Great location with an ocean view from the front of the house. The walk to the beach access took less than a minute and we were pleasantly surprised by that. The house was great and we hope to stay again.

So glad you enjoyed our home and it’s close proximity to the beach access. You all were awesome guests and we hope to have you back soon too!
We have been going to OBX annually for 40 years. This was by far the best placeWe have ever stayed. The kitchen was fully stocked, check in was a breeze, and the walk to the beach was easy. Having bathroom at the public beach access was a plus. We are planning to rent again next year and hope to for years to come.
It was convenient to the beach and had great indoor and outdoor spaces. The pool and hot tub were a nice plus when the ocean was rough for our littles. Very well stocked kitchen for any cooking needs.

Fantastic visit with our family at the beach. The house was wonderful, just a short walk to the beach access. Also conveniently located a short drive to the Dunes and Wright Brothers Museum. Doesn’t get any better than this!!

So glad you and your family had a wonderful time together at Destination-OBX Beach House and enjoyed being right across the street from the beach. We hope to welcome you back again next year!
We’ve been starting in OBX for several years now and this was the best stay yet! The house was everything that was described and the contact with Barbara, the owner, was quick and painless, unlike difficulties we’ve had trying to have issues resolved with a number of realty offices. The one minor issue that cropped up was resolved by Barbara in a matter of 1 quick call and she was extremely willing to make things right. Would absolutely stay here again!!
Destination OBX definitely exceeded our expectations. Plenty of room for our entire family. Spacious rooms, wonderful living space and dinner space for us to eat together. Beautiful sunrises from the outdoor areas, couldn’t ask for better. Barbara was a gracious host and we look forward to making memories there again! Thank you Barbara!

Megan, Thanks for your glowing review! I can say the same about you and your family. You took such great care of our home. You are now a part of the Destination-OBX Family and you are welcome back any time! Come again soon!
This house was perfect for our large family to gather and celebrate my daughter’s first birthday. The top floor is very spacious with plenty of seating options for family meals and games. The weather was not great while we were in OBX, but the pool was perfect for the pockets of sunshine we did have. The beach is just across the street and numerous grocery stores within a 5 min drive to pick up supplies. Barbara communicated frequently leading up to and during our stay and promptly resolved any issues (all minor). Overall had a great stay and highly recommend the house.

Thanks for picking Destination-OBX Beach House for your family’s vacation needs! We hope to have you all back again soon! -Barbara
Stayed at destination OBX following my son's college graduation. House is well located-diagonally across from the beach entrance and a short drive to two piers and grocery and drug store. House had everything we needed. We had a crowd of college age guys so ended up cooking most of our meals. Two full size fridges and newly renovated kitchen was helpful to have. Bedrooms were comfortable and it was nice to be able to give everyone their own bedroom and at least a semi-private bath. Pool was pristine and the guys got a lot of used the hot tub daily. Mother nature was not cooperative so we had a lot of cool, windy weather. Hot tub and game room were nice to have given that swimming was not an option. I would recommend this rental to any family or group of friends who are looking for a relaxing place to enjoy the outer banks. The owner, Barbara contacted me half way through our week to make sure we had everything we needed. I appreciated the extra attention, and I'm sure if we needed anything she would have made every effort to make it happen.

Kimberly, thanks for such a detailed and excellent review. I’m so glad you were able to spend time together with your son and friends over Mother’s Day! We hope to host you again in the future! Take care, Barbara
We couldn't have picked a better property for our family vacation! The house is beautiful! Lots of room! Just a minute walk across the street to the beach. Lots of beach accessories/chairs so you don't have to pack your own. Such a wonderful vacation! Would absolutely book again!
Clean, close to beach. Very accommodating for large family .Pool used every day. Beautifully decorated, not overdone. Prior renters had not cleaned gas grill. (each renter should clean their own mess). Barbara was very nice to work with. Kitchen had everything we needed, even for our large shrimp feed. Appreciated the use of the home for the week. Will definitely be back.

The house was perfect for my entire family! The game room kept everyone entertained and the pool was perfect for afternoon swimming and playing. There was plenty of room for everyone and the house was nicely appointed and decorated well. Barbara was great and super responsive.

About the host
Hosted by Barbara
In 2020, we chose to find the positives and embark on an adventure we had always hoped to embrace. We have been blessed with a large family (4 kids) and my mother living with us for the last 15 years of her life. When Nana passed away at the wonderful age of 95, we wanted to have a special place to continue to gather as an extended family. Barbara "loves a project" so we purchased this home in late 2020. We set out to make it more than just a beach house rental, but a family vacation experience, a special place to gather with loved ones to make memories. This house is Nana's legacy to us and we hope it will be the back drop to a fantastic experience for your OBX vacations for years to come!
Why they chose this property
Location, Location, Location! When staying at Destination OBX your spot on the beach is located almost equal distance between 2 piers, so your biggest decision may just be: which pier do I walk to today? There is tremendous value in a semi-oceanfront location. You can still hear and see the ocean with out paying oceanfront prices. You are less than a mile away from the outlet mall, grocery stores, excellent restaurants, while still being just outside the hustle and bustle.
What makes this property unique
Ocean view from the top deck. We love the huge open layout upstairs where all can gather together. There is enough table seating that everyone can eat at the same time too. Super close beach access with lifeguards, and bathrooms with running water. Close enough to walk/bike to Sam and Omie's for breakfast and Fish Head's Bar & Grill for dinner.
