The house was exactly as listed so no surprises. It was clean on check-in. The access code didn’t work upon arrival, however I called Resort Realty and they were able to reset the code over the phone. The customer service was always courteous and fast when I needed to contact them. The pool had a lot of sand in the bottom indicating that it hadn’t been cleaned, but that wasn’t bothersome for us - it was still a favorite hang out spot and was very refreshing on the hot days of the week! My only concern was the lack of cooking utensils - there weren’t any spatulas and the knives in the home were very dull which was frustrating for meal preparation. Overall we would definitely stay at this property again.

Thank you for the nice review. The size and privacy of the lot, the proximity to the beach and Duck with the quietness of Southern Shores is what sold us on the property. Look forward to having you again..
