5.0 / 5.0
We were a group of 6 adults and one child under 3! Loved that 3 of the bedrooms had attached bathrooms so each set of adults had our privacy! Plenty of room to spread out with a rec room on one level and sitting area and large kitchen table on an upper level. We spent mornings having coffee on the front porch on rocking chairs and the evenings on the back deck overlooking the ocean! Can’t get better than that! However it does! House was very clean, plenty of towels, beach chairs, and beach toys. Kitchen was well stocked with all necessities including plenty of spices! We spent most days on the beach that was steps away; however, grocery store, restaurants, miniature golf, parks, etc.. are minutes away. This beach house was homey with a family cottage vibe. Brought back great memories of weekends spent at a family cottage up north.
5.0 / 5.0
Great property that is reminiscent of the old cottages of the outer banks. That’s exactly what we were looking for - old charm and modern amenities. All four bedrooms are private and isolated from each other. No neighbors to the north, which makes view from oceanfront deck even better. There is a lower covered porch with old-style awnings. Great place to hang out in the evenings with a breeze. Some boards above this porch were falling and letting debris down onto porch floor. I let host know and he was quick to respond. I went ahead and cleaned it up because I wanted to enjoy the porch sooner rather than later. Some other deferred maintenance on exterior (thus 4 stars on cleanliness) but otherwise house is fantastic.

Making memories! By far the best vaca yet. It was my husband and I and our 3 grown children with their significant others, and one dog! We all had our own space, the set up was wonderful!! We each had our own bathroom and at night we hung out at the pool table and played games. I can’t think of anything else we needed. It was perfect! Cannot
Wait to come back. Homeowner really thought of everything. So nice having extra chairs and the beach cart! I cannot say enough. Very clean and spacious.

We loved the house and being able to sit on the deck and see the ocean. Website needs updating a bit. Kmart no longer marks turnoff, but Target does one coffee pot, not two, and no coffee grinder. Otherwise everything was wonderful and we had a great week.
5.0 / 5.0
We took our teenage son and 6 of his buddies to the beach for a week, and this house was well suited to this group of boys. Beach, pier close by, pool table and big screen tv on the lower level for times when it was not sunny, and easy walking distance from Target/Starbucks, Jolly Roger restaurant, and convenience stores.
We tend to cook at home rather than go to restaurants, and the kitchen was well-appointed for all we needed. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were updated. The kitchen/dining/smaller sitting area on the upper floor was also updated, while the rest of the house was the more traditional wooden walls of the Outer Banks houses. We really appreciated this choice by the owner - not just any old dry-walled beach house, this one had good character!
5.0 / 5.0
This was our second year coming to OBX in mid-May and while the weather didn't really cooperate this time we still had a wonderful visit with friends thanks in part to the comfort and amenities of this house. Location is right on the beach in the heart of Kill Devil Hills with a great deck off the kitchen/living area overlooking the dunes and ocean, and there's a lower level deck with a nice hot tub. The house is obviously an old classic beach house as seen from the outside but has been fully updated with modern bathrooms and kitchen, and everything is nicely appointed. The house was found very clean on arrival. The downstairs "rec area" has a nice quality pool table (an old repurposed bar table) that we also enjoyed. You'll be in for plenty of stair climbing to get in and out of the property so keep this in mind if you anyone in your party is disabled, but for the able-bodied this is a great find.
5.0 / 5.0
The house is well located, well equipped, and comfortable Nice view of the beach from the upper floor. Easy walk to the beach and close to shops, restaurants, and attractions.
We were given incorrect directions, entry, and wifi instructions, but the owner/agent was easy to reach and corrected that quickly.

We really enjoyed our stay here. We enjoyed the hot tub, fireplace and pool table very much. Location was great. We'll definitely be back.

Our 2nd stay here and once again had an amazing time. The house was clean and comfortable, the view was perfect, and we loved walking to the pier or to Awful Arthur's for a great dinner. Greg responded almost immediately when we had questions. We hope to be back next year!
5.0 / 5.0
What a great property! We spent the whole month in this house and hated to leave it! All the porches were fantastic and the ocean view just could not be beat! Greg was very attentive and quick to respond when we had a problem with the dishwasher. He was there 2 days later with a brand new one. We hope to come back and stay again!

5.0 / 5.0
The property was perfect for our off-season getaway. The renovated kitchen, including new appliances, had everything we needed to cook at home while looking out the huge bay windows onto the beach. The kids loved the pool table and the hot tub. The bathrooms were also newly renovated and very nice. The owner could not have been more kind or responsive through the booking process and stay. We liked the location and walked to Awful Arthur's one night and to breakfast at the Jolly Roger another morning. There's everything you could need in this home!

house is fine but owner is extremely difficult to deal with. Who needs that aggravation when there are so many nice houses available.

4.0 / 5.0
The location was great and the space was wonderful for our family. The walk to the beach was easy and we had all the things we needed to enjoy our stay. My only complaints are that one guest room was not cleaned and there was dog hair and sand in the sheets. The rugs were obviously not vacuumed well. There was quite a bit dog hair on all of them. We filled nearly half the canister of the vacuum after vacuuming the kitchen area and the bed room that my children were sleeping in. I did reach out to the host and he sent the cleaning company over to assist, which was very considerate of him. We had already washed the bedding and vacuumed the rugs as I have a baby that was crawling on the floor, but the fact that an effort was made to help was very much appreciated.
5.0 / 5.0
The views from the house are stunning and love that it was right on the beach. We basically had the beach to ourselves most of the time. The house was adequately stocked and very charming. The pool table is coin-operated, which put a bit of a damper on my boy's time, but they opted to do other things instead. Beds were very comfortable. The house is exactly as described in the photos and Greg was very responsive to all of my questions. We had a great family vacation!

