Dream Vacation!!! We would stay again!!

What a fantastic home! This home is spacious, beautifully decorated and had all the amenities we needed. The kitchen had everything for our group of 14. The choice of three coffee machines kept our morning gatherings relaxed and enjoyable. The double oven came in handy with our larger meals. The living room was plenty large and comfortable for our 8 adults to be seated. The large coffee table allowed us to do two 1000 piece jigsaw puzzles (provided). The decor in the living spaces allowed us to feel very connected to the OBX. The 6 bedrooms were large and all had ensuites. All the bedrooms were very comfortable. The grandchildren enjoyed the bunk beds and fell asleep each night exhausted from their cousin time. The recreation room on the ground floor was perfect for our ping pong tournaments. The ice machine on this floor was essential. The elevator was used sparingly but was appreciated for moving groceries, etc between floors at the beginning and end of our stay. The sunrises at this property were spectacular! The beach and beach passes were used daily in the morning hours and the pool was completely shaded by 3p allowing for up to 8 hours of water time each day. The wild horses were on the property daily, one morning there were 10 of them sleeping just outside the property fence! It was a 30 minute drive to get off the beach, we only made the trip a couple of times. The owner was extremely responsive to all of our communication and needs. Thank you for a wonderful week!!

Great house, great location, fantastic host

This property is incredible, and the host couldn't have been better. The house looks incredible in the listing and turned out to be even better than the pictures. Barbara was easy to work with, a great communicator, and helpful as I planned our trip. It couldn't have been better! The house is even nicer than the pictures. The floors are gorgeous, and it looks like every wall has been freshly painted. There are nice touches everywhere. Unlike other (many?) rent houses, the kitchen is well stocked with silverware and dishes, and the quality of knives and equipment isn't lacking. There's pride everywhere you look in the house. We appreciated the beverage coolers, and the second full size refrigerator. It's an easy walk to the beach and we appreciated the chairs and equipment. The wild horses hung out around the property and the various balconies gave us the best views. When we left, all families were asking when we'd return. We'll be back!

The best family vaca!!!

We had the most amazing stay! The beach was definitely something you should see once in your lifetime. My children were in “happy tears” over the magical sight of the wild horses that grazed all around the house and nearby dunes. The house itself was clean with plenty of space for our family and children. We loved the ice maker on the ground level - genius addition to the home! All of the instructions were easy to understand and check out rules are pretty standard and easy. The host was great at communicating and informing us of everything we needed to know and was helpful during our stay. Would absolutely stay here again!

Relaxing, Fun at the Beach, Pool at this fantastic Corolla beach house

The house, pool and hot tub were perfect, We had five kids, 8 adults and had plenty of room in the house. Incredible views, wild horses, easy walk to the beach and you can take your car to! We stayed a couple days in Nags Head and Kitty Hawk but this home in Corolla was by far the best place to stay. Our host was so accommodating. Our entire group gave this five stars. Our memories playing on the beach as a family are incredible.

Great Vacation Home

We had a wonderful visit. The host Barbara was excellent and provided a lot of information prior to our visit and answered questions quickly during our visit. The house was very clean, spacious, decorated nicely, and had everything we needed. The 2nd full size refrigerator was very helpful and so was the ice maker. The elevator was great to have to bring up groceries to the kitchen on the top level. Horses came by the house every day. We drove to the beach every day, but also walked back to the house during the day as needed. The house was perfect, we would love to stay here again!

Nice getaway with lots of space

We loved the location of the house. It was so cool to see all of the wild horses and they woild come right up to the house. The ride on the beach was crazy and we had no problem with the vehicles we had (ford expedition, chevy Silverado, dodge ram, and honda passport). We did see a lot of people stuck on the beach in their vehicles fair warning make sure your car is 4 wheel dri e and that you air down. The house was perfect so much space to fit all of us and the pool was nice. There were great views from the balconies and going to the beach was a breeze with the parking passes provided. The owner was quick to response and helped if I had any issues or questions. Overall it was a great experience and we would all gladly stay again.

