Excellent location!!! One block to beach access and a great store at the corner to grab any snacks, liquor, beach items needed. Great amount of space for 7 of us. Large table for games and meals. Enough couches for all. Working kitchen with adequate dishes/cookware. Outdoor shower was awesome. Cute decor. Ceiling fans and AC were great keeping us cool during a heat advisory. A-frame style was beautiful, open, and spacious. Loved what the owners had done.
Complaints/issues are with the property management/rental agency. A big downside was poor cleaning. There was pet hair all over the bedroom floor; all over one bed and between the bed sheets of what management assured me was fresh, cleanly made-up bed; next to, behind, and under side tables and couches in the living room; and inside the washing machine!
Check-in was a pain. We had to drive 20 minutes (traffic is slow in the summer on OBX) past the property to the rental agency to receive a piece of paper with our keyless code on it. Email, phone, or text would have worked better.
Attempts to “contact the host” via email through VRBO were unsuccessful. Once I had booked, they stopped responding to questions.
The rental agency called multiple times to ask permission to process card on file for final balance, threatening to cancel reservation. Each time, I approved it but they didn’t charge it. It took three phone calls before it was finalized.
