Outdoor kitchen was so dirty it is not useable. Between being right on the water, the trees overhead, and the storms, I am sure itâs impossible to keep clean. Even with that, I am giving it 5 stars. The location is amazing, the view is wonderful, and the house is fantastic. Close to restaurants, and saw plenty of wildlife right behind the house. The beach access point, shuttle and the teens who bring your beach gear to the beach were a pleasant bonus. This stay ruined all future beach vacations as it will be hard to match. Oh.. TVs were not smart TVs, but we were not there to watch TV. Would have been nice though for my special needs daughter, but still would give 6 stars if I could!
The house itself is even better than advertised-- spacious, located in a very private neighborhood and cul-de-sac, lovely views of the sound and really magnificent sunset views.
That being said, the property is not maintained properly and the management company did a poor job in preparing the house for our stay. There were a few major things that were unacceptable: the A/C system did not work and was not fixed properly even after a specialist came, the outdoor kitchen was filthy when we checked in and someone from the management company had to spend over an hour cleaning it for our use during our stay, beds and rooms were missing linens, and the lockbox system failed and needed new batteries during our stay. The first 3 days we were in the house we had to call the property management company every day. On the third day, when I expressed that this was unacceptable, the individual I spoke to claimed that they cannot predict things that need to be fixed. In reality, all of these things were specifically and explicitly listed as something for guests to address in the check-out instructions, so I think it is perfectly reasonable for the the property management company to ensure that it is set for guests checking in.
TL;DR the house is great, but if you have to contact the management company half the days during your stay, I might look elsewhere.
There were 10 of us and the house was very spacious and comfortable. The theater room sat 10 so we all had a comfortable recliner to watch movies from. The house is right on the Sound so the mornings and sunset are amazingly beautiful.
This is the perfect house for entertaining. Pool overlooking some of the most beautiful views in OBX. Amazing open kitchen, backyard ping pong table and sitting area. We will definitely be back!
