Amazing location and charming home

This house was absolutely perfect! The location had easy access to restaurants and stores. It was like having a private beach because of the distance to other properties! The deck was the perfect place to have coffee in the morning or relax in the evening. The home was exactly as advertised - the kitchen had everything we needed to make meals at home. We enjoyed everything about this place and will definitely book again.The host was fantastic, easy to communicate with and extremely accommodating. I highly recommend this property for couples or families!

Great Vacation

The house was exactly as listed and had everything you could want or need in a vacation rental. The location was perfect. We watched dolphins from the deck almost every day. Our dog loved hanging out on the large deck and the gate kept him safe. We ate dinner on the deck several nights as the sun was setting- lovely. Terry’s house is perfect for an OBX vacation!

The Perfect Beach Location

This was the perfect place for our beach vacation. The large front room overlooks the ocean, pictures don't do it justice. The extra large deck was where we spent our evenings sipping wine and watching the waves. The home was clean and well stocked, the property manager was accessible and attentive. We'd definitely stay here again!

Best Beach House Ever!

This house is as close as you will get to the surf without being in a boat! Great accommodations located in the heart of Kitty Hawk - close to some really great locally owned restaurants! Other great points: terrific deck, comfortable furniture and beds, and plenty of kitchen space! Property owners are awesome and the house was spotless! We love, love, love this place and will definitely rebook for next summer!
