Quality Property

We were very happy with the customer service of Carolina Shores. The house location was excellent, and the property was good for our family. We certainly would recommend this company and location.

Perfect OBX getaway

This was our second time staying at Windrift and it was lovely as usual. I have nothing else to ask for in a vacation home in Corolla. The home was perfectly cleaned upon arrival and the house is equipped with all the necessary kitchen needs. The major draw for us is the location. The beach is just a two minute walk away and the Harris Teeter is within walking distance. The washing machine broke during our visit and management was quick to address and resolve. Thank you again and we will be back next year!

Location was the best thing about the house. Ants, dirty, odd sandal under dresser, used dryer sheets under bed, dust everywhere. Bathroom sinks had hair from a men's razor in both full bathrooms.

This house was everything we wanted and expected

The location of this vacation home is perfect- just a quick walk to the beach. The house was clean, the kitchen is fully stocked and the beds were comfortable. The laundry doors were frustrating to open and close but that was the only thing to complain about. We felt pretty awful that the sink cracked when weight was put on it so that was an unfortunate incident. Carolina Shores was friendly and a pleasure to deal with.

Great Place, but...

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: the house was not cleaned properly upon our arrival. We tried to address with the property management company every day we were there and was unable to speak with a manager. The house is great, and it would have been a great stay if it were cleaner and we didn't have to pester the management company.

Clean, comfortable, beachy

This has all the basics needed for a perfect beach get-away. This house was brightly lit, well arranged, with a comfortable deck and screen porch. The furniture in the main living area was clean and appeared to be tailored for the beach. The beds were some of the most comfortable we have ever stayed in in any rental house. It appears there were some recent upgrades to the floors and the kitchen. The house is an easy walk to a beach of the lifeguard. We loved that we could park our open top Jeep under the house in case it rained so that we could keep it all set up for 4x4 beach.

Met our needs but didn't surpass them

This property met our needs but didn't surpass them. The location to the beach is great (the access path is right across the street) and it's nice that the bedrooms were separate from the living space and kitchen. But there were no bicycles like the listing mentions and the provided beach chairs were super crappy and non-usable. We brought our own linens which worked out well since I heard of bad quality sheets and towels being provided for our neighbors. Bathrooms are outdated and the deck needs some new paint and furniture, but everything worked well enough for us to have a relaxing and enjoyable time. We enjoyed our stay and we would consider coming back to this location again.

A peaceful vacation

We had a perfect week! When we arrived the rental was clean and cozy. Loved the beach decorations. The house needs a few updates but it didn’t take away from the property at all. The short walk to the beach really made it a perfect spot for us. We enjoyed beautiful views and amazing sunsets. A few things to consider, the check in time is very late, it should be moved to 2:00 instead of 4:00, it seems as though you lose an entire day. The other suggestion is for the key to work for the first door to avoid having to climb two sets of stairs to open the door to the house. We would recommend this beautiful home to a family who is looking for a peaceful quiet beach and cozy home. We didn’t want to leave❤️

Dated, but clean and close to the beach

Good communication with Carolina Shores up until the actual day of check-in. We arrived well before closing, had called in advance, but upon arrival, the office was closed. Keys were in drop box, but we had a couple of questions. House itself was clean and the location wa great. The furniture is dated, as was the decor and bathrooms. The kitchen appeared to be updated. The rest was like entering a time capsure from the mid-1990's. There was no working TV, the wifi was spotty but worked most of the time. Overall, a no frills, but so close to the beach house.
