Reality Check: Close to Beach, Private Pool & Hot Tub, Sleeps 16

Reality Check will make your vacation a perfect reality with plenty of special touches to make your stay everything you wanted and more! It is a large and comfortable home with 7 bedrooms (3 master suites), a large private pool, hot tub and it is a short five-minute walk to the beach access path along Sailfish Street in the Whalehead Beach neighborhood. [Note: No dogs or other animals are allowed in this home.]

This exquisite and well-appointed home, which has been completely renovated and redecorated (including the addition of a new chef's kitchen), is in very close proximity to the beach, shopping and restaurants. Expansive decks offer gorgeous sunrise and sunset views with lots of seating for your family or group. Outside, a 10' x 28' private pool (open mid-May to mid-Oct.), hot tub, volleyball court, basketball court, tetherball court and various outdoor games offer plenty of opportunities to soak up the beautiful outdoor weather of the Outer Banks! Inside, all ages can relax with a game of pool, a board game, puzzle, or a movie in the Great Room or Game Room. There are plenty of new Smart TVs and DVD players throughout the home. So whether you enjoy relaxing or staying active on your vacation, Reality Check is the perfect fun and relaxing spot for your memorable vacation.

Wonderful time

This property was the perfect location for our family vacation. With 16 extended family members, it was big enough everyone had a little space to themselves but quaint enough we had some quality time together. Area is quiet and laid back. House is just as advertised- there were no surprises. Appreciate the app that made details convenient and easy to find. Highly recommend.

Amazing week in Corolla

Beautiful weather. Awesome house. We all had such a great time at Reality Check. Beautiful house, much relaxation, lots of fun and beds were very comfortable. We had everything we needed for an enjoyable time. Table seated our whole crew and kitchen was beyond fully furnished for making our meals. Centrally located. Easy access to everything. Would definitely stay there again. Thank you for making our stay memorable!

First time in OBX

We had a great stay at the OBX! The beach was beautiful and easily accessible and we had everything we needed, and it was a quick run to the grocery store when we needed something else. We would visit again for sure. One bit of warning, make sure your bikes are out of view at night. We had a bike stolen on our last night. You live and you learn.

Could use some maintenance

Stairs in back had nails sticking up, around pool concrete broken a bit. grill was rusted out on burners. Place was okay but for what we paid those items should not be. Plus supplying one role of paper towels is just wrong.
