Great stay in OBX

Great property location a little out of the crowds but still easy access to all the restaurants and activities. Well stocked kitchen and very large tv for family movies. Very prompt response and easily accommodated a need with an infant and two year old. Would book again.

Beach House Getaway

Great house far enough away from all the craziness! Great location! Walking distance to Fishheads which was awesome! Zach was awesome dealing with when we had a small issue at check in and responded so quickly and made everything right! We had a great time and it was just right for the four of us for my birthday weekend getaway!

Great time

The property manager did a great job replying to questions and the house was great! If I had to search for a complaint, it would be the stairs to the laundry in the basement are super steep for older people. We just used the outside stairs and it was fine. The house is very nice and close to the beach. We would definitely stay again.

Family Surf trip

This was our first trip to the outer banks so choosing a location was a shot in the dark. We really had to rely on post description to pick a house to rent. The description of the house was spot on and be beach was even closer than expected! The house is prefect for a small family. Location was like it says; close to everything but far from the hustle and bustle. The sunsets from the kitchen window are noteworthy. The host responded quickly and handled any issues promptly.

Nice OBX rental

Nice stay in OBX, the kitchen was nicely stocked. I missed that we needed our own bath towels and sheets but there were extras for us to use, which we appreciated. Plenty of beach chairs and toys too.

Nice Location

Nice location but there is no ocean view. House had a moldy smell that was coming from the garage area. The living room furniture needed cleaned and I had to remove the shower curtain because it was dirty. We cleaned it a little and had a great time.

Very impressed with host (Zac) and the property! We have stayed in his properties the past 4 years now. He has always been very responsive and super helpful. The property is stocked well with all the items we need and overall is a perfect setup for us. Highly recommend the property and renting from Zac. Thanks again for a great week!

Great location and host

The hosts have done some great upgrades to the home and it was awesome having an additional fridge downstairs along with a ping pong table and extra beach chairs. The outdoor shower was really helpful and we loved that the kitchen has labels so you can easily find and put everything away. We cooked almost every meal there and we found it easy to cook with everything supplied. Whatever cleaning company is used didn't do a great job and we came into the home with dirty dishes in the dishwasher and some other obvious neglected things but it didn't impact our stay. The owners/hosts were very responsive and kind when we reached out. We ended up only using two of the three bedrooms because the room with the carpeting was making our kids have coughing fits and asthma flare-ups. It could use a deep clean and some furnishing upgrades for those with allergy sensitivities but it's a great little beach house and location which is hard to find for those not going in big groups. If you have allergies or asthma (as we do) it will be triggering.

Perfect location

The house was perfect! It is exactly as described. The house was very clean and welcoming. It was the perfect size for the 4 of us. We could spread out and relax. Super easy access to the beach and quiet area. I reached out to Zac once for something when we first arrived & he immediately responded. We definitely plan to stay here again in the future.
