The rental was clean but it was a bit outdated. Sheets and towels were provided. It was fine for a group of guys duck hunting for the weekend. The layout was a bit strange and would be difficult for a family. It was "guy" friendly.

Great location made for close access to Oregon Inlet for fishing. Close to several restaurants for dining. Spent both evenings on the back deck. Kitchen is equipped with everything you need. Cottage is located just off the beach Road for easy access to everything it allows for privacy.

Great location. Close to everything. We didn’t cook while there, but it looked like they had every pot and pan you could need. Indoor temp is controlled by owner remotely. He responds very quickly to a text request to change the temp. Simple enough. Great value, too. Can’t find these rates anywhere nearby. Hosts are friendly and respond quickly to any questions.

This is the third year in a row that we have stayed here. Lots of space for everyone to spread out and three showers to choose from when you come in from the beach. The house is at the end of the road so it is very private. It’s a quick walk to the beach and it was never too crowded at our access point. There are piers 1 mile to the north and south. The location is close to everything but still manages to feel remote.

Awesome Location

Finding a quiet rental on Bodie Island that's still close to the restaurants and activities in Nags Head and KDH can be a real challenge, but this property threads the needle! Space is perfectly suited for a family of 3-5, and the well stocked kitchen was particularly appreciated. Back deck is nice and private feeling which is tough to manage in this area. Hope to stay here again on a future trip!

Feels like a home. It is outdated as others have said but i actually love that. We had 5 adults and 3 children. Everyone had plenty of space. Short walk to beach. Back porch is pretty secluded. The wildlife reserve behind the home keeps it private.this was our second stay. Would stay again

House is older, has a lot of potential. Furniture needs to be moved when staff comes in to clean, I had to move the recliner to get something I dropped and under it to as obvious it had not been vacuumed in some time. Washing machine tray was hideous and would not work, I had to clean it just so I could clean my clothing, Temperature was difficult to navigate as the owners were out of area and had control over it so it was too hot or too cold, This time of year is hard since we go through all seasons in one day. While I was there a pear company came and entered the home without my knowledge, only reason I knew is because he was there ready to leave when I pulled in and I asked who it was and he told us and said he was inside to just be careful around the perimeter as he just sprayed inside. A heads up on that would have been nice so I could have at least secured my things or even had arranged to stay. Garbage was an issue there were clear directions and it appeared they were not held up to by previous renter, there was a full bin outside. Due to high winds we woke up one day to that bin knocked over an spread all over the place. I had to take the time to pick it up from the grounds, which was gross. I enjoyed the area but maybe this time of year wasn’t the best plan of action.
