The benefits of saltwater swimming pools: • Because they have lower chlorine levels, salt water pools are much gentler on the eyes and skin. • Salt water pools also produce softer-feeling water, which many find desirable. • Because the salt cells produce enough chlorine as needed, the pools require far less maintenance when compared to traditional chlorinated swimming pools.

Great Location.
House was super clean. Pool was bigger than most in the area. Only complaint is that the furniture in the house could use some updating.

Beach trip
Overall, the proximity to the beach is the best! Five minute walk. We were however disappointed with the cleanliness. Very buggy, lots of spiders, top of refrigerator full of bugs… Very outdated and needs an upgrade. There were two beach chairs that were both broken. Chairs on the deck broken. Would not stay here again.

Summer break kick off
We took our 4 children, and close family friends and their 2 children to OBX to kick start summer vacation! The pool was the selling point of this house, and it did not disappoint!! Loved the distance to the beach, about a 5 minute walk which was perfect for the little ones. The updated TV in the living room was awesome as well for the boys who wanted to play video games and watch sports at night. Overall, this is our favorite stay in OBX. Will definitely be booking for next year! See ya next year Crab Quarters!!

Perfect Pool and location
We loved our stay at Crab Quarters! The pool was amazing for all of the kids and wonderful break from the beach when needed.
Very easy walking distance to the beach (maybe 5 mins tops) on a trex boardwalk. Loved the trees around the property that give it a private feel. Good kitchen working space. Plenty of deck space too! Could use a few updates to the TVs and would suggest replacing the wicker furniture with a nice pull out sofa/chairs. Would definitely look to return again!

We'll be back
We absolutely loved the property, location, and area. The house was beautiful and the pool was amazing. Everything was very clean and the hot tub was hot. It was just a short walk to the beach on a newer boardwalk. The house was in the perfect location for a short drive to food or shopping. We loved this property and are already looking to come back next summer

Great time!
This was our first time at the beach in a while and we had a great time. The weather was perfect and the house and location were great! The only complaint we had about the property is not having a gas grill. We will definitely stay in this house in the future again and will just rent a grill prior to the week (we tried to rent one and they were sold out). The pool was amazing and the house was very clean!!

Crab quarters review
House was better than pictures! Everything was clean and house was in a great location just 0.25 miles to the beach. Pool was huge! Bathroom by the pool came in handy. This was our first time going to OBX and would defiantly go back to this house again!
