The perfect vacation place

This house is beyond cute and so lovely. The host is so very generous with amenities, there is coffee and other cooking supplies. I am amazed at the cleanliness and overall decor, it’s so cozy. The fenced in backyard is perfect for dogs or kids (and adults too). The grass is so well kept you can walk around barefoot. There are lovely flowers all around the property. It’s close to the beach and just about anything else you may need, including restaurants and ice cream. This is the second year we have stayed here and we hope to book it again next year. I highly recommend this lovely house.

Wonderful Family Getaway

My family really enjoyed our time here! The inside is cozy, and had everything we needed for a family of four (with two younger kids) to feel comfortable. Outside, we really enjoyed sitting on the patio to enjoy the pond and cool sea breeze. The turtles were a lot of fun, and after spending each day at the beach the outside shower was indispensable. Overall, it was a great place for our first OBX vacation.

Better Than Expected...

We honestly have nothing bad to say about Parrots Perch. From the moment we walked in we did not want to leave. The cottage is so warm and welcoming. Tastefully decorated and well stocked with items you may have forgot. Very short walk to the beach and so convenient to stores and restaurants. The real allure is the turtles and other wildlife. As soon as someone walks out on the deck the turtles come swimming, looking for food. The outdoor space is as pleasing as the inside. Our Dachshund absolutely had a blast. Pretty sure he had the best vacation ever. Truly a slice of paradise. So blessed to have had the opportunity to spend a week at this gem. Thanks for sharing!!!

About the host

Hosted by Teresa Shand

We are Mike and Debbie both from Smithfield, VA and have vacationed and enjoyed the Outer Banks for many years.
So after renting 'Parrots Perch' when it came up for sale we knew we wanted it to become our second home.

Why they chose this property

Its location and single story 'Old Nags Head' cottage style fits our needs perfectly. The grass with NO sand cactus in the large back yard for pets and children was an added plus!! The deck off the kitchen allows quiet reflections while watching the area wild life enjoying the neighboring pond.
