Going to Carova/Corolla was a bucket list trip for me. It didn’t disappoint. I saw lots of horses, lazy days on the beach and relaxing afternoons and evenings. I highly recommend this property.

The house was the most equipped and comfortable of any that we've ever visited. The seclusion was everything that I expected and more. The beach was beautiful and we were able to see plenty of horses during our visit.

Well designed, cozy and relaxing stay

We appreciate all the attention to detail the hosts put towards ensuring guests have a relaxing stay, including the pantry, laundry, beach supplies and games, books, movies and puzzles. The beds were comfortable and linens and towels great condition. Two coffee pot options a plus and beach access easy yet secluded. Great stay! Would definitely recommend to others.

This was like our home away from home. It is extremely clean and comfortable. The owners thought of everything you might need and provided it. The outdoor living spaces are perfect for relaxing and playing games. Our family enjoyed it so much that they want to go back

Gem in Paradise

Shore Relaxing is an amazing place. The house is absolutely beautiful and in a great location. We spent time hiking False Cape State Park (VA)...we found a gate to enter from NC. We also explored the Currituck Beach Lighthouse Park/Maritime Museum and hiked Currituck Banks Preserve. The wild horses made daily visits which excited, cautiously, our dog Roscoe. We look forward to a return to Shore Relaxing and would recommend to family and friends.

Serenity and Relaxation

From the start of our reservation through our stay the property owners were very responsive to any questions we had. The property was bright, spacious, very clean and perfect for our stay. We loved the ability to cook some meals and appreciated having some of the basic seasonings and condiments available. The location was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the 4 x 4 beach along with plenty of sightings of the wild horses. Perfect stay! We highly recommend this rental to anyone wanting to escape to a quiet remote area with all the amenities.

Excellent stay

We had a great time and loved this property- very close to the beach, easy drive or walk. Property was very clean and nicely decorated, and had many nice/comfortable little touches. The hosts were very thoughtful, leaving a baby gate for the stairs and sippy cups for the kids. Beds comfortable, our son loved the bunk bed set up. Outdoor shower was wonderful, the deck and screened porch were lovely. The photos do not do this property justice, can’t say enough great things about it.

Secluded Retreat

First off, I want to give a huge Thank You to the host's of Shore Relaxing!! The name of this property should set the tone for what is to come, on a vacation. The drive out on the 4 × 4 beach is beautiful, especially when we were greeted by the wild horses. The house is amazing & has this old, world charm about it but with the modern needs. )mThe feel of the home is open & airy when you walk in the door. It was stocked with everything we needed to cook & clean up afterwards, including a washer & dryer. The only thing we had to buy is our groceries. My family loved this place & all the memories that we made while there!!!

Wonderful Vacation!

Beautiful location! The house is amazing. The cleanest VRBO house I have stayed at, spotless. Lots of extras in the house in case you forget something. Beds are comfortable. The host are very friendly and super helpful. I texted a few questions and got immediate responses. They even went by the grocery store to help with a problem I had with a delivery order. We really enjoyed our vacation here.

Another Magical Week!

This is our second year staying at this beautiful and private beach cottage. We returned because it is now one of our favorite places for vacation. Our hosts Jim and Sue’s home is very clean, organized and has everything we need for our stay. The cottage is very comfortable with pretty décor through out. Communication with our hosts was prompt and friendly when we had a question. The location of the beach cottage is perfect with beach views and easy access to the beach. We love Carova for the exciting drives on the beach and the beautiful wild horses! We will definitely be back again to this very special place!

Thumbs Up

Honestly if these owners could run all of the rentals, that would be great! This place was cleaner than clean, almost every single thing was thought of and the furnishings are lovely. The addition of the antique pieces with the beachy items, just stunning. Most everything is here if you forget it, you have a back up. There are chairs and umbrella… things you must pack sunscreen, and towels. For those with Littles, the gates are amazing. You can actually sit down because they latch and close on every place, a child or dog may stray. Really great space. Intentional and much appreciated.

The Second Time Was Better Than The First

Our second year here was even more remarkable than the first! The owners keep one of the best properties we’ve ever stayed at! There were so many things we didn’t have to bring this year since they already had them, which made the entire experience less stressful on our whole family. We couldn’t wait to watch the sunrise from the top porch and play nightly games on the main porch! Corn hole and ladder toss below deck were awesome too. Comfortable beds and a cozy house make coming off the beach even sweeter. Thank you again for an incredible trip!

Simply Amazing!

Shore Relaxing is a truly unique experience for those wishing to get away and relax. Wild horses roaming into the yard, the ocean and sunset views, and quick sandy walk to the water were all amazing. The cottage was beautiful and the hosts thought of everything a family (and pet) could need. The layout worked perfect, and we enjoyed many afternoon naps in the comfortable beds. We loved driving to the beach and setting up camp for the day, but still being close enough for anyone wanted to walk back. The kids enjoyed boogie boarding in the brisk water and Tropical Storm Elsa added some excitement. We’re so grateful for the time away and hope to return one day!
