Absolutely Wonderful Stay

Had an early 60th BDay celebration with a small group of friends and we were all so very pleased with this property. Several have stayed in other short term rentals and said by far this was the cleanest, most accurately described. It is well equipped for fun with games, books, pool table, paddle boards, kayaks, floats… so many amenities provided that we weren’t even expecting to ensure guests have a great stay. We brought a boat which really added to our ability to add fun water recreation. The views from the porch and several rooms are fantastic!! The host was so easy to work with. After a bad lightening storm took out the internet overnight, she let me know before we even noticed. Really just a top notch experience for our long weekend away. Will be back, for sure!

Great Stay - Exactly as Advertised

The property is exactly as advertised. We thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing time whether we were enjoying the outdoor waterfront views, gathering our family around the spacious dining room table, or shooting the breeze around the pool table. The owner was couteous and responsive. I highly recommend this property.

Great house, outstanding location. Everything you need for a relaxing stay. We played basketball, had a bonfire, went kayaking, paddleboarding and fishing. We played pool, watched a hockey game, sat on the deck and chilled. Beautiful views, comfortable beds, private location for a waterfront home.

The house and grounds are amazing. Plenty of room for large groups. The boat dock is a beautiful place to enjoy the sun rises and sun sets. The Kayaks were a huge plus for our group. Simply heaven on earth. 5 stars straight across and especially for our host. Will rent again with our group ❤️❤️

perfect for our family

We absolutely loved this place!! The home was beautiful and clean and was a wonderful sanctuary from the heat. Our kids and grandkids hung out in the water the majority of the time we were there - swimming, kayaking, paddle-boarding, etc. They loved fishing and crabbing off the dock, too. And Tracey was so, so helpful and responsive when we needed her! It really was a perfect little slice of paradise for our family.

Another great stay at Parradise!

Truly enjoyed the beautiful property for a second year! Love the size and layout of the house and the warm water of the sound. Also love the quiet area…not a lot of tourists or boat traffic. The fire pit addition was very nice, enjoyed it on the cooler nights. The house is fantastically equipped with everything for a nice vacation! Also, the property owner is very responsive for questions that arose. We had a great stay! 😊

Winter getaway

The house is amazing and the views from every window are wonderful. Tons of room for our small group to spread out. We came for a post-Christmas getaway, and although it was too cold to enjoy the water, we loved the fireplace. An unexpected treat was the pool table in a beautiful room with a water view. We played pool every night. Be aware that the house is secluded, but if you want peace and quiet, it's perfect. We went into Edenton for dinner one night and cooked the rest of the time. Hope to come back in warmer weather.

A true gift

Absolutely stunning home with exceptional amenities and views. Our family kept commenting on how grateful they were and what a special place we had found. We spent many hours reading, talking, sipping coffee (or wine) on the porch rockers and swing. Kayaking was fabulous. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook each meal including spices and other condiments. While we had planned to visit the Outer Banks none of us wanted to leave this quiet piece of paradise. Thank you for sharing this most beautiful place.

WOW!!!

My family and I had an amazing time. First, the house is fantastic. The pictures dont do it justice. Everything was just perfect. It's basically a resort. You can fish, swim, crab, kayak, paddle board, play ping pong, billiards, or basketball and more and never have to set foot off property. The views from the house are spectacular. On day 2 of our stay, the kids were already asking when we could come back. A return trip or 2 is definitely in the future. Check in is easy, and the host was very responsive with some questions I had about some things in the area. If you are contemplating staying here, do it, you will not be disappointed.

Amazing Stay 10/10!!

My family and I had the most remarkable stay in this beautiful home. Other reviewers are right- the photos simply don’t do it justice! The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need to cook meals at home, and the dining area is large enough to accommodate a big family. We seated 8 very comfortably around the dining room table and popped the two kids at the breakfast bar (which can easily seat 4). The bedrooms are spacious and the beds comfortable, and plenty of bathrooms to give everyone the space and privacy they need. There’s a gaming table, a comfortable living room, a pool table, and every outdoor game you can think of. It’s the perfect place to detach and unwind and spend quality time with family and friends. There is also a lot of nature to take in- the water, sunrise & sunset, turtles, bunnies, deer, birds, etc. So much relaxation and pure enjoyment. The host Tracey is amazing, super responsive, and a gem for sharing this beautiful home with us. The home is also located within reasonable driving distance to the beaches (OBX or Virginia Beach) but honestly given everything else to do right at the house, there’s not much need to travel too far! Pro tip: the dock on the property is a beautiful place for a marriage proposal! My daughter’s BF proposed to her on our trip, and I’ve since learned that this was not the first proposal in this spot! If you are looking for a romantic setting to propose combined with family and friends, look no further!

Great location for a multi-family getaway

We had an incredible stay at this VRBO! The location was absolutely ideal—peaceful, scenic, and just steps from the water. The property itself is spacious and thoughtfully laid out, making it perfect for multiple families traveling together. Everyone had room to spread out, relax, and enjoy their own space while still feeling connected.What really stood out was how generous and well-prepared the host was. They provided an amazing array of water gear—lifejackets, kayaks, and plenty of other fun items to enjoy the lake. Honestly, there was more to do than we could fit into a week! It felt like every day brought a new adventure, and the kids (and adults!) were never bored.This home is clearly cared for with love and attention to detail. We left feeling refreshed, connected, and already dreaming about our next visit. Highly recommend for families looking to make lasting memories together!
