Great quite place very close to the beach
My family and I were SO very excited to find out that this home was EXACTLY as described. Dale and Vicki were very easy to get a hold of and flexible with our needs. Jut a few things to know - You WILL need a 4 wheel drive vehicle to access this property as it is about 30 minutes beach driving to and from the main road, and drivers MUST lower their tire pressures when driving on the beach. Not only is this a county ordinance, it will save you from getting stuck (luckily it didn't happen to us!) Anyway, back to the house - it is very quiet and even though not directly on the beach you can still hear and see the ocean from the upper deck. During our visit, we had several visits from the locals. Frogs were on the lower door greeting us each evening when we returned and on the upper deck in the mornings. One afternoon we were so excited to see a small haram of horses in the back and side yard. They stayed most of the afternoon. You can not go wrong with his home! We will definitely be returning next year!
This was our first time staying in Carova-make sure your 4x4 is in working order beforehand. Unfortunately our truck couldn’t navigate through the soft sand even though we aired way down to 10 psi. Called Mr. Clipper for assistance and he immediately sent help. We ended up renting a jeep the next day which was actually pretty fun. The house was easy to find on our navigation and Mr. Culpepper actually called us beforehand to let us know we were good to go and check- in a little earlier than expected. We found the house to be very accommodating and clean. The main floor is actually on the top floor, so you get great views. We did see a few horses outside the front door and on the beach. There’s an outside shower that’s really convenient so you can rinse the sand off your feet before going inside. On the tail-end of our stay, we attended a family wedding in Corolla so I was a little nervous driving back on the beach at night. A sea turtle must have laid eggs because they had a group of folks directing traffic with flashing lights so as to not accidentally run over the nest. Very cool to see that!
The house was perfect and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We cooked every morning packed up, went to the beach came home spent some time in the hot tub and then repeats for all the days that we were there. The very first day that we were there, we saw a wild horse grazing on the front yard. It was funny because he tapped the garbage can as he was walking away.
We enjoyed our second stay at Vicky and Blake’s house for our summer vacation. It was cozy, clean, and felt like we were at home. Kitchen and rooms had everything that we needed for our stay, and everything was in good condition. Plenty of board games to bring family together. Views from decks on both sides of the house were memorable. The house offers a lot of privacy, away from too many people. Blake was available to answer our questions in a timely manner, and even gave us heads up about NASA rocket launch that was taking place that week - took many nice photos and videos of the rocket flying through the night sky. We all were sad to leave this place, and planning on staying at this house again in the future.
Great stay great place !
Great place very clean great location if you love privacy which we do!
The house is super clean and very updated. It's hidden from everyone and you have a ton of privacy.
No words to describe how beautiful it is here! The house is immaculate! Everything you need and more to enjoy the vacation. Owners were great and very helpful! Wish we could have stayed longer. Such a fun adventure!
Beautiful house. Plenty of room. House is stocked with everything you could want.
Quiet, remote, away from the stereotypical touristy stuff, 2 blocks from the beach, a great location to decompress and recharge. We are thankful for having the opportunity to stay at this house as it met all our needs. We'd definitely consider staying here again in the future.
This place is great and clean. However, you need a Jeep or something with high clearance and not just AWD. The road to the property is 10 miles on a beach with very deep sand at times. You need to be very comfortable driving in loose sand. Our vehicle was 4WD but the clearance was not great and we got stuck a few times, but were able to dig out. However, it made future trips into town a bit stressful. The owners did warn about the need for a 4WD, I just didn't think it would be as deep and far as it was in reality. The property is great once you arrive.
Second time staying at Vicky and Blake’s house. We love it. Horizon views are great for sunrises. Had horses in the yard. Perfect place to get away from your fellow humans! Highly recommend!
This is our second time staying here. Always enjoy this house. We will be staying here again. Thank you Blake and Vicky
This Was the best vacation ever! The house was beautiful! The location was perfect! Time together as a family, priceless! Blake and Vickie were great hosts! Already told them we plan on making their house our vacation spot for next year. If you are looking for a relaxing spot away from the hustle and bustle of the OBX tourism, this location is for you. You will not be disappointed.
We had such a great stay at this property! Perfect location, great scenery and endless memories! We cannot wait to make a trip back to the outer banks.
Highly recommend this house! This was our first time staying at the 4x4 beach and it was a great location for it. The house is beautiful with lots of natural light, great views, and nice, open kitchen on the top floor. It is very close to the beach and is further north on the beach so it gets you away from some of the more populated areas. My toddler loved seeing wild horses every day. Blake and Vicky were great hosts and always replied straight away to our messages.
Lovely laid back place to stay close to the beach yet feels remote from the busyness of the beach which was perfect. Hosts were very helpful!
We enjoyed the house very much. The beach drive was fun once we got used to it. We got to see the horses too.
We had a great stay at your home. Very clean and everything we needed. The views are great being able to see the top of the trees with the ocean in the background is fantastic. Will stay here again.
Vicky and Blake were wonderful hosts and have the perfect nature retreat on Carova. House was just as described and they were very responsive. This home is tucked away in a private location with gorgeous sandy roads and peaceful surroundings. Drive to the beach and easily unload right from your Jeep or truck all while admiring the wild horses! We’d love to come back!
Property was just as described, located in a unique spot off the beach. House had everything we needed and then some. Highly recommend.
House is positioned so you watch the sun rise with your coffee and sunset as you relax in the living room. The 4x4 beach ride was an adventure! You can meander through an enchanted beach forest and be greeted by the occasional horse. The house is spacious with open concept kitchen/LR on the top floor, bedroom on the 2nd, then open garage. Blake greeted us on arrival and was quick to answer questions. First time at OBX. We will be back!
