Clean, good price and location. Extremely limited if u want to cook. No stove or kitchen sink (there is a sink but nothing to catch debris if u wash plates etc so you need to be very careful. Small fridge and microwave all.

House was easy to find. Perfect size for one or two persons and the fenced porch for dogs was great.

This is exactly what you would expect from a tiny Beach cottage. It has all the basics you need but no kitchen don't expect to cook any meals here. There's a microwave for heating up your delicious leftovers and a toaster oven. The K-Cup machine is perfect for your coffee everyday on the deck. Less than two blocks from the Waterfront a beautiful walk to everything you need right here. Little piece of paradise. Just hated to leave but we will be back!

This was a cute place. My husband and I enjoyed our stay. We will stay again and recommend this tiny house.
The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars on cleanliness, is that it could use a little updating and lack of cleaning supplies. We had a swifter to use to clean but couldn’t find any wipes to use. If there was a mop present, we would have mopped the floors before leaving. We tried to clean and leave it better than before.
The guest book was full so we couldn’t sign, but we throughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you for sharing you little slice of heaven. ❤️

Charming cottage, quiet spot, convenient to shops and town. Excellent communication with owner, highly recommended rental.

While this property is in a great location, it is not cleaned regularly and allows pets, so there was hair everywhere. The toilet doesn’t work well and the water is connected to the shower drain so it really stinks when flushed. There are no sheets or towels and we weren’t informed of this until the day of travel when it was too late for us to bring our own.
Cute little place, but lacking a lot of conveniences and cleanliness.

Second time staying ….perfect for my dog and I. Would be helpful to have several glasses and 1 or 2 wine glasses there.

We enjoyed our stay on the Island!The cottage was clean and in a great location. Away from the main drag, but yet close enough to stores, restaurants and the beach. Wonderful people! Thanks again for sharing your home with us!! 🐶+Sam and Lynn

Nice cozy place for our first time staying on Ocracoke island, it was exactly what was expected - clean, AC worked great, good water pressure and very comfortable bed! Having the outdoor shower was great after a beach day. Location was fantastic, 2-3min walk to the tram stop but I recommend renting a golf cart, it was so much fun to explore the island with (recommended cart rental info is inside, it was very convenient, it was dropped off to us). My husband and I (and doggo) thoroughly enjoyed ourselves here!

We love staying in this area, and this cozy cottage was perfect for my husband and I. We arrived the day after the hurricane but had no issues. The owner is super responsive and we had no complaints.
Others complained about the cleanliness in some of the reviews, but I think that is because the previous visitors didn't do a very good job of cleaning up after themselves. I like to think we left it cleaner than when we checked in.
Would definitely stay here again.

Cute little house perfect for 1 or 2 couples. Exactly what we needed. Right up the street from restaurants and ice cream/coffee shops. Would stay at the same place again.

We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend it!! The location and amenities were perfect. Would not change a thing. Our visit was cut short due to the ferry was not running on Thursday (check out day) because of the approaching hurricane . Of course this is not the fault of owners, we were just disappointed we had to leave early. We will be back!

Cute little place with what we needed… a place to lay our heads and shower and chill after a Long Beach day. Golf cart was great to Cruze around on (rented) , place was close to everything and was very peaceful. I definitely would come back! The owners little story of how they landed the house was very neat and just to learn a little about them also. Needs a new autograph book to sign though…… we didn’t want to sign over top of anyone. Excellent place!

Great location, within walking distance of many restaurants, shopping and attractions. The outdoor shower was an absolute plus when trying to get 4 people out the door at once. The true feel of the outer banks. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and were grateful to find accommodations at the last minute, which also was pet friendly. Thank you!

Thank you for allowing us to stay at Whiskey 95. Perfect for couples and small families like ours (2 little kids). We really enjoyed the space and location to the local restaurants. Even the neighbors were very welcoming each morning and afternoon that we relaxed on the porch. Outdoor shower was a huge hit for me. Would recommend again on our next trip to Ocracoke!

The house was OK, it is in need of some TLC. Cobwebs inside, birds living in the eaves of the roof. It is missing pickets on the porch and several deck boards are loose and rotting. Bed was comfortable and the location was nice.

My family has stayed here the last 3 years & this year will most definitely be the last. There were cleanliness issues the 1st year but we assumed it was negligence on the part of the visitors before us, since this “cottage” is not professionally cleaned between guests. Last year I brought several issues to the attention of the owner— specifically a lack of cleanliness. The pull out sofa bed had been urinated on by dogs and smelled horrible, as well as the living room rug. The place was not cleaned (spider webs in corners of rooms, dead bugs on walls, bedroom floor was dirty, bathroom sink and mirror had not even been wiped down, skid marks in toilet). The owner said his family were the last ones to stay there and he didn’t notice any of these things. However, he told us he would address the issues and we decided to give Whisky 95 one more go. As soon as we walked in this past week, the ammonia stench hit us like a ton of bricks. The couch and rug were unbearable. We put towels down to cover the rug just so my children wouldn’t have to walk on it and we covered the couch with two sets of sheets. The bedroom pillows and comforter have probably not been washed once since our first trip in 2021–they are dingy and smell musty. Thankfully we brought all of our own bedding and pillows. The spider webs and dead bugs were still on the walls. I went to clean and there was only furniture polish and windex in the cabinet. It’s a disgrace and the owner doesn’t seem to care.

