The shower is decorated with our special beach treasures we've found over the years from around the world . We call it treasure from foreign lands. :-).

Ocracoke Island is truly a special place and was voted #1 Beach in America by Dr Beach for good reason. Where else can you find 13 miles of 4 Wheel Drive accessible, uninhabited, undeveloped, pristine beaches

    This charming cottage is an ideal place for one or two people. It has everything you need for a complete stay, all within a tiny yet comfortable space. Walking distance to most restaurants, shops, etc., however, beach cruiser bikes are available too! The queen bed was very comfortable. The linens were high quality. The space was very clean. There a porches upstairs and downstairs on both sides of the cottage with comfortable chairs. I didn't get to use the outdoor shower but hopefully next time!

    It’s a lovely place - well outfitted and in a great location. The deck out back is perfect having a few guests over. The balcony was our coffee spot.

    This cottage is in an excellent location, within walking distance of most of the fun things to do in the village. There is a local shuttle stop right near it on the street as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here & highly recommend you check it out for your visit to this laid back paradise!

    The place was quaint, easily accessible and exceeded our expectations. Although we did not have a water view, the location was perfect where it was. Everything on Ocracoke was easy to get to on foot or bike and the weather cooperated perfectly.Our biggest negative is that we did not have more time... maybe next year!

    We had such a good time. Getting our large truck in the parking space was a little hectic but we managed. Your place was so cute. The location was great. Hope to stay there again.

    The house and patio are very comfy in spite of being small. The amenities like bikes and water sports equipment are excellent and make it a great value. We had some storms come through and were unable to take full advantage of these fun things but we will next time!

    It is exactly as described, perfect for me and my husband! We were celebrating our milestone birthdays and wanted to go somewhere we've never been, so Ocracoke was perfect. Cottage is quaint, cozy, clean, and in a great location. We walked everywhere except the one day we rented the jeep (fun!) to go to the beach. Jeff and Wendy were so great about communicating! *Note, to anyone who has never been: we learned the hard way that you MUST check in to see if the ferry is running aftrr questionable weather. ? But it was an adventure.

    Zillie’s is at a great location to access many of the islands amenities. Zillie’s Island Pantry is next door for a convent adult beverage or a few snacks. During the summer a tram stop is also just a few steps away but having access to the on-site bikes was a plus for getting around at this time of year. Kitchen had everything we needed for our weeks stay. The cottage is very tastefully decorated and cozy.

    Cute little cottage with all the amenities. My husband was amazed at the craftsmanship. Loved riding bikes, although there was quite a bit of water in the roads from all the rain. I won't complain after what the western part of the state has witnessed. Great stay!

    Although this property was conveniently located close to the main road - and had the opportunity to use beach bikes as part of rental - the cottage itself was not very comfortable, the stairs leading to bedroom and only bathroom on second floor were dangerous, and it lacked outdoor privacy and views of anything beyond the nite sky which was lovely from upper deck. The back deck was connected to another property that included rear entrance to venue open daily from 11am-8:30pm and stairs leading to residence above so even though there was a sitting area and fun outdoor shower, you never knew when one of the owners or staff would be passing by or stepping out onto the deck for a break. So beware - the deck is not all that romantic or private and believe the cottage owners should be more transparent about this.

    The cottage was warm, cozy, clean, and inviting. My wife and I were looking for a place to unplug, and Ocracoke Island was just what we needed. Renting a golf cart to tool around the island, was pure joy. We highly recommend both the cottage, we stayed in, and the island itself.
