OBX en vente! Toute semaine d'automne seulement 450 $ du samedi au samedi

This was the second year I rented this charming cottage. Location is extremely convenient, as it is just a short walk to a public beach access. We had some fluctuating weather, so being able to get to and from the beach within 5 minutes was handy. Add to it a neighborhood pool, which we put to use this year, and close proximity to stores and restaurants and we had a solid vacation week. Again, this place is small, but perfect for a small family or a couples' stay. I wish there was a revolving supply of necessities (condiments, matches, dishwashing soap, etc.) from previous renters, but that's life. A very pleasant stay, and I'd book it again.

Spent a wonderful week here. Quick walk to the beach and the pool was a great option when the waves got rough! Enjoyed the satellite TV on a couple of rainy nights and there's a selection of books too ( I read two!). The kitchen is well equipped and we enjoyed the barstools at the counter. Both bedrooms have ceiling fans and window A.C. units (the cover rattles a little but became like "white noise") - slept well! Plenty of towels and having bed linens provided too - super perk! Big challenge was sand; the outdoor shower at the pool wasn't working and the house doesn't have a hose available outside. Between the lack of way to get rid of sand and the rattling AC is why I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars. Great place to stay for a small family or 2 couples!

Sally is a very attentive host, promptly offered assistance with a few minor things upon our arrival and made sure we are satisfied with everything. We had a great time. A minute walk to the beach, community pool, and short driving distance from all the attractions in OBX. What more can you ask.

As far as value, I could not find a better deal for three guests. Thank you Sally, we may come back next Summer!

The little lavender house near the beach was perfect for this dad and his 9 year old. It's well kept, and the open floor plan makes it feel quite spacious for its size. Very comfortable. There's not a lot of extras, so bring your own or rent beach chairs, beach towels, umbrellas, etc (but that's fairly well disclosed in the descriptions). The good news is the house is so close to the beach, you can be there in 5 minutes! Which also means, you can run home for snacks or extra supplies/beach gear quite conveniently. The owner was very quick to respond to any questions or problems. We texted her because we were running early, and she double checked that the house was ready and gave us the code to get in before actual check in time. We were in the ocean 30 minutes before the 4:00pm check in! I had to take off a whole star because there's no half stars for just a couple picky things that I felt would have improved the experience: first there was no outdoor shower or hose to rinse off sand at the house. There's one at the shared pool, but it was out of service (according to the neighbors). Having even a hose at the house for our feet would have cut down on the daily sweepings to keep up with all of the tracked-in sand. We never did use the Sea Retreat shared pool, so I can't comment, but it looked nice and well maintained. The other super picky complaint, and not necessarily the owner's fault, was the lack of kitchen supplies like foil, matches, or condiments...again not something required, but oh so handy when they are there. I made sure to leave extra TP, paper towels, ketchup, mustard, foil, and sandwich bags for the next guest. I guess that's more of a thing I expect a good guest to do. Anyway, this house was about as perfect for our trip as I could have imagined. It's close to stores, restaurants, and of course the beach. The cozy size was suitable for the 2 of us, but it would probably be nice for a family of 4. The kitchen is separated from the living room by a counter with stools, so no one need be left out of a movie, board game, or conversation while they are fixing meals. The beds were comfortable and they had plenty of pillows. The A/Cs combined with fans kept the temps in the comfort range. I'd definitely rent again.

We had a great time in the house this year. Sally was very responsive when we texted her for anything. It is fantastic to have a place that already stocks linens and towels and beds are made. One less thing to pack. It is a cute small house depending on the number of people one has. The house has all the basic necessities. It is really just about 1 block to the beach. We would definitely stay there again.
