VRBO should not allow this property to be rented on their platform nor should it be marketed for families with kids and/or pets. The owner claims the previous month’s weather prevented outside maintenance. The issues with the patio and the walkway on the side of the house are clearly more than a month old - hazardous broken/uneven slate patio, exposed nails on walkways and on piles of old wood that have clearly been there for years, walkway lights falling off the deck, exposed cords to trip on, non-code compliant steps and landings - The outside has been neglected for years and it is impossible to avoid since it is the path to the beach. A dated but charming beach house is what we hoped for on the inside but it is not much better with black mold coming out of the ceiling air vents throughout the house. While we were there it rained and 2 of the 5 bedroom ceilings leaked, significantly. The owner claimed it was odd because it wasn’t raining that hard at the time. It’s clear to see that the ceilings just keep getting repatched, but the root of the issue is not being addressed. I requested the owner come to the property or send a representative so I could show my concerns but they did not. The owner prorated a refund of 2 days when we left the property on Thursday because of the leaks. VRBO needs to do quality control on what is being offered on their platform. My recommendation is to do your research before making a decision to stay at this or any of the owners properties

The property is located right on the beach and dolphins swam by each day. However, the property needs attention. We had 2 ceilings with leaks (known because trash cans were placed underneath when we arrived), lots of ants inside & out, light switches had to be wiped down, bed skirts were torn, etc. It could be a great

The location was perfect-close to the boardwalk but with a relatively private beach. The house itself needs significant renovation and maintenance. The gate going to the beach fell off the cement wall. The middle bedroom on the second floor had a serious leak which puddled on the floor. Drawers and stair handrails were loose and the deck railing was loose as well. The stove was difficult to light. The tiles in the master bathroom were coming up. The walkway to the beach was wavy and splintered. There were many ants in the kitchen and roaches too. There was a heavy mold smell on the first floor.

This property isn't perfect and has some cosmetic flaws but overal it is a lovely house with an AMAZING view and access to the beach. The beach had a lifeguard right out front. There is no crowd and a ton of surfers to watch in the area. The house was clean. No sheets or linens are provided so be sure to arrange that ahead of time or bring them. Croatan is really family-oriented so you need to drive to any bars or restaurants, but that's what we were looking for. Overall amazing stay in a lovely home. We'd stay again for sure.

I will start with the good points about this house. It is in a convenient location, has a great view of the ocean, and the A/C, Wi-Fi and appliances worked. Cleanliness - it was terrible: cobwebs hanging from the ceiling; mold growing on a glass top table; the entire ground floor level smelled like mold and mildew; we had to wipe down all the stair handrails as they were sticky and dirty; the 2 grills were rusted, greasy, disgusting and unusable. Equipment - furniture was damaged with tape repairs; glass top dining table was not attached to the base; kitchen glasses were chipped and dangerous to use; outdoor toys were broken and rusty; Teflon coating on pots and pans was gone; other kitchen equipment was cheap and old; the ceiling fan in the entryway is rusted and makes terrible noises when you turn it on. Safety - the walkway to the beach is overgrown and had warped boards with rusty nails sticking out; broken and damaged pavers on the back patio; holes in the walls and ceilings in multiple locations; stair hand rail repaired with duct tape; toilet paper holder missing; garage almost filled with old carpets, broken furniture and unusable equipment. This house is especially dangerous for children. We have pictures to back this all up.

We visited for a girls’ trip (me, my 80 year old mom, and 28 year old daughter) and had a wonderful time! My mom loved the elevator and enjoyed watching the ocean from the deck on the third floor. The house is beautiful, clean, and has great views of the ocean! It is only a short walk to the beach using the home’s personal walkway. The beach is very private since it is disconnected from the boardwalk. We also loved that we were able to bring our pets! Lori is a great and communicative host. We had the best time and would definitely come again!
