Nice
The house was very big and clean and had everything I needed and the staff was great will be going back thanks to everyone I talked to when I was there
It was a wonderful house with great amenities! Enjoyed the pool, theater room, pool table. It was great having almost all king beds. The only feedback I have is that there were some much needed kitchen needs. additional forks, tupperware, bottle opener, kitchen mitts, pot holder, dish towel, etc

Excellent home!
I have been renting at OBX for over 20 years and have probably been in a dozen different houses. Pelican’s Pad is very near the top! The pool and the cabana with a refrigerator were very nice. Beds and furniture were very comfortable. High recommended!

Fishing Trip Fun
This cottage is AMAZING! Absolutely beautiful, very roomy. We loved how the majority of the rooms had their own bathrooms. The elevator was a plus for us.
Overall we had an ok stay. It was close to stores and restaurants, it had majority of things we needed. But I felt like it was overpriced for some of the issues we had/saw.

Great House!
We really enjoyed the spacious house and the amenities like the salt water pool and jacuzzi. Having refrigerators on all the floors was great!
Loved the views of sunrise and sunset! We had an amazing time!
Great location and the size was perfect for a large family stay.
The house and location were great. Set back in a quiet neighborhood. We had our dog with us and the neighborhood was great to walk her and I loved that it had spots with poop bag dispensers. There are multiple entertaining spaces which made it great for our different age range of family members to either be together or have space to do their own thing. We did have a plumbing issue with a clog shower drain in two showers (clogged with sand which I get with it being a beach house) but the management was very receptive and had a worker over within a few hours. I would recommend and will definitely be looking to return in the future.

The house is a perfect dog-friendly family getaway. It is on a cul-de-sac street, so bike riding is safe for kids. The pool, hot tub and two kayaks on the lake entertained all.

Wonderful Vacation
We had a wonderful relaxing vacation. The house was set up perfectly for the 16 of us. Plenty of room for everyone. The kayaks were great as was the pool. The extra refrigerators were wonderful to have. Easy access to the beach. We would definitely book this house again.

Excellent house!
House is great, a little dated, but everything was great. Kitchen equipment covers about everything and double dishwashers for our large group was great! I would recommend heating the pool, it gets cold.

The kitchen had enough stuff to cook every night. The elevator was great for groceries and taking stuff to and from the car. The pool was the best! Right across from Avon pier to access the beach. Everyone loved the house!
