What a great vacation! This was the perfect place for my family to stay and the location is awesome! You have a great view of the ocean even though it isn't considered "oceanfront", and we could easily walk to the beach.
The management explained that they had not been able to complete the remodel before our stay (due to delays with contractors, materials, etc.), but everything was still lovely. The dishwater is dated, and one of the racks was broken, but I believe this was on the list of things to replace. No matter, it still cleaned the dishes... and better than our new model at home. We made a few minor requests, and management addressed then within a matter of hours (water to outdoor shower turned on, a missing knob for one of the new lamps, a plug for the bathtub so my little one could take a bath).
The pool and hot tub were even open, which I did not expect. My kids enjoyed being able to swim and didn't seem to care that the water was cold.
Thanks for such great accommodations! We will absolutely be back!

We've stayed here a bunch of times, from their king room to their kind oceanfront "condo" to their duplex cottage. Always clean, fairly well stocked kitchens in the cottage and "condo" options. Check in/out is a breeze. Rooms are always clean and comfy and they've all been recently updated. There is nothing negative to say. We love staying here and they have some of the best prices for what you get in the area.

Reviewer Comments:
This was a very first trip to the North Carolina Beach Area. Our son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter were visiting us from Austria, so it was a very special trip for all of us. The staff was so accommodating, so friendly. Our beach house was so clean and inviting. Our view was amazing, from our balcony we could see both the ocean and the sound side. Our son and his family travel all over Europe but he said this was by far, the best trip ever. Hopefully, we would like to plan a trip sometime in the future to include the rest of our family for a big reunion. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. We would highly recommend Lighthouse View and give you six stars if we could....

Everything was perfect , great vacaations with all my family . We all enjoyed very much !!
We added our 3 night stay as an addition before our week long beach rental up in Corolla. We could have been quite happy just staying! The view and beach access were perfect. The kids played in the “tide pools” and learned to skim board this year. They loved watching all the skim boarders and surfers. I would only say I wish the mattresses weren’t quite so firm and there were a few hooks in the bathrooms or around. We did make good use of the clothes line. We will definitely look at a stay next year!

Reviewer Comments:
Our experience was overall wonderful. We have stayed in these homes every year for the past 6 years. My one huge recommendation would be to upgrade the bedspreads and the mattress. The mattress on the bigger beds are very uncomfortable and have had the same spread on the beds they did 3 years ago. As well I would recommend attaching the Tables under the TV to the walls. We have a one year old and every time he barley touched one it was ready to fall on top of him.

This is my fourth staying at this rental properties but I have never have this experienced except my last stayed. The bathroom in the king bed room smell terrible and I found dried urine around the toilet. Another issue I experienced is that the carpet on the first floor next to the bunker and the step going up to the kitchen smelled like dog or dog urine.

Overall great vacation property, we had a wonderful time full of relaxation and comfortable accommodations! Only major concern we had was the safety of the outside stairs and upper level porch, there were loose wobbly railings, loose railing spindles fluttering in the wind(Visible on other units as well), exposed raised nail heads and loose boards on floor and stair treads etc.. These issues made us uncomfortable for our safety and especially our 2 year old granddaughter

We have been staying at the Ligthhouse View Oceanfront Lodging for over 20 years now. My first year was 1997, but my Wife's family have been going there for 35+ years. We consider this our home away from home. This was the first year that we ever went down in the off season. We decided at the last minute to celebrate New Year's on The Beach. What we love about Lighthouse View is that you don't need to worry about packing sheets. bath towels, etc. Everything is included in the unit. The properties are well kept and just what we need. Can't wait to go back in June.

We had a great time at Lighthouse View! Literally right by the beach - 3 minute walk. View was nice & always had a breeze. The beach was the most beautiful we've experienced in our years staying throughout Obx. The water was so clear and the sand bar was amazing and so nice for the kids. Also, we loved how conveniently located we were. Lots of walkable resturaunts and stores! House was clean and decks were nice.

The stay was perfect (Villa 224) for 3 nights. The villa was clean and all the utensils in the kitchen were available and cleaned prior to arrival. The place smelled fresh and the view from the deck, even though it was partial, it was scenic. The staff was sweet and offered us to look at other available units on arrival that had opened up, not many places allow you to do that. The place had a relaxed homey feeling. Will definitely stay again. Recommend to boom way in advance for peak season, they fill up fast.
