Thanksgiving with Family

The house was as described and perfect. This home is absolutely beautiful. Right on the beach and would highly recommend this property. Plenty of room for the my entire family. The Property management company was amazing on their communication. The Location, location, location. Parents stay less than 3 miles across the bridge. They did not have to travel to Raleigh as we did in the past. The home was perfect. Our grown children and spouses thoroughly enjoyed walking the beach each morning. Wonderful experience for all of us. BTS

Beautiful location and beach, but home needs work.

I would love to simply state this was a 5 star stay; however, with the challenges with the home, it simply was not the case. Starting with the positives, the location and beach are perfect, particularly since we went in September when the crowds were gone. We were literally the only ones on the beach within a half of a mile. The home itself is set up quite nicely, particularly with the elevator. I rented the home so my elderly parents could enjoy it. As such, the elevator was a must and it worked perfectly. The home is well stocked with appliances and such. The rooms were spacious, quiet and comfortable. Although there were only 5 of us, the home could comfortably fit several more. Now for the challenges that we found simply to be unacceptable. To begin, we walked in to find several pots sitting around the living room with a note stating that if we find more leaks, to please place another pot under them. There were many, including dripping on the stairs on the first floor, on the couch in the living room, and above the pots already positioned. The water would splash out of the pots, creating slip hazards, particularly on the stairs. The water was from condensation from the AC system and was literally dripping through the wood ceiling and it was obvious it has been doing it for quite some time due to black discoloration on the wood. Cannot help but to think there would be mold in the ceiling. But the fact that we had to spend our vacation chasing leaks and changing out pots of water is far from ideal. Secondly, the home has mice. We saw numerous mouse traps throughout the home but it became evident when we opened the closet to the ocean facing guest bedroom on the 2nd floor and found bits of foam all over the floor that mice had obviously chewed off of the pipe insulation passing through the closet. Before I let my parents move in we had to vacuum up the closet. In addition, at night, you could hear the mice scampering through the walls and ceiling. Both my wife and my mom were kept awake by it. Lastly, the home itself needs work. The wear and tear on the home is quite obvious, particularly with the deck. The deck on the 3rd floor front of home is so rotten it has holes in it. Definitely not safe, particularly if you had small children. Overall, it was a disappointment for obvious reasons. With proper maintenance, the home could be beautiful once again though. We would not rent again until proof of this happened.

Could have been amazing, but...

We felt like the property managers took us for granted. At this price point, a property should be nearly perfect. When we arrived, the unit was clean, but the beach-facing windows (especially on the main level) were covered in salt spray. We get its on the beach, but arriving promptly at check-in and seeing it like this was a disappointment. We ended up using the hose on the deck and cleaned the windows ourselves (the view really is grand). Multiple broken light fixtures/burned out bulbs, rotten fruit left in the breakfast nook, standing water in empty plant pots, overgrown weeds in plant beds, and rusted/dilapidated trash can on the deck all took away from a high-end experience. And despite the strange (and highly detailed) requirement to strip linens and put them special bags...there were no special bags available. We do NOT fault the property owners for any of this, rather the property managers. Interestingly though, when I asked the property managers how to contact the owners (so we could let the owners know the managers were failing them)...they would not provide contact info. Instead, they relayed we should leave the feedback with them - so here it is. Phenomenal location/beach; however, if you're going to stay at a property in this price range, then I recommend you look elsewhere.

Lovely Stay

This was a fantastic property for our group of 9 adults. Beautiful home! Plenty of sleeping space and a large common area with sunrise to sunset views right on the ocean. We plan to make this an annual gathering.
