Very Enjoyable

My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. The property was very clean!! It made me a little nervous to receive the detailed information just prior to arriving (as I was driving and I didn't arrive until it was dark outside), but it all worked out.

Always a Wonderful Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The lighthouse view has yet to disappoint. We’ve stayed in a number of units over the years and are impressed with the cleanliness, amenities, and service. This place is the best kept secret in Buxton with views of both the sound and the ocean.

Cozy and Comfortable!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My four teens and I very much enjoyed our recent stay here! Our 2 level cottage gave us plenty of room to spread out and we were only a few steps to the beautiful beach. The cottage was extremely clean and the AC was right on point after a day in the sun. The close location to nearby CH lighthouse and restaurants also a big plus! Was nice to be in a more private setting but Avon with fishing pier and more restaurants/shops only 10 min drive away.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was just as described. Upstairs the kitchen and den were comfortable. The bedrooms too. The unit was very clean upon arrival. It’s nice to have 2 1/2 baths. We enjoyed the deck especially in the afternoons. It is also nice to be able to get clean towels as you needed them. We liked visiting Cape Hatteras Lighthouse , Jockey Ridge and ferry ride to Ocracoke and Cedar Island . The staff recommended some good restaurants.

Not as Reviewed

The kitchen only had paper towels and coffee filters. The coffee maker ran over making a mess the first 2 mornings. We got a replacement after 2nd mess. The bathroom we used had only 1 hand towel and tiny soap slivers to bathe with. We were expected to make our own beds upon arrival. The sheets were scratchy and the beds agonizing. After waking up in pain 3 mornings we left 2 days early. The beach was non existent not due to the property’s fault but they could have notified us that we wouldn’t be enjoying a beach vacation.

Location & management awesome! Cleanliness questionable

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We absolutely love the Outer Banks and Buxton gets you away from the touristy and heavily trafficked areas, which is great if you’re looking for complete peace and quiet like we were. The villa’s proximity to the beach is unbeatable, but it also backs on to the road so every now and again there’s traffic noise. The only thing we didn’t love was the cleanliness of the lodging. There was dog/cat poop on the entry steps and balcony of our villa, dog/cat hair covering the couches and carpet, and the window frames were rotting/moldy and leaked during a storm that blew through (especially in the master bedroom). We cleaned the place ourselves the first day to make it feel a little more comfortable and washed all the dishes before using them to remove old grease/food. Thankfully the location made up for the pitfalls of the accommodation and we spent most of our days outside enjoying the reason that we came - amazing people free beaches and open space.

Nice place close to beach.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a good experience, we loved the location and easy access to beach. It was also quiet after 10 pm so nice if you’re traveling with kids. The cottage we stayed had items that were not up kept. The bathroom floor had a rotted area you could not step on. There was a hole in the wall by kitchen. And we did have a cockroach crawling on our ceiling.
