Nice Place

Have stayed in several places in Carova, this is one of our favorites. The house was very clean and had ample space and amenities. Communication from the owner was great. Plenty of privacy and is on the south side of Carova, so it's closer to the 4x4 access. Would stay here again.

First time in Corolla

The house and location was amazing. The beach drive was long. It’s definitely not easy going back and forth to town it is not an easy drive. The house itself was great and had everything we needed. We were disappointed with the grill so we did not end up grilling out. Overall the house and location were perfect for us! We will definitely be back

Perfect beach getaway

We loved our stay at the property! Everything was extremely clean and this was a well-stocked home with excellent amenities and everything you need for a small or large group. It was a cooler time of year, but we still enjoyed beach walks and drives around where we would see the horses. The owners provided clear instructions and their info on airing down for beach access was essential!

Going to Carova/Corolla was a bucket list trip for me. It didn’t disappoint. I saw lots of horses, lazy days on the beach and relaxing afternoons and evenings. I highly recommend this property.

Refreshing

This lovely home is a peaceful haven from the typical busyness of a summer beach vacation. Everything was just as pictured. Driving on the beach was such a fun adventure and having wild horses visit the yard made for treasured memories. Although the upstairs air conditioning had just broken the day we arrived, the owners were quick to have the unit replaced. In the meantime, they had window units brought in to keep things cool, so we never experienced any discomfort. The ac repairman was very considerate as well. Response times were quick and all questions immediately answered by the owners. The home is picturesque, cozy, exceptionally clean, and beautifully decorated. The beds are soft, the living room is wonderfully comfortable, and the two screened-in porches are especially pleasant places to eat or relax. There's actually not a bad seat inside or outside the house! The owners have thought of everything imaginable: well-stocked pantry and supplies for every conceivable need. We highly recommend this house and would absolutely visit again!

Secluded Retreat

First off, I want to give a huge Thank You to the host's of Shore Relaxing!! The name of this property should set the tone for what is to come, on a vacation. The drive out on the 4 × 4 beach is beautiful, especially when we were greeted by the wild horses. The house is amazing & has this old, world charm about it but with the modern needs. )mThe feel of the home is open & airy when you walk in the door. It was stocked with everything we needed to cook & clean up afterwards, including a washer & dryer. The only thing we had to buy is our groceries. My family loved this place & all the memories that we made while there!!!

My family loved this house! My husband, son, and I brought our Coonhound and another couple to the beach! Everything was provided for our week! The house is so well stocked for cooking and hanging out at the house! The beds were comfortable, the living room furniture was comfortable, the house was perfect for 2 couples and a child! We truly enjoyed our week at Shore Relaxing!!

Thumbs Up

Honestly if these owners could run all of the rentals, that would be great! This place was cleaner than clean, almost every single thing was thought of and the furnishings are lovely. The addition of the antique pieces with the beachy items, just stunning. Most everything is here if you forget it, you have a back up. There are chairs and umbrella… things you must pack sunscreen, and towels. For those with Littles, the gates are amazing. You can actually sit down because they latch and close on every place, a child or dog may stray. Really great space. Intentional and much appreciated.

Magical

Carova Beach is magical - as if time stood still. In my opinion, this is one of the loveliest houses out there. It is SPOTLESSLY clean, it has everything you need and the old world style of the home is the icing on the cake. Couldn’t be any more relaxing. The beach is BEAUTIFUL and a two minute walk from the house. Be prepared! There is NOTHING in Carova Beach. Bring water and food unless you plan on going back and forth to the pavement which isn’t exactly easy. MIND THE TIDES when getting on and off. Travel at low tide especially if you are inexperienced with 4 wheel driving. A beautiful place - we will be back. Tires down to 18!!!

Gem in Paradise

Shore Relaxing is an amazing place. The house is absolutely beautiful and in a great location. We spent time hiking False Cape State Park (VA)...we found a gate to enter from NC. We also explored the Currituck Beach Lighthouse Park/Maritime Museum and hiked Currituck Banks Preserve. The wild horses made daily visits which excited, cautiously, our dog Roscoe. We look forward to a return to Shore Relaxing and would recommend to family and friends.

Serenity and Relaxation

From the start of our reservation through our stay the property owners were very responsive to any questions we had. The property was bright, spacious, very clean and perfect for our stay. We loved the ability to cook some meals and appreciated having some of the basic seasonings and condiments available. The location was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the 4 x 4 beach along with plenty of sightings of the wild horses. Perfect stay! We highly recommend this rental to anyone wanting to escape to a quiet remote area with all the amenities.

4WD and pups venture to OBX

Drove three days to come to OBX! Waited until Hurricane Lee had left the area and ventured out onto the beach. I drive a small 4WD SUV and yes folks, got stuck but my fault for driving up wrong "bridge" as they call them AND not engaging 4WD. Hints. Bring groceries! Instacart is almost non-existent. Air down! Met someone who helped me air down to 15 PSI, I was at 20-25, too high. The home is beautiful. The view from the master BR deck is astounding. The breeze is amazing AND seeing the Spanish mustangs running on the beach.....incomparable to anything I've experienced. Thanks again for allowing me and my two pups an excellent location to relax and drive on the beach!
