Initially, we were a bit nervous about not being Oceanside, but we quickly realized it was the perfect mix of ocean and sound waters! This place has everything you could ever dream of—an amazing kitchen, spacious and comfy bedrooms, a fun game room, and an incredible outdoor living space! Everything, from the pool to the hot tub to the living spaces, was sparkling clean. The canal location was a bonus for fishing, crabbing, and kayaking. There’s something for everyone to enjoy! The ocean is just a hop, skip, and jump away! We loved the privacy and seclusion of this spot. A definite 10/10 from the Aldrich family! Ron and Marianne are the sweetest and super responsive! We’ve been coming to OBX for years, and this house is hands down our favorite. We can’t wait to book again!
