This being said, with water surrounding both sides of the island, pests such as palmetto bugs, spiders, flies, mosquitoes, midges, and ants can be prevalent around your vacation rental home, as they commonly seek out food, sources of water, and cooler temperatures! This is very typical for Outerbanks. Our home is well maintained by pest control service

🏖 INTERNET:
The house has reliable Internet, but the speeds aren’t the fastest given the remote location. It works well for streaming Netflix on the television, multiple phones connected using social media and email, but you’ll see reduced speeds if you have multiple people performing bandwidth-heavy activities (zoom calls/downloading and uploading large files, etc.)

You can access your Hulu & Netflix accounts with the Smart TV

We loved the house! Beautiful layout - tons of room. Top floor was wonderful - so spacious and you can be in the dining room, kitchen or living area and still see and talk with everyone! Fully stocked with everything you could need. Loved having the pool table room for evening hanging out, plus the area with the hot tub was so enjoyable too - swinging on the hammock or in the hot tub. Property owner very attentive - answered any questions very quickly. Will definitely come back to this house again!

Fantastic Beach House

Perfectly Imperfect Getaway

Our trip was slightly foiled by a passing storm/tropical depression. The house sustained some minor wind damage but Sushma did everything in her power to ensure we were checked in, comfortable and safe. This house is a very short walk to the beach and has views for days!

Beautiful clean house, with lots of extras

Everything was great, the house was very nice and clean. Weather was chilly so the heated pool and hot tub came in very nice. A little far from the beach but not bad 15 minute walk. Pool table and volley ball court was fun. Everything stocked up for what you need. Owner was very informative and helpful. Would definitely stay here again. Also a short walk to the sound pier behind the house for beautiful sunsets.

Vacation Highlights

Sushma is a superb host. She contacted me within a day of any questions I had prior to our visit. Once there she greeted me with a welcoming message and checked in with us via messages to insure we were enjoying our stay. The house is beautiful and it accommodated our family of 10 wonderfully. We would definitely come back. Thank you Sushma for being a 5 star host!

Great week

We had a great week at this property! It was clean and well stocked. The bedrooms and bathrooms were perfect for our situation. The living space upstairs was large enough for all of us to gather and enjoy. The pool was very nice and our kids (big and little) enjoyed it very much! The porches on every level gave us lots of options to be outside and enjoy the weather. The one drawback was the shortcut to the beach is posted, No Trespassing, so that added a bit more time to walk to the beach. Overall a wonderful week!

July Vacation

The property is beautiful! Plenty of room for everyone and lots of entertainment. The game room with the pool table was a big hit and the outdoor pool was so nice to have. The beach is a bit of a walk, so you may want to have wagons or get dropped off if you're headed there with a lot of stuff and/or kids. Sushma was very responsive throughout the entire stay, which we were all very appreciate of. Salvo is about a half hour away from the "big" grocery stores, so you probably want to bring a haul with you or stop there on your way in to avoid having to double back. Overall, a great vacation!!

Fantastic home for multi family vacation!

This home was perfect for our 3 families. Plenty of space for 7 kids ages 12-16, all of us parents, and 2 dogs. We swam in the pool every day and hung out in the screened-in lower floor every night. Very short walk to beach for sunrise and sound for sunset. Shushma is an excellent host, responded immediately to my every question and request. Could not have asked for more. This home is great for guests with full function & stregnth but could be a challenge for guests that struggle with stairs - the kitchen and main living space is on the top floor. There is a dumbwaiter but no elevator. This was our first time to OBX so this setup might be typical but it was a suprise to us. We did fine (worked off the ridiculous amounts of ice cream we ate from the shoppe down the road) but it was a bit of a challenge for my older parents that stayed in a separate property to come over for visits/meals. But we made it work. Overall a really wonderful time and we are already talking about coming back. Will stay here again. Thank you Shushma!

About the host

Hosted by Sushma

Host profile image
I love welcoming families and groups to the Outer Banks and creating a space where everyone can relax, connect, and make memories together. Hosting is rewarding for me because I enjoy hearing how much fun guests have—whether it’s kids enjoying the pool and games, or adults relaxing on the decks with a beautiful view. I take pride in being responsive and making sure my guests feel well cared for during their stay.

Why they chose this property

Easy walk/drive to the beach, Pamlico sound views, tons of outdoor amenities private to this home include horseshoe games, sand volleyball court, pool, hot tub and the list goes on!

What makes this property unique

This home is designed for large families and groups, with plenty of space to gather while still offering quiet corners to unwind. It features multiple decks with sound views, a heated pool and hot tub, and a wide variety of games and activities that keep guests entertained on and off the beach. The layout makes it easy to host big gatherings, and the thoughtful extras—from a well-stocked kitchen to beach gear and yard games—make the stay effortless. Guests often tell me it feels like the home has everything they could need for the perfect Outer Banks vacation.
