4X4 beach. Private Pool open in May

Great quite place very close to the beach

My family and I were SO very excited to find out that this home was EXACTLY as described. Dale and Vicki were very easy to get a hold of and flexible with our needs. Jut a few things to know - You WILL need a 4 wheel drive vehicle to access this property as it is about 30 minutes beach driving to and from the main road, and drivers MUST lower their tire pressures when driving on the beach. Not only is this a county ordinance, it will save you from getting stuck (luckily it didn't happen to us!) Anyway, back to the house - it is very quiet and even though not directly on the beach you can still hear and see the ocean from the upper deck. During our visit, we had several visits from the locals. Frogs were on the lower door greeting us each evening when we returned and on the upper deck in the mornings. One afternoon we were so excited to see a small haram of horses in the back and side yard. They stayed most of the afternoon. You can not go wrong with his home! We will definitely be returning next year!

We had a great time! Vicky and Blake were very responsive to all our questions and the house was comfortable and reasonably well-equipped for cooking. The only thing we couldn’t find was a cutting board, but we didn’t think to ask for one so that was on us. The house was very easy to access from the beach. Highly recommend.

This was an excellent family friendly house for all ages!! It was beautiful and very functional. Games, beach toys, awesome hot tub and pool, and plenty of space for the 8 in our family to enjoy hours of fun. Exceptional host who helped us get there early due to high tides and responded quickly to any questions we had. This place felt like home!! I never sleep good on vacations and i slept like a baby every night!! Kitchen had everything we needed and we cook alot. We were thankful for all the towels and useful things around the house!! We highly recommend you stay here!

Fantastic place with everything you could possibly need to have fun. Great location and fantastic host.

I see a lot of terrible reviews for many places but this is NOT one of those! The house was exactly as described. It was well kept, clean, close to the beach, and a great experience all around. I highly recommend! If you are lucky enough to rent a property owned by Blake (there’s more than one) you won’t regret it!

Perfect secluded retreat, well appointed with everything you need to relax and unwind. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here- the property was absolutely beautiful!

Excellent time, even with a hurricane bearing down.

Great stay, so much fun driving through the dunes to get to your house.

The hosts were amazing! The house and property were beautiful! There were so many great memories we were able to make with our family. Ranging from the wild horses that we watched while drinking our morning coffee on the covered deck to having fun at the beach with our children. Just an all around awesome experience. We can't wait to come back and do it again!

Excellent property. Very private and secluded with easy access to the beach. The pool was an excellent addition. It was a great relaxation spot after being on the beach.

We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay in your cozy beautiful home! 10/10. Highly recommend this place!

Great experience! Property was perfect and created a beautiful getaway. Was able to spend the mornings at the beach and the afternoon in the pool. Evenings were great with the open loving room. Defiantly plan out your meals and make sure you get groceries before you get to the house. Lion King was perfect. Some really good options in Corolla for dinner and non beach activities. We had a great time. Make sure you pay attention to the signage about airing down your tires.

We had a great time at the house. We went to the beach, went on a charter fishing trip and a dolphin cruise in Manteo. We also got to see a bunch of the wild horses. We had so much fun.

Property was in very good condition. Very clean. Blake was very friendly and helpful.

We stayed for a long weekend as a family. The home had everything we needed and we thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and pool. The home many items needed for the beach including boogie boards, sand toys, chairs and an umbrella which was really wonderful!

Really enjoyed our stay. It was quiet, relaxing and we saw several horses. House was perfect for our family, well equipped and clean. Much appreciated. We plan to return.

We loved the house and the pool was absolutely refreshing! First time in Carova Beach and it was definitely an experience to remember.

We were very happy with the house. It had everything we needed. Beds were very comfortable. The pool was great. Would definitely stay there again.

Sometimes the amount of stars for places dont do it justice, I wish i could give this place 10 stars per category!! Blake and Vicky were amazing, and have made this place a go to for many years to come! We stay during July 4th week, this was the first time as a family without other friends there! The house is amazing, the view is out of this world, you can see the ocean and hear the waves at night, its absolutely amazing and so relaxing, the pool, what an amazing addition, we spent time on the beach, and days in the pool. A 4x4 is a must, air down to 12 psi, drop it in 4WD, pick a rut and enjoy the 30-40 min drive down the beach. Pack each day and drive out on the beach and park, and when you want to leave, pack up and drive back to the house! We most certainly will be staying again and look forward to it already!
