My family of 4 really enjoyed our stay here! The house is in a great location with a very short walk to the beautiful beach (if you want to be near a lifeguard, just walk an additional block over to Byrd Street). House was clean and well-maintained. Yes, the house is dated with mismatched furnishings, but that's part of the charm! We really appreciated the fact that all of the beds were made (with clean sheets) before we arrived, each bed had a clean set of bath towels (sealed in plastic) on it when we arrived, and there wasn't a list of things we had to do upon checkout (besides empty the fridge and take out the trash)! The outdoor hose (in the garage area) was great for washing sand off everything...as was the outdoor shower! The covered parking was great...I could even fit my SUV with a Thule cargo box on top into the garage area. It was nice having the multi-level deck with picnic table; you can see ocean between a few houses from the top level. There were plenty of outdoor deck chairs, but we would recommend (to the owner) to add a couple more comfortable ones (like the plastic ones that recline) to the top level. It was great having a fan in the master bedroom and central A/C that kept every part of the house nice and cool! We enjoyed several of the very close restaurants; Duck Donuts and High Cotton BBQ are a 2-minute drive, and Barrier Island Bagels wasn't much further than that. Harris Teeter grocery store was within 5 minutes of the house.

This was a cute house. Short walk to the beach. The house came with a few necessities until we could make it to the store. Having the deck high up we were able to see the water which was amazing. The door locks didn't work though.
