    We had an incredible 5-day stay at this beautiful home in the Outer Banks with 20 family members, and it couldn’t have been more perfect! The house is spacious, with four levels of living space that gave everyone plenty of room to spread out and relax. It’s located right on the sound, and the shallow water was ideal for the younger kids to safely splash and play. We also made great use of the kayaks!The kitchen was impressively well-equipped—everything we needed and more. The private pool and hot tub were definite highlights, and although it was too windy to use the grill during our stay, it didn’t take away from the experience. The home was spotless upon arrival, which we really appreciated.The location was also super convenient. A grocery store was right outside the neighborhood, and there were two basketball courts nearby that the kids (and adults!) really enjoyed.All in all, it was an awesome family getaway, and we would absolutely love to stay here again. Highly recommend!

    This is the second year we’ve stayed here. We love the house and how close to the bay it is. The kayak and paddle boards are an awesome addition to have!!

    The sound view from this property is amazing! It was very spacious and was the perfect spot for our large family gathering. Walking to the ocean side is not really an option for most people. But it is just a short drive away. The kitchen was well stocked making it easy to prepare meals for a large group. Enjoyed the theater. Spent a lot of time in the pool & hot tub. Had a great vacation here. The name Heaven’s Gate is very appropriate!

    Right on the sound. Easy to kayak and paddle board right from the back yard. Nice pool and theater room (needs better directions on getting that theater room to work though!).

    It's been hard to move from dealing with Hatteras Realty to Vacasa, which is a nationwide firm. Many times I end up talking to someone in who knows where that has no idea about the house or the area. However, after not getting satisfaction, I asked them to have someone from the local area contact me. Tom responded immediately and took care of what I needed. The folks on Hatteras Island have always been great to deal with. By the way, the house is spectacular and well-equipped. Even when we had a few needs, the local folks responded within an hour or two. Just goes to show that even when you get bought by the a large corporate entity, you can still do your best to show excellent service. Thanks!