Me and my boyfriend came for a short 3 night stay and it was the perfect size for the 2 of us! Definitely a great location and the perfect little cottage! Great A/C system for those that like to sleep with it cooler. We will definitely be back!

We loved staying at Whiskey 95! It was the perfect little place for us to get away from everything! It was just far away from the hustle and bustle of the main road and still close enough we could go wherever we wanted in a short time. The golf cart rental access was brilliant and super easy to do as well! Thanks for a great time and we will definitely be back!

Saw there was an opening for a couple days so my wife, baby, and I came down to enjoy Ocracoke! The property is nice and was the perfect size for the three of us, seeing as we spent most of our time out exploring and enjoying the beach. Could be a little small for a bigger family but for what we needed it was perfect! I will highly recommend this place anytime anyone asks.

Cozy and perfect getaway. Easy and convenient golf cart rental through Buccaneer. Russell was great and made it easy to rent. We will be back.

Nice and quiet. Plumbing may need some venting, but nice for a couple. I brought my own crockpot and it was great after a day of judging on the beach.

We needed to bring our dog with us this time, so we had to find a pet friendly place. I was concerned about cleanliness both because it was pet friendly and because it is "guest cleaned". I actually clean for a rental where I live, so I know how awful people can leave a place! I was very pleasantly surprised... it was clean. I brought too much stuff... there were pillows, a mattress protector and a bedspread... all you need are sheets, towels, paper towels and trash bags. We enjoyed the porch/deck very much and so did our dog!
The owner was very responsive when I needed to change the dates of our stay... THANK YOU so much for that!
The owner says it's his personal cottage... we enjoyed the personal touches... he's a pilot, so the ceiling fans are propellers, lol. He must have a black lab b/c there's a framed photo and a painting of one hanging on the wall... and a little write-up on how they got the name "Whiskey 95".
It's a quaint, cozy little place with lots of character. It's within walking distance to the shops and restaurants.
My only complaint is that we didn't stay longer.

A friend was visiting from Minnesota. We decided to take a couple days on Ocracoke. The stay in the cottage was wonderful! Thanks!

Quaint cottage in the heart of the village. Conveniently located. Not the cleanest when we arrived, but we left it better than we found it and even donated a toaster oven we found at the Village Thrift. Comfortable bed in the bedroom. Couch had some pet stains. Rugs very sandy - could stand a professional/deep clean. We did our best to clean and left it in good shape. Great value for the price and we will be back!

The little home would be great for a getaway weekend. There was no stove or washer and dryer. We stayed a full week. The home is small, and you had to take towels, bedding and food. With microwave and 2 burners it was hard to cook, so sandwiches was quick and easy to do. There were some restaurants open so that was nice. They were very good too. Fishing was not so good that week but we kinda figured that out because of weather. The birds in attic did start chirping around 6 am so that woke us up, but that was fine. Neighborhood was quiet. Bed slept pretty well. TV's were great. Hot showers was good too. Nice overall trip.
5.0
The place is funky but not fancy and perfect for two ( and our dog ). It was clean when we arrived and we left it clean. We had everything we needed for the time we were there ( 6 days ) used heat once, and it was heavenly quiet in February/March when we were there. A nice break from snow ( from Canada ) and great beach walking. Beautiful island! Want to come back. Thank you William for sharing your place.

When I read in the description of the property that the hosts "don't use a cleaning service" I interpreted that to mean that guests are expected to thoroughly clean up after themselves because the hosts clean it themselves. However, when I got to the property it was evident to me that the place was not even checked between guests. I found a Solo cup full of hair sitting on the bathroom sink, which hadn't been cleaned, and neither had the toilet. I was fine with bringing my own linens, of course, but the blanket and pillows that were on the bed seemed like they had not been washed in a long time, and it would have been better just to leave them off. The floors didn't look like they had been vacuumed or mopped. Bottom line is it's fine not to use a cleaning service, but that doesn't mean it's okay for the hosts to not verify that the property is clean between guests. I signed up to clean up after myself, but I did not sign up to clean up after the previous guests. It is ultimately not the fault of the previous guests if the property is not checked by the hosts between guests. There weren't sufficient cleaning supplies provided beyond some 409 and a little dish soap.
Additionally, the pictures of the property are outdated and don't represent the current state of the property, which seems that it has not been taken care of in a long time. As other reviewers pointed out, there are noisy birds living in the attic above the bedroom. Host didn't respond to a question I sent.

Close to town/restaurants, cool details inside. Would love to come back.
