Fishing trip

We rented this home because it was close to where we were going to go fishing. It met all our needs, and it accommodated 6 men without a problem. It was located close to restaurants and to the marina where we are fishing from. All in all it was a great stay

Great Spot!

This house is perfect for those that want to dock a boat for fishing or for those that want an amazing outdoor space! The house itself has everything you could need for a vacation and all of the furniture is comfortable. It could use a little TLC on a few things, but nothing that would stop you from having a great vacation. Also, you just can't beat the location of the inlet for getting your boat in and out!

Great house!

The house was fantastic and in such a great area of Nags Head! We were close to a ton of great restaurants and beach access points. The outdoor spaces at the house were great and we loved the kayaks and hammocks! Having our dog on our vacation with us was a big bonus!

Great fall family vacation

Website description and photos are accurate. As others have said we loved the outdoor areas. Nice furnishings on all levels. We didn’t use but there are top of the line beach chairs, 4 bikes, kayaks and paddle boards, misc things for young children. There is a small secluded beach area on sound side. Nice neighborhood, great for walking in the evening. Would definitely recommend! So close to everything. 15 minutes to Wright Brothers museum.

Great home!

This hone was lovely- fantastic views and very convenient to the sound with our boat! Outdoor furniture on 3 levels was lovely and extremely comfortable- so much outdoor space to enjoy! Renters should be aware that this is an upside down house so up 2 sets of stairs to the living space makes for a lot of stair climbing if that is difficult for anyone in your party. The master bedroom was a bit small and has no dresser, but other than that we loved our stay in this home!

I absolutely love staying here. The views are nice, you can see water out of almost every window. There is a wide range of different types of seating outside. The location is perfect so close to everything!!

Subtle Sounds -relaxing experience

We loved all the outdoor spaces on 3 different levels. There was a subtle breeze that made you want to sit outside and enjoy the water views. The outdoor seating options were the best we’ve ever had in 20 years of renting homes on The OXB. We also enjoyed the kayaks and bikes since we are an active family. Thank you. We loved it!

Perfect for Couples or Families

We had a wonderful time at this professionally operated vacation home that has all of the touches that bring -- thoughtful access to the beach and recreation, from bikes to paddle boards, to kayak, to beach chairs. Well stocked kitchen for home meals. Two couple rooms and two rooms with multiple sleeping beds allowed for lots of flexibility between parents and kids.

Family vacation

Clean, comfortable with lots of stairs and the most rain I have seen on the outer banks. One of our grand daughters cannot have gluten so we did lots of cleaning while we were there. We washed all the dishes and silverware before using them to be safe.

Great relaxing getaway!

We had a great stay at the canal home. There were beautiful views of the canal in the back and ocean in the front. Lots of fun things to do on the property and in the area. We loved having the bikes to ride around the area. There are speed limit signs that everyone respected so it made bike riding and walking safe. Lots of great seating in the back to drink coffee relax by the water. Very short drive to jeanette's pier which is where we parked for the beach. Lots of shops and food stores near by.

Great canal front home in Nags Head!

We enjoyed our stay this week! This home has EVERYTHING you need to enjoy the beach and outdoor activities! Bikes, kayaks, paddle board, life jackets, fishing equipment, boogie boards, beach chairs and more! Awesome outdoor shower! The outdoor furniture is top notch! Plenty of space for our 2 families of 8. We made the best of the week even with tropical storm Debby coming through. However, this home could use some upgrades to the furniture, bedding and AC unit. Only one unit to cool the entire place. Overall, I would highly recommend this home if you plan to be outside enjoying the sound side canal or beach!
