The home was amazing!! It was clean and the rooms were big enough to accommodate all 7 of us! Goldie was very easy to get in contact with and was able to answer all questions I may have had! We will definitely stay again!
The house was great. Excellent condition, very clean and nice layout for a family. Excellent accommodations. The host was excellent to work with and very responsive.
We were here for an adults only trip for a wedding and this house was perfect. The host was so sweet and helped up upon arrival. The house was so well kept and had everything we needed. Not to mention the sound front and walkway was an added bonus.
Great place, well furnished with new furniture. House is right on the canal, walking distance to 2 pools and the local restaurant. Excellent place and owner was very easy to work with and very friendly. We had a great stay here.
Had a great stay here. House is beautiful, clean, and in a great location. Goldie communicated quickly and often. Really enojoyed our stay here and would stay here again!
Thank God we purchased the insurance because the owner committed fraud by lying and filing a claim saying that we damaged her home. We cleaned and did a walk-through before we checked out at 9:30am. When I asked the owner to send me pictures of the claimed damage she refused. I told her that it felt like she was scamming the insurance and she stopped communicating. The home was beautiful but she never checked us in with the front gate which meant that we had to resubmit all of the information and paperwork again to the security office. She also advertised a golf cart but when we called her (several calls because things were not as advertised), she said "The golf cart is not available with no reason why". We had to call her because the door code was incorrect in her emails, the internet access was not initially provided, and the front door does not close unless you lock it, which is impossible to do when you are checking out and leaving the property unless you have a key. I would definitely stay in that community again but never with this owner.

As the owner, also very thankful this guest purchased insurance.
We absolutely loved this house. It’s the perfect proximity to the pool, Blue Water Grill and docks! We loved the spacious porches to watch the summer sun set. Owner was very responsive and easy to work with. We will rent again! We highly recommend this house.
We had a great stay here! We enjoyed the golf cart rides, the pool/restaurant amenities, the place in general. It was very clean and up to date. We loved sitting on the porch to enjoy the view. Short drive to the beach and close to old downtown Manteo. Lots of things to do in the area! Goldie was absolutely amazing and so responsive to all our needs! Thank you!
We really enjoyed the location (about 15 minutes from the beach), quiet community, beautiful homes, boats, sunrises, and friendly neighbors. The community pool and park were ideal for the younger kids. The home was very well kept and had all of the supplies we needed. Of course we brought our own toiletries, paper towels, and things like that. The price was great and certainly affordable. The owner stayed in contact with me and was easy to reach. I do believe we will rent again.
Every year, we travel from Chicago to North Carolina to meet family at the beach. My wife and I are originally from NC. The property was perfect for us, with bedrooms for our family of four and the grandparents, plus three full bathrooms to make mornings smooth. The property was well maintained, and the photos were accurate. Although it was winter and we didn't catch any fish, we did see them swimming around.The location is great for downtown Manteo and Nags Head. Kitty Hawk and Duck take a bit longer to reach, but it wasn’t an issue.This property is definitely on our list for future stays.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in
Semi - Disappointed
When we arrived, the beds were made, but the floors had not been swept and there was only one bath towel for each bedroom. On day 2, my husband killed a cockroach, leaving us wondering about the cleaning service. The location was great - close to everything! Enjoyed the club house services.
We visited this property for our 40th anniversary trip.
The house was beautiful. Loved the decor and high end finishes.
The views from the decks were gorgeous! Seeing the canal filled with boats and the sound in the distance was so relaxing.
We have stayed in the Outer Banks many times since the 80’s , this was the most perfect house yet!
Everything was well thought out and convenient.
Pirate’s Cove is an amazing location and this house had everything we hoped for!
Thank you Gloria! You are so friendly and responsive during our stay!
