Sunset Decks

the back deck off the kitchen was a great gathering place to watch the sunset in the West. One of our party was awaiting a hip replacement and found the elevator was a godsend. Beach in the morning, pool and cocktails in the afternoon. Lots of parking.

Perfect!

This is an amazing property which was perfect for our very busy family of 15! There is plenty of room to be together with the option to find a place of seclusion within the home for a solitude break! The top balcony is a perfect place for sunrise yoga. The pool was a big hit! There were pool toys there possibly left by a previous family. We added to the collection when we left. Location to the beach is very adequate. We travel frequently as a group. We all agreed that this home had everything we needed and more.

This property needs a lot of maintenance and updating! We had to call the cleaning crew back because it was filthy. Black mold around the outside shower area. Windows dirty, furniture very old and worn. Deck boards loose and uneven caused a trip hazard. Outside of the house is covered with dead bugs and cobwebs! Not good!

Disappointed

The only thing good I can say is that the kitchen was the best kitchen of any place I've rented before. They had everything you ever needed plus every cabinet was marked with contents. Many things not in repair: Elevator not working all week was the worst. My husband and I both needed it desperately (27 steps up and 27 steps down). Pool was never cleaned even though it should have been done twice within the week. Other issues were: fan not working, molding on upper deck had curled up at least 10 inches, molding missing and was a trip hazard, shower head needed replaced, broken toilet. Housekeeping wasn't done when we arrived i.e. garbage, beer cans, dirty socks, marijuana smell in a dresser, no kitchen towels, sand on downstairs couches, and food on floor. Most expensive house rented and the worst.

Thank goodness for the Location and Neighbors

Our vacation wasn't what we expected but it turned out to be pleasant after having most of our complaints addressed by management. We experienced quite a few hiccups such as as bathrooms not being cleaned, there were an abundance of spiders and flies in the pool area and surrounding the house which made difficult to enjoy the outside amenities. We addressed our concerns with management who quickly responded and came out to review the areas of in question. We also noticed hairs and dirty used wash rags in the bathrooms as well as a blood spotted pillow in the 3rd floor mastersuite. For the 1st 2 days the pool was not heated although we paid for it in advance and the hot tub did not have filters which caused it to be cloudy after 2 uses. The best part about staying at the house was the view from the top balcony and the location to the beaches and piers so that we could go fishing and enjoy the outer banks with our family and friends. We also enjoyed how spacious the house is in order to accommodate everyone who came.

So much space!

This property was amazing! So much room, great atmosphere and we LOVED the space in the kitchen. I brought my family down (22 total people) for my 40th and there was never a time when anyone felt crowded. We asked for the pool to be heated and it was a beautiful 86 degrees when we arrived. 5 minute causal walk to the beach and minutes from everything else. Can’t wait to go back!! I think this may be our new yearly tradition.

We loved the house and the location

Overall, this was a great house for our Outer Banks beach vacation. The house was perfect for a large group with lots of bedrooms and bathrooms. The beds were pretty comfortable. We loved the pool and the hot tub. The house is located pretty close to the beach access and we had no issues walking there to get on the beach. The only things with the house that need approving are: the TVs are extremely outdated. All the TVs need replacing. I think they should buy smart TVs and get rid of cable. All you really need is a strong internet connection and most people have their own streaming services they can log into with a smart TV. The internet connection was pretty SLOW. We had trouble connecting but we were not there to be on the internet all the time, so it was fine for most of us but if you needed to do any work, you might have had some issues with that. The outside of the house could benefit from some power washing as well. The decks were great for hanging out on and we played some games out in the front yard as well. Overall, we loved the house and the location and would highly recommend. Thanks for a wonderful week.
