This home was the cleanest we’ve ever stayed in. It was perfect size for our group of 10. The kitchen was fully stocked and made preparing meals simple. The fireplace was not working during our stay, it was cold and blustery out so that would have been amazing. We pick our homes based on several amenities and the fireplace was one of those. The communication was prompt and they did try to repair the fireplace but could not. The effort was appreciated. We would absolutely stay again.

Kimberly, Ten guests, smooth meals, and a spotless home sounds like a great OBX getaway. We are so glad it delivered for your group. We hear you on the fireplace and wish we could have added that extra bit of cozy during your stay. Thank you for the grace you showed while we tried to resolve it. We would love to welcome you back soon.
