Erin ruined the stay but the Property Owner as usual was more than accommodating and stayed in contact with us throughout the preceding days. We will never stay anywhere else in the OBX.
Perfect spot to stay with my 2 big dogs! Very clean, close to the beach and in a very quiet area. Everyone around was super friendly. Owner responded quickly and was very accommodating! Would definitely stay here again!
Cute and cozy! A home away from home!Very Close proximity to the beach, eateries, gas, and groceries.Check in and out was extremely easy. I really enjoyed the complimentary coffee. The setting was very peaceful and relaxing. Will definitely recommend to family and friends.
It was a great spot for my and the corgis, the folks around the area are very kind and quiet. It was a short easy walk to the beach. Couple of good spots to eat close by
I can’t say enough about how magical this stay was! This super cozy camper is perfect! Jonathan was available and easy to communicate with for anything/everything, the place was spotlessly clean and had everything that we needed to cook and relax in the camper after a long day at the beach or seeing the sights! This obx location was so peaceful, not super commercialized and crowded with tourists. 5 minute walk to the beach, quick drive to the ice cream stand, & only 30 or 40 minutes from major tourist hot spots in either direction. & the beach was quiet! No crowds! There were countless times that it was just us, the sand & water, & the seashells!!! We will definitely be returning! So grateful to Jonathan and the other community members for making us feel so welcome and at home. 10/10
Enjoyed our stay. Was walking distance to the beach. The host had the camper well equipped. Was able to save money by cooking meals at the rental. Really appreciated the great selection of coffee that they provided. Price was very reasonable and I will be checking availability on the next trip up there
This was an absolutely perfect getaway! The camper was Super Clean, had everything that you would need and just a short walk to the beach. We will Absolutely be staying here again!
This property was perfect for our surf weekend! The place was clean, comfortable and the location was great. We will be visiting again next year! Thanks

A cute stay. The owner was quick to respond to our questions and very helpful. Beautiful walk to the beach, across a little bridge with greenery everywhere. Very enjoyable.
We were beyond pleased with this rental! The place is actually quite roomy - larger than I expected after looking at the photos - and SPOTLESS clean. Comfortable bed, well equipped kitchen, even a Keurig coffee maker with coffee pods and creamers. Pleasant short walk to the ocean beach. HIGHLY recommend!
Such a great place to stay! Short walk to the beach, dog friendly, full kitchen, and overall very clean. Showers were hot even when we did back to back showers. Check in instructions were clear, no problem finding the place. Plenty of games and DVDs in case of a rainy day. Will definitely keep this place in mind when planning another OBX vacation!
I came into town to see some of the historic sites in the area. The "Island Life" is a delightful space, with exactly what I needed: a clean safe place in a quiet area, easy access to the beach, and close to many things to do. The host Jonathan was welcoming and responded to my emails in an extremely timely manner. I was very happy to stay there.
We love this tucked away camper that has all the amenities and none of the stress. You only contend with the sounds of frogs and birds which we will choose time and time again! Beautifully immaculate inside and out. Would recommend and have so to those close to us!! Shopping is within walking distance, and food trucks too!!
This is a great find! Short walk to a very secluded beach. Jonathan was very responsive. Plenty of room for my wife, myself and our two dogs. all cookware you need is there, bring your spices!! This will be our go to when traveling to the area
I was surprisingly pleased with the place, how well maintained and professional everything was.
Renting the place was easy. Every communication sent had a reply issued within minutes. The person maintaining the property was excellent with information and helpfulness.
Great space for a solo traveler or couple (and furry companion)
The place is just as advertised, clean and well-maintained. I got there at dark in the rain, so it was a bit hard to find amongst the other modulars in the cul-de-sac, but the host provided detailed directions which made the search much easier lol.
Jonathan is responsive and provides all the last minute things you might forget for your stay, such as sunblock, water bottles, and even dog dishes for your furry co-pilot, so you can focus on hitting the beach once you get there :)

Small and sweet
This is a small RV that is very sweet on the inside. You can easily walk to a beautiful beach that is blocks away and not many people on it. The location is in a trailer park but the trailers on either side are deserted.
