About this property
Larger first floor Mirage Condo, Take a Look! Pet Friendly too. Sat to Sat
Our front door opens into a large Great Room with comfortable leather furniture, including a massage recliner. The dining area has a 4x8 ft. Granite topped dining room table with ample seating for 8+, and a bar with seating for 4 where you can interact with whom or whatever is going on in the kitchen. The dining area gives access to our large covered deck where you can view the Currituck Lighthouse, watch family members play tennis or carry food down a few steps to an outdoor stainless steel grill. (Last year Osprey built a nest on one of the overhead lights of the Tennis Court. Let's hope they do it again this year.) The kitchen is fully equipped and well stocked with everything needed to fix either quick or gourmet meals. As you turn into the hallway, the laundry area is hidden behind louver doors. Ahead to the right is the spacious Master bedroom, we call it the Magnolia room, with a Smart TV, a Jacuzzi tub, double vanities, separate room for shower and commode. The Master also has a small private deck. Next is the Ivy room decorated in calming shades of green and is home to the largest of the Flat Screen TV’s. Past the two-room hall bathroom is the Lighthouse room where you will find two twin beds set up as a Day Bed with a pull out Trundle making this an ideal bedroom for either children or adults. As you walk through the condo, you may not notice the subtle changes that also make this home Wheelchair Accessible and Handicap Friendly.

This is our third time staying at this condo. We love the central location to historic corolla village and Tim Buck II and Food Lion as well as its proximity to the fitness center. Eileen, our host, host is always responsive if we have a question. The condo is very spacious and lives up to its name as the comfort zone.
Had an incredible stay. Eilene was so easy to talk with and very caring down to the smallest details. There was a small issue thru no fault of her own but she took such care and initiative and handled it quickly and communicatively! Hoping to come back again very soon. Also the walk to the beach was easy, the beach area itself was stunning and we loved the amenities that came with our stay. My kids and I loved our time here very much! Thank you for such a warm hospitable stay!
Everything we needed. Central location to our OBX needs and wants. Property was nice and the trolley bus pick up/drop off was so convenient for our family.
Myself and 2 kids stayed at the property. It was nice that we all had our own space. If you stay in season, the convenience of the Corolla Light Trolley is great!
Condo is well kept and spacious. Had all of the things we needed and then some. Nice outdoor deck. Close to shopping and restaurants. Easy access to the beach and also a short drive to take the 4x4 beach access road to go look for the wild horses.
Condo was very clean upon arrival. It was also very close to restaurants. We were able to watch Pickle Ball games as the deck faces the courts. We enjoyed our stay.
The condo was beautiful, and very much as presented on the VERBO listing. Had a few minor issues crop up which Eilene was very gracious in handling in a very timely manner. Only negative was the young family in the unit above us.
With three young children, the inevitable sounds of running feet got to be a little much at times, but that is not something that can be controlled.
We would definitely consider renting with Eilene again.
Our stay was enjoyable and fun! This is our second time staying in Eilene’s place! We enjoyed it just as much as the first time!
The space is great and a gem of a space as it’s a 1st floor rental!
We had a great time and hope to return soon! Thank you again!! Until next time,
The Remick Family
This condo was everything we wanted and needed. Spacious, clean, well cared for, and accessible to everything either by car, waking or trolley. 100% will be back. Communication with owner was smooth and we were very happy with our choice to stay here. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
Excellent accommodations!! It was like a home away from home! Nice big kitchen! Eilene had all the necessities and more. She was easy to work with, provided great tips and recommendations that I asked for and more!!! We had a blast! We would highly recommend Eilene’s place! There is a complimentary trolley that takes you to the beach and pools! My daughter loved all the movies! My husband and daughter enjoyed her massage chair, especially after the long trip!! We will definitely be back again! It was our 1st time to the outer banks and this area was nice because it was less built up than other areas of the outer banks!
Thanks again Eilene!!!

This summer was our second time as guests at this property. The owner was accessible and responsive if we had questions. She provided a good deal of information about the area and activities during our stay. The condo was clean, conveniently located and in all respects as advertised. We have already reserved our two weeks for next summer.
We just got back from Corolla and had an amazing stay. We drove a long way from CT and the massage chair was perfect start to the vacation. Eilene was very responsive and sent very detailed information about the property and surrounding area before our stay. The condo was situated right near the Sports Center, close to the Soundview pool, and had pickle ball courts right off the back porch that my kids enjoyed. The beach was a few blocks walk through a path behind the condo complex. And the best part is you can bring your dog on the beach! Eilene also has a very large dog crate and dog bowls in the condo which was helpful. There is a trolley to take you to the larger pool along the beach. Down the road a short drive is the Corolla 4x4 beach with wild horses, the lighthouse, and a beautiful park with a wildlife center. If you have a 4WD vehicle, definitely drive the beach - there is no charge. We did ok with our AWD SUV by turning off traction control, but with any vehicle make sure you take the air out of your tires to 20 Psi at the free air down and air up stations, drive slow (15 mph), and don’t park on the beach or you can get fined. We were lucky and saw about 8 horses about a mile down the beach. For food the kitchen is stocked with stuff to prepare food, but definitely go to Duck Donuts for the kids (order online to avoid an hour wait), get a seafood boil from Outer Banks Boil Company, and check out Mama Easley’s and Uncle Ike’s - all were family friendly. We can’t wait to plan our next trip to OBX.
This home was exactly as described. When choosing a vacation home my number one criteria is cleanliness and this home was. Convenient location with many activities for all. We enjoyed breakfast on the back porch watching a daily pickle match. The massage chair was an added bonus. If I didn’t enjoy the beach so much I never would have left the condo!
Love this condo! Pictures do NOT do it justice! The area is beautiful and beach was awesome! The owner is the sweetest and a great communicator! We loved our vacation!
We really enjoyed our stay in this Mirage condominium. Location was so convenient to the Sports Center, Nature Trail on the sound, next to the Pickle ball courts. Need to walk about two blocks to the beach on a path that goes through the woods and then is paved to the Sturgeon beach access. There was a cart to roll the beach chairs and umbrellas to the ocean, and lots of beach toys.
The home had a full kitchen with everything needed to prepare a home cooked meal. There were many TV's and many DVD's of old movies and books about shells and other things related to the Corolla experience. There was a massage chair for all to enjoy.
The home is furnished with interesting art, lighthouses and wild horse themes.
We stayed wit three adults but six people could be very comfortable in the home. Highly recomend!
We had a wonderful stay during our spring break. The condo was spacious, clean, good distance from the beach and sound, and quiet. Our girls and dog had a blast at the beach. It was also nice to have some chairs, umbrella, and beach toys already on hand to not have to travel with. And Eileen was very sweet upon our arrival.
This was our second time renting from Eilene. Her condo was clean and well appointed - we especially enjoyed the well stocked kitchen as well as the crate for our dog! The location is fabulous, easy walk to beach and sound. Communication with Eilene was excellent, she promptly answered the few questions we had. Highly recommend!! Hope to come back next year!
Condo was old fashioned but clean. We enjoyed the location and the Corolla light community. We loved that we could bring our dogs. Patio furniture outside needed to be wiped down so you could enjoy it out on the patio. Kitchen was very well stocked.
