REVIEW: 'Tons of Fun!'
'We loved this beach house! We had a fantastic time at 'BLACKBEARD'S TREASURE, COROLLA!' and highly recommend it because it had everything we wanted and in a great location. There was plenty of room for our extended family of 22. The house was clean and very appealing. There are 3 refrigerators with one downstairs near the pool and grill. The rec room became a gathering place for us because it overlooks the pool and hot tub and has a nice pool table and bar. The pool and hot tub were large and clean and we used them constantly. The kitchen is large with enough seating for everyone. It had everything we needed plus some. The 7 baths were important for us and gave us the privacy we wanted. Plenty of tv's for everyone and there's also music to the decks with a docking station. We were able to watch an evening concert in the park from the decks of the house and had a great view of the lighthouse. There are bikes to use on the paths along the water and we had fun biking together. Make sure to check out the museum aquarium in the park , it's free, and climb the lighthouse if you dare. But, the wild horse tour was one of the highlights of our vacation. The park had a kite flying contest for the kids and an arts and craft show during the week. Wish we could have stayed longer. We highly recommend this beach house!'

Corolla Village is known as the 'Magical Vacation Spot' of the Carolina's with Beautiful Wide, Clean, and Uncrowded Beaches and Awesome location across from Heritage Park.

Corolla Beach is said to be one of the "Best Beaches on the East Coast" with uncrowded & pristine beaches that are not steep with dangerous drop off.

'Blackbeard's Treasure', sleeps 24 for Large Family Reunions offering an Over-Sized Beach Property with spread out room for activities and the much valued privacy for relaxing.

Our wide and level beach with lots of sandbars provide a safe and extended playground for all. The village has quaint shopping, activities, & friendly locals. Corolla is an upscale island that caters to families. No college frat parties to worry about.... just gorgeous scenery of clean white sand and aqua blue water. Family friendly fun and adventures are within walking distance. The tranquil village setting and soothing island pace provide a calming and comforting retreat, ideal for relaxing. Blackbeard's Treasure is across from breathtaking Heritage Park, one of the most beautiful areas on the NC coast. The park offers a variety of fun things to do; kite flying, living sea and wild life museum, the historic Whale Head Club, dock, arts exhibits, wine tasting events, as well as festivals, concerts, and Fireworks. The Wild Horse Museum offers children's activities and pony rides. This Conservatory is dedicated to protecting the 'Wild Horse Preservation'. DNA testing has proven that these majestic horses are descendants of the Spanish King's Royal line which survived the Galleon Shipwrecks during a ferocious storm more than 500 years ago! These Wild Horses still flourish today with Tours available which are usually the highlight of our visitor's vacation. We also have scenic bike and walking trails along the water with complimentary wildlife like Ocean Eagles, Egrets and more. A huge effort has been made to keep Corolla 'Unspoiled' by preventing over commercialism and crowded beaches.

Nearby are wild horse tours, jet skiing, and kids racetrack. From sunset to sunrise, relax with soothing Light House Views overhead taking you back to a less rushed time of long ago. This upscale island area is home to the Wild Horse Sanctuary, originating from Spanish Galleon Ship Wrecks 500 years ago. It is said to be one of the Best beaches on the East Coast! Extended sandbars offer safe play areas with shelling! You'll love every moment and create lasting memories with Family and Friends.

Most importantly, unlike beaches to the south that have been eroded and are steep, Corolla beaches are wide. We are not in Duck where it floods and are not in the 4x4 area where high tide restricts getting in and out.

Great week

We had an amazing week at this property. We were very happy with how roomy it was and the golf cart for the beach was 100!!! Pool was warm and we had everything we needed. Sherie communicated with me everyday to make sure I had what I needed. Amazing host, amazing house, absolutely amazing week.

Great Experience

Our family of 22 had a great time at Blackbeard's Treasure. The pool and hot tub were in regular use. The ease of getting to the beach as well as to the park on the other side of the highway was a real plus. Sherry was great to work with. Very responsive. Just a few issues that keep it from being a 5 across the board: the outside areas including the decks had not been cleaned when we arrived (they were subsequently....the interior was spotless); bath towels were available but not hand towels (they were provided subsequently); and the configuration of the 2 second floor bedrooms was not exactly as advertised so we had to make some adjustments from our original plans. But, these were really minor to an overall great experience.

