Very nice stay

We really enjoyed staying in the Bowman Cottage. It was a short 5 minute walk to the beach, very clean, kitchen well stocked with what we needed to make our meals, comfortable beds, a new gas grill and a very well maintained home overall. We had a wonderful week and would stay again!

VACATION STAY WAS PERFECT!

Convenient to the beach, felt like home not some musty beach house and had plenty of space for 7 people. This is the second year in a row we have stayed at The Bowmans VRBO and we will stay again. Plenty of room, places to park and wuiet street was key!

A Delightful Week at the Bowman

For a beach vacation "The Bowman" has it all: 4 bedrooms split by the living room, a large central great room, a good kitchen and most importantly location! Did I mention location? Its only a 5-minute walk to the beach! The place is super clean and the host is very responsive. Five stars all around.

Third time renting this property

We have rented this home 3 time over the past 4 years. Communication with the owner is quick and responsive. Great location for the price! We love that we can have the adults on one side of the house and the teens on the other.

First OBX trip

Great property! Comfortable and clean and better than the pics! Short walk (like 2 minutes!) to the beach. Comfy beds, a lot of great space for the 5 of us (hubs and I and kids ages 20, 19 & 16) and GREAT location for shopping and attractions. Will definitely look to book here again. This place made our first trip to the OBX one well not forget. The owner was so communicative and responded to any and all questions super fast. Check in and out were a breeze.

OBX 2022

House was in a great location less than 2 blocks from the beach and on a quiet road parallel to the main road. It had 2 separate thermostats for each side of the house plus the two bathrooms were ideally located on each of the house between the bedrooms. The only issue we had was the refrigerator wasn’t turned on when we arrived so we had to keep all our food in the cooler until morning. That may have been by accident but it wasn’t a big deal considering we had a large cooler with all our food on ice

Bowman Vacation

The location was great. We all enjoyed our stay, but there were a few issues. The vents in the back master bedroom didnt work very well so the room was very warm I was forced to put the spare mattresses in the living room and some of us had to sleep on the floor There was sme construction going on next to the house and I was awakened at 7am almost every morning. The heavy equipment being used actually made the house shake so there was no sleeping in for any of us. I had inquired about the house entrance because my sister uses a walker, and was told that there were only 5 or six steps when in fact there were twice that many, making it difficult for her to enter and exit so she only left the house once during our stay. Also, the grass was quite tall in the yard so I! was very hesitant about my grandchildren playing outside.

Week-long getaway

This is our second summer that we've traveled to OBX for our family vacation. The Bowman Cottage was perfect. The large living room and open kitchen made it great for family time and gathering. The location was ideal for accessing the beach (short walk) and visiting local attractions. We would stay here again!

Great place to stay

staying at the Bowmans cottage was more than you could ask for! It exceeded all expectations. The kitchen was absolutely adorable and made me want to bake as if I wasn’t on vacation LOL. It was a very short walk to the beach, which we had three children with us so that was very helpful! The location is perfect as far as restaurants or any entertainment goes. Sarah was very friendly and quick to respond with any questions we had! Would love to stay again!!

Relaxing week at the beach

We had a really nice week at the beach partly due to the comfort and location of the house! It was a quick and easy walk to the beach, clean and comfortable, stocked with everything we needed to be comfortable and Sarah was a great host with very quick communication. If we come back next summer we will 100% be staying here again. Thank you, Sarah!
