Christy, Thank you for taking the time to post your review. We hope you will return in the future.

David, Thank you for the positive review. We designed the house so that all generations of the family will have their own space. Now that the community has added oceanfront and soundfront pools, courts, walking trails and bicycle paths, Castle in the Air is truly a family-friendly vacation destination. The quiiet, wide beach completes the picture for famiies to have a blast.

Jeffrey, Thank you for taking the time to post your review. Please contact us directly to advise us of the items that need work so that we can address them during the upcoming off-season. We hope you will return in the future.

Jon, Thank you very much for the excellent review. We are working hard to maintain the property, upgrade the amenities and provide a comfortable home away from home during our guests' vacations. Your feedback is much appreciated, and we hope you will return in the future.

Wayne, Thank you for taking the time to review your visit and to comment on the proximity of the ocean and the size of the house. We hope you will return in the future.

Matthew, Thank you for the outstanding review. We hope you will return in the future.

Scott, Thank you for the outstanding review. We try very hard to be responsive to all questions and requests so thank you for noticing. We hope to see you again in the future.

We have often enjoyed family reunions with our own family (4 generations) at Castle in the Air so we understand the benefit of having beach access across the private street which eliminates long walks down the street to reach the beach. We find that driving into the 4 wheel drive area is a great way to escape from the stresses of life, especially when we are fortunate enough to find the famous wild horses of Corolla grazing peacefully on beach grass or cavorting on the dunes. Although uncommon, this is the one beach (other than Florida) where we have found the relatively rare, large Conch shells. We designed the house with 4 Master Bedrooms for four families plus two more bedrooms and Rec Room for children to accommodate large family gatherings like yours. Also, thank you for the comments on responsiveness; the satisfaction of our guests is very important to me. We hope you will visit again next year.

Amanda, Thank you for the outstanding review. We think the house is in an ideal location where you can see the ocean and the sound from the 4th level deck which is a great place to watch sunrises and sunsets. We also try very hard to be responsive to all inquiries and requests so thank you for commenting on our responsiveness. We hope you will return in future years.

Tammy, Thank you for taking the time to post your review and for letting me know that the water slide was not functioning properly. This gave us an opportunity to repair the slide while you were still at the house so that your children were able to enjoy it. We hope you will return in the future.

Amber, Thank you for the outstanding review. We certainly hope that you will return every year for many years to come.

Sara, Thank you for taking the time to write your review. We are pleased that you found the house to be spacious, that the children enjoyed the pool and the short walk to the beach. We hope you will return in the future.

Jennifer, Thank you for the outstanding review. We hope you will return in future years.

Jessica, Thank you so much for the positive review. We strive to create a positive vacation experience for all generations of a family, recognizing that child-friendly amenities allow parents to relax and rejuvenate.

Megan, Thank you for the outstanding review. We do replace items and try to upgrade the house during every off-season. We also appreciate your acknowledging our responsiveness. We hope you will return in future years.

Lynn, Thank you for taking the time to post a review. Off-season maintenance is scheduled for April when we will address the issues you have identified, and the washer will be replaced. We hope you will return next year.

Thank you for your review. We are planning to upgrade decking during the off-season, and we will be sure to confirm that the toilet and sink have been repaired properly. We wish you had mentioned the cleaning issue because we always require the cleaning crew to return and clean areas that were not cleaned properly. We hope you will return in the future to enjoy the upgrades we have planned.

Charles, Thank you for taking the time to post your reiview. Yes, we stay at the house each off-season during which time we can identify the small issues that are missed during the busy rental season and correct them.

Thank you for your compliments, and we are thrilled that Castle in the Air accommodated your extended family so well. We chose the lot on which we built Castle in the Air because other lots on the street require guests to walk a block or more to reach the beach access which is right across the street from Castle in the Air. We designed the house with 4 Master Bedrooms for four families plus two bedrooms and two sleep sofas for children to accommodate large family groups like yours. Vehicles are permitted on the Corolla beaches only during the off-season. Since you visited around Memorial Day, the beach had not yet been closed to traffic for the summer. If you return next year, schedule your visit a week or two later so you will not see that traffic. As the pictures on our listing indicate, there are many activities in the area from paddleboarding, paragliding and ATV or Jeep trips to view the famous wild horses of Corolla to miniature golf, go-kart racing and rope adventure courses. In addition, there are many educational opportunities such as the historic Corolla lighthouse, Maritime Museum, Currituck Esuarine Preserve and Wright Brothers National Memorial. We can make recommendations if you return next year

Heather, Thank you for your outstanding review of Castle in the Air. We try very hard to respond to resolve issues reported by our guests and to incorporate their suggestions into our off-season upgrades. The result is the excellent vacation that you experienced. We hope that you can return every year for many years to come.

Jennifer, Thank you for the excellent review. We do hope you will return in future years.

Randy, Thank you for your feedback and suggestions for improvements. Prior to your arrival we advised you that most pools on the Outer Banks close at the end of September because pool heaters can only raise the water temperature about 20 degrees above the average nightly temperature of 55 degrees. You still requested that we heat the pool for your group, and our pool maintenance company advised us that the pool heater was working properly. We will be addressing your other suggestions in the offseason. Please check back on our future reviews to confirm that we acted upon all of your suggestions.

Dianna, Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We work hard to maintain the property during every off-season, and we will be addressing each of the suggestions you have made. We have the carpets cleaned during each off-season, but their condition at the end of the season when you stayed at the house depends greatly upon the manner in which previous guests cared for the house. We have addressed the issue of nails in the decking, sanded the decks and re-stained them to address your concerns. We have also installed new high-end, Maytag front loading washer and dryer so that future guests should not experience any issues. We are sorry that your experience was not what you expected, but we hope that you will return to see that we have taken all of your suggestions seriously.
