I have been coming here with my family for a few years. This time we didn’t have the best weather. Nonetheless, the house was felt like home and we enjoyed our time in watching movies and football. We also got to enjoy some of the excellent restaurants and attractions near the house like Sunset Grille, Jockey's Ridge, and the Lost Colony. We will definitely be returning!

Great vacation house in OBX. Kids loved shuffleboard and foosball tables. One small issue was crossing the highway to get to the beach. Easily overcome by shuttling everyone in the car the block to a lot right at the lifeguard stand. Perfect.

Family OBX Trip

This property was in a great location in Kill Devil Hills. We went north to Corolla for a horse adventure and south to Cape Hatteras, both were very easy day trips. We walked to the ocean many times, but you do need to be careful crossing N Croatan Highway 158. Everything was as pictured, the beds were comfortable, the water pressure in the showers was fantastic. All the light switches are labeled which was very helpful. Bath and beach towels were provided along with beach chairs and coolers, all very much appreciated. Small view of the ocean from the top deck, which we sat on often. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again if in the area.

Good location

This house was very clean and equipped with everything we needed and some things we didn't know we needed. It had plenty of room for the kids to play. The bedrooms feel private because of their location throughout the house. For us, this house was in a good location because it was minutes from all of our scheduled activities. Being close to Avalon Pier and a park with a splash pad was a bonus. Plus, we could see the ocean from one of the balconies. We had a great time during the day and a comfy cozy house to go back to in the evening.

Reservation process, communication, and overall property quality was great. We were there for a friend’s surprise 50th birthday party. There were 6 adults staying at the house. We weren’t there a lot, but the property was clean, and had all the necessary amenities. We will, of course, be back. The location can’t be beat.

Three generation family trip

This house was PERFECT for our first-ever vacation with our two adult children and their families: my husband an I took the first floor, our daughter, herfiancee, and their children ages 7 and almost 5 fit perfectly on the second floor, and our son and his wife and 16-month old daughter were on the third floor. The kitchen was so well equipped - plenty of plates, mugs, glasses and silverware for all 9 of us, so we didn't have to run the dishwasher every day. The 3rd floor deck with gas grill was perfect for cooking and eating dinner. The house is beautifully decorated in bright colors and a nautical theme throughout. Plenty of comfy furniture and a TV in every room. The second floor living room had a shuffleboard table that was a hit with our grandson, and also a foosball table. Convenient laundry room (full-size washer and dryer) on the second floor. Third floor living room had plenty of seating and was open to the kitchen. More than enough space for all of us to be together, but also have privacy if we needed it. The second refrigerator in the Tiki Room on the first floor was very convenient. The fenced back yard was a fun place to play corn hole (another hit with our grandson!), sit in the hammock chair, and enjoy s'mores around the fire pit. Plenty of beach chairs and boogie boards that we could use. This was a tremendous vacation and we voted unanimously to come back next year! Alison (the owner) was extremely helpful in answering questions ahead of time.
