Property exactly as listed. Gorgeous location, well stocked house. Property owner very responsive and informative. She called us to make sure we were prepared for the tropical storm coming. Very considerate.
Horses in neighborhood daily. Beach was perfect even with rip currents. Everything you could need for the beach is at this house. Just wonderful. Thank you.

This property is exactly as advertised by the photos and description, and it is made even better by the owners, Melina and Corey. Melina is quick to respond to any questions or concerns. The four bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked with eatery and cutlery and the screened patio dining area is perfect for enjoying the outdoors at night even if the weather or bugs don’t cooperate. Wild horses visited the property almost daily. For a property that invites pets, you would never know there were animals at the house. The property keeps a secluded charm while also being conveniently located adjacent to a beach access road that made walks to the beach and bringing the loaded truck down to the water very easy. Plenty of beach chairs and umbrellas are provided as well as boogie boards and beach games. Our family enjoyed the stay at Parked in the Sand very much and would recommend booking a stay in Corolla at this property.

The house was absolutely perfect for our family. We had always wanted to stay at Carova - the location and accommodations exceeded our expectations. Very clean, great size, set up really well - felt like we were at home. We had horses on the property pretty much every day. Amazing communication from the hosts throughout the process. We will definitely be back!

We cannot say enough good things about Melina and the Parked In The Sand rental!! The home exceeded our expectations! We enjoyed sitting on the porch in the mornings and evenings with only the peaceful sounds of the crashing waves and horses passing through. The house was equipped with the all essentials of home and then some! This was our first time staying on the 4x4 beach and we all said we would definitely come back and at stay here again.

We had a wonderful time at the property (grandparents/daughter/grandkids). The kids loved being so clean to the beach, and with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms there was plenty of room for all. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub and grandma and grandpa especially enjoyed sipping coffee while watching the sunrise from the 3rd floor deck. The kitchen has all the equipment and appliances needed to cook whatever meals you want and we used the giant pot to make a delicious seafood boil while there. The home is comfortable and very nicely decorated and inviting. The teens with us appreciated having WiFi and TVs in each bedroom. The host Melina was so helpful and patient with answering all our questions. Please do heed the advice and be sure you have 4WD vehicle with good clearance - with the number of vehicles being towed out of the sand, the towing company was doing a brisk business! Even the preteen & teen with us said they weren’t bored and want to stay here again, which is high praise from them.

We thoroughly enjoy the 4x4 section of Carova, and this house exceeded expectations for our stay! Communication with the home owners was easy. We appreciate being able to book a beach house for less than a week with flexible check in/check out dates. This is one of the only properties we’ve seen that lets you do that! The house was clean, well-maintained, well-stocked and had working appliances. We had a very relaxed stay and are looking forward to our next trip!

I thought I’d have a good time and enjoy my stay at this lovely beach house, but the house and Melina far surpassed my expectations! I think this house was the cleanest rental I have stayed at in the 10+ years of renting homes. And there was plenty…. Plenty of hot water, towels, dishes, beautiful views, you name it. It was more like staying at a friend’s house than a rental! I had a little trouble figuring out the electronic door lock when I arrived (my first time using that particular one) but Melina answered my call right away and talked me through it. Apparently there had been a rain storm and power outages before I had arrived and the internet/WiFi wasn’t working but once again, Melina picked up right away and together we and the service provider figured it out quickly. I cannot say enough positive things about my stay. Wonderful!! 10 ⭐️
Thanks, Melina! I hope to return again soon!

This house every single thing to make your visit relaxing. Games, hot tub, comfortable beds, cozy couches, and the kitchen is so well thought out and stocked. They even have a waffle maker!
And no need to search for the wild horses!! They visited the house every single day!
Thank you to the owners for sharing your wonderful home with us! 💕

We absolutely loved the home. It was stocked with everything we could want. It was decorated beautifully and situated at a perfect location in the 4x4 area. Directions were perfect! The Host Melina was so helpful and polite! Can’t wait to stay at Parked in Sand again!

