D110- Large Private Saltwater Pool, 3 Bedrooms and Only 600 Yards to Beach!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved the classic feel of the house. The neighbors were friendly; beach access as easy. It really was great experience, and we will definitely look in to renting it again. (We have to coordinate various schedules or we would have booked before leaving!) The only downside was the outside of the house — it was covered in spiderwebs and could have used an overall sweep/leaf blower clean up. Also, we wished for better outside patio furniture so we could enjoy morning coffee, evening cocktails, and dinner on the deck. Overall, we had a great stay, but an outside quick clean and new furniture would make this house a true treasure.

Property was centrally located. It was an easy walk to town and beach.

Great place - photos don’t do it justice

Overall experience was not great. We waited for check in at 4 pm at the office however when we opened door to property the housekeeper was still cleaning. The cleaning I believe was rushed and in adequate since appliances were dusty and floor was sticky. Unsure why housekeeping was just cleaning since check out was 10 am for the previous occupant. Comforters on bed were not changed and we had to request a new set for our stay. Last but not least, we encountered roaches in the dwelling. We kept our suitcases closed to ensure we didn’t take any hitchhikers home

The house was perfectly sized for our family of 5 and walkable to both the beach and Duck boardwalk, restaurants, etc. The pool is particularly nice…just maybe needs some additional/updated seating/chairs in the pool area as a suggestion. The house itself is older but well maintained and priced well to allow us to stay 2 weeks. We would stay again.

Our stay was great! The house was exactly as advertised. The location into town was good. Little bit of a walk to get to the beach. The only thing I would change is the check in/out process. We are so used to renting a house with keyless entry. Having a key was very inconvenient. Especially, having a larger group and always making sure that someone had a way to get back in when they arrived home. Bringing a key to the beach was a nuisance as well. Definitely recommend to the owner to invest! We have rented with other realtors as well. Been going to Duck for over 20 years and this is the first realtor that didn’t allow us to hang out by the pool at the house while waiting to check in. We always were able to do that to beat the traffic and not having to go back out on that busy road to go get a key and physically check in at an office. Keyless entry, not having to physically go to realtor to check in/out and allowing guests to hang out by the pool until check in time. Other than those things our stay was perfect!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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: A nice house. Good aircon which was essentialas it was brutally hot.Comfortable for up to 5 people, more would have been a squeeze.Only nit was literally no washing up liquid or salt or any basics so had to shop for everything. That’s a shame and a pain and could easily be dealt with fir bc a tiny amount of money

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Description provides the basics: enjoyed the pool, easy walking distance to town and not too far of a walk to the beach. The house is ok but definitely needs some work: TV system was not great, refrigerator was small and ice machine is limited, Dryer makes an awful sound when running - had to leave the house when we started it and the beds were ok for aleeping. House needs some love but didn’t spoil our time.

If i were to ever buy a home in the outer banks, (which my husband and i have been discussing!) this home would be the perfect home for me and my husband! The location was perfect. This was my first time (EVER!) visiting and staying in Duck or anywhere in the northern area of the outer banks. For the last 7 years, we have always rented a home down on the island either in the Waves/Salvo area or mostly near Buxton and Frisco. Although i love those areas and did make sure i spent a full day during this trip, down there at those beaches, Duck and the area surrounding it seem more convenient and so warm and inviting. If the owner ever considers selling this home or doing a long term rental, i would definitely be interested, especially the rental option for now. I have wanted to move to this area for years now but could never decide where exactly! This home was perfect. Just a little suggestion, the owners may want to invest in an exhaust fan above the stove because simply turning the stove and oven on causes the fire alarm to go off from the heat. And maybe one in each bathroom as they tend to get very steamed up when showering and takes a while to clear that as well. The dryer has a very high pitched squealing noise coming from it whenever it is used whether for a full sized load of laundry or just a few items. The bedroom across from the hallway bathroom has no TV in it and he may want to add one for those who like to watch tv in bed. The lot itself needs to be trimmed.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I had stayed at this house a couple years ago and was very pleased. We love the pool and the deer that come in the yard and the location. BUT, This stay was not as enjoyable. The house was not well cleaned with food crumbs all over the kitchen and the floors and toilets were very dirty. But the worst thing was the **** ROACH INFESTATION. The place crawls with huge roaches and baby roaches. They are active day and night but, When we got up to use the bathroom at night there were 10 or more running the floor crawling the walls and ceilings and setting everywhere in the kitchen too. I was very disappointed since I had returned to a place that we really enjoyed a couple years before. When I rented from the owner directly, this was not an issue.
