Reviewer Comments:
This house is alittle dated but checks all the boxes. It has everything listed in the description and would have been the perfect house for our beach vacation. However, it has mold. Our entire group was sick by the time we left and no one was sick before arrival. During the tropical storm their was a leak in the ceiling and you could see where this wasn’t the first time there’s been a problem. Their was mold build up in the bathrooms and rusted fixtures. I understand that storms/flooding/water happens at the beach but that’s why most houses don’t have carpet. When I reported the water damage after the storm the maintenance person didn’t even bring a bucket for the leak or fans to dry the carpet. There was also molding cardboard boxes in the garage that smelled bad.

Reviewer Comments:
There was mold in 3 of the full baths (the 2 of the middle level and the lowest level). The mold was on the floor, along with heavily rusted floor vents in those 3 bathrooms. The kitchen was a mess- microwave and stove/oven were soiled, crumbs/food on the countertops, and about 1/3 of the plates and cups were sticky. All of the rooms had been partially dusted- places some people wouldn't normally look at hadn't be cleaned in months (fans, lampshades, side table by couches). Definitely wouldn't be a safe stay if you're bringing children, given the mold and rust.

Our family had a wonderful time at the beach. Although ocean and pool cold the weather was also great. could use a couch in pool table area, instead of chairs and high top table. Kitchen cookware left much to be desired bring your own frying pan and some cleaning supplies for the outdoor plastic furniture. the pool deck furniture needs some improvement also. Property management very responsive to the few issues we had during our stay,still waiting for them to get back with us on how to retrieve a very sentimental box of games and cards we've had for over 25 years. hope they reply soon.

We rented this house last minute and are quite happy with it! The staff at Beach Realty are always great. Had the opportunity to meet the owner, nice man. The jets in the hot tub were weak and it stopped holding it's temperature on the second to last night. The pool guy corrected the error when he was there the day after we checked in, the same error popped up which is likely why is wasn't heating. Would be nice if instructions were left to fix error; we had no hot tub the last full day of our vacation. Perhaps owner will replace as the we were told the issues are because it's old.Overall house is clean and comfortable. Well worth the price. Directly across from the beach and walkable to many places. Recommend and would stay again

Walked in and noticed a few little things wrong ( back of chairs in game room wobbly ( which we screwed in), burners on stove crooked, faucet in kitchen leaking). Nothing critical we needed to call management about. We had 5 kids over the age of 10 and it was perfect for us ( 6 adults ). Furniture in living room not fancy but comfortable. The beach was across the street but the pool was a big HIT. Location for kids is good, a lot of things to do.

The house was very nice. Having the kitchen and living room area on the 3rd floor, which I assume is the norm for this area, means you will get your steps in :)
The ice cream shop next door is a must visit, delicious!
Location is great. A short walk to the beach, a short drive for groceries. Plenty of great experiences to be had within short driving distance.
I thought it was very nice to be able to check in/out online with phone. No hassle.
If the lights worked for the hot tub and pool, it probably would have made the experience a little better after sun down but not a deal breaker. The management of the property never really returned our calls or attempted contacts so never got that fixed.
Still, overall, had a great time with the family.

it rained 4 days of our stay, spent a lot of time in or near house. inside house has slight pet odor to it. vcrs are a little dated. some deck railings are a little wobbly. bring a hammer, deck floors have a lot of nails that are sticking up need to wear shoes on deck or you will hurt your feet. didn't like the increase in price from home away price to actual $400 increase at booking. otherwise is was a cool place to stay. it is a very short walk to beach.

I recently returned from another fantastic week on the Outer Banks with my husband and a group of our friends. We had a fantastic time despite the tropical storm that hit. Dollar Short is in a great location and has everything you need in a beach house and more. However, there were a lot of things we noticed once we got there. The kitchen appliances and cookware are very old and very limited. There was next to no porch furniture, which was a tad disappointing since the view was amazing and there was so much deck space. We LOVED the ping pong table, the layout of the house and the crow's nest. The pool furniture was very old and uncomfortable. That being said, I would definitely stay in this house again (though it wouldn't be my first choice) and the location is hard to beat. Would be nice if the owners could update the appliances, cookware, and deck furniture.

Overall the house is in good condition but the old washer and dryer and hot tub that were in the garage should be taken to the dump. The outside lights over the pool and in the pool did not work. Cabinets are broken in kitchen. Trash pick up should be on the day a family departs we had to borrow our neighbors trash can

I hate to start out on a negative side,but check-in is a joke.We have never had to deal with a realtor at check-in. We have always had lock boxes. And when they say 4pm, that's what it is. And there were lots of people there. I felt sorry for the people who came early and had to wait. 23 cars in the lot. We had just driven by the property and saw that it was empty,but we were told we had to wait on inspectors.The internet speed was awful!The internet speed couldn"t even handle web browsing.The house was clean,but the furniture was well loved and visibly worn.The appliances are all in good shape. And enough glasses,plates etc.The stairs and the deck in the back are a safety issue. The railing could be extended. And last the pool area could use some shade.We did love the views and the sunsets! Very neat to see Wright Bros. Memorial so close.Being this close to the beach was extremely nice with a 2 year old.

Beach Realty did a very good job - everything was automated and easy. The property was clean & offered plenty of space. The property is dated but, within walking distance to the beach which is very nice. It is also within the walking distance to some restaurants. My only negative comment would be that on the morning we were leaving, staff was on site making noise - I believe they were there to close the pool for the season but, it felt like we were being rushed out even though we left ahead of the 10am departure time.

We have been vacationing in OBX for almost 20 years and this home was by far the most poorly equipped of any we have stayed in. Barely enough dishes and flatware for 4 people let alone the 9 that it’s supposed to accommodate (we had 6 in our party - did not appreciate having to wash dishes after every meal); no corkscrew, barely any pots and pans, ZERO board games (that was a first for sure!), and the pool table was missing a ball! We did appreciate the inflatable pool toys, and we really enjoyed the hot tub and the pool. Overall, a nice home in a great location - ocean views and just across the street from beach access- but the house overall needs to be better stocked!

We had a great time! Good location, great layout. The property management company was outstanding as we did have a few things break, while we were there. The house is a bit outdated, the beds were not that comfortable and it really is not a good ocean view. Overall it is well worth the price.

We enjoyed the few days that we were there before having to be evacuated on Tuesday morning. We were disappointed that we didn’t get any refund since it was an act of God. We didn’t purchase the insurance we thought it covered if we couldn’t take the vacation but this was out of our control and shouldn’t be penalized. I would really appreciate if you would consider returning some of our money
