom and dust pan was left out to clean during our stay was the only thing. Thank you so much! It met expectations beautiful area!!

Great little house!

This house was everything we hoped it would be! We traveled with another couple and our kids. The bunk room was perfect for the kids and we enjoyed the 2 king bedrooms for the two couples. Plenty of room and very clean! Easy walk to the beach and a pass provided so we could park for the day on the beach! Owner was great at answering any questions I had and overall we had a great experience. Will be staying here again!

Making Memories

This house's location was perfect! We saw horses everday and with just a quick hop into our truck we would arrive on the beach to enjoy all the beauty carova had to offer. The house had everything we could have possibly needed. The host was helpful and would respond quickly. We hope to book again next year!

Great time

Great property! It was a little dirty when we got in and some of the dishes still had food on them. We noticed three cameras on the outside of the house that we did not know about before arriving, so that made us feel we didn’t have privacy outside the house. Overall great location and house. We had a blast!

Overall we enjoyed our stay. It was cut short due to the emergency mandatory evacuation. We got there on Monday night. Had a great day Tuesday and then had to be out Wednesday morning by 9am. This was a beautiful house and worked well for my family. (Myself, husband, 2 year old daughter, and 80 year old grandfather). Only thing I wouldve changed is the steps or having a gate at the top just because of my daughter. We did get to see a wild horse in our yard one evening.
