    The place was very clean. There are pots and pans available for cooking as well as everything else you need. This made a great place for me to explore up and down the outer banks from, and I plan to come back soon!

    This property was as described. The host was very responsive to communications of a few questions/issues. On a quiet street. It is walkable to the beach, but have to cross busy roads; there is a crosswalk (for at least the busiest road). The grocery store and some places to eat are walkable. Many other great choices for eating and shopping very close by. Perfectly situated about halfway between other Outer Banks sites like the lighthouses and Corolla. Wright Brothers Memorial and Jockey's Ridge very close by. We loved staying here as a couple just looking to visit the Outer Banks without the crowds and heat of the summer. There is a lot to see on the Outer Banks.

    Meg was a super hostess. Very friendly and accommodating. The cottage was spotless and very comfortable. You felt like you were at home. The surrounding neighborhood is walkable with a beautiful park near by.

    This is a beautiful property with lots of amenities. The bed was very comfortable. Check-in was easy. It is well located and about 1/2 mile from the beach. It was spacious for two people. The internet worked well. There was a full size washer and dryer. There were lovely front and back porches. Parking was easy. The kitchen was great, although supplies were limited (e.g., 4 mugs, 4 short glasses, 4 tall glasses, etc). I did not appreciate needing to remove the bedding to put it and the towels in the washer given the price of the rental, but that's a small detail.

    This place was perfect for a mom and dad getaway. It was clean, roomy, and close to everything. The owner left notes throughout the place to fill us in on places to visit, eat and how things work! Would highly recommend this place and would love to visit again!

    Great, clean property! Meg knows what she is doing with her helpful signs throughout the first floor for what to clean at check-out. Well done with seating on the back porch perfect for coffee, plenty of ceiling fans, and lots of lighting. Kitchen was well stocked too. My only recommendation is if you are cold-natured, bring slippers/socks for the tile floors! We had a great long weekend and would highly recommend this property in Nags Head. Close to all the good spots. We can't wait to go back! Thanks!

    This home was very comfortable and clean and, although in a neighborhood, felt private. A quiet and convenient place to stay for a few days. The kitchen was well stocked. The front and back porch were nice areas to relax on. We would stay there again next time in that area. Also, the host was very accommodating when we had to adjust our dates at the last minute.

    I had a great stay here—everything was just as advertised. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and check-in was smooth and easy. The location was ideal—close to restaurants and walkable to downtown, but still quiet at night. The staff was friendly and responsive when we had a quick question about parking. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to others looking for a relaxing and convenient place to stay.

    Nice place for 2 people. Very clean, bed was comfortable, easy check in and out.Great location more or less centrally located for all the attractions. Close to restaurants and shopping. Quiet neighborhood. Host was very responsive. The only drawbacks were lack of kitchen supplies and linens. Only 2 threadbare towels provided 2 washcloths 2 hand towels. Bring your own towels if you stay here. Minimal amount of cooking supplies except for spices. Also only a 5 cup coffee maker.TV in living room has no volume control and if you mute it you have to turn off and on again to get it unmuted. I would stay here again.

    Unimpressed. House needs some updates. Floors need to be cleaned. Needs more cooking utensils in the kitchen. Feel the cleaning fee is a little extra. We have to strip bed, put on laundry, take out trash, wash dishes.. we are basically cleaning all we used. Cheaper to stay at an extended stay.
