A lovely stay

We have been coming for many, many years and this stay might be one of my favorites yet! A lovely home away from home with every detail through through. Enough room to spread out and yet enjoy family time together. We will definitively be back! Thank you - Helena

Ocracoke Getaway

Overall this was a great little spot! It provided exactly what we needed while we were in the cottage. We woke every morning (except the last) and made breakfast. Took off for fishing at the point during the day. Then came home and showered and relaxed until dinner time. We went out to eat and then came back to talk about the fun times. We even got to know our neighbors a bit and enjoyed a lovely night at the fire pit with them! Overall it was very enjoyable. Not to mention waking up to the sight if Ocracoke lighthouse in the morning, beautiful!

Perfect combination of original Ocracoke and modern style

This cottage is by far the nicest we have ever rented on Ocracoke in the past 30 years. It was perfectly comfortable for 6 of us. We loved the screened porch, outdoor shower, cozy bedrooms & fun vintage lamps, plates and cups & decor. Perfectly designed and perfectly clean! We would love to stay here again.

Lovely Time

My wife, I and our daughter’s family had a lovely time in this very well laid-out house with plenty of room and good privacy for all. Everything worked well, and the owners extended themselves to make it a great experience. The location, with plenty of greenery and the lighthouse close by, make this house hard to beat!

Beautifully Updated 1940’s cottage-All modern appointments without loosing the historical charm

Wonderful experience at this beautiful Home. We spent hours in the huge enclosed porch which has a filtered view of the water. In the morning from the cozy breakfast nook one has an unobstructed view of the Lighthouse 200yards away. The Kitchen is appointed with everything thing you need to make a gourmet meal. The bedrooms and bathrooms are nicely sized and completely renovated. We loved being tucked back in the residential area -away from the shops but only a quick golf cart trip away. A perfect long weekend family reunion in March !!

Fantastic Experience!

Beautiful restoration of a 1940's home. Located just behind the lighthouse on a very private road, this home is an awesome getaway! All amenities were as stated and the home was very clean. A lot of thought went in to recreating the 1940's decor. The host was prompt in communicating and check in was a breeze. An overall awesome experience!
