About the host

Host profile image
We have been vacationing on the Outer Banks since we were teenagers. Lifelong residents of Virginia Beach, VA, It has always been our lifelong dream to own our own home on the Outer Banks. That dream became a reality in December of 2014. We decided to share our home with our guests for a few weeks during the summer. Since that time, we have added two additional vacation homes to our rental properties and this great property has been lovingly updated from inside out. All of our home has been updated, renovated, and cleaned to have it pristine and sparkling and ready for our guests. Our guests enjoy our home as much as we do as you can see from our reviews from previous vacationers.
*Owners wife is Licensed Real Estate Broker in Virginia and North Carolina.
