Gorgeous house on the beach, with great kitchen (3 sinks! 2 dishwashers! 2 ovens + air fryer oven, microwave etc!), large dining space and multiple common areas provided space for our 12 older adults to gather. Plenty of bedrooms all with their own bathroom for privacy. Great location for OBX. Rental company is easy to deal with. Groceries etc nearby, plus all the tourist attractions you're looking for in the area. We were too early in the season for the pool, but there's a shower & toilet at pool level also. Elevator made bringing kitchen supplies up to upper level easy.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our second year in this wonderful home. The property is well-maintained and stocked with everything you could possible EVER need. The home is clean, the rooms spacious and comfortable. Loved the addition of the new Living Room Furniture. The extended (LONG) table was perfect for meals and for playing cards. The views from this home were spectacular (sunrise from the back deck and sunset from the front) Amazing! The theater room was wonderful, although the seats are well-worn, but they were comfortable. Only recommendation would be to update the bed linens to make the brighten the bedrooms a little.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time. The location and home is awesome, however the living room furniture needs to be replaced or chair covers could be an option. The grout in some of the showers should be cleaner (some nasty looking spots) and some of the shower liners could be replaced. The pool and game room were well used and the kitchen was well stocked. Overall we enjoyed our stay and booked for next year.

Excellent beach location, we had a great time, but the “owner” needs to step up. 1.The“owners” lawn care company hit a large stone while mowing the lawn and hit one of our cars causing a dent and paint damage. We immediately called the rental company and they said they would contact the “owner”. We have heard NOTHING back from the “owner”. 2. The house is not at all what the pictures show in the listing, it is very well “used”. Duct tape on the furniture, broken chairs, child gates that are broke and useless, the washing machine was broken and not working properly, electric outlet issues, lighting in the pool area where the switches were sparking and light bulbs were out. (We called the rental company and they did send someone out to take care of the electrical issues and address a few other minor problems quickly). The decks are extremely worn, watch out for slivers and nails. The railing to the beach deck was rotted and broken. 3.The bedding was well worn and did not have mattress covers. Some of the spreads were filthy and there was sand in, and on the bedding. We wondered if the “cleaning service” had actually changed the bedding. It seems as if they sprayed the entire house with disinfectant and that was about it. There was mold in many of the showers. Simple bleach can clean that up…. 4.Be aware that the house is on the main road, understand that’s there is a LOT of traffic. We heard NO street noise but had to be careful when pulling out of the driveway.

This was the perfect house for our group of 11. Everyone had their private spaces where they could retreat if needed. We had a lovely visit!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time in this home on the beach. It rained and was cool a couple days during our week but we had fun in the game room and the heated pool and hot tub. I reported that a couple nails popped up and a board came loose on the deck and boardwalk. Also the garage door operator needed lubrication. Josh showed up within an hour and did a great job. We've booked for next year.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent the last week at Castle in the Sand which was our second time renting this house. The first was last summer. We found a few things that we think you should be made aware of. When we walked in the first day everything smelled clean and appeared clean. Once we all got into bed however, the sheets on every bed had a sour, terrible smell and all beds needed the sheets washed and put back on which we did. This was a real disappointment and took up a lot of our time. Moving on to the towels. When we went to shower the same awful sour smell was in the towels and then we had to spend time washing those as well. Since the house sleeps 14 we thought that the kitchen would provide adequate silverware. Needless to say, the silverware drawer barely has enough for 11 people for one meal. In the living room, the furniture is significantly worn. There are many holes in the fabric on all the furniture and even duct tape trying to cover holes in one of the chairs. Also again, if the house sleeps 14 they need adequate furniture in the living room to seat everyone and there definitely is not enough. They are in desperate need of outdoor furniture. Both on the top deck and out by the pool. The exhaust fan in middle red bedroom doesn’t work at all. Also, the comforter is ripped and has holes in it. The ceiling fan in the master bedroom upstairs doesn’t work and the blinds in the bathroom broke. (I reported this through the app when we arrived). For the cost of a week in this home, the quality needs to be a little better and it needs a little tlc throughout. The size of this house and beachfront is great. We just thought you should be aware of these things.
