"We loved every minute of our stay here. Everything you could need was provided. The owner was laid back, communicative. We will be back. Very memorable experience. Just what we needed. "

"Absolutely fabulous from top to bottom. Myself and several brothers stayed a few days here for a bachelor’s getaway and had an unforgettable experience. This is an amazing home that is clean, wonderfully furnished and an extremely considerate and responsive host. I really appreciated the host staying in contact from before the rental date and through it till the end. The host felt like an old friend! The location is ideal for a comfortable getaway adventure for several people. It’s like a home away from but in paradise. Great access to the beach, two fully equipped kitchens that made cooking a breeze and plenty of room to relax after a long day of fishing or hiking. If you are visiting Corolla beach this is the home to stay in. I know my friends and I will certainly return every time we visit the Outer Banks!"

"Absolutely fantastic trip for my family with three teenagers. A great blend of relaxation and things to do. The host was very friendly and responsive. Would highly recommend."

"We had a great visit. My only mild complaint is that we like a firm mattress, otherwise we would definitely recommend this house."

"I loved the property. Submerged in nature. Was so nice to see ospreys and herons, wild horses everywhere. I loved offroading everywhere, it was so fun. Every turn had a new adventure for me and my dog. The house is tiny but the property is very large. I don't think that should deter anyone. The owners went above and beyond to help me with airing my tires down. They were fantastic hosts. Me and my dog had a great time. "

"Was a perfect house for how many people we had. The cleanliness wasnt the best when we first arrived but the owner took care of it right away. "

"Property was easy to get into. Andrew is great to deal with. I forgot my last payment and he texted me to remind me and I was able to pay and not loose my reservation. On key thing, although the listing says 4x4 it was easy for us to overlook the fact that there was an unpaved road on the beach that was required to get to the home. Thank goodness we had 4x4. Couple other things, the rule book in the home mentioned outside access to water for rinsing sand from underneath vehicles, but the outside water wasn’t working. The internet connection mentioned in the book with password, wasn’t working. The network connection listed wasn’t available as listed in the book. Additionally it was mentioned to clean up dog poop or you’ll be charged. We cleaned up so much dog poop that was definitely not from our 17lb Boston terrier. I love this property but there should be more info in the listing. "

"We absolutely loved the hot tub on the second story back porch. It faced the yard, not the canal. The place was cozy for two people but no more. There is an induction plate to cook on, so we brought our non-stick induction pan to make life easy. We loved hanging in the hammock in the porch area. We also enjoyed setting on the bench overlooking the canal. Take the exit by the fire station to find the place easily. The flashing tower is a great landmark close to the accommodation. We saw horses, deer, seals, and squirrels while we were there. Nice place and nice people! "

"We recently stayed at this house for our vacation, and while the view is absolutely beautiful and truly one of the highlights of the stay, there were several things that we did not like and feel should be improved.The kitchen was not well equipped—there were not enough cooking utensils, which made it difficult to prepare meals. Additionally, there were a lot of flies, which made it uncomfortable at times.We also noticed that there was no toilet paper provided, so if you plan to stay here, make sure to bring your own. Another inconvenience was that there were no beach towels available.Another important thing to know is that if you do not have a 4x4 vehicle, do not even attempt to drive there. The access requires about 7.5 miles of pure sand, and you can easily get stuck.Also, keep in mind that the nearest store is a little over 30 minutes away, so it’s important to come fully prepared with everything you may need.Regarding the pool, we were unfortunately not able to enjoy it. It was not cleaned during our stay, and despite asking, the heater was not turned on for us.Overall, the location and view are amazing, but the lack of basic necessities, poor maintenance, and accessibility challenges took away from the experience."
