Quaint and Quiet and Comfortable

We loved our second stay at the "Welcome Back" house as much as we enjoyed the first time. Robbi is a wonderfully attentive and gracious host, and she responds incredibly promptly to all our queries. The house is well stocked with anything the guests may need, and it's cozy and comfortable. The location is great - close to the beach and convenient restaurants while it's away from any hustle and bustle. Our stay was wonderful.

The home was clean and fully stocked with everything you needed. Lorri was in contact with us and emailed information about what we would need to bring, local linen suppliers and rental places. My 3, 11, and 17 year old had a blast with the boogie boards. The porch swing was my favorite along with the outdoor shower! The homeowner is fantastic and we can wait to come back!

First Family Trip

This was the first time we were all able to go on a trip together and this was the perfect place for it. We brought our three dogs, who LOVED the deck and we really appreciated the enclosed area for them to have their bathroom breaks. The whole house very thoughtfully laid out, and just perfect for the whole family! We can’t wait to return in the future!

Great Vacation

This home had plenty of space for two families. We liked the 2 floor plan for the kids to play upstairs and watch movies at night and give the parents some adult space. A pull in car port for each family was nice. The kids loved the vacation. It was a less crowded beach then what we usually have in OBX. If we come back down with another family we would definitely stay here again!

Great Trip!

The trip to 'Welcome Back 'was excellent! The house was clean, spacious, and well equipped. The beach is amazing and the kids had a blast spending all day in the warm waters. We spent a few mornings and evenings relaxing on the upper deck enjoying the sea breeze. Lori was an excellent host and the open communication took the fear out of travelling during these times. Lori's personal touches made us feel welcomed and we would definitely be back.

Cozy cottage, we loved staying here

The "Welcome Back" was immaculately clean with everything you need right there. The kitchen is organized and very well stocked, linens provided. I felt as if I were staying with a friend for the weekend, NOT a rental property. It is decorated beautifully and makes you feel at home. We loved it and had a beautiful week making memories in the OBX. Thank you Lorrie!

Great Beach House

The house was perfect for our family vacation. It was clean, well stocked, and Lorri was always prompt to respond with any questions we had. The porch and decks were amazing! We sat outside almost every day. The only minor detail that would have been a nice addition is to have a TV in each bedroom. The location was great too, being about a half hour or so from either the Nags Head or Avon areas in case we wanted to venture north or south.

Wonderful Stay!

We really enjoyed our stay! Perfect sized home, plenty of amenities, everything you need. Screened porch is great. Outdoor shower is wonderful coming off the beach. My daughter really enjoyed the porch swing. Plenty of nearby restaurants, markets and shopping. Sadly, the closest ORV ramp (#23) is closed Apr-Oct (seasonal). In the summer, the nearest ORV ramp (#25) is a few more miles southbound. Highly recommend for small family or group!

Absolutely beautiful, spotless, comfortable home! We had an amazing week just a short walk to beach. Everything you could need for fun vacation fully stocked kitchen, grill, games, deck with awesome views. Our host Lori was incredible! She is responsive to questions, provided lots of info on the area since it was our first time to OBX and even greeted us when we arrived.
