Perfection!

Really enjoyed our stay. Home was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed to make our stay perfect. We enjoyed the view of the canal and the quietness of the community. We visit the Outer Banks frequently and Colington Harbor has become one of our favorite spots to stay. We would definitely stay in this home again!

Perfect Place

We very much enjoyed our stay in the Outer Banks. The home is in a gate community just a stone's throw away from the Wright Brothers' Memorial and in easy driving distance of most of the places to visit in the Outer Banks. We did make the drive to Hatteras, but did not take the ferry over to Ocracoke, as that would have been a bit too far for the children in our group.The home was perfect our size family (two adults, five children) and we enjoyed our stay immensely.

Beautiful clean cozy home with gorgeous views of the water. Relaxing getaway, even in the chilly weather. We enjoyed the beach, Aquarium, Kitty Hawk Kites and hiking at the nearby woods preserve. Would love to come back and kayak. Family is very kind, allowing us to open a brand new game.

Family Weekend

We had such a great time staying here. My husband and I came down with our baby. My inlaws came over to stay with us too. We had a great time on the docks, caught some crab and fish, and really enjoyed the views from the deck. The rooms were lovely, and the property had all the small touches that make a stay great. We will be trying to stay again!

Quaint and great outside space

I took my 97 year old mom who spent time in the Nags Head area in her youth. The owner did a nice job and renovating the living area—great kitchen. Lots of outdoor deck space for privacy and games. Overlooks waterway with a beautiful dock. The 3 kayaks made it a lot of fun as we boated into the Sound. Safe and secure neighborhood with the neighborhood feel and close enough to beach and wright brother memorial.

Beautiful Home - Perfect Location

My family and I enjoyed our stay at this lovely home over the Thanksgiving holiday. This home is so cozy & comfortable. We cooked most of our meals in the kitchen that had all of the utensils, pots & pans & dishes needed to make complete meals. The home was spacious for our group of 4 adults that we were able to relax in the living room, family room & enclosed porch. The beds were super comfortable. The master bathroom was nicely updated. The location is great - only 15-20 minutes to all of the places we wanted to visit.

Good location

The weather did not work in our favor at all. However, all was not lost b/c the home was cozy and we enjoyed a different type vacation inside. We passed the time playing games and reading in the interior room where we could see the canal. We watched tv comfortably on the couch. The owner communicated and helped us with any questions. I would return and if the weather worked out better, would be excited to try out the kayaks!

The milultiple deck areas to relax and dine were nice. Kitchen had a lot of things if you wanted to cook. The outdoor shower is nice, though we did not use it. Lots of recreational items. Owner gave us info about activities during thw lle week. It was nice to be able to adjust temperatures for air conditioner! we've stayed in tenneesee where it was limited and we were uncomfortably hot trying to sleep. Locals were all friendly and waved as we drove by. Kind people everywhere! Very nice and would stay here again!

Totally Fab!

This is a fantastic, roomy house along a beautiful canal. We enjoyed spending time on the various decks and rooms. It's tastefully and warmly decorated. Comfortable and clean, and the photos do not lie. We enjoyed just relaxing I this quiet and clean community, kayaking the many canals, and having some gear (kayaks, chairs, small beach towels) as part of the rental. We loved this home! Saw a little northern lights and the comet during our stay. Also - the washer/dryer and fridge/freezer, master shower were big and beautiful. This home has lots of personality and we would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone (as long as they can do steps). We wish we could have stayed longer! There wasn't much communication via VRBO site, but we did receive good info sent directly to us by text before we left, and direct communication was very good!
