Fiddlestix-Relax on Beautiful Hatteras Island

Our stay at Fiddlestix was great! It’s within walking distance of the beach and several local businesses. The house is the best we’ve stayed in: beautiful, LOTS of outdoor living/deck space and more than enough conveniences to make cooking and enjoying family time at the house a real pleasure. Highly recommend.

Very nice property

Close to the beach. Sheets and towels not provided.

We loved the property as a whole. The outside shower to rinse off from the beach was a perk I didn't realize it had but was thrilled it did since we have 3 children. The cable in one of the bedrooms didn't work, but it didn't matter as our youngest was in that room and never slept in there haha. Overall loved the property! Highly recommend.

Overall a good vacation. Nice location, easy beach access. Inside is somewhat dated; first floor a bit musty. But great decks and living areas.

My family and I had the best time while staying at Fiddlestix and absolutely loved the area! The house was very nice and felt homey, big bonus was the short convenient walk to the beach. I would absolutely stay here again!

Fiddlestix was a lovely house. The welcome gifts were a delightful bonus. Unfortunately, the twin bedrooms' television was broken, but that didn't affect us at all. I believed that we watched television a total of 6 times in our 9 day stay. The master shower was a bit small, and I wish there were a couple of extra towels, but overall, it was a very enjoyable stay and we loved the location and easy access to the beach. Plenty of room for everyone with lots of activities within a short distance.

All the right bits. This property ticked all the right boxes for our group. The living room has ample seating for 11 or more. Large eating table seats 8 and is open to the living room. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking items and everything was fully functional. Bedrooms and bathrooms were all well kept and mattresses comfy. Lots of room on multiple decks to enjoy different portions of the day. We liked the screen porch in the morning with coffee since it kept the sun out of our eyes. In the evenings, the upper porch was a relaxing with a nice mix of shade and sun. At ground level there are two parking spots beneath the house, one with a picnic table. This provided an area late at night to hang out. The beach is in reasonable walking distance (entrance across street 2 houses down); just stay on the path since the shrubbery includes some tiny but thorny cacti. The local shops were more sedate than upper Hwy 12 which is a nice change of pace. Convenient stores are very close but a full grocery store is 20 minutes drive. There are multiple rental and surf sport nearby for recreation and a great swimming hole/state park within1 mile. The water there is about 2.5 ft deep for hundreds of feet with soft sand and clear water. Great for little ones.

I wanted to take my parents, siblings, and niece to the beach this summer as a delayed Christmas gift and Santa certainly delivered! Carol and Ken's home is beautiful, spacious, and a very short walk to a wonderful (and not too crowded) beach. The home was nicely decorated and had more than enough amenities for us. We managed to pack mostly everything we needed, but if you forget anything there is a Dollar General very nearby and a Food Lion about 20 minutes away. I also STRONGLY recommend checking out the Waves Market and Deli; it's delicious very reasonably priced!All in all, an absolutely wonderful vacation and I can't recommend Fiddlestix enough! If we make another trip down to OBX I certainly plan on checking the availability of the property :)

This is a great place if you're looking for quiet and beach time. The beach was a short walk away. We had a bad weather week so we didn't get to see much of what OBX has to offer. We were inside a lot so I'm thankful that the hosts had a well equipped kitchen. Overall, a great place to stay. had a well equipped kitchenh makscomfortable.

Fiddlesticks was very clean and Carol was so good at communicating with us. The house was set up and stocked well which made cooking easy. We were 5 minutes from the beach and the walk was easy.

Great house, great location. Would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful stay at Fiddlestix. The house is in a great location. It was clean and had all the amenities we needed for our stay. The beach is a short but difficult walk over the dunes and not accessible for my elderly mother. Although she opted to stay back while we went to the beach, she enjoyed sitting in the screened in porch area and reading. There was something for everyone. Thank you for providing a beautiful place for our vacation.

We loved the beach!! Just a short walk away.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Fiddlestix! The house was very clean and met all our needs. The owners responded right away when we had an issue and it was resolved quickly. We would rent this property again.
