Pictures online did not do this house justice. House decorated nicely and the rooms were a good size. We didnât feel cramped at all. Check in and out was smooth. Kitchen was well stocked. Access to the beach was great. We would definitely stay here again. Loved the welcome package for us and the dog.
This unit is one of 4 right on the beach with stairs up and over the dune to the ocean. No ocean view since they are one story hunkered down behind the dune. There is a space on top of the dune to sit, however. My only complaint was I had to mop something sticky off the kitchen floor when we arrived as it seemed the cleaners had not mopped. Linens are not provided but the hosts gave us a recommendation for a local rental company that is reasonably priced. The beds and furniture were comfortable. The TV and wifi worked fine. There is lots to do nearby. I believe we will book one of these units again.
This is the third time I've stayed in these cottages. The location is great with easy beach access and a great restaurant within walking distance. Easy communication with the host.
Perfect location. Close to beach and other attractions. A cabin experience rather than condo experience. Fun like camping with electricity and running water close by.
Dog-friendly two bedroom bungalow is perfectly situated to the beach, attractions, restaurants and such. Five small units are tucked between a large three-story house and a public access to the beach. My unit couldâve used updating and a really thorough cleaning before occupancy.
Lovely old-style beach cottage just steps from the ocean⊠Gar Brooks was perfect for the two of us and the pup. The dune is high, so thereâs no view from the porch, but itâs literally out the door, up the steps onto the dune, and there it is⊠a very nice stretch of beach leading down to the waves. Nice kitchen is well-equipped, and the location is great; close to shops and restaurants but tucked away from the hustle and bustle. The cottage was very clean and comfortable with a casual feel thatâs just what we want at the beach. Owner left a nice little goodie bag that included treats us and for the dog. Hope we can visit again!
The cottage is adorable and well kept. It is convenient to grocery stores and restaurants. Loved the beach access and used it frequently during this rainy week which allowed us to maximize our beach time.
The cottage was just as described. It offered all the comforts of home and the location was perfect. The private beach access was wonderful, and we loved the chaise lounge chairs at the top of the private dune. The cottage was clean. I would recommend a door mat inside the kitchen door and working latches on the screen doors. We had our dog with us, and he could push the screen doors open with his nose. We would definitely stay again. The host was very friendly and kind. Thank you for sharing your cottages!!
The home is great! It was clean and comfortable. Mr Manson sets the standard for homeowners. Weâre hoping to come back in 2024 and rent both Gar Brooks and Tina Tuna for a family vacation.
We were pleasantly surprised when we saw our cottage, Gar Brooks. The pictures online did not do it justice. The cottage was cozy and charming. Private access to the beach was great. If we return to the Outer Banks, we would definitely stay here again. The welcome package, and treats for our dog were a nice surprise.
I was looking for a peaceful week long retreat and Gar Brooks was perfection! Steps from the beach, my dog and I enjoyed daily walks, sunrises and sunsets. The wifi allowed me to get a bit of work done and the kitchen was well appointed for cooking. We canât wait to visit again!