Great time at this beach property. On a great spot on the beach and easy access to grocery store, restaurants, etc.
5.0 / 5.0
We really enjoyed our stay at this home in KDH. The kitchen was beautiful and the view was amazing. We were steps from the beach and there were plenty of comfortable beach chairs. We brought our own umbrella thanks to great communication from the owner but didn't have to waste space in the car for beach chairs. The property, built in 1947, is completely renovated inside but still has the rustic feel of a true beach house. We had a great time at this beach house and the owner was always attentive and a quick phone call away. Thanks,
Matt, Renee and Griffin

The house was clean enough when we came in; however, we found leftover items (food under bed) from the previous renters.
The location and views were gorgeous.
The washing machine, a desired and required amenity was broken upon our arrival and was not fixed during our stay.
The pool table was broken upon our arrival and not repaired during our stay.
The refrigerator doors had built in drawers which someone had broken and lazily reinstalled. We lost some of our food when the drawers fell of the doors and came tumbling to the floor.

Perfect spot, beautiful house. Only complaint is that beach restoration was going on while we were there. Poor timing to be doing a project on the beach the week leading into 4th of July weekend. Totally out of homeowners control, wish we were notified about prior. Will be back, but will be paying attention to the next time this work is planned.
5.0 / 5.0
This beachfront home was EXACTLY what we wanted! It was gorgeous inside and the view was amazing. There were 6 of us and there was plenty of seating and we took advantage of all the seating options. Our favorite parts of the homer were the Nags Head swinging chairs, the top balcony and the kitchen. The electric fireplace and the pool table added additional ambiance. We hung out at the beach and enjoyed every part of our stay!

The house, the location, the furnishings are all absolutely perfect. We all hated to leave!

Great stay here. When you think of a laid back beachfront home, this is it. Timeless beach house on the outside and modern renovation inside.
Everything was provided for, just bring your toiletries (shampoo/body wash/lotion was not included).
Location on the beach and close to attractions and necessities were an added plus.
Would love to stay here again.

Amazing getaway to a perfectly appointed beach house! The look of the exterior is what drew us in..The interiors and the oceanfront setting sealed the deal. The close proximity to the Wright Brothers Memorial/Monument was exactly what we were looking for(and of course to be on the beach as well). PLENTY of room for our teenage boys to spread out — yet congregate at the wonderful pool table…and that they did! Our boys also loved walking down the beach to the pier and playing arcade games (nice folks there too). Thanks to Greg for a beautiful place as well as his dining recommendation of The Black Pelican (fantastic). A stree-free, relaxing Outer Banks getaway (with a focus on visiting the Wright Brothers Monument) was our goal this trip. “Timeless Retreat” beach house checked every box we had. Awesome place! We hope to return. Thank you again, Greg!

Great views, nicely redone kitchen, dining room, living room area. The archetype of the OBX beach house! The room layouts reflect the 1940s roots of the home (a few are awkward). The heating is uneven in the house. We would stay here again.
5.0 / 5.0
We had a very positive experience with this accommodating and flexible host, who went out of his way to help when we had to make a minor change of plans. Most of the interior of the house has been updated nicely, including what I consider most important, the kitchen and bathrooms, as well as the main living space. The exterior spaces/furniture are older and could use a refreshing. We had an excellent stay.

We had a wonderful time exploring Outer Banks! This was the perfect place to stay - close to everything, right on the beach, very comfortable for our group.

My wife & I were looking for a vacation to relieve the pandemic stress. Having heard about & seen OBX stickers, we started looking here. A friend suggested VRBO and we found this gem! We booked it and just could not wait to get there. We had our daughters, a boyfriend of the daughter and our doggy Raja. The boyfriend is now the fiancé following his romantic beach proposal!!
Once we arrived at this house, we were awestruck at the view of the ocean from the upper deck! We woke up every morning to see some spectacular sunrises and dolphins playing in the ocean.
The house is well rounded. The kitchen and dining areas are phenomenal. We would all gather there and work on our laptops, play games, have lunches. The kitchen itself is great with modern appliances and pots and pans. I suggest that you look at the upper cabinet for spices & such left by prior visitors. The bathrooms are convenient as well.
The location is just perfect. Everything you want is 5 to 10 minutes away.
Greg was a great communicator. The whole reservation process & the stay was without a hitch.
We will be back again in the future. I have already recommended this to all my friends and coworkers.
We highly recommend this exceptional house for a memorable family vacation.

Greg,Our family enjoyed our stay at your vacation house with the positives being weather, location, wonderful views, thoughtful updates to home, and amenities. The reason why I can not give you a 5 star is because of the cleanliness of the home. The ice from dispenser came out black, the fridge was not cleaned before we came, the carpet in powder room had yellow stains on it and one of the upstairs bedsheets must not have been changed because there was some yellow stuff on the sheets (I have pictures). There was a used glass on windowsill of one of the bedrooms and as another reviewer noted no extra garbage bags or dishwashing detergent. Your price includes housekeeping and extra precautions, but based on above I do not think that is what you offer. I was concerned all week for my family about sleeping on all of the other beds because of what I found on the one, but thankfully I did bring my Lysol and Clorox wipes. I feel bad that I have to give you this review because truly we had a fabulous week spending time together at your beach house in spite of the cleanliness.

The property was in a great location. Right on the beach, easy to access. I was worried about the street noise but couldn’t hear any of it inside the house. The layout is great, especially for families or large groups. There is plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen was perfect and had lots of space. There were a few things that I wish had been on hand such as kitchen sponges and dishwasher detergent and garbage bags. I would recommend this property to anyone who wants great beach access with an amazing view!
