About this property

What do you look for in an ideal vacation spot?

A lovely home, tastefully decorated with upscale furnishings?
A well-equipped home, stocked with your needs in mind?
A family-friendly home, supplied for fun indoors & out?
A centrally-located home, near the beach, shops, restaurants, historic & natural attractions?

You've found it! Let yourself be Swept Away by this terrific home, loaded w/ comforts & amenities. Relax on 2 floors of wrap-around decking, including 2nd level porch swing and top level hot tub. Lounge on Tommy Bahama furniture & beds made w/ cotton sheets. Enjoy a quiet book or lively game in the ship's watch loft. Be surrounded by sunny skies and partial ocean views, thanks to plentiful windows & an open floor plan.

Just a short walk to the beach - we've supplied a beach cart, chairs, boogie boards & sand toys. At Monteray Shores Clubhouse enjoy the pool, playground, tennis courts, bike & kayak rental, sound fishing/crabbing off the pier, fitness center & kids' activities. We're just steps away from some of the Outer Banks' finest shops & restaurants. You'll love it here!

Added Bonus: We offer Early Arrival at no additional cost! This is unusual for the northern beaches, where almost every other home has a 4pm check-in. There is one main road in and out of the area -- as it gets closer to that 4pm arrival, all that traffic can really back up. Our earlier check-in allows you to beat most of the traffic crossing onto the island and up the coast.
We hope you will enjoy this extra benefit : )

Updates: We've owned this home since 2008 and every year we make repairs, upgrades and additions to what we offer. A few major changes recently include: in 2014 we had the entire exterior of the house painted, added flat-screen tv's in the living area and master bedrooms, and upgraded the entry with "wood" tile flooring. In 2015, we replaced all carpeting throughout the house, added a new washer & dryer and replaced the upper floor HVAC unit.

Corolla Stay

House is in need of maintenance inside and out. Loose bannister in second floor dangerous. Toilets slow to fill. Refrigerator slow to cool. Range with one eye not working at all. Upstairs air out on arrival, contacted owner and repairman did come next day. Outside grounds with downed tree limbs and brush. Sumacs poison ivy has overtaken trees and shrubs on ground, along shrubs in walk ways and even up trees touching upper deck, also very dangerous had someone in our group been sensitive to the aroma that poison ivy ir sumac in this case gives off. Luckily nobody in our group that sensitive but some truly are. Would not stay in this home again. We made the best of it and still enjoyed our trip.

Nice location!

Having stayed in this neighborhood previously we knew we had a good location - especially for the cost. The earlier check-in time was a BIG plus. The house had a nice Hot tub, nice views, good layout and our family enjoyed our stay here. The house cleaning good be just a little better, window panes were dirty in dining room and a window treatment is missing here also. We also noticed some of the walls around the doors could use painting and or cleaned. The house came with many beach chairs, boogie boards and toys which was a plus. The beach carts could use some help, rust, etc but overall very nice to have beach items if you need them. The outside could use some TLC, with trees and shrubs against the home and the Deck really needs some attention, rough in places and needing some Deck over, or other treatment. Again, our trip was about Family and this home worked just fine. Thank you.

Overall Bad Experience

We loved the location of this property and the layout worked well for our family. That being said, the property was not as upkept as we had hoped. We had an AC situation that was quickly rectified by the owner. The door to the deck from the master was damaged and needing replacement. There was a terrible smell noted on day one that continued to get worse in the master bedroom. On day three we came back to the house after a long day to discover Maggots in the master bath coming from around the tub. The exterminator was called in but unfortunately there was not much he could do to remedy the situation except spray for the maggots. A dead animal was decaying behind the wall and the wall would need to be cut open and new drywall added. None of which could be done with us staying there. The owner did offer us a $500 credit for the inconvenience, but it was rather disgusting to have to sleep in a room with that odor and knowing what was behind the bathroom door. It is understandable that sometimes things happen that the owner isn't aware of, however we lost time with family and friends while dealing with this situation on top of having to spend more than half our time living with the smell of death on the living level. This was not an experience I care to repeat.

About the host

Why they chose this property

We love Corolla and have vacationed in this area since 1996. Corolla beaches offer a quiet beauty that we have not seen in many other places. The beach is small, but so is the community, so it never seems too crowded & you’re always near the water.

The Monteray Shores community has so much to offer and our guests receive complimentary access to the Clubhouse Fitness Center, large pool plus kiddie pool, sound-front Sunset Pier, tennis courts, terrific playgrounds and more.

We really feel that our house is perfectly located. Only a short, 8-10 min walk to the beach. Being at the southern end of Monteray Shores, we are super close to many shops & amazing restaurants. Teens also appreciate being able to walk on their own to Dairy Queen or mini-golf.

What makes this property unique

Our home has a rock & roll history! It was formerly owned by Dave Grohl - yes, THAT Dave Grohl - and even though we've never met him : ( we like to wonder who may have visited here over the years!
