With 7 kids and 2 adults there was plenty of room. 5 bedrooms and a bonus room with 2 bunk beds. 5 min drive away from the beach. We saw horses almost everyday. It was a great experience and house for our family. I’d recommend this home for a large family that wants to be secluded on vacation. 5 stars

The house was very spacious and in a great location, less than a five-minute drive to Corolla Beach. We spent our 33rd anniversary there, and my wife was especially excited to see the wild horses. Although none came right up to the property, we saw plenty while tailgating on the beach. The host even offered to extend our stay by two complimentary nights. Overall, it was a great stay!

We had an amazing stay at this OBX 4x4 beach property! The house was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. One of the best parts was the peaceful location in the four wheel drive area of Corolla. It truly felt like getting away from the crowds while still being close enough to enjoy everything the Outer Banks has to offer.The wild horses wandering through the area were unforgettable and made the experience feel unique and special. We also loved being able to drive directly onto the beach instead of hauling all of our gear back and forth. The views, quiet atmosphere, and outdoor spaces made it easy to unwind every day.The hosts clearly put a lot of care into the property, and communication was excellent from start to finish. If you are looking for a true OBX adventure with privacy, nature, and a relaxing beach vibe, this is the perfect place to stay. We would absolutely come back again!

Hi, thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are thrilled you enjoyed the peace and quiet of the 4x4 area, and it's always a treat when the wild horses wander through. We’d love to host you for another OBX adventure whenever you are ready to come back!

Absolutely fabulous from top to bottom. Myself and several brothers stayed a few days here for a bachelor’s getaway and had an unforgettable experience. This is an amazing home that is clean, wonderfully furnished and an extremely considerate and responsive host. I really appreciated the host staying in contact from before the rental date and through it till the end. The host felt like an old friend! The location is ideal for a comfortable getaway adventure for several people. It’s like a home away from but in paradise. Great access to the beach, two fully equipped kitchens that made cooking a breeze and plenty of room to relax after a long day of fishing or hiking. If you are visiting Corolla beach this is the home to stay in. I know my friends and I will certainly return every time we visit the Outer Banks!

Family Vacation

We have a WONDERFUL time during our stay!! This vacation was absolutely amazing and the most peaceful one ever. From driving on the beach to seeing the wild horses in the back yard, we loved every single moment. The hosts were amazing, very friendly and helpful. Wished we could have stayed longer but we will definitely be back next year.

Best experience of OBX to date

Overall best experience to date I’ve had at OBX. Raw and untamed, what I envisioned the island to be before heavy tourism and development. Wild horse encounters were more than you can count on two hands! Trent and Stephanie were helpful,prompt,and courteous.private and secluded .

This was our first time renting a house on the beach anywhere. It was very secluded. There were a few issues, but I suspect any place like that has a few issues. So I guess you get what you paid for.

Perfect Family Getaway on the 4x4 – Spacious, Peaceful & Close to the Beach!

We came over from the mainland (Currituck) to stay on the 4x4 beach for the long weekend with family, and this house was perfect for our crew. We had a group of adults and kids ranging from 8-16, and there was plenty of room for everyone—actually way more space than we expected!The layout was great: a bunk room and king bedroom on the bottom floor, a master king on the second, and then a king, queen, and two sets of bunk beds on the top floor. Everyone had space to spread out, and no one was on top of each other, which is saying a lot for a big group like ours.The location was one of our favorite parts—it’s farther north on the beach, which made it feel more peaceful and less crowded than the southern end. Super easy access to both the beach and the public boat ramp, which made our days full of fun and zero hassle.Overall, such a great house in a quiet, beautiful spot. We’d absolutely stay here again!
