Older updated cottage. Needs some more updating in places.Dual coffee maker leaks on counter and in need of replacement. Hot water supply spotty. Leak under kitchen sink. Horrendous Wi-Fi as you can connect but no internet connection????? Contacted host via VRBO on Friday evening as of Monday when we checked out never any answer from host? I owned short term rental property in OBX and used a management company with much better experience. Is this reflection on VRBO or specific owner???? Unsure if using private rental in the future or stick with properties under property management services so guest communication and amenities are monitored in a timely manner.

Great family house.
Stayed over Thanksgiving and kitchen had everything we needed for a proper meal! Property just as description says! Clean and very easy to communicate with owners. Family of 9 had lots of room to play pool and ping pong, walked to fishing pier and tie dye shop. Would definitely stay again. Thanks.

A Week Bacon In The Sun
Overall the cottage is comfortable, reasonably close to the beach as well as other restaurants and places we like to visit. There were a few items of safety concern, mostly because of the 1-6 year olds that were with us, that I submitted to the owner and property manager who took care of them immediately. We love the area and would be happy to return to this cottage.

Great Stay at Bacon in The Sun
If you are looking to stay in Kill Devil Hills, NC, I highly recommend Bacon in the Sun. The whole experience from start to finish was fantastic. The Darden’s have absolutely thought of everything for a great vacation. The house is a short 5 min walk to the beach and the Avalon Pier which has music every night. The house was clean and felt like home. The fenced in backyard was perfect for our dog who was able to run and play without worrying about being on a leash. There are lots of great restaurants close by also. You won’t be disappointed with staying here.

Wonderful birthday week!
I have to say this was one of the cleanest homes we have rented in the Outer Banks in many years. It has a great layout for family, with a game room and plenty of room for everyone to spread out. They provided all the amenities that you could possibly need for a great week. Thanks to the owners for a very enjoyable birthday vacation.

family beach vacay
We enjoyed our stay at BACON in the SUN! Location was great, easy walk to Avalon pier and the beach, and easy drive to grocery stores and restaurants.
The house was as advertised, and everything was clean and in good working order. Young adult kids really enjoyed the game room. Older adults appreciated the well-equipped kitchen, and easy parking for 2 or 3 cars. The AC system worked very well, keeping the entire house cool even on hot days. The outdoor shower was clean, and even has hot water. Check-in and out was clearly explained and straightforward.
Traffic noise was significant when on the deck, but not an issue inside. The property is only one house away from the busy highway running down the center of the island.
Overall, would happily recommend to others.

Perfect House for Family
Overall we had a wonderful stay at “Bacon in the sun” and definitely want to stay again. We had a few problem when we arrived and I called owner and he made them right quickly. They are a joy to work with. Once again can’t wait to plan our next trip with this house in mind.

Perfect Beach Getaway!
Our group thoroughly enjoyed this house! We spent the morning and evenings cooking in the beautiful kitchen, riding bikes, or relaxing on the deck! I will say, this is pet friendly and we LOVED the fenced in yard, but do your research as the beach is not pet friendly. That was my own fault. Thankfully we had rented a golf cart (not exactly necessary, it’s not a bad walk but our group had a lot of stuff) and we drove down to Kitty Hawk on the golf cart or truck. The highway isn’t loud at all and I was worried about that, since I’m not used to any night time noise. I will say it’s hard to get out if you are turning left on the main highway, but not a dealbreaker for us. Overall we really enjoyed it. I quickly booked this for our group really without any opinions because it was such a rare gem and I got so many compliments on finding such a great property! We will be back for sure!

Details to improve
1.-The photos only show how beautiful the house is.
2.- The shared bathroom for 2 rooms needs to be improved.
3.- There is a musty smell in the basement.
4.- The kitchen oven was not clean and we had to clean it to be able to use it.
5.-I think you (VRBO) should have staff that check properties regularly and not just go by the photos that clients post.

