    This vacation rental was definitely the best equipped place we've ever stayed. We wanted for nothing...Plenty of towels, hand soap, lots of extras in the kitchen, games, loads of books, not to mention plenty of beach chairs and even a wagon to pull everything. We really had a very nice week. Great stay! Highly recommend!

    The hosts were amazing and were very responsive as we had a few issues and fixed up everything that they could. The house is a bit rundown but they are aware with the issues. It didn’t matter to us and the rustic feel was cute. We had a grill to use, as well as a griddle for pancakes. There was we also an air fryer for use as well. It was close to the beach, maybe a 7 min walk and super easy. There were walking trails all over but we didn’t get to use them. The beach items that we had available at the house to us was amazing, kayaks, body boards, skim boards, goggles, games, beach buggy/cart chairs and so much more. The two Salty Dog bikes were a huge hit with all the kids. The backyard was perfect for a fire and s’mores. We would definitely highly recommend staying here.

    My wife, son and I along with our dogs enjoyed this place for 12 days. The host was excellent with communication and was very accommodating of our time constraints for check in and check out with my 1.5 year old’s sleep schedule. The layout of the inside is awesome if you had a larger family or group staying where people could spread out to various rooms, with the central living room and kitchen that was beyond well equipped. A major determining factor for staying here was all of the beach items such as chairs, a wagon, kayaks etc which are shown in the listing. While we were too preoccupied with our little one to kayak, we very much appreciated the conveniences in this house. The beach was a short 5 minute walk and the neighborhood area was lovely and worth walking through as many days as we could get to it. We look forward to staying here again!

    This was our first visit to the OBX. Drew and Sara are phenomenal hosts. Their communication and problem solving methods are A. The weather was phenomenal. We anticipated sweltering heat being the last week of August. It was in the upper 70s/low 80s during the day with a cool breeze and very lottle humidity. At night it was in the 50s at night. We arrived just after Hurricane Erin which turned out to beneficial with the weather but we were unable to swim in the ocean for a few days due to the strong rip tides from the hurricane. We really enjoyed the town of Duck. We will definitely visit again.

    This was our second time staying here. We always enjoy our time. The house is well stocked and comfortable furnishings. The dogs love the fenced yard. The neighborhood is quiet and great for walks. Very easy to walk or drive to the beach. We appreciated the house providing beach towels and chairs.

    This was the perfect destination for our family get together. The fenced in dog yard made bringing the pets with us worry free. The house was very cozy and welcoming with plenty of room for everyone. Beach equipment available was added bonus. Well stocked kitchen made meal prep a breeze. Wish I knew about all of the beach towels and beach toys as I probably would not have brought so much myself. Quiet neighborhood and short walk to ocean was great. Would have used bikes but one tire was flat, no big deal though. Would definitely recommend. A lot to do in the area.

    The house was perfect for our family of 6. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. We used the trail on clam shell for beach access. We found it was closer and less busy than the Chicahauk access. We would stay here again

    This is our second summer at this property in Southern Shores and we plan to stay again next year. The bed rooms have plenty of space and the kitchen is well stocked. We didn’t bring our dogs this year but the property is perfect if you want to bring them. Our favorite aspect is the location. It’s a short walk to the beach and a short drive to grocery stores. It’s between Duck and Kitty Hawk so it’s a short drive to both. The stairs leading to the upper bedrooms are a little steep, and you have to take laundry outside and down the stairs, but those aren’t issues for us. We enjoy this property and will definitely stay again.

    We had a wonderful stay at this dog-friendly beach house! It was such a treat to find a place that welcomed our pups and had so many thoughtful amenities—kitchen, beach gear, games, books, washer/dryer and even a dog bowls. The location was perfect, and we spent hours enjoying the outdoor space and nearby beach, plenty of wonderful food options nearby, we LOVED Barefoot Bernie’s and Southern Shores Pizza and Deli. The only downside was the beds—they were a bit uncomfortable and could use an upgrade. But overall, the experience was fantastic, and we’d absolutely come back (especially if the beds get a refresh!).Highly recommend for anyone traveling with pets and looking for a relaxing getaway! We can’t wait to come back and visit again

    We stayed here while our home was undergoing some repairs and absolutely loved this place! It was perfect for our older dog, who explored the huge fenced in backyard and got to romp daily on the great beaches! We loved being able to easily walk to the beach and the walking paths and trails throughout Chickhauk were ideal! The hosts were so accommodating to our needs and super responsive. I would recommend this property to anyone who loves a cozy beach cottage experience.

    Stayed at this property for a week with my senior mom. It was everything I hoped for! Arrived to a spotless home. Spacious and comfortable with a well-appointed kitchen. Loved cooking dinner each evening and spending time in the living room just 'hanging out' with mom.The outdoor area is ideal for dog owners! I never had to fear my two hyper pups would get loose with the enclosed back yard and the gate setup.Dual heating zones kept the home toasty warm for my mom, water for showers was quite hot which was wonderful.Owners were responsive to any questions I had and the whole process of checking in and out was painless.Very grateful to have found this gem in the Southern Shores.

    We enjoyed our stay in this charming pet-friendly house. The house is well-furnished and clean. The setup of the house was very comfortable for everyone and it was well-stocked with bedding, towels, kitchen supplies, and beach items. The multi-gate system for the deck and lawn gave us great peace of mind for our dogs. The hosts were very helpful and communicative with us. Thank you for a great stay!

    Our family of six adults and one child with dogs enjoyed our stay at this beach house. It was close to beach access and beach parking. The fenced backyard was wonderful and the house was comfortable and well stocked. Our only complaint is that the shared upstairs bathroom door did not lock and there are no bathroom vents. This made it a little awkward going to the bathroom but would not keep us from renting again. The bedrooms were well furnished and the beds were comfortable. If you have anyone in your group with mobility issues just be aware that the steps to the upstairs could be a challenge. We enjoyed our stay and had a wonderful trip.
