Sandie's place was advertised and better than we expected. It is comfortable, clean, and very cozy. It has everything that we needed for our beach vacation including beach chairs and an umbrella. The outdoor shower is a dream! Sandie's communication was excellent and we appreciated the walk through at check in. We highly recommend staying here and are hopeful to return many times.

We had a wonderful first visit to OBX staying in this cozy cottage. Our host, Sandy, was very friendly and informative. The place was decorated with beautiful things, plants and artful vignettes everywhere you looked. She is a talented decorator! It was well stocked and very clean. My dog loved it, too! The beach was a very short walk away and there were some nice people that we met. We recommend this rental very highly and hope to return soon.

What a cozy cottage

I loved the location of this cute cottage. It was close to the beach and I loved the outside patio area as well. The hospitality was the best we have ever had. This is a great location for a quiet getaway.

This quaint little cottage is prefect with enough room for four people and a great living area and open kitchen. The outside area is prefect for hanging out with a shaded area as well as an open area to sit outside comfortably. The host was great and had muffins waiting for us and was immediately responsive with any questions or requests we had. You can walk a short distance to a great beach access and there are plenty of great restaurants close by. This place is located in a quiet side road that’s off the main drag so no traffic and no noise at all. We are 100% staying here and with a host that’s local and available to answer questions, it is super convenient. The house also has a lot of history and despite its age the owner has put a lot into restoring and update it.

I LOVE THIS PLACE, AND THE HOST IS WONDERFUL! Sandy met us at check-in and showed us everything about the house. The place does the pictures justice and more. She provided treats for the dog, lotions & soaps & sunscreen for my wife and I, coffee for everyone. I really like this place and highly recommend it.
