Best location, favorite vacation! CCC is great, my family of 6 wouldn’t change a thing - we especially enjoyed the lower level/rec room area and being central to so many fun places in Nags Head.

I had a wonderful stay at this location just two blocks from the beach. The property was very clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, which made for a very pleasant experience.The kitchen was especially impressive and well-equipped, with all the utensils and essentials you could possibly need to prepare meals during your stay.The host was also very thoughtful and communicative. I was notified that the house was ready about 30 minutes before the official check-in time, which was a really nice touch and made arriving much easier.Overall, I had a great experience and would be happy to stay here again. Highly recommended!

The property is very well kept and clean. The communication prior to our arrival was fairly quick with responding time and helpful with details. The communication once we checked in was poor. It took several hours for the VRBO host to respond to our questions when I would have expected a faster turnaround to issues encountered.

Couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to stay. Short walk to the beach, clean, reasonably priced, and willing to take the dog. Would absolutely stay there againl
