We feel anchored!

The property was beautiful and relaxing. There was access to anything we needed. The elevator was perfect for supporting our needs. The grand kids loved both the ocean and the pool. This was a perfect getaway!

We loved our week at Outer Banks. Our extended family traveled together- ages 8 to 80. It was perfect! The beach was beautiful and felt private, as there were rarely more than 5 other families nearby. The swimming pool gave a great alternative to the waves for the kids and the hot tub was an amazing way to relax in the evenings! Had everything we needed in the kitchen and the elevator made the whole house accessible to my elderly parents. Internet signal wasn't strong, but it allowed us to disconnect from work more easily - which is a good thing on vacation! Cell reception was fine so we connected as hotspots when required. Jay was extremely receptive and available when issues arose (we had one pool concern due to blowing sands, but he managed it immediately). Highly recommended! You won't regret it!

Perfect family vacation spot!

We have vacationed in the Outer Banks for many years and this was by far the best house we have stayed in! 10/10 cleanliness. We had four generations with us - from 80 years old to 2 years old - and the house accommodated us all perfectly! The elevator was extremely convenient for the ones who needed it and for carrying groceries/luggage to the upper levels. The host was very helpful and informative prior to check in and because of that we had no issues with the elevator. The pool was great and the heater was definitely worth the extra charge. The kitchen was very well stocked and multiple dishwashers and 2 refrigerators (including the second floor) was very handy with a large family. The views from the house and balconies are breathtaking and you can’t beat the location of being right on the beach!Thank you for hosting us Jay! We hope we get to book your house again. :)

Wonderful location

Location of house is fantastic. Only a few steps to the beach. Management responded to texts and issues quickly. We loved the town and relaxing atmosphere. House needs some serious deep cleaning and quite a few repairs. Rusted refrigerator and sink dumped at the corner of the house when going to the beach. For the price, expected the house to be in better condition.

Did not want to leave!

Our second time staying at this property, and loved it both times! House is right at the water's edge, so it's almost like being on a giant houseboat, seeing surfers go by your kitchen window! Loved watching the sunrises from the comfort of our bed, and the sunsets from the back deck. Host Jay is super responsive and communicative. House had a few minor maintenance issues, but was in great shape overall, especially considering its proximity to the ocean, and the hostile environment from the salt spray that goes along with that.

Always fun with family!!

This house is right on the sand! Has plenty of room and bathrooms for everyone! Has pretty much everything you need - even a nice high chair and crib! I do wish the pool heat was working - it is one of the reasons I booked it! My dad had to clean out the AC window unit in our room plus he had to clean out the dryer vent because the dryer would not dry our clothes. Also, a 4-wheel drive vehicle is required- there is so much sand in the driveway. We all loved looking at all the books - they were very entertaining! All in all, we had a great time and loved being right on the beach!

House was ok, the lay out is strange- thank goodness for the elevator. Pool: not able to use- temp due to unit issues and lots of sand. The rooms are small, and the upstairs is very small- the downstairs area needs to be cleaned better- level 2 areas I don't think were even touched by the cleaning service. Wonderful location- weather was miserable. Just some little things that need to be addressed but you can't change the size of the living area's. Just not real impressed with all the stairs.

Nice house and location

My family enjoyed our week. The weather didnt cooperate, but thats no ones fault. House clean, beds comfortable. On the beach, close to water. Kitchen equipped. Couldnt find a toaster. Two dishwashers in the main kitchen was a great feature! A few suggestions. Pool area needs some shade. An umbrella, an awning, something. Also, there are NO rails or ladders to get in and out of the pool. We had a disabled family member and no rails or ladder to assist getting in or out was an obstacle. The top floor balcony facing the ocean could use an awning also for shade. The elevator needs improvement as we were told to only use it sparingly. We were told It shuts down when used alot. Again, with a disabled family member was a bit intimidating for desired use.The wind was so strong it blew a lot of sand in the pool. Other than those suggestions we did enjoy our stay. Very nice home, with just about everything you need. We did see dolphins in the morning :)

What's not to love...

