Great location and met all our needs.

We loved this place!!! It was clean and so close to the beach. There were 6 of us who stayed there (4 adults, 2 kids, and a dog). It was convenient having the laundry below, and the rooms were a great size. The only drawback was if you plan to get this place and get food to eat throughout the week, we had to use the shelf space in the tops of the closets to store non-perishables. Not a huge deal, but just be ready to be creative with space for food. We liked the resort, the area, and place enough that we may just look at one of their bigger options for next time.

Good location, Good Stay

Firat of all, this was a great location. My wife, my brother, and I had access to everything we wanted to do from here. The kitchen is works great for those that are planning to eat out. Not much in the way of cooking utensils or space, but we had read reviews and were prepared. It was enough space for the 3 of us. We fished a lot. The beds were minimally comfortable, the pillows not so much. Having to make the beds and empty the dishwasher when we arrived were unexpected, but no big deal. Easy access to the beach and in/out of the neighborhood were nice. I would stay again.

Love the Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at the East Cottage for many years and really like the location. Also, the staff are very friendly and helpful. I think just a few updates to the cottage would improve our stay. The ceiling fans all need to be replaced. We also would like to have the ice maker in the fridge to be operational. We did notice they had new fixtures in the bathrooms and updated covers on the beds Overall, a great location and nice place to stay. We'll definitely be back!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We always enjoy staying at Lighthouse View. We've been going there close to 20 years. The Pelican Place cottage is in a great location, close to the dune walkover and the pool. We also really like having a washer and dryer as part of the unit. We would like to see an updated refrigerator that has a ice maker. Also, since it sleeps 8, we would like to see enough living space seating for 8. The two couches in the unit only fit about 5 comfortably. We really like that they have switched to a keyless entry, it is nice to be able to access the unit without having to carry keys with you.

Heaven on the beach

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Marketing pictures don’t do justice. The property sits just off the beach. Listening to the waves crash all night was incredible. Plenty of room for our party in all 3 bedrooms. A little light on cooking accessories and equipment (bowls pans) but we managed.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home is close to the beach with a balcony view. It is not fancy, but clean and comfortable. There is a shared swimming pool and hot tub just a short distance away. The unit also has a washer/dryer and carport. My wife and I brought my daughter and three grand children with us and everyone enjoyed our stay. The property is close to many good restaurants and stores. The manager stayed in contact with us during our stay to make sure we had what we needed. I would certainly recommend this place to anyone and hope to come back some day.

Overall, a good stay with some room for improvement

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first-time stay on the OBX and we had a wonderful time. Some comments that may help others:1. The beach is highly eroded and the sand dune to access the beach is difficult to climb for older people or people with mobility issues. Once over the dune, you are met with little beach and houses halfway in the surf. At high tide, everyone was trying to fit onto the dune and it was hard to get past the houses in the surf.2. Every single window blind in the rental was broken. You had to manually maneuver each and every slat to open and close them.3. Carpet was filthy.4. When we arrived, the dishwasher was full of dishes.5. The TV remotes did not work - we had to call maintenance.6. The guests before us kindly set the two clock alarms to go off in the middle of the night, I guess as a joke.7. The swimming pool is small and shared with many other units. It gets packed.8. We had heavy rain and the road in front of the condo floods - be careful where you park!9. I'm assuming that the floors have no sound barrier because we could hear our neighbors as if they were in the same room with us.8. We rented bikes, but it is not safe to ride bikes in this town - the roads are too narrow and there are no bike paths.9. We did enjoy the location - being close to Avon and next to the national park and the lighthouse. However, I would not stay in this location again as there were too many units and not enough beach for everyone.
