This property was very cozy & pet friendly. The kitchen was well stocked. We came in the winter so the bathroom was a little cold during our stay. The beds were very comfy. The host was very responsive & took time to check on us once we settled in. Overall we had a good peaceful stay.
We greatly enjoyed staying at this beach cottage. The cottage renovations are beautiful. The cottage was clean and provided all essentials. We will definitely be returning for another stay at this cottage, it was perfect.

Rob, thank you for the great review! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay in the OBX. You, your wife, and pup were great guests! Come back again soon.
We stayed in the cutest cottage. It was everything we expected and more! The area was so quiet and peaceful. We took several walks in the neighborhood and just fell in love with the area.

Cheryl, thank you for the awesome review! We agree, Colington is charming and cozy and we love Sail Cove. Thanks again for staying with us, we hope to see you soon.
I loved the description of this little house when we reserved but actually finding the back story and seeing the transformation made me love it more!! It was perfect for 2 adults and our dog. The community is very quiet and friendly. I like that it was 10 minutes off the main highway away from the bussyness of OBX. I hope to return next summer! Thank you for sharing your beach home for all to enjoy!!

Thank you for the kind words! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to host you again soon!
We thoroughly enjoyed this home. The host had many items available to us when we arrived like hand soap, dish soap, dishwasher tabs, beach towels linens and towels. There were also snacks, water and coffee. The place was very clean and cool. My only complaint is the water not draining well in the shower but that was manageable. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.

Catherine, thank you for your review! We are so glad you enjoyed the house and your time in the OBX. Since so much sand gets washed down the drain, the tub sometimes gets clogged. Thank you for letting us know. It will be addressed today. Thanks again for choosing Sail Cove!