This was our first trip to Rodanthe and we are so glad we found this house for our stay. We are a large group of framily (friends & family) and pets that travel every year and this house was the best one we found in our 7 years. There was enough room for 6 adults, 4 kids and several dogs to gather comfortably for dinner and play but also to retreat privately whenever we wanted. The private decks and bedrooms are large and well decorated. The elevator came in handy when arriving and leaving but I preferred the steps to offset the lazy days on the beach. It was really nice to have 2 dishwashers in the main kitchen and the extra fridge in the lower level made for a perfect beverage hub. We lucked out and had no rain but there was plenty of room to still have an amazing vacation if we spent time inside. We took the kids to the Wright brothers memorial one day and another couple took a day and went to Ocracoke. The location is very central to exploration if you like day trips in addition to beach days. The kids enjoyed the pool and the bonus game rooms and walking to the pier for ice cream. Paul and Jay were very responsive and I feel like we even made a new friend in Paul who manages the property and lives close by. (His dogs even have great personalities) I would return to this house in a heartbeat and hope we get the chance to visit again. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Location is on point!

The location of this house is key! Its walking distance (like .5 mile down the road) to a pizza place, coffee bar and a surf shop. Beach area is clean and watching the surfers and sunrises/sunsets from the balcony was so cool! The pool and hot tub were great and used every day by the kids and adults. The only "downfall" is the stairs...so many stairs. But that is pretty much the norm for the Outer Banks area. Thankfully there is an elevator so the older folks used that most of the time. The rest of the family and kids used the stairs and had no issues with it. After the first day you get used to it. The beds were comfy. There are no black out curtains on any of the window in the bedrooms, so be ready for BRIGHT mornings! Make sure you come with all your own toilet paper, paper towel, kitchen towels, kitchen soap, regular soap, shampoo, etc. - None is provided. There are plenty of markets near the house to get whatever you need and the Dollar General store nearby is amazing - has almost all you will need - including dry foods. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here and would recommend booking this place. Also, the Rodanthe Pier is a short beach walk away. Go eat at "I got your crabs" in Kitty Hawk for good seafood! It was so good we drove out there twice!

Not quite what was expected

Overall, a good stay. To be fair, we arrived the day after the tropical storm blew through, so lots of sand everywhere. Property owner responded quickly to a clogged toilet and replaced a toaster oven when the other one wouldn’t work. Main microwave was not working, but a counter top microwave was provided. Heater in pool was not working which was disappointing ( managed to use it once, as well as the hot tub which is located in what looks like the garage area). Second floor of house appears to have been under water at some point. Terrible smell (mildew) in media room, foosball room and room with pool table. Very difficult to do much in this area due to smell. We were able to use the handicap accessible bed/bath…smell was not as strong and it worked out beautifully. The elevator was a Godsend as we had one member in a wheelchair. We only got one day at the beach due to the storm, but enjoyed sitting on the decks overlooking the ocean when the wind permitted. When you come, bring your own paper goods ( toilet paper, paper towels, etc.) as these are not provided. Don’t buy groceries at the general store on the way to Avon. We spent $295 for just a few items (think everything there is marked up twice as high as the grocery store (Food Lion in Avon and worth the drive). We got our fill of flounder and other seafood at restaurants on Rodanthe and one place in Avon. Again, overall we enjoyed our stay.

