Perfect getaway
The cottage was comfortable and well equipped. Being down past the British Cemetery made for a very quiet week. It reminder me of my early visits to Ocracoke 50 years ago.

A beautiful cottage
We had a wonderful stay. Everything was as advertised. (Even better than advertised). It was within walking distance of the whole village. We would definitely stay here again. The beds were comfortable. It was very spacious. We loved it!

Best location
A little (well not really little) hideaway back in a quiet residential are next to the British Cemetery. Lots of sitting spaces, well stocked kitchen and nice decks. No you don't need coffee filters. Myself and others have bought them and left them. Very well located within walking distance of several restaurants, the light house, Zillies for wine and beer. It's not a problem but the remote controlled lights sometimes respond to the buttons and sometimes not depending on their mood. Overall a wonderful spot. Would definitely rent again.

Everything was perfect! We were surprised at the amount of space, both in and out. The neighbors beside us (locals) were friendly. I would absolutely recommend this property!

Best Hidden Treasure On The Island
This was our second time staying at Canal House & it was even better than the first! It is located on the quiet, canal/sound side with a large yard and much privacy. We enjoyed kayaking the canals behind the house this year, through the marshes and all the way out to the sound. It is amazing at sunset. The house is very roomy with two living rooms, three bed rooms, a sunroom & two baths…plus the outdoor shower which is a godsend after the beach. If you are looking to relax and unwind, Canal House is your place. Debbie is an amazing host with history of the property and all the information you will need for great dining and any necessities. She’s not an email away…her cell number is on the refrigerator and she responds immediately. I use VRBO frequently for business and vacations. It is RARE to find a home this wonderful, accurately advertised and an owner so thoughtful and accommodating. We will definitely return.
