Fabulous Stay for 2 Families

We had an amazing time, and Blue Haven was the perfect set up for our group of 10 including 4 adults and 6 teenagers. The local is ideal, the house was well equipped and communication before and throughout the stay with the owner was excellent. I highly recommend if staying with extended family or a large group!

Nicely appointed home with everything you need in a beach neighborhood. Adults enjoyed the biking around with the kids. The waves were big due to the recent storm but all enjoyed the beach & pool complex. Great place for multigenerations to spend time together!

About the host

Hosted by Mr. Smith

Host profile image
We are a family of 4, myself Clell, Carol my wife, Ian our son and Kendall our daughter. I am in the furniture and home decor industry owning my own business, Carol is an executive IT consultant at Infrastructure Technology her own firm. We reside in Virginia Beach, two hours from Blue Haven and love the Outer Banks, surfing, being on the beach and in the water. I have been coming to this part of the North Banks since 72 (before there was as road or any homes in Corolla) and never get tired of the place.

Why they chose this property

COROLLA LIGHT RESORT IS A WONDERFUL FAMILY ORIENTED COMMUNITY AND WE HAVE TRIED TO THINK OF EVERYTHING TO MAKE YOUR VACATION GREAT! Our home is located in one of the most unique places on the East Coast! We are next to the Currituck Sound where you can see some of the most amazing sunsets anywhere and within a short walk or bike ride you can be at the Ocean, an Historic Hunt Club (the Whalehead Club), Currituck Lighthouse, Historic Corolla Village, shops & restaurants. Also, the sound-front is community property in our neighborhood with almost 1 mile of waterfront to enjoy, we have a great Oceanfront Pool complex with Life Guarded beaches (in season), tennis courts and a great indoor sports complex with Weight and Cardio rooms. And best of all Highway 12 ends about 1.5 miles north of our home where you can drive on the beach and see wild ponies!! (proper 4 wheel drive vehicles only)

What makes this property unique

We are always improving and investing in Blue Haven to make it a great vacation home and second home for us! It is very well equipped, having visited the OBX for many years before buying our home we have tried to think of everything you will want, plus we use the house ourselves in the off season so we have put more into it than the average rental home.. The 3 King Beds are very comfortable and all furniture very nice. The Theater is a great place to catch up on movies plus there is the 50' Smart TV in the great room upstairs and the gourmet equipped Kitchen. There is a great hot tub for 6 that you will want to spend time in daily! One of the best things of all is to sit in the evenings or early mornings on the outside patio under the live oaks and enjoy the sound views and nature with a cocktail or cup of coffee. Take advantage of the community rec center for a workout or take a bike ride or use our Kayaks or SUP's to enjoy the sound. The list goes on and on so come see for yourself!
