We enjoyed our time at the beach house! It was clean and close to the beach access. The host was responsive when I had questions before our trip. Overall, it was a great stay.

The property is fantastic! Very clean, and everything we needed in the kitchen for meals. Beach access was about a quarter mile away, and we did have to walk over a large sand dune to get there. But this is all explained up front. Carol is super responsive when needed. Thanks for an amazing stay!

Our stay at Fiddlestix was great! It’s within walking distance of the beach and several local businesses. The house is the best we’ve stayed in: beautiful, LOTS of outdoor living/deck space and more than enough conveniences to make cooking and enjoying family time at the house a real pleasure. Highly recommend.

Awesome time in Salvo!

The house was great! We loved the town and how laid back it was. The floors on the 2nd floor could use some cleaning, but otherwise our stay was awesome. We'll definitely be back

Perfect Weekend

Beautiful home that had all the amenities of home. Very clean, comfortable, spacious and inviting. Wish we were able to stay longer than just the weekend. If going to the Salvo area, would definitely rent this home again.

Blessing

Property was very nice, great location, the walk to the beach is close and so convenient. We truly enjoyed our stay, it was a blessing! The beach was great. We were all very comfortable in the house we have a big family and everyone had a bed! Most of all it was very peaceful, and that’s what we love!! Would love to return next year!

Ocean sounds

Fiddlesticks was very clean and Carol was so good at communicating with us. The house was set up and stocked well which made cooking easy. We were 5 minutes from the beach and the walk was easy.

Good Times

We really enjoyed our stay. Conveniently located between Nags Head and Hatteras Island so if traveling north or south, nothing is too far. Very clean and well taken care of. Easy comfort within the house and lots of deck space with screened in porch as well. Our host was friendly and communication was great. Most certainly recommended!

Great house in a quiet neighborhood

This is a great place if you're looking for quiet and beach time. The beach was a short walk away. We had a bad weather week so we didn't get to see much of what OBX has to offer. We were inside a lot so I'm thankful that the hosts had a well equipped kitchen. Overall, a great place to stay. had a well equipped kitchenh makscomfortable.

Fiddlestix was a lovely house. The welcome gifts were a delightful bonus. Unfortunately, the twin bedrooms' television was broken, but that didn't affect us at all. I believed that we watched television a total of 6 times in our 9 day stay. The master shower was a bit small, and I wish there were a couple of extra towels, but overall, it was a very enjoyable stay and we loved the location and easy access to the beach. Plenty of room for everyone with lots of activities within a short distance.

Fun at Fiddlestix

We had a wonderful stay at Fiddlestix. The house is in a great location. It was clean and had all the amenities we needed for our stay. The beach is a short but difficult walk over the dunes and not accessible for my elderly mother. Although she opted to stay back while we went to the beach, she enjoyed sitting in the screened in porch area and reading. There was something for everyone. Thank you for providing a beautiful place for our vacation.

We loved the property as a whole. The outside shower to rinse off from the beach was a perk I didn't realize it had but was thrilled it did since we have 3 children. The cable in one of the bedrooms didn't work, but it didn't matter as our youngest was in that room and never slept in there haha. Overall loved the property! Highly recommend.

Beautiful and Relaxing Vacation Spot!

I wanted to take my parents, siblings, and niece to the beach this summer as a delayed Christmas gift and Santa certainly delivered! Carol and Ken's home is beautiful, spacious, and a very short walk to a wonderful (and not too crowded) beach. The home was nicely decorated and had more than enough amenities for us. We managed to pack mostly everything we needed, but if you forget anything there is a Dollar General very nearby and a Food Lion about 20 minutes away. I also STRONGLY recommend checking out the Waves Market and Deli; it's delicious very reasonably priced!All in all, an absolutely wonderful vacation and I can't recommend Fiddlestix enough! If we make another trip down to OBX I certainly plan on checking the availability of the property :)

Beach fun

We were two families with kids. The house was very workable for multiple adults and kids. The house has all the amenities you need. The proximity to the beach was great, a short 5 min. walk. The host was absolutely great and very responsive. One con would be the size of the bedrooms. They are on the small side, so it you need to put an air mattress down, there really isn’t much space. Not a problem, just wanted to mention it. Overall a great value for a stay this close to the beach!
