Hi, so glad you had a nice visit at the Outer Banks and enjoyed our beach house.
This rental is in an excellent location neither too close to the beach nor too far. The beach house was everything as advertised and more. The rooms were clean, nicely furnished, and comfortable. Our stay was at the beginning of the season so our days were warm and the nights cool. We liked that we were far enough away from the business areas (quiet) but not so far for restaurants and services. Overall we loved staying at this location!
Nice place to stay close to everything to have a great time on the top 3 list of stays we have been foing to the obx for 6 years now and would recommend this stay for surw
We had an amazing peaceful stay. The property is clean and located very close to the ocean. Also, its quote and intimate and has beautiful sunsets.Laurie has been extremely accommodating and helpful
Perfect in just about every way. Enough beds for me and my friends, steady wi-fi, In walking distance from the beach, and a short drive away from everything we wanted to do. We would definitely rebook at this house if we ever come back in the future.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at “Down South”! The house was exactly as described and met our expectations. Centrally located on the islands allowed us to visit places north and south. The beach was just a short walk from the house. We saw a couple of coyotes out and about, so be careful when walking in the evening!
The house was super convenient to everything we wanted to do in the area. It was well stocked with all essential items and many extras. I have been coming to the Outer Banks for over 60 years, so I know what I like.
We loved everything about our stay at Down South and will definitely be returning. The house had EVERYTHING and then some that one could need at the beach.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at down south! The house was clean upon arrival and very cool and comfortable. The beds were comfortable and we enjoyed sitting on the screened porch. We will definitely consider staying here again!
