Home away from home

Great spot to just get away in the country. Quiet, small town that has lots of little fishing holes and excellent crabbing. Just a hours drive into town and beaches.

About the host

Hosted by Gregory Gibbs & Caroline

The Gibbs family goes back to days when Blackbeard called the OBX home. In fact my family descended from Blackbeard's first mate Gibbons, who had the choice to walk the plank or to be sent ashore at Gibbs' Point. Engelhard has been home for our family since the 1600s.

Why they chose this property

This location affords you the ability to enjoy the OBX, hunting, fishing, crabbing, touring historical sites, boating, bird watching, and much more in a serene peaceful setting that is relaxing and gets you back to nature.

What makes this property unique

This property is very reasonably priced, unlike properties that are beach front. We include bed linens and towels at no additional cost. The lodge is one of the only rental properties in the area that can accommodate big/multiple families or groups. Very unique location that allows you to take advantage of everything our part of the world has to offer.
