Lots of room for everyone to come together or stay apart. Was a bit of a walk to/from the beach. The house is located between 2 public accesses. Was a good house overall though. ##### Patty E. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tom Y. 2 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Big house in a quiet area Plenty of bedrooms and open space. Kitchen is stocked with plenty of dishes and cookware. The furniture is very comfortable, and there were several good sized TVs. The decks are all disconnected, amd the pool is on the smaller side, but still big enough for several people to have a good time. Access to the beach was close, and the location was nice and quiet. ##### Tom Y. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Juana F. 10 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family beach week The house was perfect for me and my grown children and their families. Plenty of space to spread out as well as gather together. The pool table was a hit. The proximity of the pool and hot tub was also good for small groups to spend time. Beach access is easy with no stairs at either of the 2 very close access points. We've vacationed in the Nags Head area for the past 30 years. As my 5 children have grown to adulthood and started families, our house requirements have changed. This was the first year that I didn't rent from the same local real estate company due to availability. I'm glad I found this house on VRBO, and will check again next year. ##### Juana F.

The privacy, beautiful view, and easy walk to the beach were additional pluses. The back decks and pool area were very private.

There are old dirty sofas just put in hallways and the master instead of the dump. The master closet was full of broken stuff. The housr was dirty and needs painting.The living room chairs were so broken down they were unusable. I had to clean toilets and pool area mysrlf. The grill and outdoor shower area are were covered in green mildee. Trash was left in carport grom previous renters a it smelled terribe. The house cutter is also disconnected and under the car port. I would not rent this house again and was embarrassed that i rented for the week for my family. ##### Edna S. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 ---
