Thanks for sharing your house with us!" - "This home is absolutely delightful! From the well-stocked kitchen to the charming decor, you fall in love the moment you walk in the door. We have never stayed at a cleaner beach house! The location is perfect - secluded, yet an easy walk to the beach. We spent most of our time on the screen porch/deck. There was always a breeze and the star gazing was amazing. We even caught a full lunar eclipse. I only hesitate to say how much we loved it because we'll never be able to get another reservation it will be so popular! Thank you for a perfect week."

- "The house is well laid out, well furnished, super clean, and with all the amenities we could possibly ask for. The beds are very comfortable, and having all kinds of games for the kids to play is a nice touch, as is plenty of popular books for reading. The house is on a short and very quiet street, with cul-de-sacs at each end. We were very impressed at how often the very convenient shuttles came by to take us and our stuff to the beach, and they are super friendly and treat you like royalty. The house was great for our dog as well, he was very comfortable and well-behaved, and enjoyed watching over the grandkids, from the shaded back porch/deck, playing in the pool, which is also shaded a good portion of the day. Our very gracious host was extremely responsive, and provided great recommendations on restaurants entertainment ideas for our vacation week. We look forward to visiting the area again and would certainly stay in this beautiful home again. Thanks!"

The screened-in porch and hammock quickly became favorite spots to start and end the day. Terri provided terrific suggestions on things to do and places to eat - many within walking distance of the house (the lighthouse climb is well worth the effort!). And beach access was merely steps away! Terri could write the "best practice guide" to ensuring guests are prepared for their trip and feel welcomed and well cared for while there.

- "We just returned from a lovely stay at this home. It is very clean and well-appointed with an updated kitchen and furnishings. The home is well-designed - the master bedroom and bath upstairs and 3 bedrooms and bath downstairs allowed 3 generations of our family to sleep comfortably and still have privacy and some personal space when we wanted. It is very tech-savvy as well - with flat-screen TVs in various rooms and great wi-fi- it kept the teenagers happy and let the grown-ups check in with work as needed. The kitchen was great - super clean with all of the small appliances (coffee-maker, toaster oven, toaster, mixer, etc) and pots and pans we needed to cook Thanksgiving dinner! Hair dryers in each bathroom were a nice surprise, and being within walking distance to groceries and shops was a bonus. The beach and dunes are beautiful here and Will and Lindsay were kind and thoughtful hosts - checking that we arrived safely and had what we needed, and making our family (dog included) feel welcome. We loved it and will definitely visit again. Thank you for a great vacation!"

- "Super clean and comfortable stay. Everything was immaculate and we loved the deck. We even got a visit one evening from the horses under the deck and house. Definitely would stay again!" - "We had a great stay in this beautiful little property right off the beach. The property owners were very communitative with us prior to and during our stay. The property was clean and had everything we needed. It was only a few minutes walk or drive down to the beach. If you don't know much about the area, do your research on beach driving in the Outer Banks. It was very different from what we had expected. But we didn't let that deter us from making the best of an amazing week of weather and a top notch location."

A hidden gem of relaxation with the excitement of possibly seeing a wild horse around the corner. The owners were friendly and helpful and the house was perfect!" - "It was a wonderful weekend stay, the hosts were very nice and helpful all the way through the checkout process. The property was very quiet and relaxing. We saw lots of the local wild horse's which just made the stay that much better. The only downfall of the trip was the weather a couple of days, but that just made it perfect for the hot tub and relaxing and napping which is the main goal of any vacation. Do yourself a favor and book here and make sure you drive around the area and check out the beauty that surronds you. Thank you again for an amazing and relaxing weekend getaway!!!"

Located in the heart of Carova, wild horses roam the property. A short walk or drive (2 minutes) to the beach nestled with in the live oak trees. House sits 3rd row back from the ocean front. Great views of the ocean and beautiful sunsets. Safely located 1.5 blocks from FD/EMS. (MUST HAVE 4X4 TO GET TO THIS PROPERTY) We have well water in this area of the Outer Banks. Though we have a complete water system, please bring bottled water for drinking and cooking.
- "This is a great place for a family. The house has everything you need and was very clean and comfortable. There is an ice maker and water filter which we made use of. Pristine beaches with wild horses a short walk- or even shorter drive from your door. The house has a high lookout with a great view of the ocean. The listing makes it clear that we needed bottled water and a truck with 4 wheel drive so we came prepared and are now seasoned beach drivers. I’m glad we arrived early because it’s an hour round trip to the grocery store, and you don’t want to drive the beach at night when the tide comes in. Read up on beach driving if it’s new to you. This made the trip even more of a fun adventure for us though. We watched the sunrise on the beach and came back to wild horses grazing in the lawn behind the house. We flew kites, hunted ghost crabs and built sandcastles. Very memorable. Would love to come back someday."

Two people will fit perfectly in this cozy cabin tucked into the live oaks. The cabin is located across the gravel driveway from our main house. It is circled in one of the photos. Our property is 10 acres so you can enjoy the beach by day and retreat to the cabin at night. The estate is three roads from the ocean--but tucked behind the dunes and in the live oaks. Our ten acre property is totally private. It is relaxing.
Your cabin has a king size bed, internet, TV, nice shower, loveseat, refrigerator, microwave, mini oven, keurig coffee maker, instapot, two bar chairs, and chairs on the deck. We supply towels and linens of course, dishes, glasses and such.
There are more cooking options at the pool area, with an outdoor grilling area and a large fridge in our pool house (in case you want to have a bigger boil or meal or store beer and ice). We didn't crowd the cabin's calm living space with too much stuff and wanted to minimize the risk of a fire under the oaks.
This cozy cabin is perfect for a couple--with open space.
The larger home may be occupied by my family. We do not rent the larger house when you are at the cabin. The driveway divides the space and you have your own private parking area. The property has a pool that we can share. You will have the opportunity to use the pool during the daylight hours (Memorial Day through September only )--we can coordinate the times so you can have privacy (and us too) and we can decide how that will work together.
If you want to check out the whole estate or you are interested in renting the whole estate, check out: https://www.vrbo.com/347617. For our guest's privacy, we do not rent both to separate parties at the same time.
