Owners were awesome and house was clean and plenty of space. Fishing dock was great and the property was secluded and only a few neighbors.

Maggie’s property was the perfect spot as we traveled to visit family at Christmas. A beautiful location on the Albemarle sound with beautiful view and tranquility. The Christmas tree was a beautiful touch for our family as we were traveling with kids during holiday season. Would definetly stay again as it’s the perfect spot seeing eastern NC!

Everything was clean. Check in was super simple. The host was very communicative and quickly fixed any issues. The property is in a quiet neighborhood, we barely saw anyone. Fishing and catching crabs off the dock was alot of fun.

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
The location of the home in the neighborhood was very good. The home itself is a nice home, but the house was very nasty and disgusting. We were unable to stay. We left and came home early because it was so nasty. We contacted the host and informed her of the condition of the home and sent her pictures. She agreed that the home was not as clean as it should’ve been. She also offered to discount or refund us for understate nights and cleaning fee. It’s been five days now and I still have not heard anything back from her regarding a discount or refund, I’m hoping that she’ll follow through on that.

Rain and relaxation

We chose this property for a quick getaway to celebrate a birthday. It was a good choice. The house is well-appointed and very cozy. With one bathroom, it was perfect for the two of us although there were beds for four more. We appreciated the dog-friendliness of the house and the neighborhood. It rained most of the time we were there, but we were so comfortable that the rain only added to the charm and coziness. We had one evening when the clouds parted in the late afternoon, so we were treated to one of the famous, spectacular Albemarle Sound sunsets that we had heard so much about. We also spent a delightful day exploring the nearby town of Edenton. The only concerns we had were that the property is not ADA compliant (we are both in our 70s), and, although the outdoor decks are spacious and well furnished, nothing is covered, offering no shelter from rain or sun. Another thing that we found curious is that there is a spectacular grill on the deck, but no option for outdoor dining.
