Abundant space in house, top notch gas stove and oven. Fenced in backyard great for dogs. Dock provided easy access to sound for kayaking. Chairs and cooler perfect for day on the beach. Lastly, host super helpful and promptly responsive.

Great view and water access

We had a really nice trip to this property in September. The view from the deck was really beautiful, and we took advantage of the water access with kayaks. We also appreciated that the dog friendly yard was clean and tidy.

Lovely views

The house has amazing views of the sound, both through the large windows and from the large deck. It's a 2 minute drive to Publix for all of your food needs. The beds and large sectional couch are all very comfortable. This is a great place for groups or families to stay and relax.

Beautiful home on the Soundside of Kill Devil Hills

Beautiful and clean home, as pictured. My son and his family, and I, enjoyed a wonderful stay at this incredible property. We did a lot of biking, boating, paddle boarding, and visits to the beach. The owner was extremely responsive to questions, and I would highly recommend this property. I can't wait to go back in the spring!.

Nice view, location & neighbors

It’s an older beach house with a lot of updates. Comfortable, attractive and well equipped. Easy check-in. Super responsive host. We used the bicycles and enjoyed the bike trails. Best part is probably the deck and water view. Beds are very firm.

Wonderful property in a great location

We had such a good time at this house. The peer is so fun and you are super close to the beach as well. The house was well stocked and had tons of things for fun and entertainment. Would recommend and would certainly stay again. I would only recommend bringing extra towels and blankets. There are only one bath towel per quest and not many extra blankets if you are cold natured.

Excellent Experience

Our stay at Cedarwood was outstanding! The home is exactly as pictured and very comfortable. Everything we needed and more was provided. We took the beach chairs and umbrella to the beach one day but used the beach chairs on the private dock the rest of the time. It was actually better than the beach. There is a nice breeze and some shade. The host answered our questions promptly and provided recommendations for restaurants. Mahi Mahi Island Grill is fantastic! The neighborhood was very pleasant and is centrally located to enjoy all the activities OBX has to offer.

Gorgeous Retreat

This was our first trip to the OBX and we could not have been any more pleased with this home. It was exactly as described, but actually being able to experience it was an added and unexpected bonus. Having a fenced in back yard for our dogs to freely run was great and being able to walk out to see the water and sunsets on the dock was magical. We enjoyed being able to kayak and only wish he had more time to take advantage of all that was available for guests to use (bikes, horseshoe, etc …). Areca’s hospitality was like no other VRBO host, as she checked in to ensure we made it to the house OK and was responsive when I reached out to her. We are so looking forward to visiting again but for a longer period of time!

Cute, quiet property on the water

We really enjoyed our recent stay at this property. The location was great for us, being right on the water but not on the ocean/beach, which meant it was nice and quiet with pretty views and sunsets with lots of birds to watch. A key highlight is the expansive deck which looks over the sound; the dining area shared the great views, and was a nice spot to have dinner. The dock (not shown in some of the pictures) would be a great spot to tie up a boat or launch a kayak; sadly, time and weather did not allow that this trip (although we'd love to come back and try again in the future). Communication was prompt and friendly prior to our arrival, and upon arrival we found the house to be clean and match well to the pictures (with the caveat of some outdoor pictures that pre-date some improvements there). The kitchen is very well equipped, and would be a good place to do some cooking if you were so inclined. The bedrooms all have nice, firm foam mattresses. Note that if you have trouble with stairs this may not be a great place for you (although that's likely true of most houses in the area). The deck was probably our favorite spot to hang out and just watch the birds and any activity on the water (although we would recommend wearing footwear on the deck -- as is typical along the coast, the wood is very weathered). Overall, we had a great stay, even though it was much shorter than we would have liked. We definitely hope to be back in the future!

Great Location

The house was nice and big. The kayak was great to have and was enjoyed. The 4 TVs worked great and streaming was a breeze. The neighbors were nice. Our dogs barked at each other, sniffed, and ran the fence line together. They even offered to help with our dog when my mother had a medical event while there. The AC works amazing and there are powerful ceiling fans in the bedrooms. They have an ice maker and beach chairs. I was not a fan of the upstairs beds. It says queen but they definitely seemed like a full. It just wasnt enough room for us to sleep so we slept in separate beds unfortunately. They were also very firm. My husband liked it but i was not a fan. We gave the downstairs room to my elderly mother but unfortunately she could not get into the bed by herself because it is very high. The steps under the house also do not have a handrail halfway up so she could not enter that way. Also bring paper towels because they had none and only had one hand towel that i found. And we ran out of trash bags. We were left 2. Overall the place was nice it just wasnt the place for us due to comfortability. I stay at a lot of vrbos and so im picky, Ha! But thats why i still gave 5 stars because it would still be great for other families.

Very comfortable living room and beds, dock was great to fish from but water is shallow so fishing didn’t result in anything but goldfish size fish. Kitchen is super tiny for cooking. Communication with manager was excellent at resolving issues. Fenced yard was nice for dog. Would be nice to have umbrellas for deck. The suns super hot with no shade. Nice chairs and table for deck. Sunsets are great. Neighborhood is nice to walk around. Need more blankets for beds. A thin bedspread and sheet is all that was provided. Lots of stairs by carport to bring luggage up. Not easy since staircase is narrow. Good house for rental comfort.

We had never visited OBX before and felt so lucky to have found this great home! The location was so central to everything and was an easy drive to explore up and down the Banks. Being on the bay side, allowed us to enjoy coffee and listen to birds every morning on the pier. Yet the beach was an easy 4-5 min drive when we wanted to have the ocean. Great host and such a clean property. We traveled with dogs, and I am used to homes not being as polished when pets are allowed. You would never know this host allowed dogs, except for the nice gesture of dog bowls waiting for us. The supplied kayaks were well used by our group as wel. 100% will stay here again.

Inside was very clean, well kept and kitchen fully stocked with dishes, pots/pans but left no pantry room for our groceries except on counters. All 3 beds had very firm mattresses. Lots of books and games for families to use. Host was very responsive and friendly. Listing identified a pool but it was in another neighborhood a few miles away so we didn’t bother. Deck, windows, and stairs were covered in spiderwebs. We knocked them down the first night but they were all back by morning so we gave up. Overall it was a pleasant stay as we spent more time at the beach and engaging in area activities more than being at the house.
