Perfect Family Vacation House

Property is very well maintained and close to lot of fun activities, unique eating places, and the beach! House is well supplied with all of the necessities. Heated pool is a plus at the time of year that we were there. Owners were great to communicate with and all check in and check out procedures were laid out and easy. Would definitely highly recommend this area in Kitty Hawk and this property!

2021 Family Vacation from Ohio

Each year my family picks a spot for us to go for a week. This by far was the best. The house was immaculate. Extremely clean with the basics to get you started. Bright, very roomy to accommodate 7 adults and 4 kids. Everyone had space. Outdoor area was perfect. I'd return year after year.

Wonderful Week!

This was a wonderful week to explore and relax on the beach. The location made it easy to both venture to the beach only a couple blocks away as well as the northern beaches on the Outer Banks and the National Seashore to the South. We much appreciated the well stocked garage! Our teenagers felt like professional skim boarders and boogie boarders by the time we left! The sun shades, beach umbrellas and beach chairs were all much appreciated. The spacious outdoor pool and kitchen area were a perfect fit.

Family vacation with kids and grandkids

Overall, the house is great for a large group (with 5 kids that ranged from 2 - 9) with plenty of room. The kitchen was well stocked with all the amenities. The Hot tub was great, clean and well kept. The one suggestion I would make is to have a laminated page of instructions (as reminder for cleaning, trash, check out info) all in one place to include TV instructions. Owners very responsive to questions. Just found it hard to get into VRBO through phone to check emails for responses. I could have done a better job of keeping phone number and email separate so as not to have to go into site from phone. No one brought laptops or Ipads! Thanks for a great stay! Christy and family

Truly a home away from home

This house was so well stocked and clean that it did not seem like a rental property. They truly provided everything, including things that we didn't realize we needed, for a perfect Thanksgiving vacation. We felt very safe and comfortable the entire trip.. We only had 8 guests but the house was well equipped to comfortably sleep many more. We paid extra to have the pool heated and we enjoyed it and hot tub every day. The game room was perfect for family fun. The only negative things that I can think of is the location of the house to the busy main road. It was loud enough to hear when we watched TV at night. I also felt that the house was a bit too far to walk to the beach for little kids or older adults, but it was a really convenient bike ride or drive. We parked at a closed down business, as there is no public beach parking at the closest access. That all said, I would definitely stay here again because of the house accommodations. Thank you for thinking of every detail!

It was definitely a home away from home. Everything I needed to prepare meals was present, from tools to small appliances. We had a pleasant family time stay with a seven month old. A pac n play and a high chair that saved room in our vehicles. My personal favorite was two separate gated areas, pool and backyard. We were able to walk dogs around property off leash for them to do their business. We would absolutely stay again. Hope to book for 2026. I am grateful that they have shared their home. Thanks!

This was our second stay at this property. The house is amazing. They provide so much stuff (dw tabs, laundry detergent, toilet paper, beach towels,beach gear and more) - my husband questioned why i was packing so light. The pool and tiki hut are awesome. The built in seats in the pool are a small feature that we just loved. House is very clean and organized. Owners are great to work with, very responsive to messages. We loved everything about the property.

Fun time for all.

Beautiful home, great amenities, great views. Plenty of room to accomodate all 12 of us and a small dog. House was in walking distance of a public access beach, but was too hot for the grandparents to walk to. The only downside was its closeness to a golf course. My son's car was hit by a stray golf ball. We would definitely recommend this rental to friends and other family.

though the temps were a record breaking highs the AC never skipped a beat, the beach was easily within walking distance but not on 100 degree days. we drove to the beach every day, which was easily done as there are many beach access point with parking close by. the pool was use every day with no issues. the house came well stocked as advertised.

AMAZING

This was our 18th year coming to OBX, the prior house we had rented we stayed in for 12 years so switching this year to this property was a huge deal for us. We are soooo happy we switched. This house was amazing. The pool and outside area were fabulous. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was stocked way beyond what we could have imagined. We loved it so much that we are coming again next year. The owners were great to work with and communicated quickly with questions we had. hiuse was

Family Summer Vaca

We stayed for a week in July and had a fabulous time. Very central location, it’s easy to get anywhere. The golf course being right there is very beautiful. The pool is delightful and fun and the backyard cabana area is perfect. I appreciate the abundance of towels, it was great not to pack any. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Fantastic house!

The house and property are very large, we had a group of 9 people and it was a very comfortable stay. The pool is great and the area around it very welcoming. The open floor plan between the kitchen, dining area and living room really makes it enjoyable and very easy to entertain. It was a short walk to a very nice section of beach (i would say about 7 to 8 mins). There are stores close by but the house is in a relatively quite section of the island in-between strip malls on the main road. The kitchen is stocked with many utensils and appliances (2 air fryers and a kitchen aid mixer to note) which was really great when it came time to make food!

Fun Fun Fun for the whole family!!!

I wanted a place depending on weather conditions that could keep a group of teenagers gamefully occupied. This more than fulfilled that with the pool table, air hockey, foosball, and slot machine as well as numerous board games. Enjoyed the bikes to ride down to the beach nearby as well. When it was time to stay in for a little bbq, enjoyed the pool and hot tub to relax. From beginning to end the owner responded quickly to any questions because truth be told there were no concerns at all! A very enjoyable stay for the whole family from the oldest to the youngest! Definitely a place i would look to stay in again!

Perfect Accommodations for Family Reunion

Our family had high expectations for a fun-filled week in OBX. Not only were our expectations met, they were far surpassed. The accommodations and amenities such as the size of the home, the private bedroom & balconies, the well-stocked kitchen, the game room & swimming pool as well as a garage full of beach equipment provided something for everyone. The entire family expressed how much they enjoyed the accommodations and all of the fun that was had during our stay. If you're looking for a good time at OBX, we would highly recommend this home.

About the host

Hosted by Terry & Suzanne Back

Host profile image
My wife and I purchased the home in 2004 when our children were 9 and 3. We have been so blessed to have made this our second home. We are very excited to share our home with other families and hope they love it as much as we do. I have been a hairdresser for 38 years and have owned my Salon/Spa for 35 years. My wife works with me and our children are also now licensed cosmetologist. hightechsalon.com is our website .

Why they chose this property

We bought this home because of the floor plan, lots of room and lots to do in and out of the home. We love to entertain that is why we built the 3 story staircase so everyone would have easy access to the pool area and their bedrooms. We also built the awesome outdoor kitchen to grill and just relax by the pool.

What makes this property unique

When we were searching to purchase a home in the Outer Banks, we looked at many. This house felt like a home where all the others felt like rentals. We strive to create a vacation that has most of the amenities that feel like home! We are located on the first hole of Seascape Golf Course. We offer a private pool and hot tub area. There is lots of room for larger families.
