Clean house, great views, comfortable beds, nice tvs. Not for children or for relaxing on the beach though due to the damaged homes and lack of beach at high and low tide. Recommend for fisherman or couples getaway

nice 2bdrm house with a great view of the beach and lighthouse. 100ft from the ocean and 1 mile from the haulover.

This house was perfect for our family of 3. Proximity to the beach was fantastic and overall cleanliness was great. Our only gripe was the number of stairs we had to climb to enjoy, but if you enjoy a good workout after a day at the beach. This is the perfect spor for you.

Nice facility, but the Atlantic oceans seems to want that land back. Choose wisely.

The property was not checked before we arrived. Had it been they’d have known that the door code didn’t work and THE ONLY STREET TO THE PROPERTY WAS UNSAFE AND UNPASSABLE. We didn’t know how deep the water was, because the street looked level, but it wasn’t. We made it to the property and were stranded there until the water receded enough to safely exit.

The road to the place is a little bumpy but our son’s Prius made it through, just go slow. The unit we rented was on the top floor. So this isn’t exactly a house but more like a condo. The fridge door was missing a handle and looked like it had been hastily painted. We sent a text to management so they knew it wasn’t us. The place was smaller than I expected but the 5 of us did manage to fit into the unit. Just a note on the area, the nearest ER is an hour away in Nags Head. We had to make an unexpected trip. Something to think about if you have medical concerns.

I think the title says most of it. The advertised amenities are not true. This unit has a fantastic view, but the rest of the experience was awful. The unit was filthy, had food on the floor, and was crawling with roaches, despite the additional fees for the “enhanced cleaning protocol.” Don’t waste your money by staying here.

8/10

We love traveling with our dogs when possible - this quaint little beachfront condo was great! Everything was a bit older and the condo itself a tad rundown, (water damage in ceiling, fridge is missing a handle, furniture and overall decor is outdated) but honestly it’s to be expected with this location being RIGHT on the ocean. The weather is hard on these properties and being a vacation rental isn’t easy on them either (also add in the fact that they allow dogs - which we are so thankful for)! The price you pay is absolutely for the location - you’re so close to the sand the property’s foundation IS sand. We didn’t even wear shoes to walk down to the water. Our dogs absolutely loved being able to take walks on the beach and because OBX is so dog friendly, you’re allowed to have your pups on the sand all day long -so long as they are leashed. We loved this little property for the location and ease of being able to cook meals right there instead of having to venture out or microwave everything. Rated 4 stars because it’s a bit rundown, but in my opinion, it’s worth the price and we’d stay here again!

Très bon emplacement proche à 2 minutes dans le sable à pied de la plage. La propriété pourrait avoir un peu de rénovation ex. Plafond troué, rouille un peu partout, pommeau de douche bouché ailettes des trous d'aération ne peuvent être dirigés ;vent directement en haut des lits. Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas une table pour manger dehors, pourtant il y aurait amplement de place. A notre arrivé, nous avons dû laver les fenêtres qui étaient très sales. Arrivé autonome super!, laveuse sécheuse très fonctionnelles, produits inclus. Assez grand et bien divisé.

Great location just off the beach. The accommodations were nice, but when we arrived there were a couple problems with roof leaks that caused a couple minor drywall/paint issues. The issues were so minor, they did not interrupt our stay. Other than that, place was great.

This property is not being actively cared for. The drive is overgrown and the ceiling is falling in. The furnishings are horrendous and way outdated. The only good thing is we could bring our dogs.

8/10

This apartment is just off the beach. Nice location and very quiet. We were on the top floor of a 2 floor duplex which made unpacking a little challenging but the place was spacious enough for our family of 4. Brought 2 dogs with us who enjoyed the beach. Very pet friendly. The only cautions I would give is that this particular location is on a road that floods when it rains. Not a problem for our truck, but might be for a smaller vehicle. And while it is only a mile from the Cape Hatterus Lighthouse, it is an hour to Nags Head. There’s a kitchen and they provide all cooking utensils, but if you plan to go out a lot, there’s not much in Buxton or Avon. The Avon pier provides some nice fishing and there’s a lot of surf fishing. Nice quiet family location.

I rented this condo for a short, impromptu girls weekend with my mom and sister. Since it was just the three of us for only a couple days we didn’t need anything fancy and had our expectations set low. We were pleasantly surprised by this condo. It was well care for and clean. Not just basic floor swept clean, but even then fixtures and window treatments were clean. I honestly can think of one negative thing about the place. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a simple place to relax for a few days.
