This was a great property for families and dogs. Quality furnishing, open footprint, and great yard for dogs to stretch out in. This property was conveniently located for the Blackbeard Revenge races that we were in town for. Our two families enjoyed our stay with plenty of time in the hot tub and watching sunrises.

Spring 2020 Weekend

We had a nice weekend at Osprey. The house has a great layout for multigenerational families, the kitchen is well-equipped, and the views from the deck and top-level are unbeatable. Would definitely recommend the house!

Needs a lot of work. Hard time getting lights to work. Breakers kept tripping. Dishwasher didn’t didn’t do much. Had to wash by hand. Great view! Will not stay there again.

The Shore Details team was great from the time we booked to any problems we had at the property. The property itself was a great location but was not maintained very well. The pictures on the internet make the property look way more appealing than it really was. Several faucets leaked and the carpet on the stairs and in the hallways was torn and had stains. There has been no money put into the property in quite some time.

The new decking and deck chairs were wonderful. The carpet in hallway is nasty. The dishwasher flops forward which disturbed my husband a lot. Lastly many houses have some sort of entertainment table which is nice for youth. Not sure where you could place it. Lastly the hose is broken and the outside shower wasn’t convenient for rinsing sand off feet.

We loved everything about our vacation except the house had black mold in which we all got very sick. Suggesting you disclose this, it’s not an inconvenience but a serious health risk for your guests.

AMAZING LOCATION!

Here are the positives: location (oceanfront), view, deck furniture, proximity to grocery store, shops, new microwave, once the water warms up it is wonderfully hot, great washer and dryer, comfy pillows! The negatives: the house is in need of a serious deep clean (not normal weekly cleaning tasks - those are done well), the master bed is a horrible taco bed (our backs are killing us), the place needs a major update to furniture/flooring (carpet has numerous stains, living room furniture is made from 2x6s), the BBQ needs to have a major cleaning (tried to use it the last night and flames were coming out of the back), the house is under a sales contract (the property management comp was very respectful in asking for access once during our week - we were not inconvenienced by this). We hope the next owner will love on this house! People select this home for the location and size, not for the amenities.

The location of this house is perfect. You're right on the beach and close to the grocery stores and restaurants. You can't get any better than that! It was a great size for our 16 guests!

Amazing location but house needs TLC

What an amazing location! And plenty of space to bring the whole extended family, which we loved. The family room expanded to fit us all comfortably and the deck was awesome. Our complaint is that no one has done the necessary maintenance in a while. Some plugs don’t work, paint is peeling off everywhere, it desperately needs a deep clean, and the guest quarters over the garage was dirty and full of sand. Despite my heartbreak for a beautiful house that’s being neglected we loved every second of our stay in Avon!

Beautiful location but house needs work

We very much enjoyed the location of the house right on the beach. The deck was fantastic with great chairs. We also liked the size of the house. The upper floor with the open concept living, dining and kitchen was great. The furniture and cupboards are very outdated which is fine but the whole house needs a good scrubbing. The guest house had it's issues including a clogged shower, a very loud A/C (which ended up not working) and ants! The ants started in the kitchen area, migrated to the bed and then to the suitcases/clothing. The guests in the cottage were luckily able to move into the main house since there was a spare room available. Ants were also found in a cupboard over the stove in the main house. The size of the fridge was average but when you have 9+ guests there needs to be more room for food and beverages. The kitchen was fully stocked but little things like very dirty potholders were a turn off. The showers doors were moldy on the outside as they did not close properly. Water pressure was low due to old shower heads with mineral deposits. The primary bathroom on the top floor off the living area had a sink faucet that wasn't secure to the sink. The vacuum barely picked up but there were 2 so we were able to use one of them. It was great having a washer/dryer unit. Communication with the rental agency did not always solve the issues. Overall, this could be an awesome property with some work, updates and cleaning. We expected a bit more since the amount paid was pricey.

Beach house

House has plenty of rooms and good location. No stairs from the back of the house to the beach and lack of amenities upon arrival but we’re brought over the following day.

Great Stay for Family Reunion

We loved our stay at the Osprey. My husband and I put the trip together for my family. We stayed in the guest house which was perfect as we both had to work a little bit and it was nice to have a place to retreat to for phone calls/zoom meetings. The main house is gorgeous and the view is unbeatable. Loved the large dining table and loved all of the chairs on the porch. Great for reading with a coffee in the morning. Of all the places I've stayed in obx this was also my favorite in relation to proximity to town and everything we needed. Right across the street from food lion, tons of restaurants, and shops. Avon is great bc it's right in the middle of all of the great little towns you want to visit. I would highly recommend this area but specifically this rental. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Overall our stay is great. The location is very relaxing. I think it is more fun if you go there during summer so you will enjoy the beach. It is a nice place. Great if you have friends or families to come with you since it is a big place not to mention the guest house. I recommend the place if you want to experience a different serenity and comfort.

This is an incredible house!! The pictures don't do justice to the view. It is truly stunning. Our extended family of 14 stayed here comfortably. The guest house is perfect for family units with little ones or guests who need quiet spaces. My 3 month old baby and 3 year old slept so well in the guest house with me, and it was quiet so they could sleep soundly but also not wake up guests in the main house when they woke up early. The beach front access is ideal, and we could sit on the deck and watch family members who were playing on the beach below. The top floor living area was fun for cooking and family meals. The house is also walking distance to the grocery store and great restaurants. This is truly a gem- if you're questioning whether or not to book- go for it! Shore details is an incredibly responsive host. One of the best airbnb homes I've visited.
