Contemporary Seadrift Lagoon Retreat w/ Hot Tub

Contemporary Seadrift Lagoon Retreat w/ Hot Tub

8/10 Good
"Beautiful home and very comfortable!! Kitchen had everything you could need. Beds were comfortable, plenty of space for everyone too. Out back was very enjoyable as well. Easy to kayak or paddle board and very protected from the wind which was a huge bonus.I didn’t read the listing description carefully enough and to access the bunk bed room you have to go through another bedroom. So could be inconvenient for some, like in our particular case, but for some might work great. House was absolutely clean although the hot tub had a very funky smell and caused some skin irritation."

10/10 Excellent
"Everything was perfect! And we had a full moon so got to see the ocean into the night! The disappearing sliding doors made us feel like we were outside all of the time and the weather was perfect and the waves were perfect rollers for the surfers in the group! Bedding and bed comfort in rentals is really important to me and on our last day I was looking for tags so that I could buy them for my own home ;) it was a magical spot for the family gathering and my moms 85th birthday!"

"What a unique place! My daughter was signed up for surfing camp and we were so lucky to find this place so she could walk to camp every day while I worked. There was a nice view where I could watch folks coming and going and the place was comfy and it was great looking at all of the art. Sha Sha was very communicative and let me know where things were when I asked."

"We loved this property and had a great stay. The team at Highway One was super responsive and helpful on questions/issues. The only real issue we had was that there was a strong smell of urine in the small sitting room which basically made that room unusable during our stay. They mentioned that there had been back to back dogs staying before us which was likely the cause. It just would have been nice for there to be a more thorough cleaning before we arrived so that room could be used."
