She has a complete separate entrance and does not use the upper level in any way and does not use the back yard. Therefore, the rental of the house, the yard, and the deck is completely accessible to you only as the VRBO guests.
House was cute, well-stocked, and just what we needed for a stop on our way to Ocracoke. Host was friendly & very responsive. Would definitely recommend staying here!
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re glad the house was a great fit for your stopover and that you found it well-stocked and comfortable. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we truly appreciate your recommendation.
It was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The neighborhood was quiet. We were there to visit relatives - my only complaint was that it was alittle farther from the beach than I expected but otherwise a very nice stay.
Thank you for your review! We’re glad you found the home clean, well-stocked, and enjoyed the peaceful neighborhood during your visit with family.
For future guests, the beach access is approximately 0.4 miles from the home ~ about a two-minute drive ~ and the Albemarle Sound is about 0.5 miles away. Our home is located on a lovely, quiet cul-de-sac in this narrow part of the Outer Banks, where guests can easily enjoy both the ocean side and beautiful sunsets over the sound. It was a pleasure hosting you!
The Relax Shack is awesome! The owners were very responsive and accommodating. If we ever need to rent again in Kill Devil Hills this is where we'll be staying!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review Adam! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay at Relax Shack and that our responsiveness and flexibility made a positive difference. It means a lot to know we’d be your choice again in Kill Devil Hills, and we’d be happy to host you anytime.
This property had everything we needed. It was very accommodating to our dog with a great deck that connected to a fenced in back yard. It was close to the beach. The hosts were very communicative and really pleasant. Highly recommended
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re so glad the property had everything you needed and that it was comfortable for you and your dog. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the deck, fenced backyard, beach proximity, and our communication. We truly appreciate your recommendation and would be happy to host you again. Thanks for being great guests as well:)
Very nice place on a quiet street not far from anything you would like to do very reasonably priced I would definitely stay here anytime I come back I would also tell everybody I know this is the place to stay
The property we satyed in was one of the better of this style we have stayed in. Everything we needed was there. Unfortnately for our style it turned out to be too far from the beach. That may not be a detriment to a small family with younger children.It was easy to get to eating establishments, which we found a few. The heat and humidity were a bit overwhelming but we knew that. There is nothing I needed from this place, I did not have. I will not deduct for our not knowing what we wanted when we signed up.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re glad to hear the home had everything you needed and that you found it easy to access nearby restaurants and enjoy your stay overall.
For future guests, the beach access is conveniently located .4 miles (point 4) from the house. We appreciate your feedback and are happy the property was a good fit for your visit.
Your family is welcome back anytime!
Very clean and centrally located in KDH. Comfortable space, kitchen has everything you need for cooking, and the porch and outdoor space are very nice. Dogs loved the backyard access from the patio and Amber and Brett were very responsive and welcoming!
Thank you so much Lindsay for taking the time to write us such a wonderful review!
We are pleased that you appreciated the cleanliness and set up of our property. Thanks for taking great care of our house. You are welcome back anytime:)
How easy it was to relax at the Relax Shack!! Amber and Brett really care about making their guests and their pets feel right at home. They take such good care of their property. The home was clean and stocked with everything we needed. Beds and sofa were so comfy. The fenced back yard was perfect for the dog. Nice bikes were available to use and bike path is so close. Neighborhood is quiet and is centrally located to walk or ride to the sound or the beach. Also, easy to take day trips to other parts of OBX. We enjoyed experiencing their suggestions!! Would definitely stay here again for a future trip!!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed relaxing at the Relax Shack and that both you and your pup felt right at home. It’s great to know the comfort, fenced yard, bikes, and convenient location all helped make your stay special. We’re so glad you were able to explore the area and enjoy our recommendations, too. We truly appreciate your kind words and would love to host you again for another OBX getaway!
Very clean and inviting property- met all of our needs for our family - and a thumbs up from our Goldens . The awesome shower made up for only one bathroom.