Awesome stay here...not one complaint :)

We stayed at this home from August 6 to the 13. We had such a great time! The pool and hot tub were awesome. Half of our party never made it to the beach because the pool was good enough for them! The golf cart was a hit. We had several other houses on the street willing to pay us money to drive them to the beach! It was fun to drive it across Route 12 to the awesome BBQ down the street and to the Lighthouse. The house was very clean. The AC was perfect (some actually complained it was too cold...but not me...lol). Sherrie was always easy to get in touch with when I had questions from the moment we booked. I was also impressed that she got in touch with me at the beginning and the end of our vacation to make sure everything was good. I will definitely find my way back here in the future! If I had to find one complaint.....it's that our vacation was over way too fast! Thanks Sherrie...keep up the great work :)

Perfect Beach Get-Away

Our family of 20 and 3 little ones rented this amazing house as a surprise XMAS present for our parents. We were not disappointed as it is everything it claims to be. We enjoyed the seclusion and privacy from all the trees around the property, yet were only a short distance from the beach, the golf cart was a big bonus. Everyone enjoyed the pool, the lighthouse views, and just having fun in the sun. The wild horses are only a mile down the road and we went to see them many times, the house is also in close proximity to dining and shopping. The only drawback (and they were both minor) was that some of the chairs on the decks were cracked and broken and there was only one skillet for cooking. The kitchen is quite large and accommodating with two refrigerators for a large group , and you'll get plenty of exercise going up all the steps to get there. Again, I can't say enough wonderful things about our stay, other than after a week you have to leave; but we have many happy memories that are ours to keep. Thanks Sherrie for sharing Blackbeard's Treasure!

Blackbeard’s Treasure , fun but needing some love

House was well equipped with dishes, kitchen appliances and utensils,&linen. The size was perfect for our group. The owner was prompt in responding to our calls and offered solutions , but needs to have a local maintenance person. We were instructed on how to fix some problems but assistance was not available. The pictures on line were obviously old, the outside has faded, the decks needed to be sealed, afraid of getting splinters of barefoot, key doesn’t work in front lock, and took a phone call and much effort to get it to work,screen door in master bedroom fell off first time we tried to close it as did handle on kitchen window. Smoke alarm went off at end of week, called, given instructions but had to climb a chair to replace the battery . The golf cart stopped working midway through the week and could not be recharged, bikes were fun, but half of them were inoperable. The location was great, loved the pool hot tub and pool table, as well as the large dining table, we loved Corolla and in spite of all these annoyances had a wonderful time.

Family memories

The inside of the property was very clean and nice. It was the perfect size for our family of 14. We all enjoyed having our own rooms and bathrooms. We all loved the pool and hot tub as well and they were very clean and as advertised. Realizing TS Debbie had just passed through before we got there made the pool area and cushions on the outdoor furniture sopping wet, dirty and moldy. We could not use them. Also there were no wash cloths in the laundry room as they were to be included with the linens and we had brought none of our own. There were no stores close by to buy any. When I contacted the host she assured me someone would be bringing them. We arrived on Saturday and they did not appear until Monday. We loved that there were 3 refrigerators, several coffee makers and toasters though. That was great! The washer and dryer were a plus as well. It would have been nice to have a retractable clothes line or folding laundry racks for wet beach towels and bathing suits. Our family enjoyed our stay very much. The golf cart was an excellent way to get our tents, food, drinks up to the stairs of the beach and back home again but it quit charging for the last two days of our stay. It could not be fixed before we had to leave. It would be greatly helpful if there was a designated parking space at the entrance of the beach for golf carts in the community. The bikes were not in good working condition and the decking on all 3 levels of the house was in need of repair and attention.

Perfectly Fine

All in all this property was perfectly fine for our group. Sherrie, the owner was attentive and helpful and the house/kitchen met our needs. But...for the price we paid, the value was not there. There was no view of the beach or the ocean, so access to the golf cart was beneficial and necessary. Beach access was a short walk. As for the house itself, it needed a lot of updating. Most of the bathroom sinks and showers were very slow to drain - at least one sink filled up with water almost to the top while just rinsing my mouth after brushing my teeth, The downstairs level bathroom sink had a faucet that was not fully attached to the sink. All of the beds had plastic mattress covers which were very uncomfortable. The water pressure in the bathrooms and kitchen was low. The kitchen had the necessary appliances, and even though there were 3 toasters, none of them worked very well. There was a 3-pot crock pot on the counter that didn't work and should be thrown away as it just takes up counter space, The dining table was large enough for our 15-person family which was nice. There were 2 high chairs which which we didn't need. There was one chair in the corner that was broken and should be fixed or replaced. Again, the house was fine, just not a good value for the money.

First time to Corolla, OBX

It was our first time to the OBX, and we LOVED it. First of all, this house is in a wonderful location, right between the beach and Corolla Park and Historic Village. We spent a lot of time at both locations. The Golf Cart and bikes that came with the house made going back and forth easy and enjoyable. The house was plenty big enough for our large family of 10 adults and 6 kids. 2 fridges and two dish washers upstairs, along with a fully stocked kitchen were much appreciated. The upstairs open floor plan is better than what the pictures online show. A bigger tv in this area would be nice. The house was very clean when we arrived, but if you are looking for new and shiny, this is not it. It is an older home, which was fine with us. I just couldn’t get over the blue carpet though. It was very worn and coming apart in some places. It’s in every room and on the stairs. With so much foot traffic from feet that have been in the pool and at the beach…well… it just needs to go. Also, the leaves and dirt on the decks and around the pool need to be removed more often. I swept all three levels and around the pool myself, and I could tell that it’s not done regularly. Also, the flags that are all around the outside of the house need to just be taken down. They are faded and some are ripped. They take away from the look of the house. Overall, the house served our big family well, and Sherrie was very helpful. We really enjoyed our stay.

