AvaRating, 5 stars1 week ago

This was such a wonderful experience! The house was beautiful and spacious, and the host is so generous and thoughtful 😊 so thankful for all accommodations and a very helpful/resourceful host. There's a reason why this place stays booked!! If you're looking for a special vacation, this is the one! I'd love to come back next year ❤️

Picture Perfect soundfront getaway

LaurenRating, 5 stars4 days ago

This was the perfect getaway for our small family of three to have our first Outer Banks vacation. We loved being on the sound and being able to enjoy the outdoors and the water during nap time and in the evenings when our baby was asleep. The guest house is perfectly sized aged, a great amount of space, And baby friendly, which was fantastic. Ryan was also great about providing some baby necessities for us so we didn’t have to travel with too much. Highly recommend this location.

"DownWinder” Oceanfront Retreat

BethRating, 5 stars1 day ago

This was our second year staying at the Downwinder and once again it was extremely enjoyable! The oceanfront views from the deck and big windows just can't be beat. This house has a great open concept living with unobstructed views of the ocean from the entire main living space and master bedroom. The house is modern and updated, inside and out. We love the deck walkway right from the house, over the dunes and right down to the beach. The shower and foot rinsing faucet at the end of the walkway is super convenient. Absolutely perfect for our family of four! Falling asleep to the sound of crashing waves is pure serenity. Do yourself a favor and book this home for your next vacation...you won't regret it!

Cottage in Rodanthe

Surf shack Rodanthe

SeanRating, 5 stars4 days ago

Scooters place is very unique, a peaceful setting and very private, virtually one of a kind. You’re going to love it. It’s warm in the daytime but delightful in the evening and early morning. You’ll hear the sounds of chirping birds and frogs. This is one you don’t wanna miss. There’s just something magical about all those antique surfboards in the loft above you. we are definitely headed back again.

Bethany's Joy King Suite in Southern Shores

kateRating, 5 stars1 week ago

This was a wonderful stay! It is in a cute and quiet neighborhood, but a quick drive to Duck for restaurants and shopping. Perfect central location. The patio is gorgeous and the hot tub was so nice at the end of the day. Rhoda gave us lots of great restaurant recommendations, and set us up for success. They provide a beach parking pass and beach chairs/umbrella. She even wrote our names on a sign and mugs in the kitchen! It was all very thoughtful and appreciated. The airbnb is connected to the hosts' house, not a separate building, but they keep the only connecting door locked. Also, the door to the actual airbnb does not lock, but it was a very safe neighborhood so I wasn't worried.