Great Location

We had an excellent visit. We found everything we needed at the house. Beautiful views and easy access to the beach. The weather didn't always cooperate, but we had the pool and hot tub to fall back on. Our grandkids had a great time and kept very busy between the pool, ocean and sand. We had a few questions for Barbara along the way and received immediate responses. Great hostess!! They have parking permits available for the beach but the walk from the house was so convenient, that we didn't ever use them.

North Shore Dream

We had a great time in an amazing home. It is a unique experience staying on the 4x4 beach but we all loved it. The beach is easy to get to from the house via vehicle or walking and when you are there the view is perfect. Seeing the horses almost every morning made it even more priceless. We will definitely put this on the list for the years to come.

Best Vacation Ever!

Been to the Outer Banks 4 times and have stayed in different places each time. This house takes the cake. It was perfect. 6 bedrooms each with their own bathroom, elevator was a pleasant surprise, and the house was spotless. Ice machine was awesome along with the extra fridge on the first floor. Barbara has the house stocked with everything you'll need to cook big dinners, or small lunches, and everything in between. Barbara was easily the most accessible homeowner we've had as well. She makes sure everything up to snuff when we arrived, gives great recommendations for things to do, and responds almost instantly. If you want to unplug and enjoy the 4x4 beach then this is the spot. Driving to the beach takes 20 seconds, and if you need to walk it is only about 3-5 minutes. We love the 4x4 bc it is spacious. You can keep your eyes on the kids and they have endless sand to play in. The only downside to the week was having to drive to the hospital twice. My son got swimmers ear (Duck has a walk in clinic not too far) and my wife's aunt got stung by a sting ray (Hospital in Kitty hawk is about an hour and a half. Book this house if you want the best week of your life.

Wild horse adventure

The property is perfect, well appointed and equipped. The drive there and back was super fun. We had three 4x4 pickups, BMW X5 And Subaru AWD. Had no problems with transportation and we went to Duck several times. The upper deck has great view of the ocean. Pool location meant that in late afternoon it was shaded so we our rhythm was beach in morning through noon and then when the sand got too hot we did pool with no need to sunscreen. Best thing is the location, no roads means no road noise. Only thing you hear is the ocean. We loved this trip and the luxurious house made it easy for our 14 to relax and enjoy.

Bucket list experience

Booked almost a year in advance for an family reunion. What a dream experience and comforting welcome. Its is a half hour on sand to stores. So it best you bring what you need including lots of water, ice, trash bags, laundry solutions, TP, towels, extra linen, pillows etc. no such thing as a quick run. Ice did not work on 3rd floor kitchen which was an annoyance. Other than that if you want a get away in a clean beautiful home this is the place to escape to see wild horses and take in the beach. Thank you hosts!

A little piece of heaven

This property was amazing. Clean, stunning views, and great communication with the property owner. Only thing to consider is traveling on the beach for almost 5 miles was a struggle for us. Although we have never done this before so it was definitely a new adventure for us. If we plan to come back we will definitely rent a legit 4x4 vehicle such as a jeep. We had a rav 4 sport which did ok but we did get stuck a couple of times. Wonderful vacation spot.

Amazing Experience!

What a fantastic trip! This was our first time to the Outer Banks and it did not disappoint! The house was absolutely stunning! We had a party of 10 and with 6 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms we had plenty of room to stretch out and everyone had privacy. The views from the decks were amazing and the pool, hot tub, and ping pong table were favorites. The kitchen was gorgeous and well-appointed and the large, comfy couch in the living room was the ideal spot to congregate after a busy day. The location is magical! The drive on the beach to the property is a fun adventure. We saw the famous Corolla wild horses right off the deck and while we were relaxing at the beach. The sandy beach was a quick minute walk and we all went swimming; we're from NH so even though it was May the ocean temp felt balmy. The owners were fantastic to work with and very accommodating and communicative throughout the process. Thank you Barbara for sharing your beautiful home!

Amazing beach house

We had the best vacation staying at this house. It’s just as pictured-spacious and light. Very clean, well-stocked kitchen, and comfortable beds. Barbara is an extremely gracious host and patiently answered all of my questions and ensured we were comfortable. The house is great for families with tons of space and a game room on the ground floor. I also really appreciated the commercial-grade washer and dryer. We enjoyed being away from the crowds and development, but close enough that they were accessible when we wanted to go out to eat. It’s a very special place, and we can’t wait to come back!
