The den has a comfortable couch (pull out queen sofa sleeper) and loveseat with a large television with DVD player. The kitchen is fully equipped with a table that seats 6 and everything you should need including a coffee maker, Keurig, toaster, blender and microwave. The master bedroom is very large with a king size bed, plenty of room for a pack n play, television and private bathroom with shower. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the third has a pyramid bunk bed (twin on top & full on bottom bunk ) with a television. Outside there is a nice patio to enjoy the ocean breezes on. In the rear of the house there are tables and chairs on both levels, an outdoor shower, corn hole boards, colorful chairs on the front deck as well as a swing on the front of the house!

The upper level has carpet in the bedrooms only.. It has a roomy den with two sofas (one is a queen sleeper sofa), a flat screen television set, DVD player and game system.

Amazing Stay

This was one of my favorite vacations. The host is very responsive and the house was beautiful. The short walk to the beach was so nice and I felt very safe. There is also a little restaurant/bar on the direct corner that’s very nice and my son said the fish tacos were the best he’s ever had. I highly recommend this house for your stay.

This was a great rental. Best price relative to other airbnbs and hotels, the location speaks for itself, it’s walking distance to the beach and even this spots location in the greater OBX is perfect. There’a a really good Italian spot next door along with many other food and entertainment spots close by. The house had everything we needed and was clean when we got to there. They do require quite a bit of cleaning after your stay but to be honest it’s not that bad and is pretty normal if you’ve rented airbnbs before. I would highly recommend if you’re looking for a nice place to stay in OBX!

This house was exactly as described. Location was excellent. In a quiet location and beach access just across the street. Communication with the owners was excellent. Although we didn’t need to contact them during our stay as all was. This is perfect property for two families. The upper and lower units were completely separate with their own kitchen and amenities. We would definitely stay here again.

Had a great time with a few families in one place. Great house, great location! Just as advertised and lots of amenities for the beach. Only downside for us was no inside stairs to lower level which made putting kids to bed and adults hanging out and night challenging especially in the rain. All in all, a fabulous place and a wonderful week!

Great place and location

We booked a short stay at this property for an opportunity to connect with family. We are familiar with the area but this location made our visit great. It is less than a block from the beach and there are several fun restaurants in walking distance. That made it easy to enjoy the time with 4 grandchildren and not spend too much time in the car. The rental was very clean, inviting, and thoughtfully furnished. We enjoyed our time there. Great porch with a nice view. The owner was quick to respond to a few minor details and questions. We hope to visit again sometime, perhaps for a longer timeframe. Highly recommend.

Week Stay with Young Kids

Rooms were nice and clean, the bunk bed room had space for a pack and play for our one year old to sleep in so that was a big plus. The closest public beach access is really close but only stairs for beach access, so be ready to carry any beach wagons. Luckily the other beach accesses up the road both are both stairs and walkouts. Definitely looking forward to staying here again in the future.
