Wrong location, limited pictures, horrible experience

DON'T BE FOOLED THIS PROPERTY IS NOT IN DUCK, NC. and the pictures do not show what this house is really like and the realtor has apparently been told time and time again. Reading the reviews ( and I wish I had totally read them more thoroughly) , I agree totally with Thomas C. who stayed there one year ago, everything he commented on is still the same , house is 1970's with ZERO upgrades or creature comforts. The common bath room renovations looks like a third grader did it. Hole in the screened in porch is tied together with fishing string. The porch has 5 different colors of stain. Roach and ant traps under the kitchen sink. 1 inch roach crawled up my girlfriend ankle in master bath. Pealing paint and wood rot on the screened in porch. Unknown substance spewed on the flat screen TV. I've seen better kept properties in worse locations. NEVER AGAIN, AND SHAME ON YOU STAIN WHITE REALITY, YOU SHOULD BE ASSAMED OF YOURSELVES. I wish I could upload pictures as I have more than enough to show what it's really like. DO NOT RENT, DO NOT RENT DO NOT RENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not in or near Duck, HORRIBLE BEDS

Headline is completely wrong. The property is not in Duck...also outside of Kill Devil Hills on Colington Island. The listing should be accurate. It takes a good 8-10 minutes to get out to the highway. The neighborhood is gated - but not sure why. It does have some nicer homes and some that could definitely use some work. This home falls into the latter category. It could be nice...with help. First, make some minor repairs. The screened in porch had a huge hole in the screen, so no use of the porch. Mosquito heaven. Couldn't really take advantage of that. A good scrubbing to get rid of the mildew stains and some nice seating would be a welcomed addition to spruce it up and make it more comfortable. The two Adirondack chairs need a refresh, as well. There is a table strangely shoved into the side. Inside the home: Now, first let me say, we saw the photos - we knew it was dated and kitschy - kind of like going to Grandma's cabin or the Brady Bunch's house. All we really cared about was getting a place that was CLEAN, COMFORTABLE, and had enough beds for everyone. It was clean-ish...yes, freshly vaccumed, floors swept, surfaces clean, BUT again...a deep clean is majorly needed. There were years worth of cobwebs on the ceiling, in the corners, and covering the fake flower/wheat (?) arrangements and and grimy dust around the air vents. Yuck. The cabinets had who knows what splashed on them and the blinds in the kitchen were caked with grease. Comfort - not at all. Yes, you could sit on the couches/chairs, but none of us slept well all week because the beds were like Medieval torture devices. Horrible. The worst bed I have ever had the displeasure of not sleeping on. Not to mention the pillows that were flat as floppy pancakes. Perhaps, too, we should have cared a bit more about the fact that it was not updated because the stove was so old that it was difficult to read the dials. We had that same stove in my house growing up in the 80s...I kid you not. Lastly, we’ll probably go elsewhere for our rental needs; never again with Stan White. The linen rental was an absolute joke. $140 for 1 set of towels each, & bed sheets with 1 pillowcase. Even if we wanted to pile up additional pillows to create a stack of floppy flat pancakes to perhaps equate one normal pillow, we could not. We will go elsewhere where what is needed is provided and they try to go the extra mile to impress. Not even salt & pepper in the house? 1 roll of TP? No hand soap? Come on

Great Vacation

I loved the house and the amount of cooking supplies. The cleaning was not up to par. The property itself was wonderful and so was the great community.

House in need of sanitary updates

The house is in an excellent neighborhood with a great community pool on marina. However, the actual house is in dire need of many updates including new mattresses. The kitchen appliances are ancient and even reading the oven knob is difficult. It you use the house heat, it smells like something is burning. So turning on the kitchen oven and house heat, smell the same. The manager did send over a cleaning lady after some days, and she did organize the cupboards and replace some nasty pots and pans. So if you like the interior of a home that looks like it belongs on the set of 'Stranger Things' and are happy to sleep on ancient mattresses, dont mind black dust and burning smells - and not to mention the garbage from previous occupants out front all over - this is the home and management company for you. Also, dont use the back porch door as it is covered in black mold and webs.