Multi-Generational Family Vacation

We enjoyed our week on the beach at this property. Some of the huge pros included that it's literal steps away from the beach, it has an elevator and accessible bedroom/bathroom for those with mobility issues (a godsend for my 95 year old grandmother), there are ample bedrooms/bathrooms for a multi-generational vacation, and there is a private pool and hot tub. A few of the cons included a pretty chaotic check in process. The check in was at 4, which I confirmed was okay when we were an hour away, but when my family arrived, the cleaning crew was still there because the previous occupants left the property late. While this is not the end of the world, we were told that the cleaners would be done by the 4pm check in so we were thrown off by this change. All this needed was some more open communication so I could make arrangements for my parents, 15 month old, and grandmother. Second, the house could use some TLC. There were exposed wires on the outside of the house, exposed nails on a few of the decks (which was hazardous for our little one), one of the dishwashers was corroded on the inside, and the thermostat was difficult to manage as it was locked and struggled to maintain a level temperature. The final thing that I wanted to mention is that while I absolutely respect anyone's decision of what to put in their home, having an entire bookshelf filled with right-wing conspiracy literature and altering the Roku channels so that it's only easy to find OAN and Newsmax runs a huge risk of leaving a sour taste in some renters' mouths when they arrive. While this didn't permanently impact our stay, it was enough to lead us to decide not to rent here again because we did not feel very welcome in the home.

Roaches, mice droppings, and an unethical owner- BEWARE!!

I can honestly say that we have stayed in the outer banks since I was 8, and I’m 40 now, and I have never been in a house this dirty. We killed over 15 roaches in the first day, and kept killing more each day during the week. I did message the owner, and his only response was, ‘ sorry for your troubles. We get it sprayed every 3 months.’ The owner referred to them as water bugs….these were NOT water bugs. They were German roaches. They were out in the middle of the day, and when we packed to leave, we tried to get make sure none were in our personal belongings, and every single family has had to kill roaches that got in our luggage. My son was sitting at the kitchen table eating lunch, and one crawled up his leg. There was also mice droppings everywhere. The elevator was a constant problem as well. The magnetic strips on the door would come undone when the main door closed, because it’s old and needs replaced, and an error would occur that required the maintenance company come out to reset the system. I have three people that need an elevator, and we didn’t have one the last three days of our stay. Now, almost three weeks after our stay, the owner is requesting we pay additional fees for ‘damages’ we didn’t make, service on the elevator, and had the audacity to message that the maintenance individual isn’t an elevator technician, but knows just enough to get by. That was his wording in the message on VRBO. I’ve since had to get VRBO involved- terrible!

Can’t get much closer to ocean than this one.

Beautiful location literally right on the ocean. Great views from all rooms. 3 stories are set up to accommodate multiple families. There are a lot of stairs to climb which may be challenging for some but there’s an elevator if needed. Everything was very clean. It was great being able to walk right out to the beach. Note that you’ll need all wheel drive vehicle for the driveway. Since this house is right on the beach the driveway is covered with sand. Overall beautiful house with lots of great amenities and very very clean.

Great stay

The home owner was great with getting back to me quickly with any questions I had. We got to meet the maintenance guy, Pauly, thanks to some pesky birds and he was great to work with and suggested places to go eat. The only thing I would change is for the second floor thermostat to be a bit cooler, especially at night, and the grill was nasty on the inside so we didn’t get to use it. The driveway is lots of sand but we knew that ahead of time so we were prepared for that. Overall we enjoyed our stay, sitting on the back balconies with the ocean view was our favorite thing to do.

Great Beach House to Rent in the OBX!

There were so many wonderful things about this beach house! The location cannot be beat as it is RIGHT ON THE BEACH! In addition, it has its own private pool and hot tub which we learned was really difficult to find in a rental house right on the beach! This house comfortably slept 12 people and we loved that all five bedrooms had their own bathrooms and televisions. There is three balconies on BOTH sides of the house which provides wonderful views of both bodies of water. In addition, both the owner and the maintenance man (who we had to call on twice) are quick to respond to texts and phone calls which is a huge help. Lastly, the location of this house in Rodanthe lends itself to exploring both the Northern and Southern ends of the OBX since this town is basically smack dab in the middle of the island chain. Although there were a few issues with this beach house, I would definitely recommend it to a group of 12 people looking for a rental house right on the beach!
