The Dock

LeelaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
The space was lovely and very clean. The view out the window over the sound was excellent, and we could go downstairs for great sunsets on the dock. We enjoyed walking distance to everything - beach, shops, restaurants. Erin was very responsive and flexible to our needs.

Beach Oasis; Short Walk to Beach & Resaturants

Ashley BrookeRating, 5 stars9 months ago
This is a fantastic unit for a couple (or best friends!) retreat. The location is perfect - directly across the street from beach entrance, walking distance to great coffee shops, local ice cream, surf shops, brewery, food, convenience stores, and more! I liked the house was at the end of a cul-de-sac so no traffic on the street. The host is very friendly and responsive with great directions. Check in/out was hassle free. I will definitely be coming back for a long weekend getaway!

The Coastal Studio

PatriciaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We enjoyed our stay and loved the area. The weather was not good, lots of clouds and rain which was unusual for this time of year, but we could still find plenty to do. Would love a couple of comfortable chairs added as we had to spend more time than planned inside watching tv. We would definitely stay here again.

No Ordinary Sunrise - Dog Friendly & Waterfront

MikeRating, 5 stars4 days ago
The home was clean and instructions were very easy to follow. Since we were looking for a peaceful location on this trip, it fit the bill. The view was worth the cost. We knew there would be others around, as it was described accurately and clearly as a condo community. Supplies were very sufficient for us, and the owners were responsive. Enjoyed this trip!

SERENE SOUND RETREAT OBX /Sandy Beach/Dog Friendly

This was our second year at Serene Retreat. It’s just such a wonderful place for young children to enjoy the beach. The fenced in yard is great for their outdoor play. We enjoy cooking in the fabulous kitchen and feasting at the table with a view. Better than any restaurant around! Thank you again.

Scarlett Sunset

JamesRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Getting to the beach was most important to us, and Matthew's place was perfect for the beach! Quick walk to the beach, and the house included all the necessary beach equipment (wagon, chairs, umbrella, sand toys, etc). It was also very clean and comfortable with a beautiful sunset view off the back deck. Highly recommend. Thanks Matthew!

Bruce’s Retreat Waterfront Home Entire 3 Bd 2 Ba

DanRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The Bruce’s Retreat was the perfect location and the absolute best sunsets in the OBX! There were kayaks available, a cooler and beach chairs that made us feel right at home. The home was comfortable and close to all the restaurants and shopping. You can fish right off of their dock, but if you want to get into the bigger fish, it’s just a short drive away. It worked out perfect for me, as the fish I caught at the home dock, I used to catch my biggest Red Drum (34”) on the surf! Karin was a great host, and was a quick responder when we reached out. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay again when we visit.

The Salty Shoebox OBX Oceanfront.

KatherineRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Wonderful views and easy access to the water. Good place with young children. (We had a toddler and a baby as part of our group.) The sitting area in the master suite was a great place to play board games and chat in the evenings without disturbing the little ones sleep. Great deck with sturdy chairs of the correct height to see the ocean over the railing. Lots of restaurants nearby and grocery stores and even a Target less than 2 miles away.

House is great. The garage/basement is separated from the main house which is great if some people want to stay up late. Plenty of room for a large group. Host was super responsive and understanding about any issue that came up. Beach is walkable or you can use the public parking lot across the main road.

Oceanfront Luxury Penthouse w/Stunning Views!

RobertRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
The condo was very charming with new appointments and has a beautiful view of the ocean. We enjoyed sunrise each morning and the sound of the waves crashing each night. The kitchen was well equipped and had sufficient space for the two of us. It was also nice to have both a full and half bath as well as a door between the sink area and toilet/shower in the full bath. Having several options for coffee with espresso, drip, and a Keurig was a big plus A few observations we want to share. It would be very tight to fit 6 people in the place but you could comfortably have two couples or a couple with two kids with the second pair on the sleeper sofa. Overall it was a great stay for our anniversary weekend!!!

Oceanfront | Pool | Stunning Views | Central

AmandaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Incredible location and views (of sunrises and sunsets); great for kids! There was a problem with the storm door that Katie herself came by to fix when maintenance was unavailable on a holiday weekend :) The place was clean, the kitchen was well-stocked, and the pool was great (opening weekend and very clean). The only thing to note is that this might not be a great place for you if you're sensitive to noise - there was a wedding at one of the huge houses one night under a tent and we could hear every song they played, as well as footsteps from the people staying above us. This isn't a make or break for us, and we would stay at Katie's place again in a heartbeat.