Thanks so much Wendy for taking the time to write a great review for us! I'm glad you're Golden's enjoyed our backyard. And I'm so happy you enjoyed our shower as well. I hope you come back in the future when you can stay longer:) Thank you for being great guests!
Our stay at the Relax Shack came during an unexpected heatwave. Having this comfy, spacious two-bedroom house allowed our 21 year old daughter, our dog, and US to spread out and chill out without getting on each others nerves. The house provided everything needed to prepare our meals and the large deck was lovely-when we managed to avoid the heat. I picked up a nail in my tire and asked our hosts, Amber and Brett for suggestions for a reliable garage to repair/replace it. They suggested a place only a few miles away and we were able to resume our vacation. Communication couldn't have been better. They are really lovely people!
The property was just what we needed! Family of three (2 boys 17 & 13) plus a 50lb dog. Great size backyard for the dog to get acclimated and feel relaxed. The space inside was just what we needed to relax after a long day. We forgot some items and luckily they were already at the house for us to enjoy. However, theres a Food Lion a couple blocks away just in case! The house was a couple more blocks to the beach than what I would have liked, however, it was perfect for tiring out my dog who needs to be walked daily. And Amber left a listing of blocks where there was public parking for the beach. The public parking was about two blocks further than our street, and as long as you get there early its easy to get a parking spot. The homes close to a couple great restaurants, mini golf, and the Wright Brothers Memorial. All and all it was a great trip for the price and location! Thank you!
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re glad the home was a great fit for your family and that the backyard was a comfortable space for your dog to settle in and relax. It’s also wonderful to hear that you found the house well-stocked and appreciated the nearby shops, restaurants, and local attractions.
We’re happy the beach parking information was helpful as well. For guests who prefer to walk, the beach is about .4 miles from the house, and many guests enjoy that easy stroll as part of their stay. We truly appreciate your kind words and are so glad you had a great trip overall.
Thank you so much for leaving your nice review! We are so happy to hear you enjoying to the house and also liked the kitchen. Thank you and hope to see you next year!
The property is beautiful and located in a convenient area! We were able to see everything that we wanted. Our hosts were quick to respond and definitely take care of the property.We’ll be sure to come back here on a return trip!
Property was as described, in a great location. Walking distance to many places but centrally located for whole OBX touring. Great yard for our dog; we appreciated the dog friendly environment. Owners were very responsive to all questions.
This property is absolutely perfect, especially if you are traveling with your pets. The easy, secure access they have to get from the deck to the privacy fenced backyard allowed you to sit and relax while they romp around. The inside is very bright and so clean, and they thought of everything to provide to make your stay seamless and easy packing because it’s all there. We enjoyed walking the dog down to the walking trail on the water every morning, it’s so safe a quiet. The house is centrally located to everything with plenty of great restaurants just blocks away. Amber and Brett were amazing hosts, their quick response to questions and just overall communication with check in and recommendations was definitely top notch. This is a little hidden gem and a great vacation value. You will love your stay at Relax Shack!!
Thank you so much Missy for this incredibly kind review! We’re thrilled to hear that Relax Shack was the perfect fit for you and your pets, and that you enjoyed the fenced backyard, the bright and clean interior, and the easy access to the walking trail. It means a lot to us that you found the home well stocked, centrally located, and a great vacation value. We truly appreciate your thoughtful words about our communication and recommendations, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime!
We had a great time here. The house was wonderful! Comfy and clean, stocked with everything we needed. The area is great with lovely beaches and great food.
We will definitely be staying here again if we take another trip to the OBX.
Good location with fairly close access to beach and the bay. Nice to have beach chairs, beach towels, bikes available. Communication was good with owners overall
It had absolutely everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. Our Labrador had full access to the yard 24/7. The hosts were extremely accommodating, responsive and nice.
Thank you so much for taking your time to write a nice review for us. We definitely enjoyed hosting your family for your vacation. We are so happy to hear you had a great time. Please come back next year!
