Second time staying here. It did not disappoint.
The location is perfect. Plenty of room for all of us.
We had a wonderful stay, and look forward to our next booking.
This was a great vacation spot for our family and friends. Plenty of space for all of us and the deck was our favorite spot to relax! Short walk to the beach and just enough places to eat and stores to have options.

Great stay!
This home was perfect for our vacation. Very comfortable for our group of 7. Notable things are the spacious living and dining area and easy check in and out process. Its a short walk to the beach and a short drive to the grocery store. Would recommend for any larger groups, and would definitely stay here again my self.

Great place
Nothing negative to say. If a pool was added I wouldn't vacation anywhere else!
When I called to try and check in early, I was told that the cleaning crew was NOT done. When I did get to the house, NONE OF THE BEDS had ANY linen. Somebody, please tell me how could the house been cleaned the same day and NO linens or towels been left!!
We came here for my daughter’s Spring Break week from Virginia as a little family getaway before going to my sister-in-laws beach rental later in the week. I went in not expecting much from my last minute booking for this property. This home exceeded my expectations. The house itself is livaoi

Beautiful home in OBX perfect for large family
We loved having enough bedrooms and bathrooms for every one. We loved the collection of VHS/DVD’s available for when it rained and late nights. Really fun blasts from the past. We loved the big windows in the living room, the large deck, we loved having the fully stocked kitchen and large refrigerator, as well as long dining table to fit all 10 of us. This house gave everyone enough space to be able to have their own space, which is important with teenagers.
We really enjoyed our stay. There were a few small issues day 1 that maintenance responded to immediately. They were quick and friendly. The house it's self had a good layout and decent bedding. The water was hot for the shower so that was great. Water pressure was decent. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook all week.

Fits the needs of a large group
The views and sunsets were amazing! Especially watching it from the hot tub on the top deck! Spacious for many people and my dogs were happy to be able to run around the deck. Close to the beach! We enjoyed our stay as a family of 6 + 2 dogs

Close to beach!
The house was within easy walking distance to the beach. My dog loved lounging in the sun on the deck, and the hot tub was great. Beds were comfortable. Certain areas of the home could have been cleaner on arrival. Overall a nice stay!

House great but Vacasa lacking.
The location was great and the house was fine. If you are staying more than 2 or 3 days make sure to bring or be prepared to buy paper towels, garbage bags, dishwashing soap, etc
