I chose this location because of proximity to my Families other lake house, and because of the good reviews. This house has a great location. The home is VERY clean and well kept on the inside. The kitchen is fully stocked and the house has everything needed to make your stay comfortable. The outside of the home needs some attention. The set up is great but not usable without a little elbow grease of your own. The back deck is not relaxing or comfortable because it is so unkept. The yard is extremely overgrown and not well maintained. This is minor but to enter the home you have to access a lockbox with a key in it and with the different people (my grown children) coming and going it was hard to keep up with, and would have been much easier if it had a keypad entry like most rentals do. I will be renting this location again when we return to the area because it served my purposes for just a place to sleep and shower.

Our 3rd stay

We love this property. Outdoors: the lake ready to jump in, the gazebo, the patio, the driveways. The driveway next to the house makes it possible for our disabled friends to enter without steps. Inside is comfy with a great kitchen. Thanks again Susan!

Nice Getaway

Nice getaway with a fully stocked home. Lounging in bed while looking at the lake was the perfect complement to a good book and readily available coffee just down the hall. Especially loved that it was pet friendly as our dog child loves her stays along lakefronts too.

Girls Weekend

We 3 ladies who have known each other since middle & high school (46+ years ago) who reacquainted at a 40th reunion 6 years ago and have become the best of friends. We decided it was time to do more than talk on the phone so we rented this place. It was absolutely perfect in every way. The outdoor setup was perfect and the view spectacular.

Nice lake house - easy access to main lake

We stayed 4 nights of Memorial Day. Arrival/communication with host was great. Everything was as described. Feels like a cabin in the woods - lovely trees & privacy. The road noise was in another review, and we didn't think it would be an issue but it was distracting when cars with extra loud mufflers, or EMS drove by, which happened at least once daily. The campground is close &had DJ'd parties 2 nights, and that was loud until 11PM. There are plenty of clean linens inside the house, presumably whoever does the laundry is a smoker. The towels are old and mis-matched, which didn't bother us at all, but don't expect new, matched towels. There are mouse glue traps in the closets - and a few droppings. We did not see any additional evidence. There are plenty of dishes/cookware. We needed to run sivlerware through the dw, the wooden silverware caddy was a bit grimy. The back patio was not swept/blown in preparation of our arrival, which would have been nice. The seating outside is old and mismatched, which again didn't bother us, but don't expect new, matching patio furniture and cushions. There are 60 steps down to the lake, which are lit at night by plugging in rope lights, which was nice. The dock/boathouse are very nice for swimming, fishing and nice to be able to dock your boat right there. There is no oven- as described, but that was strange. You have to cook while here. Having the gas grill was great. We had a great time with our adult kids and would consider returning.

Relaxing vacation with beautiful view

This was our first time booking a lake vacation (we are historically Nags Head vacationers) and we had a great time. The house was just as promised - convenient to the marina and main lake, large parking area for cars and boat, gazebo was perfect for morning coffee and afternoon drinks (gate lock was a nice touch for dogs), dock for boat complete with a battery charger which we needed and saved us from having to bring ours down the hill, the house was very clean and provided us with all the amenities we needed and Susan was quick to respond to questions and very accommodating. Our water dog enjoyed her daily swims in the lake and was able to climb the bank to exit the water. Jumping in and out became a game to her🐕🐕. We would definitely book with her again. The marina was only minutes away where we purchased gas and ice. The Dollar General was 4.5 miles away where you can pick up almost anything you forgot. Next trip I’m going to the winery which is just 2.7 miles from the house and was beautiful. My only suggestion would be to update the outside deck chairs. Everything else was perfect for us. Hope to rebook for a future get away. Thanks again Susan for being a wonderful host!

Excellent response from the owner and a very quiet, peaceful and quaint place to stay. Loved all the little details available. Things like the coffee machine and having the linens and towels were great. The instruction sheet left on paper form on the table was very helpful as well. The dock was great and the views were beautiful. Very nice little place to stay.

Had a great time staying here with our family! The pictures on the listing really don't do justice to how cute and cozy the inside of the property is. It's much more inviting than pictured. Very clean inside, nice furniture and comfortable and large bedrooms. This area of the lake is also really nice and peaceful. The only downside was the lack of oven. There is a toaster oven that works well. But if you are planning on making your kids a lot of frozen pizzas and such, that makes it tricky for easy dinners. Also the outside of the property could use some TLC. Great gazebo but most of the outdoor furniture is in rough shape. Also, lots of nails sticking up on the dock and my husband split his foot open pretty badly on one of them. So be careful being barefoot! Otherwise, had a wonderful stay and would come again!
