Beautiful cottage with hot tub and community pool.

AmandaRating, 5 stars10 months ago
Enjoyed our stay. Loved that we could utilize the community pool since the beach had red flags during our entire stay. The beach access private parking was also a plus. Hot tub was a great way to end the day. Lots of space for family meals at the dinning room table.

Charming OBX Soundfront Home with Hot Tub & Kayaks

MonikaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Another fantastic Spring Break at the Best Box! The nicest, cleanest, most relaxing rental we’ve ever found. Didn’t think the property could be any better than it was last year, but the owners have managed to make many creative and thoughtful upgrades. Enjoyed days at the beach, days on the sound, chartered a boat for fishing, ate tons of seafood, and saw the best sunsets right from the deck. Literally took advantage of everything in this house - from crabbing to fishing to baggo to flying kites to playing board games to darts and foosball. Oh and kayaking, relaxing in the hammock, and tubing, too.

Start planning your fall trip to the island !

AidenRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This was our first trip to Ocracoke and it exceeded our expectations! The Grey Pearl was so clean and conveniently located, with a fantastic screened porch—we couldn’t have asked for nicer! Jennifer made communication easy and we had everything we needed at the cottage. It was well cared for and lovingly furnished. We’re looking forward to visiting again!

Family cottage near ocean

BrittanyRating, 5 stars6 days ago
This place was great. It was just a 2 minute walk to the private beach access which was never super full. The BNB was big enough for my whole family and my dog! Washer and dryers are always nice to have when staying away from home! It was a quiet neighborhood, but stay off the lady next door’s grass. There were a few restaurants to walk to and stores, not to mention a neat little tackle shop with iced coffee!! Our car actually broke down while staying here, so the walkable things were very convenient. She even let us check in 5 hours early because I got check in time wrong. I would love to stay again!

The name speaks true! It really is a beautiful hidden gem in Avon. From its ideal location to everything, to all the amenities the host provide. This location has been the best I’ve had the pleasure of staying at. It made my boyfriend’s birthday weekend and our friends loved it! David & Misty are truly wonderful hosts. Thank you again! 😊

OBX Dog-friendly / Oceanfront/ Poolside Cottage 17

YashaswiRating, 5 stars5 months ago
I would rate this 6/5 stars. We were a group of 9 friends who stayed at the place and every one of us loved the cottage. It’s right next to the beach with a nice porch area. It has a swimming pool right next to the cottage. The host was really responsive and also kind enough to get us extra amenities in the cold night. Would stay here every time I visit the place. Only complaint was there was no lock to one of the restrooms. Other than that there were no issues. Thank you!!

At Last on Ocracoke Island

EmmaRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Mary Ellen and Jim’s place was absolutely perfect for our stay on the island. It was quaint, clean, and overall lovely. The outdoor shower was amazing and exactly what you need after a long day at the beach. On top of that the AC is top notch, even on the hottest day we knew we could come back to a cool space to relax and unwind. The location is central to all the great spots on the island, just a short golf cart ride! Mary Ellen and Jim were very accommodating in providing us with everything we needed from golf cart chargers to bikes and ocean kayaks. Also, the handwritten note welcoming us to the space and to the island was a really nice touch, making us feel right at home . We will definitely be coming back for another stay.

Crabby Pad at Hatteras NC

BethRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Crabby Pad was beautiful. We kept the windows open and enjoyed the breeze. We fished off the dock at night, caught a blue crab. Little tricky to find but once you do it's a beautiful little place. Will definitely visit again!

Osprey - Updated Cottage with Beach Access

SherryRating, 5 stars1 week ago
The details about the cottage were thorough, just read them all. It is a local neighborhood with long term families and new purchases across the street. It’s a nice mix, just drive slow and remember you have neighbors. The response from Jacqueline was superb, a nice little cottage for couples, friends, or a small family. Sherry

Just Enough! -Canal Front Home, BIKES & KAYAKS

MarkRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a very pleasant stay at Amy’s home nestled in a very quiet and serene sound side neighborhood. We found Just Enough to be more than enough for 2 and a dog! Loved the screened porch and spent almost every evening out there just relaxing and watching the storms on rain days. We were a very short drive to some really great restaurants- loved the sandwiches from Pamlico Deli and steamed shrimp from Tavern 12! Great nearby coffee shops, gift shops, and bakeries (get an Apple Ugly from Orange Blossom!). The jeep rental spot is one road over so that was convenient for our beach off-roading day. For one first time visitor (2 if you count the dog), and one returning to OBX after many years, we couldn’t have been happier with our choice to stay down in Frisco at Just Enough. Highly recommend this rental and we would absolutely return on a future visit to the Outer Banks. Thank you for everything!

Cozy Beach Cottage on water, walk to beach

AlyssaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a great birthday weekend at the Evening Star! We enjoyed taking the paddle boat out on the canal with our dog for the first time- it was an unforgettable experience. It was great to be able to relax in the chairs on the dock in the mornings. The location was great and we enjoyed the short walk to the Dairy Queen and to the beach access. Gisa was a great host and provided a plethora of helpful information and suggestions for our stay! She was also very responsive to our requests for flexible check-in and check-out times. We are very much looking forward to staying at the Evening Star again soon!

Two Bedroom Garden Cottage Two Doubles & Two Twins

HunterRating, 5 stars5 months ago
A really great stay for the money! A lot of things very close by like beach access, light houses, restraunts etc. Also the star gazing near Buxton Woods area was beautiful!! Do not miss out on it, we could see thousands of stars and it was only a five minute drive from the house. Hosts were very friendly and gave a great recommendation to eat at a local place called Angelos which was again only a few minutes from the house. Highly recommend!
