Very comfortable home. Didn’t appear that the home was cleaned well when we checked in. One of the shower head and handles were broken. Had to tighten the other one to keep water from spraying all over the walls.

We Loved our house and everything about it! We had a slight hickup upon arriving; that was taken care of quickly and efficiently by the home owners. The location is very close to a public beach access. I would absolute book this house again.

Nice

The cottage was overall very clean. It was a little dated. The biggest thing that I had was there is hardly any parking can’t even hardly turn your car around, but the owner was very responsive. Very nice and very easy to deal with overall the cottages very nice and for the price I would stay there again.

Holiday Getaway

We booked this stay to come celebrate a wedding of friends, but also have a personal getaway for ourselves. The house is exactly how its pictured. It is conveniently located near the beach without being up on the water. There are many dining, shopping and entertainment options outside the house, but honestly, not needed. The house offers some board games, TV in every room and beautiful views from 3 separate patios. We will definitely be booking again!

Good value for off-season rental

Great value for our stay. Split level (3) house with 2 full bedrooms and multiple sofabeds in 2 other open areas. New air conditioning/heater wall units. Good LED TVs and Spectrum internet. Good location within 100 yards of Nags Head beach access. Within walking distance of Jeannette's pier. In addition to our own toilet paper, paper towels, and trash bags (as stated in their description), we bought our own dish soap, bath soap, and dobie pads for dishwashing. Liquid soap provided was so-so. Nonetheless, we give our stay 5 stars.

Liked: Communication, location
Communication with owner was great, however house could use some serious repair. Looks like there is water damage on the walls, wall panels are bowing. Bed was too soft for our comfort. Did not feel comfortable using grill because it is bolted to the deck and was not cleaned. Was worried about grill being so close to the house due to fire hazard.

Feels like a home. It is outdated as others have said but i actually love that. We had 5 adults and 3 children. Everyone had plenty of space. Short walk to beach. Back porch is pretty secluded. The wildlife reserve behind the home keeps it private.this was our second stay. Would stay again

This is the third year in a row that we have stayed here. Lots of space for everyone to spread out and three showers to choose from when you come in from the beach. The house is at the end of the road so it is very private. It’s a quick walk to the beach and it was never too crowded at our access point. There are piers 1 mile to the north and south. The location is close to everything but still manages to feel remote.
