Nice property on the beach, good pool but it does need some work on the deck around the pool with boards sticking up. Clean cottage and the description is fairly accurate. Parking for 3 cars .

The master bedroom bed was extremely uncomfortable. There was beach renourishment going on which was not disclosed when we booked. The house had a good location and a nice pool..

Wonderful Trip

The property was everything as described. We were thrilled with the rental and plan on returning in future years, the process from finding the place through check in was seemless, and we will be using Kees and VRBO any time we return to the Outer Banks

The cottage was beautiful! It was conveniently located to everything we wanted/needed. Could not have picked a better location for our first time in the OBX and our first visit to the ocean 🌊

Location, cottage, complex-GREAT! Kees vacation management-horrible. Had to request extra towels twice, received them on the 3rd day. Response from Kees was always the next day. It did not get over 65 the first two days there, with 20-30mph winds. The second night is when we found out the heat did not work in our cottage. It was 61 by 3am in the cottage. My daughter woke up sick. Kees tried to say they did not know, I asked them why are we the only cottage with AC window units in the whole complex. Then they said oh, well we are waiting on a part. They knew the heating/cooling unit at cottage F was down and they still rented out the cottage to us. Cooler nights were in the forecast, so we asked to move to another cottage, no response. They left us to figure it out on our own. We will be back to OBX, but will never stay at a property managed by Kees ever again. I have used VRBO for 8 years, first bad review ever from me.

Comfortable Cottage

Cottage had a nice layout, convenient to the beach, comfortable beds/ rooms, and clean. Gave 4 starts b/c there were a couple of things that were not fully addressed: The dishwasher was broken; notified the property manager, but issue was not fixed during our stay. The beds were comfortable, but only included sheets- only one bed had blanket/ comforter. Housekeeping stopped by to drop blankets (we got one blanket and one mattress pad- there were 4 of us in the cottage). Regardless of these smallish matters, everything was fine and we had a good time.
