Best guests ever! Thank you for taking the time to post a review. Having the beach close is one of our favorite perks about the location. You can see the beach access from our front door. It's a 3-minute walk or a little less than a quarter mile. You are welcome back anytime. Thank you for everything!
A very well located spot, 1/2 way between Corolla (Wild Horse Tours) and riding on the beach in Cape Hatteras (Equine Adventures ). Quiet street, peaceful deck, clean clean clean, walk to the beach or various fun places to visit on route 12. Great showers, comfortable beds. Loved every moment!

The house was exactly as described, very clean and well maintained. You can tell the host puts a lot of thought and love into this home. While we didn’t use the beach gear there were beach chairs and boogie boards for all to use if needed. The host was very easy to reach and checked in with us before and during our stay, which we appreciated. The beds were comfortable and we had everything needed for a great stay. Will definitely book here again. We also enjoyed the close proximity for walking to The Spot for ice cream!

I love walking to The Spot to get ice cream too :) Thank you for taking the time to post such a nice review. I appreciated your kindness and great communication. You are welcome back anytime. Thank you for everything!
This home was clean and quite comfortable. It is a beautiful, well kept home that makes you feel at home as soon as you enter. Modern and with a great layout. The kitchen was immaculate and included many of the essentials you need if you’re planning on cooking. The master suite was comfortable with a great bathroom and walk-in closet. I appreciated that there was not all the extra decorating pieces (like you find in many rentals) everywhere so you could use the bureau top much like you would in your own home. The beach is a short distance from the house with public access to the beach, but if you have bad knees —there are a lot steps up and down to get to the beach. Really isn’t a problem though because the Bonnet Beach access is a short drive away and a bit easier access to the beach. This property was in a wonderful location so you can enjoy a relaxed, do nothing kind of stay or venture out to lots of nearby things to do.

I am so glad that your family enjoyed their stay at the house. You were a pleasure to communicate with. Please come back and stay with us again. Thank you so much!
The perfect house for our vacation. Not only was the location ideal but the host gave great information on entertainment and dining to take guess work out of visiting a new location.
Ariana is a phenomenal host, and the home is absolutely gorgeous. From the minute we booked the listing, Ariana was the kindest and warmest person to talk to. I genuinely felt like she was excited that we were going to enjoy her home. When we arrived, the home was impeccably clean. And we're sticklers for clean rentals, so I don't use that phrase lightly. The cleaning crew did a fantastic job! It's a beautiful home, perfectly situated close to the beach. We went in the middle of August and the beach access was just the right amount of busy. The location of the home is perfect, too. It was so easy to take our boys for an evening walk on the beach on the first day and then walk one block over the next day for some delicious ice cream at The Spot (highly recommend it). Overall, if you're looking for a beautiful, convenient location for a nice stay in Nags Head, you'd be really missing out if you didn't talk to Ariana and check out this place!
