Beautiful location, house comfortable but needs TLC

We loved being able to access the beach so easily. There are windows and deck seating that need to be replaced, and we were surprised that we had to rent our own linens, but our siblings and families enjoyed the open layout and functional kitchen.

Bazaar

This 2.9 million dollar house is in a fabulous neighborhood and it has beautiful views of the ocean. We were disappointed in the cleanliness of the house. We brought our concerns to the owner and her reply was “ I saw it after the cleaners left And it was fine”. Cheezits on the floorChildren’s underwear under the bedDirty dishes in the stove and dish washerMold in the ventsHorrible patch job in on of the bedroom rooms and after it rained the “patch” filled with water and was ballooning. We moved out of that room and doubled up in another. Beautiful location, dirty house.

The property is located right on the beach and dolphins swam by each day. However, the property needs attention. We had 2 ceilings with leaks (known because trash cans were placed underneath when we arrived), lots of ants inside & out, light switches had to be wiped down, bed skirts were torn, etc. It could be a great

Peaceful and on the beach

The place is dated but worked for our needs. Elevator was a plus, the incline on the stairs is daunting! Kitchen was well stocked and spacious. A few of the mattresses were could use updating or at least a mattress topper for comfort. All in all it’s a rental property on the beach, coffee in the morning watching the dolphins is worth it

Great stay at Croatan

This property isn't perfect and has some cosmetic flaws but overal it is a lovely house with an AMAZING view and access to the beach. The beach had a lifeguard right out front. There is no crowd and a ton of surfers to watch in the area. The house was clean. No sheets or linens are provided so be sure to arrange that ahead of time or bring them. Croatan is really family-oriented so you need to drive to any bars or restaurants, but that's what we were looking for. Overall amazing stay in a lovely home. We'd stay again for sure.

Great house

This house was perfect for our family vacation. The location was perfect- right on the beach and close to the restaurants near the oceanfront area. We had an issue with the wifi at first, but Lori was very responsive. We would definitely book this house again!

Beautiful location!

Open house layout of kitchen very accommodating for cooking and socializing. Some deferred maintenance issues, (windows not opening, siding, fence in walkway, worn sinks and bath) but did not stop us from having tons of fun. Great master bedroom and shower. We hope to return!

Girls’ Trip

We visited for a girls’ trip (me, my 80 year old mom, and 28 year old daughter) and had a wonderful time! My mom loved the elevator and enjoyed watching the ocean from the deck on the third floor. The house is beautiful, clean, and has great views of the ocean! It is only a short walk to the beach using the home’s personal walkway. The beach is very private since it is disconnected from the boardwalk. We also loved that we were able to bring our pets! Lori is a great and communicative host. We had the best time and would definitely come again!

Worked well for my family and friends. Great being right on the beach!

The elevator was very helpful bringing everything in. Plenty of room and bright large living area which is where we spent our time when not walking on the beach or sitting on the deck. We were lucky to have a few nice days for this time of the year. Beautiful sunrises right out the windows.

Annual race weekend at the beach. Awesome location, view from porch and walkway to the beach were amazing. Both have been replaced and are in great condition. Plenty of size to accommodate 3 families with children. As mentioned in reviews the interior is outdated, but did not damper our stay.

Realxed beach stay

Our stay was just like the title...a relaxed beach stay. We had everything we could need at the house and the owner was quick to check in on us apon arrival and made herself available for anything we might need. Folks who complain about every fit and finish are not enjoying thier vacation like they should. We will definitely be looking at this property again, if still available, the next time w e head to the beach. It was a true pleasure.
