The perfect vacation spot to relax on the patio and enjoy a wonderful view. The condo was exactly as pictured. It had everything we needed. Walking to dinner at The Froggy Dog was our favorite. Great bartender and seafood. Oceania's Bistro was a short drive with a nice casual bar and yummy fried shrimp. Gidget’s Pizza takeout was quick and easy. My favorite souvenir shopping was Mill Creek for hats, T-shirts, stickers, and beautiful natural stone jewelry. The cutest bookstore, Buxton Village Books, had a wide selection of books and a cute little section for anyone who loves to dabble in watercolor. We enjoyed the beach at the Avon pier and at old lighthouse beach access for finding shells. The condo is the perfect spot for a day trip to Ocracoke on the ferry. At SmacNally’s we had a view of the lighthouse while enjoying mimosas and seafood. So much to see on the island. My only regret is not having a fresh application of bug spray on when I got out of my car on the ferry leaving Ocracoke. But the patio at the condo, that I will miss the most. We saw great blue herons, great egrets, pelicans, cormorants, and several small birds. We saw mullet fish jumping several times daily. We were lucky to have a windy day to watch the kite surfers and windsurfers on the sound.

Birthday Beach Trip

We had friends visiting from out of state and wanted them to experience our love of OBX! The condo was perfect!! It was clean and spacious with breathtaking views of the sound! Check-in and check-out were great and communication was fantastic! Location is the best! It’s quiet, yet close to anything you need! We highly recommend this condo for your stay in OBX!

From booking throughout stay, host was very friendly, attentive and helpful. Condo was exactly as described and was the perfect respite for our couple’s getaway. View from balcony was breathtaking, especially at sunset. There is an upper loft with bed and bath so would be great for two couples. Building does not have super dense insulation so would not recommend for those with small children as it might disturb your neighbors. We will definitely be back for another visit!

You could not ask for better communication with the owner. Every question/text was answered promptly. The owners have thought of almost everything. There are plenty of games, puzzles, and even several great books for rainy days. The beds were incredibly comfortable (I'd love to know what mattress is in the downstairs bedroom!), and the kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook meals.The walls are fairly thin, so keep that in mind if you have young or noisy children, as conversations and music carry easily.My biggest suggestion is to provide more towels and washcloths. There were only four bath towels/hand towels and four washcloths, which means doing laundry daily. Most VRBO rentals provide extras so guests don't have to spend vacation doing laundry. Only enough detergent for two loads was supplied. The cleaning company could also improve. We found crumbs on the floor and in the large beanbag chair, and there was a lingering urine-like odor near the refrigerator. The shower curtains were icky too, but thankfully, I brought cleaning supplies.This is a well-stocked condo that's great for both short and long stays. Bring extra towels (or plan to do laundry daily) and your own detergent. **Also, check drivenc.gov because Hwy 12 closes due to flooding. We were afraid that we had paid for a rental we couldn't access. I found it uneasy to think we could also get stuck there and not be able to head back north once there.

Response from VrboOwner on 11 August 2026
We appreciate your review and staying with us! We will share the cleaning notes with our cleaning company. As for towels, more can be rented from the cleaning company and their number is on the fridge this also includes beach and luxury towel rentals. Yes the laundry pods from our cleaning service are two to start off the stay. We do try to keep the laundry detergent container above the washer/dryer unit filled. On our last personal visit on the 4th of July there were 50 pods. We run the risk of guests taking surpluses of items so perhaps this happened. We will continue to work to make stays as best as possible! Thank you again!!!! Michelle
