Wonderful stay

We loved our stay! Beautifully decorated home, clean and well stocked. The outdoor shower was very nice to have- didn’t get to enjoy the back yard/deck as much as we hoped due to flies/mosquitos. 10 min nice walk to the beach. Great location - loved the beach in PKS and loved being able to easily get to other areas- Beaufort and Morehead City becam our favorites!

Summer vacation

Our first visit to the “Crystal Coast”. We usually visit OBX for our summer vacation, but wanted to try a new spot this year. This house was perfect for us. The cleanliness, location and small details of this property made our vacation even better. Truly a home away from home.

Great beach home

I think the house was really comfortable and accommodating. owners were very nice to work with. Overall, very positive experience. One minor critique is to have a noon checkout time given the price. Other than that we were really happy with our weekend there.

Ultimate Relaxation

This was our second time staying at this property. It was even better the second time, with the addition of the backyard living space and outdoor shower! We can't say enough about how much we love staying in this house. The space is perfect, the kitchen is well stocked, it's easy to get to the beach and the sound, and it's just so cozy and relaxing. We hope to be back for our third visit soon!

Great vacation

The house was great! Good location (5 minute walk to beach or parking pass to drive instead), beach chairs, wagon, and an outdoor shower to wash it all off when you get home. There’s ann extra fridge and ice maker in the garage. The house was beautifully decorated. Screened front porch with swing, cute backyard with a grill. Really the perfect place. We hope to stay again.

Great stay!

Loved this property! The house was very clean, was decorated nicely and felt private although there were many houses around us. The backyard was lovely and a nice addition for the kids to play. Both king beds were firm but very comfortable. Our 6 and 7 year old slept on the trundle beds and were more than comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with great appliances. We really had no problems at all. PKS is our favorite vacation spot and we are sure to return to this home!

Paradise Found!

Our recent stay was absolutely perfect. The house was beautifully appointed with everything we needed for a relaxing beach vacation. The kitchen was well-stocked and the living area was spacious and inviting. The location was unbeatable, with direct beach access and stunning ocean views. We spent our days swimming, sunbathing, and fishing. The house was also close to great restaurants and shops, making it easy to explore the area. The owners were incredibly helpful and accommodating. They were always available to answer questions and ensure that we had everything we needed. We would highly recommend this beach house to anyone looking for a memorable vacation.
