Awesome home in the middle of it all. We had a great stay, the place was clean, the pool was awesome, and couldn't have been in a better location. We enjoyed the close proximity of the pier, restaurants and the views were amazing for the independence day fireworks. Couldn't recommend enough!

Had a great week here. The best part is the pool. It was so clean and water was lovely.I know the listing says to bring your own paper goods and cleaning stuff but it would be nice if there was a starter kit like a roll of paper towels and hand towel for the kitchen. There was no extra garbage bagsThe golf cart was fun to have but we really did not use it. The sheets were whimsical and each person receives a full set of towels. A bath mat would have been nice but we used one of the hand towels. There was lots of places to hang towels… which was very nice. We used the washer on last day and the dryer wouldn’t start. We were able to fiddle with it with a hammer but it should be looked at. Location is close to beach and we were glad not to have to bring our own beach chairs.

Thank you for staying with us and for the positive comments about the pool, location, beach chairs, towel setup, and overall week. We're glad you enjoyed your stay! For future guests, we do want to clarify a few points mentioned in the review. Our listing clearly explains that guests should bring their own paper products, cleaning supplies, and additional trash bags, we do provide starter paper products but they might not last the entire week. We also provide a full set of towels and sheets for each registered guest, as stated in the listing. Regarding the dryer, we're sorry you experienced an issue on the final day and appreciate letting us know. We do, however, ask that guests please contact us when an appliance isn't working rather than attempting to repair it themselves — particularly with a hammer. We would have been happy to address the issue for you. Overall, we're pleased that you had a great week and enjoyed the pool, location, beach access, and amenities. We always encourage guests to review the listing details and reach out to us during their stay if something isn't working properly so we have the opportunity to take care of it.

The home was very comfortable and a great location for our group. Owner was extremely responsive to questions and kind enough to extend our check-out time. Given the guests had to make beds with provided sheets, I would have expected cleaner mattress protectors, pillows, and comforters. All of the above needed an upgrade.

Perfect House For Us

Everything was as described in the listing, the house was clean and had everything we needed. We had a lot of windy days and rough surf with double red flags on the beach so the pool got a lot of use. The location in Nags Head meant we never had to drive far. If you're headed down, I can't recommend the Dolphin watch (the magnet is on the fridge) and the night-time bioluminescence kayak tour.

Great location. Great host. Could be cleaner

This house is located in a great location, just across the street from Jeanette’s pier and right beside Whalebone Park, perfect for kids. Great host and easy to work with. Unfortunately the cleanliness of the house was disappointing. It was also interesting the only cups in the house were either coffee cups or wine glasses, neither of which are suitable for children.

Girls Trip - August 2024

Where do I even start about our trip. From the moment we walked in the door, you were in Paradise. The house was perfect. The location, well you could not ask for a better location. The beach is right across the street and the sound view from the upper deck is amazing. The most beautiful sunsets. The pool was amazing, and our girls loved it especially coming home from the beach and washing off and then spending time in the pool. The host was amazing. The few very small questions that I had, the immediately responded. You are in walking distance of the shops. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Wonderful Experience! Will Be Back Next Year!

We are thoroughly pleased with this home, location and Owner! We stayed for 2 weeks which included the first week with some family for our beach wedding and the second week, just us for our honeymoon. The home was not too big and not too small, just right. At first we thought that the 3 levels would seclude people, but the space and layout worked out perfectly. The pool was a good size (watch out for the sharp drop off about 5 or 6 steps in!), plenty of chairs to lounge around on, nice porch swing on the back lower deck to enjoy beautiful Sound sunsets in the evenings. The Owner is right that you could potentially park your car and not move it again until you are ready to leave. The location is great! We happen to love Sam & Omie's, so knew that it would be a good spot for us to begin with. The Pier is a wonderful addition and we walked to it a few times during our stay. The Beach Access is so close that you dont feel it is a chore to walk there from the house. Especially if using the beach buggy that is provided. We only encountered one hiccup while there and that was when the dryer couldnt be turned on due to a stripped Start Knob. I emailed the Owner that evening and he had someone at the house the very next day to fix it. He was also very apologetic for the misshap. Never have we encounted Owners that are this quick to make sure that we were satisfied and comfortable. The Owners could be reached at any time, day or night for any reason, if needed. Luckily, we did not need to bother them because we had everything that we needed! Our favorite places to eat are at Sam & Omies and Blue Moon. We tried the Blue Moon on the suggestion of the Owners and thought it was some of the best food on the island that we have ever had. We will certainly go back there each year for a meal or two! We plan on booking this property each summer for our vacations for many years to come. Thank you to the Owners for allowing us to use your space. We enjoyed ourselves very much in your lovely home!

Great location, just across the street from the beach and pier. Perfect home for us, a family of five with three younger kids. We also brought our two dogs. There was a playground right next door and plenty of open areas for walking the dogs around. Because the house was by the pier there were bathrooms right by the beach which is a nice plus.

Of all the places we have stayed, OBX Life 2 has the most comfortable beds and living room furniture. More than that, the location is perfect, and the views of the sound and the ocean are relaxing.

Great Vacation get away

We just got home today. We had a great stay. Mike is great to work with, I couldn’t find our linens and he was so quick to respond to my message and help me locate them. The house was spaced out nicely to where you aren’t on top of each other. The yard space was perfect for my French bulldog. The kids really enjoyed the pool after coming back from the beach each day. The park within walking distance was a great bonus as well. Google maps had me alittle worried about the distance to the beach, but not a issue at all, from the house to my feet touching the sand was maybe 2 mins. Can’t wait to book with Mike again!

Great family rental near the beach

Really nice spot right across the street from the beach and Jennette's pier. The kids loved the bunk beds room, and although one of the beds was fairly squeaky, mostly everyone slept well. Being right next to the playground is really nice for families with little kids.

Overall Review

Property is not in great repair and needs some attention. Hot water did not work in master bathroom or kitchen. Faucet in kitchen was not working properly. There were no glasses in the property other than wine glasses. Property did not appear that clean. The property is okay but is not as good as it looks online.
Response from VrboOwner on 5 Dec 2020
This 2-star review surprised us!! When we checked on them during their stay they told us how much they love the house and enjoyed the sunset views off the back deck. They even said they want to rent for next Fall. No mention of lack of hot water (water heated replaced in 2019) or glasses....not sure what happened? I guess this sums up 2020!! LOL
