We are practical folks and wanted a practical place to stay. FOUND IT! 1 minute walk to the beach, 3 minutes to any store by car, and all attractions were less than an hour away. The property had everything we needed and was so comfortable. We would definitely stay here again and recommend to all out friends.

Cute house! Great for small family cannot fit more than 1 car for parking .
Great house for small family only. Only room for one car and I’m not sure how it will stay cool in summertime was all the small window units could do to keep up with 80 degrees. It was clean and cozy. Would recommend to someone in a strict budget with small family.

Thank you for your feedback on this rental home. For future guests, we do offer overflow parking at our Cove Realty office for smaller homes to park excess cars. Also, thank you for letting us know about the AC, as this home usually has no issues keeping up with the summer heat, so we will definitely send our technician out to take a look.
Thank you again for your feedback and we hope to see you again!
Our first trip to Nags Head. We were flying in from Colorado and meeting family members staying down the road. It was just my husband and I staying at the cottage. It was a nice little place for the two of us. Had all we needed to prepare a meal. The location was great. The only suggestion I would make is to have an iron on site and perhaps a blowdryer. They are small items but it would nice for those who are flying in. We would definitely recommend.

Thank you so much for your feedback on this rental home. We will be forwarding this information to the owners for considerations on additions for the '23 season.

Great location and just the right size. It is good for a couple or three people. Unfortunately, we may have been the first rental for the beginning of the season. The smell of mildew was so strong the first 4 days. My advise is open the windows a week before rentals start coming as the smell was unbearable the first day....in fact we stayed away as long as possible the first night. If it wasn't for the smell, I would definitely rent this again.

Thank you for your feedback on this rental home. We're very sorry to hear about your issue with an initial mustiness in the unit. While the air usually circulates during cleaning and inspecting prior to each stay, we will pass this information on to the cleaners to leave the ceiling fans running on low to constantly keep circulation throughout the home.
We hope that, aside from this issue, you were able to enjoy all the Outer Banks has to offer!
Enjoyed our vacation here, very reasonable price and convenient location. A couple minute’s walk from the beach and 10-15 minutes from food lion. Having both the shower and hose outside the house was also very helpful. A few minor complaints: air conditioner in the room with two beds was very loud, depending on weather it’s better to use the fan at night and AC during the day. Charter spectrum internet isn’t ideal especially in bad weather (download shows before a storm comes through), but don’t think there’s anything property owners can do about that. There’s a shortage of grounded (3 prong) outlets in the bedrooms, would recommend bringing a power strip if need be. All relatively minor complaints especially with the great price, overall 4.5 stars. Would recommend for families/groups of 4 people who are looking to spend a lot of time on the beach on a budget.

Thank you so much for your feedback on this rental home. We've sent this information on to the owners, and they have already made plans to come down mid-July and address the loud AC that you've mentioned. And as for Charter here on the island, yes, we tend to have whole island outages during severe weather, but we greatly thank you for your understanding that these outages are area-wide.
We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again!

Perfect little getaway for our little family! Central to so many activities!
We really enjoyed our stay at Madden One. There is so much to do. Two minute walk to the beach. Fifteen minute walk to Fishheads at the Outer Banks Fishing Pier (little bit longer if you walk on the beach) with food, drinks and live music. Five minute drive to Bodie Lighthouse. All the shopping and restaurants you could want within minutes of the house.
The house was everything we needed it to be. It was clean but was a bit stale smelling when we arrived. After defrosting the freezer the refrigerator worked ok but never really got cold. The air conditioner in the twin bed room needs to be replaced, it’s so loud you can’t use it. The staff at Cove Realty was very nice and responded quickly to our maintenance request, though they could not remedy the air conditioner problem. They informed us the owner would need to replace it.
We were happy with our experience and would rent from them again! Can’t wait to return to the Outer Banks!

Thank you so much for your feedback on this rental home! We're sorry about your initial experience, but glad that things were immediately remedied. We also want to let you know that the owners will be picking up a new refrigerator when they come down in the post-season, and will also be tending to the AC.
We're very happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay here on the Outer Banks and look forward to seeing you again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was quiet and for not being beachfront it sure felt like it. It was less than a 2 minutes walk down the private neighborhood beach lane - toes in sand, the Atlantic Ocean before you! Beautiful beach area. Kitchen had everything we needed and the cottage had a vintage vibe and yes you can hear the ocean from the little screened porch.. Loved it!

Thank you for your feedback on this rental home. We will forward input to the owners for possible upgrades before the 2022 season.

Cozy cottage in a quiet area, with great stargazing sky. You can hear the waves from the screened in porch. We enjoyed preparing meals in the kitchen. Friendly people on the street.
If you want to be close to the beach, this is the place. The home is simple and functional, no frills but it worked for us.

The house reeked of musty, wet dog. We had to open windows and constantly spray room deodorizer. The beds were rock hard and the furniture very uncomfortable. Cove Realty was awesome to deal with and was always friendly and helpful.
Nice stay, wasn't thrilled with cove reality communication. Nice time, nice cottage.
Good relaxing time.

Thank you so much for you feedback about this rental home. I'll be sending maintenance to investigate the A/C and will also be speaking to the cleaners if they've ever noticed signs of a dog during a clean, as this unit is not dog-friendly.
I'm very glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at this rental home and we hope to see you again!
