Nice Place

Have stayed in several places in Carova, this is one of our favorites. The house was very clean and had ample space and amenities. Communication from the owner was great. Plenty of privacy and is on the south side of Carova, so it's closer to the 4x4 access. Would stay here again.

This VRBO stay is a must! The house is amazing. It was clean and offered all the comforts of home - the hosts did not miss a detail. The house is exactly as described in the listing, if not better. Excellent communication with hosts as well. We also appreciated the extra details that made our 4-legged family member feel just as welcome.This was our first time experiencing the 4x4 beach with wild horses, and it did not disappoint. You will see the horse roaming freely throughout the area and on the beach. We watched 4 to 5 horses graze peacefully almost every morning from the back deck. We really enjoyed driving out to the beach and setting up for the day. With the house within walking distance, we could walk back and forth as needed. It rained on two afternoons, but with the amazing, expansive deck and screened porches, we were able to enjoy the outside and feel the cool ocean breeze. AMAZING. We ventured into town on one of the days, which offers cute shops and good restaurants. History buffs will love the museums Corolla has to offer. We even climbed to the top of the lighthouse, which offered breathtaking views of the entire area. As the hosts state, you must have a 4-wheel drive vehicle to navigate the sand. This was not a problem for us, but we did see several vehicles being towed out of the sand. The road literally ends, dumping you right onto the beach. It was so much fun. We'd definitely book this house again!

Beautiful and Peaceful Property

We loved our stay here. The home was beautiful, well maintained, and very clean. Check in/out was easy. The surrounding property is lush and private. Very family and dog friendly. 4x4 is of course a must, as it’s a hike from the pavement down the beach. Grocery/food options are nonexistent nearby but the seclusion is what makes this area special.

Perfect beach getaway

We loved our stay at the property! Everything was extremely clean and this was a well-stocked home with excellent amenities and everything you need for a small or large group. It was a cooler time of year, but we still enjoyed beach walks and drives around where we would see the horses. The owners provided clear instructions and their info on airing down for beach access was essential!

We had a great stay at Shore Relaxing! The house was clean and just as described. Plenty of space for our family. It had all the necessary amenities and was comfortable. It was just a short walk to the beach but we often drove to transport coolers, chairs, etc. We loved seeing the horses right in our driveway! We would absolutely stay here again!!

The beds were comfortable and linens and towels great condition. Two coffee pot options a plus and beach access easy yet secluded. Great stay! Would definitely recommend to others.