Good Experience
Pros: Great price and great location. Very close to the beach and restaurants! The house was very spacious and had a well stocked kitchen. There was a pool table and air hockey and multiple tvs. The deck was really nice. Lots of seating in the kitchen. It is dog friendly and has a fenced in backyard. The beds were very comfortable. Cons: The overall house just felt kind of dingy and had a musty smell. The house needs a deep clean, there was insufficient lighting in kitchen and backyard had old boards & cigarette butts in the yard. The first 3 people who showered got hot water but whoever was last got a cold one.

BACON in the SUN was a Disappointing Experience
We arrived prior to check in time and checked the lockbox as indicated for the keys to the home. There were no keys in either box. When contacted, the owner responded informing us the cleaning company did not leave the keys as they should have and said the keys would be arriving from the cleaning company. We had to wait an additional 50 minutes past the 4:00 pm check in time for the keys to be brought to the home
Some of the amenities were not functioning as advertised. For example, during the stay the air conditioning went out and did not work. A message was sent to the owner on Monday. We did not hear from the owner regarding the issue until Wednesday evening. When we heard from the owner, we were told the messages were being sent to their child’s cell phone, which was the reason for the delay in the response, but when responding about the key issue, the message was responded to in a timely manner.
Additionally, the dishwasher was not working. When notified, the owner indicated that it could be due to the GFCI outlet. This did help, but again another issue in the home that required the owner to be contacted
Communication with the property owner/manager was not responsive. The numbers provided on VRBO app and website were not accurate. The messages were being sent to the child’s cell phone
With the a/c being out, we opted to sleep in the lower level since it was cooler. While preparing the pull-out couch we found mouse droppings in the mattress.
Not a great stay

Great location BUT could use some care, a lot of repairs, as well as an end of season deep cleaning
LOCATION:
Two blocks from the beach, walking distance to Avalon pier, a few restaurants near by mostly a short drive. Close to grocery stores and coffee shops. 5 minute drive to most any food type.
CONSTRUCTION
Currently on a brand new house directly behind it.
BUGS
Did see cockroaches on the front porch 2 of the 4 nights we were there nobody wanted to hang out on the deck with them.
HOUSE:
Kitchen is great, recently renovated needs a deep clean and a couple cabinet doors don't close right but nice. Blood under the glass in the fridge from previous renters. Leftover cigars in the dining area.
Upstairs bedrooms are carpeted, the carpet is matted and should be replaced. Furniture in both bedrooms are broken. Comforters are in need of replacement some are stained and don't smell great. We didn't use any of them at all.
Downstairs bedrooms didn't get used, a couple hours after being in the house none of my girls wouls stay in the basment. None of the adults wanted to stay down there either. We doubled up upstairs.
Dozens of cracked and broken tiles with loose pieces Downstairs, I would suggest watching your step or wearing shoes at all times.
BATHROOMS
Upstairs bathroom in the living are recently renovated and looks great, tub vent had fallen off into the tub but easily pushed back into place.
Upstairs jack and jill bath tub needs help. No seal around the tub and mold creeping up around all sides. Definitely wouldn't take a bath in that one.
Downstairs bath was decent, shower stall clean and sink was fine, toilet looked newish.
ADDITIONAL GEAR
Bikes, chairs, wave boards, small beach tent, sand toys and little cart available. Only used chairs and tent but all looked relatively serviceable.
Pool table was useless due to none of the pool cues having tips. Ping pong table top was there but heavy and not worth the trouble as there was only one paddle and a broken ball.
TVs
We were only able to get the tv working in the living toom none of the others turned on or worked with the remotes available. Some were labeled but didn't work may have been battery issues but no telling as they were all mixed up.
COMMUNICATION
Owner did respond quickly to issues. Not with a solution but that there normal cleaning lady moved and they are working with a service. So we cleaned the place as best we could.
Overall would have been better at a lower price point or if the wear and tear was taken care of regularly. It is an older place and it shows.
