Fun in the Sun!

We had a great family vacation and this house and location were perfect for us. Between watching free movie night at the Cavalier, the beach, the water park, the fireworks - it was a fun filled week!

The perfect VRBO

I loved everything about this home. From the beginning Robb very easy to communicate with. The house itself was exactly as pictured, very clean, great appliances and cookware. Main living area was perfect size for our family group. Location can’t be beat!

Perfect Family Beach Vacation

We had a wonderful stay! It was the perfect house for our family of 6 adults and one child. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable, and there was plenty of space in the living room, dining area, and kitchen for us to gather and relax together. Robb was incredibly helpful, friendly, and provided excellent communication about the property and the surrounding area. The house exceeded our expectations in every way. It was very well stocked with everything we needed for the beach, which made our planning and packing for spending the day on the beach much easier. The short, easy walk to the beach was a huge plus, and we loved that the beach itself was beautiful and not overcrowded. The neighborhood was lovely - just outside the touristy area but still close enough to enjoy the boardwalk, restaurants, and shops. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better vacation rental experience. We highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay!

Awesome, as always!

We have stayed here 4-5 times already and we love it, we keep coing back. This is a really nice house: close to the beach and a great quiet neighborhood, no pets and hypoallergenic everything (we need that!), convenient lay out with 2 master bedrooms, enough bathrooms for everybody, fully stocked kitchen, everything is provided like luxury shampoo (which I always forget). Rob is an amazing landlord: always responsive, whatever the issue, always on top of things. He installed the baby gates just because we asked about them. And we just used them years later, again. Also, all the beach gear is there, which is no small thing that you do not have to bring with you: 2 wheel carts, umbrellas, toys, and chairs. LInens and towels are also provided, in great numbers :) And the house also has an outside shower, which is great. Highy recommend!

Nice house with short walk to uncrowded beach.

My family had a great time at Croatan Beach. The house was on the corner of the road that led directly to the beach access path. We enjoyed walking to the beach for the day, and then again for a nighttime stroll. Great family vacation.

Great property and location for work travel

Our team was attending local conferences and found the amenities perfect for work and relaxation. The owners were very responsive to our needs and made the whole process simple and easy for us to rent and access the property individually. Great location, clean, and good layout for four co-workers. We enjoyed our stay and will be back next year!

Great Family Vacation House

This property is located within a quick walk to an uncrowded beach. The owner has appointed the house very well - we cooked our meals almost every night there and had everything we needed for preparation. The garden is amazing too! It's obvious that this is a well-tended home.

House was immaculate. Great location for beach and activities. We would definitely recommend this to others. Stairs could be hard for those that have issues with climbing or breathing. Great vacation.
