House has a galley kitchen, narrow and hard for people to pass each other in. If everybody likes to work together in the kitchen it won't work for you. Loved the view and the canal access. We thought the front bedroom was nicer than the master in the back.
This was s wonderful stay. Everything was ss advertised. Communication with Barbara was great. We are all looking forward to a return trip next summer.
Only thing I had trouble with finding local TV channels. Cheat sheet on how to operate Spectrum would help. Not accustomed to steaming.

Response from VrboOwner on 6 Aug, 2026
Hey Albert, so happy you enjoyed your stay. I appreciate very much your suggestion for a " cheat sheet". I supplied instructions as soon as I read your review. I'm sorry I did not have them while you were there, I would have happily brought them had I known. The living room TV and one of the bedroom tvs are new Samsung Smart TV's and I did not realize the issue. I hope you can come back and visit and I thank you for alerting me about the trouble finding the free channels! Best, Barbara
Repeat stay at a great spotThis trip was our second occasion to stay at this location. The house is located in a local neighborhood inside a gated community, behind the Wight Bros Memorial. Convenient to many attractions, grocery stores, restaurants; but peaceful if you just want to sit on the dock of a canal. The house was extremely clean and the amenities were as advertised and in proper working order. One of our needs is a pet friendly house; and, the host is very amenable to allowing dogs. When we decide on a time to visit the Outer Banks again, this place will be the first I look to book.As with our first stay, we have no negatives to report.
Fantastic spot for peaceful times and such a perfect cottage vibe. Just wish we had more time to relax ans recharge! Thanks to our host who was wonderul and very responsive. We'll definitely plan to be back again.
This place was clean, quiet close to beach and shops equipped with everything you could need
We had a very comfortable relaxing fun stay and would highly recommend it to anyone staying in OBX restaurants around the area are outstanding
Everything was great! We loved being right on the water in the quiet neighborhood. The screened in porch with that beautiful view was definitely our favorite!
Well kept, easy to schedule, comfortable. The owner was easy to work with. My daughter and two children here visiting from Germany. This was a perfect place to stay.

The Outer Banks has been our home since before we were married in 1983. Our children were born and raised here. We all love the water, ocean, sound, river if its water we love it. We also enjoy traveling, snowboarding, skiing, boating and just being outside enjoying nature.
