An Absolutely Amazing Spot With Plenty of Room, Direct Beach Access, and Accommodating Hosts!

This was an absolutely amazing spot! We were a group of 17 total and everyone had a place to unwind and plenty of room to get together. The boardwalk directly to the beach was unbeatable. Our hosts were responsive and accommodating. We will definitely consider booking when we come back to OBX next year!
