Outstanding Ocean Views! Simple Beach Cottage On Private Sand Road In Corolla

My wife and I stayed at Angi's beach cottage and it was the best vacation we ever had. First time in OBX. Cottage was perfect for us it was simple, secluded and the scenery was breathtaking. Horses visited often day/night. We fell in love with OBX Smooth Sailing exceeded my expectations in everyway.

Great location...horses visited often, great views, close to beach...allows dogs!

Good

Our trip was great. We loved the 4x4 beach and the wild horses. The house was a great location and the host having a beach parking permit and 5 gallon water jug was so nice. Not sure who cleans the house but it doesn’t get cleaned well. In the kitchen above cabinets and ceilings had loads of dust and cobwebs. All pictures in the house haven’t been dusted in a very long time either. I also have never stayed somewhere where they didn’t provide bed sheets or towels so that was a big inconvenience to bring our own because I wasn’t paying over 100 for sheets and towels. The pine tree hanging over the outside stairs needs trimmed because we kept getting hit in the face going up to the second floor. Over all our stay was great but the property has been neglected some.

We are older so the stairs were a little tough for us. The beds were not comfortable for us either. The view was spectacular. It was really had to find the first time. The manager responded to every request very quickly. There was a bug frozen in the freezer.

Great location and communication with property manager. The house is good size for single family. It has a rustic and beach vibe decor. Although I prefer white simple decor. The furniture is comfortable. The mattress and bed linen could use an update. The place is clean enough but can use a good full house cleaning.

This property was amazing. Secluded enough to feel comfortable and safe but within a few miles of shops and dining. The wild horses come to the house everyday and the ocean view is amazing. Driving on the beach is a unique experience. We will return for sure and Angi was a pleasure to work with. Kathleen C

Smooth sailing is a peaceful gem on the 4x4 beach. We love the location. Sitting on the deck or in the sun room is magical. You can only hear the sounds of the waves and the birds. We saw 4 wild horses in yard on our last day!!! Truly a wonderful place to stay. The house is nothing special/fancy, but it has character and is well equipped with everything you may need!

There were 2 of us staying for the week. It's the perfect size for a small group. The views from the top deck are perfect. The horses were around almost daily. I also loved listening to the frogs after the hurricane passed through. The home was well equipped.

Great location for those who want to be away from the crowds. 4-minute walk to the beach, great views, shaded lower deck with upper deck above, clean, and incredible stars at night. We spent hours on the upper deck watching the stars and satellites. Must have a 4-wheel drive vehicle to get there. About 2.5 miles up the beach. We rented a Jeep for this trip. Saw the wild horses in the dunes and in the driveway. Great memories. Angi is a great host and person. Thank you.

We had an amazing time here! The kitchen had everything we needed and the views were incredible from the top deck. The horses added to the beauty. We saw them every day and under the deck one night! It was the best time!

This house was everything we expected and needed for a family getaway. The location was perfect; it was within walking distance of the beach but tucked away. We saw the horses every day, and twice, they were cooling off under the house! The kitchen was well appointed and had everything I needed to cook. The grill outside was very clean and easy to use. Having the 5 gallon water tank was a huge bonus for us. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were perfect. I loved the master shower! We loved the views from the deck and appreciated the new Adirondack chairs. My only complaint would be some of the nails on the upper deck need to be replaced or hammered in. My husband ripped his foot open on one of the ones sticking out. We made sure to have shoes on after that. This is a wonderful house and I wouldn't hesitate to book again! We had the best time!

Very nice and relaxing
