Had a Blast!

My wife and I had a blast at John’s place. It was our first time to the 4x4 beaches and will be a visitor again. John’s place was fully stocked with anything we needed, wifi was fast, and was very clean.

House was very well maintained and kitchen was well equipped. The beds were very comfortable and bedding/pillows were clean and newer and you can tell they don’t skimp on that. House is a close to beach and the beach is beautiful. We saw the wild horses almost every morning near the house.

Amazing Stay

Amazing house where the horses roamed so close you could watch them from the deck with the ocean in the background. The house was brand new and gorgeous. The owners were very helpful with tips on how to get in and out during the tides and answered any questions quickly. You absolutely need a good car to get here! This house is a sure one to return to!

Get from crowded Carolla

This is a brand new beach house on the second row from oceanfront. We had a beautiful ocean view. This area is much less developed and built up than The rest of OBX. The house is very well stocked. We loved it.

The house could have been cleaner floors where dirty bathroom still had trash in can, and could have a few more towels for use, hot water was non existent. Shower was lukewarm at best. But overall house was sufficient for our stay and our friends enjoyed the experience of being right on the 4x4 area.
