The house is very clean and cozy. The kitchen is well equipped and had everything we needed for our stay. We used and enjoyed the outside space quite a bit as well as the kayaks. The only negative was that none was of the bedrooms have closets and the rooms are very small. With 6 adults, we probably would not have been comfortable staying more than a few days. Overall, it was a great experience and we all really enjoyed our stay.

Annual Labor Day getaway

Great spot on the canal, quiet neighborhood that was perfect for walking the dog and playing with the kids. No traffic besides local residents that were super friendly. Proximity to our favorite spots on the island was great. Will definitely stay here again.

First time in Frisco

Although we have rented on Hatteras for many years, this was our first stay in this house and in this area. We enjoyed the peaceful streets for bike rides. We loved being right on the canal to watch the birds and fish. The house was very clean, and the kitchen contained everything we needed for the many meals we cooked. The house is a very nice size.

Great location. We had a wonderful long weekend!

I wish I had known that the downstairs suite was a lockout without indoor access to the rest of the house. Usually linens provided includes towels. Luckily I had packed a few.

Loved Otter’s Pub!

We had an awesome vacation in Frisco. The location of this house is great—close to Frisco beach, restaurants and areas for beach driving. The house itself offers beautiful views of the canal—quiet and relaxing. Just what we needed. I definitely recommend this house. Please do note that the second bathroom is downstairs and you need to go outside to access it—like a separate apartment if you will. Wasn’t an issue for us but something to be aware of. And to the owners, thank you so much for being pet friendly. Our golden loved it as well.😊

Wonderful quiet place on the canal

We absolutely loved the Otters Pub. Just big enough that all the kids have room but not 4 flights of stairs to climb. Grandma had her own little place downstairs for the kids to visit. A wonderdul porch to get of the sun. The teens loved the kayaks that was there. Unfortunately if youre wanting to fish it's not that good but didn't stop the kids from hand lining crabs right from the backyard. Everything we forgot they had there for us. We will certainty try to book this house again. There's no beach or direct sound access that was public in the development but the neighbors didnt complain about the teen boys trying their luck fishing in there backyards.

Great home in a nice quiet neighborhood

We stayed at the Otters Pub for 3 nights as we had to travel to Frisco for a wedding and the accommodations were perfect. The owners were wonderful to work with and promptly answered my many questions leading up to my trip with suggestions on dining and shopping and whatever else I may have asked. The house was very comfy and the neighbors that reside full time to the left of the house (facing the house) were wonderful as well. Very friendly and helpful with us being new to the area. My only recommendation would be to replace the pull out sofa mattress as it was "unsleepable". We ended up getting an air mattress out instead of using that. The kitchen was fully stocked (minus a dishwasher) and having bed linens provided was a bonus as well. I loved the house and location. I'd recommend staying here to anyone traveling to the area.

Nice with a Few Issues

Nice little 2/1 house in a great waterfront neighborhood. The 1/1 apartment downstairs was perfect for our 17 year old son. We enjoyed fishing from the dock in the evenings. Our primary issues with this house were the lack of any closets in any room and the lack of any cabinets to store groceries. The place was clean and well-appointed, but the upstairs bathroom smelled horrible. We smelled it the minute we entered the house. No amount of Frebreze helped, and we had to keep the door closed to keep it from stinking up the house. Would stay again next summer, but checking the rent, we're officially out-priced. Sad, because it was perfect for us.

Otters Pub was very clean and comfortable. Kitchen was very well equipped. A great place for putting in kayaks, which we couldn’t due to the weather. The location was close to stores, restaurants and attractions. Very attractive and well maintained. Definitely recommend for a couple or small family.

Lovely stay at Otter’s Pub

My husband and I had a terrific week in this home. We took nice long walks in the neighborhood with our dog. We sat on the porch and enjoyed the water. The home was well appointed with everything we needed. We even made use of the kayaks and wandered around the canals and the bay. This was the perfect spot for us to get away to enjoy the area.

Wonderful Location

This was our second visit to Otter's Pub and we were as pleased with this visit as we had been with our past visit. The house is very clean and perfectly located for kayaking, eating outside by the bay and close to the beach. The street is nice and quiet which is perfect for biking or walking our dog. We love that the deck can be closed in which allowed our pup to hang out outside without worry. We would absolutely recommend this rental to anyone looking for a cute little place on the water with owners who are so kind and responsive!
