Our Kitty Hawk vacation

Our Happy place was nice, pool was great, place was clean. Not much room for games in the game room. Front steps need some attention several in our party almost fell due to cracked loose boards. Kitchen and living area where wonderful, kitchen well stocked with everything needed. We had a wonderful time. Never any issue parking at the beach, plenty of room for everyone. The extra refrigerator came in handy with a large group.

Our family of 8 adults, 2 toddlers, an infant, and 3 dogs had a wonderful week at Our Happy Place! While it is not super walkable to the beach (especially with the little ones and all their beach things), we found parking at Kitty Hawk Bath House most mornings, and there were almost always spots at the Lillian Street Access. The pool was a highlight especially considering we encountered a jellyfish heavy week at the beach. The kitchen was mostly well stocked, and the bedrooms were suitable for our families needs. We did not make much use of the game room or hot tub but both seemed inviting. The host was attentive to any issues that we faced and check in and check out were a breeze. This was our first large family trip, and our first time in OBX and if we plan another trip Our Happy Place would be where we'd like to stay.

Much needed break

Love the convenience and the size of the house. Everyone has their own space to spread out. Loved the pool and hot tub. My boys loved the pool table and ping pong table. My furry boys enjoyed the walk around the neighborhood as well. Will stay again.

Already planning a trip back!

Stayed here for a friends wedding weekend 15 mins down the road & we want to turn it into an annual trip! Kacie was amazing and the house was exactly as published. All bedrooms were a good size. Pool, hot tub, games, and a quick walk to the beach. Couldn’t ask for anything more!

Great Property!

Overall it was a great stay! The downfall to the location is being across a super busy street from the beach (which is in the description). The pool could have been cleaned a little better! Our stay was pretty cold and rainy for the end of May but there were a ton of things to do in the house!

Fun as usual

The house was very nice. Everyone enjoyed the ping pong table, pool table, foosball,pool, and hot tub. The gas grill was great (no buying charcoal) I took an electric scooter and explored the neighborhood. I kept off the highway naturally and that kept us from using the scooter to the fullest. The kitchen was well equipped, parking was very good (we had 3 cars) and the pool area was used daily.

OBX beach vacation

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit here! Access to the beach and a nice pool to relax in after was wonderful. Only difficulty was a public restroom with younger children while on beach. We tried to park at public bath house, but usually lot was full. We did enjoy a Sunday dinner ordered at OBX boil company, seamless and easy seafood for all! Also went on captain jacks dolphin tour and I don’t suggest with smaller children because it’s 2 hours long. We also had a great dinner at owens restaurant. The house was comfortable and welcoming also well decorated! 2 refrigerators for leftovers and water bottles for beach days. We all enjoyed our stay!

Lovely getaway!

Stayed from Aug 26-Sept 2 2023, have been to OBX many times before, but usually stay in Nags Head. It was 6 adults (parents + 2 adult children and their spouses), 1 child (>1 yr), and our dogs. The property itself was very nice- clean, bright and spacious. The stairs are a great workout, but certainly could be tiring for some folks. Also had plenty of nice flatware and glassware- something you rarely find in house rentals- so that was very refreshing! Pool was perfect, we spent a lot of time there. It was kind of hot for the hot tub, but we did go in once and it was also very nice. Brand new grill! We used it to cook a meal one evening. Very close to a lot of things- grocery, Brew Thrus, restaurants, ice cream, souvenir shops, etc. The only downside doesn't really have anything to do with the house itself, but it's proximity to the beach. The house is on the non-ocean side of a VERY busy 4-lane road, so you have to walk a ways down (no sidewalks) to use a crosswalk, or you can drive. We usually like to be closer to the beach and walk instead of packing the car, driving, parking, unpacking, etc., so we ended up spending less time on the beach then I personally would have liked. May not be a big deal to others, just a preference that I should have paid closer attention to when booking. Overall, would definitely recommend! Especially if you're more of a pool person than a beach person :)

Mermaid Way

The family and I had originally booked Our Happy Place. The owner called to let me know that there was a problem at the property and that it could be fixed but it wouldn't look great or we could switch to their other property. We decided to switch to Mermaid Way. This property was great. The family loved the whole house, including the hot tub, pool and new game room. The location was good. Easy walk to the beach. Mini golf and grocery store right across the street. There was even dog bowls, a dog bed and chew toy for our dog. The only down fall is it is right next to the main road, so there is a lot of traffic noise. You do get use to the noise. The owner is quick to respond and very accommodating. The family would definitely return to this property. wouldproperty.planreturn.fallthough.
