OBX getaway

Wanted something close to the beach and attractions but a little bit away from the main spots and that’s exactly what this is. Very nice place and very clean, perfect for two people. Would definitely stay here again.

Love this place.

Love this place and location. Clean and comfortable. Especially appreciated the kitchen drawers/cabinets being labeled as it helped finding things as well as returning items to their proper spot. Furniture was comfortable as well as bedroom accomodations. River views were gorgeous. Really enjoyed our stay and bookmarked to return.

Great host, house and location!

My husband, Labrador retriever and I stayed for two weeks and loved the house. The location is fantastic with a short walk to the beach and to the restaurants and shops in Duck. We loved the neighborhood and made friends with the neighbors too :) The owner was very responsive and kind. We would definitely rent here again :)

Perfect!

It was a quick 2 night trip and perfect for what we wanted. Gorgeous views, close to beach access, close to a perfect sunset view, even close enough to stores while also being private and away from the hustle and bustle. We fully enjoyed our stay - the bed was very comfortable as was the other furniture. Big bathroom with excellent shower pressure. Kitchen stocked with all we needed. We were able to make a full meal without issue. Appreciated the complimentary snacks and water bottles. Very quiet and peaceful area and the few neighbors we saw were very friendly. Highly recommend!

The property was so peaceful. I regret not bringing my paddleboard but enjoyed the pier out back. The apartment was so clean and well equipped. John was available for any questions and recommendations when needed. Definitely recommending to friends and returning. The neighborhood was stunning, quiet and easy to access anything near by. Thank you so much for a great weekend.

Lovely relaxing stay in Southern Shores

I had a lovely, relaxing and quiet stay at John's property. It's located on a beautiful cul de sac that backs up to a canal - saw a Snowy Egret looking for frogs twice. The trees around the yard are full of singing birds. It's a great location without all the traffic and noise of the beach. Really comfortable bed and living room. I'm sure I'll be back.

What a special spot!!!

This apartment was just the best. It had everything you would need and more. We were there for a short visit and it was the best. We visited all the marinas and parks in Southern Shores and enjoyed the beach. Supplying the pass for these sites was an unexpected plus. Thank youmWe hope to return for a longer stay next time.