This property is close to many amazing experiences in walking distance such as the lighthouse, a cute coffee place, a boutique, two fun bars with outdoor live music, a margherita bar, and historical hunting club site. The house easily fit my large family with multiple bedrooms with adjoined bathrooms. The beach is in walking distance. I'd highly recommend purchasing the beach chair and umbrella setup service if you don't have a lot of energy to carry everything down the stairs. The pool was a major plus!

Paul needed cleaned outside around pool was loaded with leaves and I hadn’t been cleaned inside. Had some minor issues with maintenance of doors needing hinges fixed railing on top floor loose could be an accident happening. There were boxes in the entryway of things that needed to be put together that were there the whole time in our way, trying to carry our things in cleaning did not get there until time of check-in. Then they rush their cleaning and tiles were folded and put on the shelves stamp Nails on the decks were coming up needed hammered in there were two brand new bikes, but two were nice, but there were four bags that didn’t work that should’ve been removed so the place wasn’t cluttered up the hostess was always sending different things to do in the area which was nice. Never responded to my pool and hot tub issue.The kitchen had numerous cooking appliances, which was great two crockpots ,blender,2types of coffee pots ,different types of pans so there was plenty of that which was great.Location was great

Just about the perfect big family home.

We are a big family that craves time together and time apart. This home gave us all of those things in one very centrally located spot. If you want to do more than sleep in and swim in the pool the beach is steps away. The park is so fun and unique, we visited several local attractions many of them free. We had a couple questions that were immediately resolved. The local Corolla pizza and Duck Doughnuts were a must! Our big mixed group of 15 had a blast. We can’t wait to return again in the future.

Perfect for Family Reunion

We enjoyed bonfires, sunrises, sunsets on the sound, and loved the location across from Nature Center, Beer Garden, Coffee shop, and proximity to shopping center. Sherrie, our host, was super responsive and communicated daily with reccomendations. We would gladly stay here again! The layout of the house is conducive for different size families such as ours - from empty nesters to blended families with kids in school, to young couples. The 4 King / 1 Queen room and 2 doubles were perfect accomdations for the grown ups, while the bunk rooms served the kids well. The kitchen is a chef's dream. It is the very well stocked with regards to every cooking utensil and pot and pan to create big family meals. You will never run out of dishes as there are enough sets for 3 or meals a day for a group of 15+. The dual dishwashers, refrigerators (3rd in lowest floor), coffee makers, and toasters were a huge benefit since that kitchen was occupied and utilized from dawn to dusk. And the super long dinner table and extra chairs allowed us to enjoy every memorable meal together. Unfortunately, due to hurricane season, the water was not safe to swim in, so the pool and hot tub were a welcome alternative. The golf cart was perfect to deliver our elderly parents and beach stuff to the beach, and bikes were very useful. This house had everything we were looking for to gather our family snd make memories. You may want to bring a karaoke machine since the acoustics are outstanding!

Outer Banks - Corolla

Perfect size for our large group of 16. 5 of our group were teenagers and there was plenty to do: pool, darts, volleyball, basketball to name a few. We visited after Labor Day so paid to have the pool open which was also used daily. The house was clean and spacious and we would stay again. The property could use some minor repairs but overall, a nice property. The host was amazing, communicates well and responds promptly.

Layout & Amenities Great but Poorly Maintained

The bedroom layout and bed type worked almost perfectly for our family; the separation of rooms provided quiet space; the location to the beach was good. However, problems with how the property is maintained are numerous: HVAC fan filters (all) and most ceiling fan blades "caked" with dust; poolside seat cushions mildewed; kitchen pots dirty and cutting board moldy; kitchen countertop formica surface and nearly all cabinet trim separating (in most cases, secured with tape); one stovetop burner inop; deck picnic table seat broken and surface mildewed; screen door from master to deck falling off track; front doorknob difficult to operate; some bicycles too rusty to operate safely...and the worst: roaches (big ones) spotted on at least 4 occasions during our stay; plus, wifi router required resetting numerous times per day; at least one smoke detector missing; and numerous other trim pieces broken, missing or malfunctioning (toilet paper holder, recessed light flickering; sink stopper disconnected, etc.)

Blackbeard’s Treasure - Corolla

This family vacation was one of our favorites! There were 22 of us there ranging in age from 5 months to 60 years and there was something for everyone. The house was the perfect size and Sherrie was a great host. When we arrived the 2nd floor air conditioner was not functioning correctly and I immediately contacted Sherrie. She tried everything she could on her end to fix the problem and had a technician there within just a couple of hours. The unit was fixed and we never had another issue with it. All of us enjoyed some pool time, the cornhole sets, the bicycles and many of the other amenities that came with the house. The beach was just a short walk down the road, and the golf cart made transporting beach items and people so easy. I would highly recommend this property and Sherrie. Even before we arrived, Sherrie had been communicating with us and giving us food and entertainment suggestions. We definitely hope to stay here again.
