Hi Mary Ellen! Just making sure that you knew that we have pet friendly cottages in the Spring and Fall. The fall season starts the last week in August. The weather is wonderful in September! The water is still warm, great time for fishing as well. I completely understand not wanting to leave part of your family at home!!! Have a great day!

Perfect

I went with my 8 year old daughter 11 year old nephew and 13 year old niece and her friend. It was awesome. So greatful for the washer and dryer. Who knew teenage girls changed their clothes so much. Beach was perfect. House was well appointed as far as the kitchen went. I love to cook and only downfall was no pot holders but i bought some while we were there. It wasnt super populated which was perfect for me. Everyone was super nice. Our last night we had a fire and made s'mores on the beach. Decks views sound of the ocean. We will definitely be back again.

Thank you so much Suzannah! We love to hear that you had an amazing time at Sunrise! We really love to make people feel like they have found their home on the OBX, with all of life's normal conveniences! We will definitely look into pot holders! That is a wonderful suggestion! Thank you again and we look forward to your next return!

Our family vacation in April 2022

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've been vacationing in the Outer Banks for 10+ years now and almost always at the Lighthouse View. This was our first time we came down in the spring time. Very pleasant weather, daytime temps in the 60's and 70's. The fishing was good, the Red Drums were biting!! The ocean temp is not up to a comfortable swimming temp at this time of the year. The property was clean and the kitchen was fairly well equipped. Very convenient to have access to the street level washer and dryer. Furnishings were clean and comfortable. Some areas of improvement include: The WiFi network, is inadequate, the strength was poor which resulted in having to endure almost constant buffering when watching the morning news or evening television (My husband was a bit upset that the Spectrum TV streaming package did not include Fox News). The parking area under the property was covered in sand (1 to 3 inches), my husband spent a few hours the first morning shoveling sand to avoid dragging it all into the house and vehicles and to have a clear path to the laundry. The road (Oramar) to get to the house is BAD (I mean BAD!) pot holes and broken concrete galore and is covered with 2 to 3 inches (or more) of water every time it rains hard. All in all, still a nice vacation spot.

Return to our edge of the world

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second time to stay in this cottage. We liked the new updates since we were there last. We have stayed at the Lighthouse View since 1993 and 4xs. We've seen where the lighthouse used to be, when you could see it down the coast, and how much the beach has changed over the years. I love LHV. It feels like a very familiar relaxing and peaceful place to stay. I long to to go back.

OBX 2021 Summer Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Easy checkin. Parking under-house tight for Minivan, but made it work. Outdoor parking spots good. Easy access inside and to the beach. Plenty of storage for beach gear under house or in laundry room. Rooms good size for 1wk vacation. Open concept top floor very functional. Minor issues = 1. Wifi adequate, but had drop-offs throughout house especially at main TV. 2. Fridge missing a main shelf limiting storage, but we made it work for us. 3. Most windows couldn't close completely, likely due to age as visible deterioration seen at lacking mechanism and or lack of locks which made noise control from outside a challenge especially in room next to A/C condensers. Unit will be on our list for our return.

Great location!

Rating Details: The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall had a great time. Location was great and the layout of the unit was nice. The unit could have been a bit cleaner and maintenances better. Filters were filthy when we checked in. When we called they came immediately to replace. Two pickets on the top deck were not secure and the handle to the sliding door broke off. I marked all with tape so they could fix. Upstairs level was updated nicely. Downstairs bedrooms could be updated. For the money though, it was okay. Views and location were priceless!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time! Our families (42 of us) were scattered around the campus in five different units. We were a short walk to the beach. We enjoyed campfires on the beach at night. The only interaction we had with the staff was handled by maintenance ASAP. Everything was done by text. The unit was exactly as pictured. Stocked with everything we needed, was clean. We enjoyed the beach the most. Angelos pizza and arcade was great too. Ocracoke was a bust with a 3 hr ferry wait going and coming back. Not sure what happened. That was a Wednesday. We drove to Corolla to see the horses, Duck was just too crowded for me. Loved all the lighthouses.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, the stay was nice. The accommodations were excellent, clean, and had all needed kitchen appliances and utensils. My only complaint would be the lack of beach at high tide. Several of the beach front homes are currently unrentable due to the water line. I saw people fishing off of their decks. If I had planned on fishing there I would have been very disappointed as there were only a few likely spots.
