Overall we had an ok stay. It was close to stores and restaurants, it had majority of things we needed. But I felt like it was overpriced for some of the issues we had/saw.

House is great, a little dated, but everything was great. Kitchen equipment covers about everything and double dishwashers for our large group was great! I would recommend heating the pool, it gets cold.

The kitchen had enough stuff to cook every night. The elevator was great for groceries and taking stuff to and from the car. The pool was the best! Right across from Avon pier to access the beach. Everyone loved the house!

This is a tough one. The house had some very good qualities, but not a great first impression. The pool and hot tub were great. The house is great for a large group. The listing is an accurate representation of what you get. My complaint would be more with property management. No attention to detail. Lots of little things that could be fixed. Poor effort cleaning it from the prior stay.

Gorgeous house and location, but needs lots of attention/maintenance to make it worth the price. Pool was awesome... pool table and kayaks - not so much (worn out and falling apart...). Bring your own 12-cup coffee filters; the stores were out and none provided. No keurig, so don't bother bringing k-cups. Otherwise, it was ok. Still had a great time with family!

Rating the Pelican’s Pad with 5 stars for meeting all our reasons for booking it: beautiful home, bedrooms/baths, living/kitchen area, elevator from parking level, accessibility, handicap friendly bathroom, seclusion, privacy, views, very nice pool, multiple beautiful decks. Great new floors throughout, dog friendly. We did have some issues but Vacasa was prompt and helpful. Cleanliness was in our opinion not matching the quality of the home. The kitchen could have better ware. But we had a wonderful vacation, spent here 2 weeks. The location is also great, close to the pier, restaurants, shops, sound pathway, you could even walk to the community pool. For a lake location, we were pleased with the absence of bugs. Thank you!

We enjoyed our time in Avon. The photos of the house look better than the actual house as the house has definitely been lived in. We’ve stayed in OBX before and paid more for house rental, so we definitely weren’t expecting a palace for the price of this house. The top floor is beautiful with all of the windows and doors leading out to the deck. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to have the pool heated because we were told the weather was going to be too cold, but we had days in the low 70s. One of the bathrooms wasn’t cleaned when we arrived, but someone from Vacasa came to clean it for us, so that was wonderful. Also, if you are looking to fish in the water behind the house, you may want to look for a different spot. My son tried numerous times without any bites. Definitely a fine home, but not as stunning as the photos show. We are looking forward to our next visit to OBX!

The house needs a lot of work. The kitchen is disorganized and the refrigerator shelves are broken. The pictures online are deceiving. The kitchen utensils and cabinets need cleaning and organizing. We were missing bath towels for one of the bathrooms which took 3 days to get. The best part of the house was the pool, which was nice and a good size. There were several lights burned out throughout the house. The hand soaps and lotion could be nicer. We had one kitchen towel. I had to buy more. There is dog poop all over the backyard. The kayaks are broken and the pond is horrible. This house is way overpriced for the condition.

This cottage is AMAZING! Absolutely beautiful, very roomy. We loved how the majority of the rooms had their own bathrooms. The elevator was a plus for us.

My family & I stayed for a week in July. There were 8 adults & 6 kids. The house was the perfect size for us. The bedrooms were great as was the outside area. We had a hard time with the WiFi. Most of us ended up having to turn it off on our phones for it to work. I also did not like how the outside wasn’t completely fenced in. Our dog was able to walk outside from the theatre room & go down the steps & run free. I would have preferred she be able to get right into the pool area. Otherwise, the house was great for us!

The house is a perfect dog-friendly family getaway. It is on a cul-de-sac street, so bike riding is safe for kids. The pool, hot tub and two kayaks on the lake entertained all.

The shower doors in the 3 master bathrooms need to be fixed as they will fall in on you while showering and there is mold on the shower doors. The ice maker on the main floor does not work—we called upon arrival and a repair man came immediately but it never worked after he left. The stove does not work well and the one dishwasher works only on heavy load. Not as clean as I would have expected with dust and dead bugs on the shelves by the TV. Replacing the appliances and better cleaning would go a long way as it truly is a beautiful home!