We had a great family vacation at Parked in the Sand. The kids loved the off road experience to get to the house, and we all enjoyed seeing the horses around the house in the morning. The house had everything we needed and the kitchen was very well stocked. Melina was great about recommending kid friendly things to do and local places to eat.This was our families first trip to the OBX, but it definitely won’t be our last. Thanks for letting us enjoy your wonderful house.

We had a fabulous vacation! Been staying on the 4x4 for a number of years and never stayed several rows back, and it totally worked!! There was 9 of us in our party, and the house was a great size! Easy access to the beach whether walking or using the provided beach passes. Covered porch is fantastic, views from upstairs, hot tub was fresh. Once you stay here you’ll want to come back again and again! The Owner is incredibly attentive, accessible, and friendly. Well done!

Five Star Accommodations!
This vacation home is absolutely perfect! Extremely clean… Beautifully decorated. The kitchen is equipping with everything you need and more! All new appliances and plenty of space to prepare meals. Every room was very cozy and comfortable. Beds are extremely comfortable too! Very nice towels and bedding! My family could not get enough of the corn hole and card games. We spend every evening on the screened in porch off of the kitchen playing games and every morning having coffee there too!! Absolutely perfect place to relax and visit with one another. Very nice hot tube on the second floor deck. Very close to the beach. Beautiful views of the ocean. Very easy walking distance but can definitely drive 4X4 right up to beach if desired. The host provides beach park pass which is amazing too! The hosts communication was superb! They checked in regularly to see if we needed anything and went above and beyond the night we arrived. We arrived after dark and needed some guidance on entering the beach to drive to the home. So very helpful!! They even called to make sure we made it there safely! The nicest kindness hosts we have ever encountered and we have been to the OBX many times!

Absolutely Amazing in EVERY way!
WOW!! This is a beautiful home, in a beautiful area with an amazing beach with sand dunes and roaming wild horses all around you! No words could do it justice. The house was even more amazing in person than the pics show and we could see more of the ocean than expected. It was so nice that the hot tub was not under the deck too so we could see the stats at night! Horses came either in our yard or down our road EVERY day!! They are beautiful and it is so cool that they are the descendants of the Spanish wild mustangs from the 1500s 😱🐴 The grill, volleyball net, hammock chairs, beach chairs, corn hole, board games and all of the extras made this trip even more fun and convenient! The screen porch with the battery operated candles made for a romantic, peaceful, fun place to eat dinner and it also was a great place to eat lunch as we watched the horses approach! It was also a great place to play games! The house decor is beautiful and comfortable and you will have EVERYTHING you need esp in the kitchen, which means a lot to these foodies! Our trip started off with a first time drive on the beach, and it was fun driving on the sand! We immediately saw horses on the beach 🙌 We then unloaded our stuff at the house to find a very thoughtful and yummy present in the fridge - a charcuterie box with a sweet note that was delish and the snacks took the edge off so we could head to the beach for awhile. What a very nice idea! It was gourmet and so yummy! I own a house at Holden Beach, NC and i grew up going on vacations to Hilton Head. I LOVE them both still, but i think this was my fav vacay yet and this place is AMAZING!! We had so much fun and both my teenagers told me how good i did finding this place! They thanked me every day and i got many hugs, esp when the horses came in our yard for over an hour and they went under the house/through the garage area! If you have teenagers, or know one, then you understand how great this was and felt lol! We made many great family memories from shell collecting, fun beach days, horse watching, relaxing in the hot tub, fishing, grilling our catch as we played cornhole and volleyball, eating delicious candlelit dinners on a beautiful screen porch w a beautiful setting of sand dunes and beach in front of us listening to the ocean waves, and many more! I could go on for days about how great and nice the owners are and how easy they made everything. They left nothing to be desired-unless they want to sell their home!
