We stayed at "Flip Flop" for a family vacation in late April and were pleased with our experience. Prior to our stay, the rental company (Kees Vacations) was efficient and communicated well via email and phone, and the entry code they gave us was correct and timely.The house is 1 block from the beach in Kill Devil Hills, close to the Wright Brothers National Memorial and a few short miles from Jockey's Ridge State Park. The house is large, airy, and clean, with beautiful light. Each of the bedrooms has its own bath, which was very convenient. The small pool table on the lower level was a nice diversion on our one rainy afternoon. The hot tub was clean and in working order. We made use of the gas grill, which was clean but had only one working section. A few minor issues: (1) the dishwasher leaked a bit and we had to keep a towel on the floor while it was running, (2) we had only two kitchen towels for our stay of 4 nights, which, combined with the dishwasher leak, created a minor problem re not having enough clean towels while cooking and cleaning up, (3) though the kitchen was well stocked with cookware, utensils, and dishes, there were absolutely no cooking staples, so if you plan to cook at all, be prepared to bring your own salt, pepper, spices, condiments, cooking spray, etc., (4) there's currently a large vacant lot next door that isn't especially attractive, and (5) parking is limited to two cars (possibly three small cars) for the entire house, which was not a problem for our group, but could potentially be for others with more drivers with large vehicles. Overall, though, this was a great house for our first visit to OBX. We'd definitely rent the place again.
