Great Location and Awesome Property

We stayed at the property in April 2021 and had a wonderful time. The location was perfect to get to the beach easily. There were nice local restaurants nearby to enjoy breakfast and lunch. The pool and hot tub were great and the kids thoroughly enjoyed it. We felt safe, had a lot to do, and the management company responded promptly to our questions and concerns. It was exactly what we needed and we had a great time!

My daughter and I stayed for a couple days off season. It was gorgeous. Nice view of the ocean. Very quiet. Most of the local restaurants were closed. There is a nice little market close by. Great place to be off the grid. Wish I could have stayed longer.

Buxton vacation

The house & location were great. I wish there had been a few more simple amenities-sponge, salt & pepper, tin foil, etc. Our only complaint was we were notified that within an hour we had to get home to get our dog bcuz pest control was coming. So we had to cancel reservations for an excursion to get home without any prior notice. Also, the AC broke, so first we sweat & then we couldnt go anywhere so that they could come work on it for 2 days. Obviously, not their fault, but we lost vacation time & excursions bcuz of both & no one apologized or cared that we were put out.

Wonderful month stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great place, great time! We stay here every year and they always improve something each year. It is very comfortable and I am hoping the king mattress is the update project for next year. We love this place, love the deck, outdoor furniture and location. Price continues to rise and don’t think it is set off season rates as it used to be. May impact our choice in future.

The deck was great for viewing the beach and there was room enough for all of us to relax comfortably. Close to everything you could need and plenty of local sights to visit. It was a wonderful trip. Highly recommend if you don't want touristy trap vacations, this is quiet and everyone I've met here has been kind.

Our units have always been clean and well maintained. Managers have always been helpful. Love the beachfront access and like the "round house" cottages the best! I would highly recommend Lighthouse View to anyone staying in the Buxton area.

Great beach-front vacation stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second year staying at Lighthouse View - this year just one circle house farther back from the ocean. We were worried the ocean view wouldn't be as good from farther back, but it was still great! The house is comfortably furnished and surprisingly sand-free and the beaches always have lots of space so you never feel "too close" to another family. The kitchen amenities could be a bit better (we definitely didn't have enough trash bags or dishwasher pods for the week) and some extra food storage containers or large bowls would be helpful for food preparation.

Excellent stay

Ample size for a couple plus one single adult and a dog with two bedrooms and two baths. Steps from the beach. Loved seeing the ocean first thing in the morning and last glimpse at night from windows and deck. Interior with recent renovations of marble counters, new cabinets, new utensils and appliances. Equipped with everything we needed for meals made staying in. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Highly recommend staying on this southern part of Cape Hatteras near the lighthouse, sand as far as you can see and we took a day trip to Ocracoake. Excellent communication from Lighthouse managers.

My husband and I took off on a spur of the moment get away. We haven't been anywhere since Covid. It was December 2021 and it was around the upper 60s low 70s. We will be returning. The place was super clean and very convenient to walk the beach every morning.
