We were assured before our stay that the most recent review was some sort of revenge post and was inaccurate. So if they try to tell you the same thing, do not believe them. This house is completely rundown, needs a DEEP clean, and should not be being rented out until a number of things have been fixed. We tried working with the property manager on our first day and she wanted maintenance to come out but 1) our dog was at the house, 2) we were at the beach and didn’t want to deal with having to be there when maintenance was there, and 3) it would require maintenance and a cleaning crew to be there for a week straight to get this house up to standard. We have never in our two decades of renting homes left a bad review, but here we are. There is enough room for all the issues, so the following are the highlights:
- broken window in bedroom and broken screens
- flies and bugs everywhere
- sheets and towels from previous renters left behind
- moldy kitchen appliances
- terrible wifi
- multiple broken outlets
- dirty walls and kitchen cabinets
- mold on ceilings and coming out of air vents
- air filters look like they haven’t been changed in years
- nightstands and cabinets in kitchen covered in sand
- toilet bowl cleaners next to toilets look like they are covered in feces
- missing shower liners in multiple bathrooms
- missing lightbulbs in multiple lamps
- paint chipping all over the deck
- nails sticking up on deck
- pool lounge chairs dirty and cracked

The house was very dirty had to spend the first day bleaching & cleaning everything .. lots of large bugs, beds were very cheap & uncomfortable.. electrical problems with the outlets , even ruined 2 of my new chargers . Everything was out dated in the house it was not a homey feeling in the house .. felt like a cheap hotel .. for the amount of money they charge ..it should have a way better feel & .. cleaner atmosphere.. there was dog hair everywhere, we don't have a dog .We were very disappointed .. No one wants to be in a dirty home

We enjoyed our stay, but feel things should have been in better condition for the price we paid. Three of the mattresses were extremely saggy and uncomfortable. Many things were just in need of paint or repairs. Hopefully the owners will get these things taken care of, because this home has a great layout and location!

Nice house in a very good location. However, it does need some TLC. Towel bars were down, bifold doors didn’t close , some electrical outlets didn’t work and the deck had lots of nail pops around the pool that were dangerous. The electric garage door opener also needs TLC. With encouragement it went almost all the way down. Unattended, it didn’t close.
IMO a great floor plan for a three generation family reunion.

We had 12 people staying at the house and 16 people for dinner each night. Lots of room for all, and 16 of us were comfortably seated at the 2 tables in the dining area.

We take our managers on a company retreat each year and found this place big enough to house everyone with there own bed. The house was ideal for us being it is large and great location close to the beach and town. The only complaint we had was, most of the mattresses were either worn out or the mattresses are to thin for a grown adult to sleep in comfortably. The house could use a deep clean for example, we found old chips under the reclining sofa when pulled out and lots of dust on all ceiling fans. All in all.it was a good trip but owner needs to recognize the issues and correct before we would stay again.

My overall experience was great! We did encounter a woman that wrote down all of the license plates of my guest as well as follow us to and from the beach.
The property was well maintained but a little deceptive because it doesn’t tell you the 7th bedroom is in the basement. It was really cold down there. One toilet was broken and the microwave handle was broken but other than that, everything else was wonderful.
Is definitely rent it again.
Thank you for the great experience!

We rent a house in the Outer Banks every year and we have never had issues with a house like we did this year. The house was covered in mold! All the vents had mold coming out of them, there was mold on pillows in closets and the whole house just smelled like mold. It’s really a shame because the location and the layout of the house could be amazing but the general upkeep of the house was despicable. There were also electrical issues with some of the outlets and several broken items found throughout the house. The cosmetics of the home were not great either. There were too many scuff marks and drywall compound marks to count and uplifting tiles in the kitchen at the most highly trafficked areas. We tried to make the most of our trip but it was very hard when every morning the lower levels smelled overwhelmingly like mold. We will not be renting this home again in the future.

We expected what we paid for. A nice clean house close to the ocean. Instead we dealt with flies, cockroaches, and garbage. I just don't want bothered with problems on vacation, and this vacation I was having to deal with too many problems for a price tag this high. Very disappointing. We won't be back.

The property is large, convenient to shopping, food and sites and only a short walk to the beach. There is a pool on site but it was not yet ready when we stayed. Pots were old and mostly not usable so bring your own. There were some ants but I advised management so hopefully they will spray.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay and management was very responsive to the small issues we had.

We enjoyed our stay very much! Very easy to communicate with the management property. House is great for families, everybody has their own space. Very close to the ocean, you can hear the waves. Plenty of room inside and out. Pots and pans are not the best, but we managed. Everything was in working order and no problems arose during our stay. Hot tub was kid's favorite cause our week was a little chilly, but we were pleasantly surprised the pool was ready! My grand daughter was the brave who fully enjoyed the pool. Over all, I would highly recommend and would stay here again. Very close to everything!

When we first arrived and did a walk thru found several things needed repair. There was a clock on the floor. We needed info on internet. On walk thru found down stairs refrigerator was not working and when we opened it had an awful smell. Since this fridge was not working the 1st nite we had some food go bad that we brought cause we couldn’t use it. The ping pong table as shown in the picture was not there. The outside deck had nails that needed to nailed down near the hot tub. The area by the outside shower had a lot of mildew in and around it. The trash bin was broken in the kitchen. Lastly random people showed up in the yard without us being notified to the point it scared my wife one time because it was early in the morning and the guy was out by the pool and pool was covered and not in use. There needs to be better communication with the management and renters on that issue in particular could lead to a bad situation. We did lodge a complaint with property management and we were talked to in an inappropriate manor. We also lodged a complaint with VRBO and NC real estate association. All these things took away from our stay which could have been better.

Loved the layout of this house with each bedroom having its own private bath. Plenty of room for everyone in our family. Hot tub was great. Very close to the town of Duck.The house does need some updates in the kitchen (pots and pans were rusted and worn out and had some missing caulking on the countertop around the sink) and a better job of cleaning, particularly hardwood and tile floors which were a bit dirty. The door to one of the master suites didn't close all the way. We also had several bulbs in the recessed light fixtures burned out in the main room, kitchen, and some of the bedrooms. Maybe this was due to renting out of season. Most of these are minor things a handyman and a good cleaning crew can remedy. Overall it was a very comfortable, quiet stay. Thank you!

We enjoyed this property’s amenities and location. You can’t beat that short stroll to the beach and quick drive to Duck and Kitty Hawk’s shops and restaurants. Our group consisted of grand parents, aunts/uncles, and two families with young children (infant to 8yo) and older “kids” (24yo). Everyone enjoyed the large family room and dining room! It was easy to come together for meals but also have our own spaces to relax. The hot tub was a highlight for us achy parents. We did use the pool a few times but given that it’s end of Sept and it’s not heated, we preferred the hot tub. We did call for maintenance for minor issue and the agency was very receptive and the maintenance worker was very nice and efficient. Overall, we had an excellent stay and look forward to the next time we can visit!
