    Two main issues, EXTREMELY moldy washing machine, very gross. THE DECK is a splinter nightmare and very wobbly in places. Be careful. Otherwise, we enjoyed our time. Be aware that it is very difficult to walk to the beach due to man made dunes post-Erin and sandbags which are slippery and very large. Due to this, we will not be returning to this section of Buxton.

    I booked the house for my friend’s 30th birthday and we had a blast! The location was ideal, the property was clean. I loved that each bathroom was a good size and not cramped and the fact that the water got hot almost instantly when taking a shower and wasn’t impacted if we all took showers at the same time. The views were awesome. Definitely nice to wake up and see a beautiful sunrise from our decks.

    This house was very clean. It's a lot closer to the ocean than described which was a pleasant surprise. All but one bedroom had a private bathroom - another perk. Close to Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, restaurants, bait shops and both grocery stores (FL and Conners). Only downfall was the lack of kitchen essentials - only 2 silicone potholders and low quality pots/pans. We made the best of it and came prepared after reading other reviews. Again, it was very clean which is a sticking point for me.

    Spacious home with nice views of the ocean. Good place for families with pets. Right next to the pool/ hottub that is shared with other houses.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It’s always a pleasure to be back at Lighthouse View that’s our home away from home. This year was a little bit different as the beach replenishment was going on, but so glad to see that the beach has been restored.
