About this house rental

We invite you to put your toes in the sand and a beverage in your hand...Horse Inn Around is our little oasis where we escape to relax and enjoy a secluded beach vacation. We visit the area as often as we can and love it for it's peaceful laid back, away from it all atmosphere. Enjoy your complimentary (Horse Inn Around bottle of wine) while soaking in the serene hot tub under the twinkling stars.

Almost everything is new including: hot tub, wet bar and a fully stocked kitchen. Even a high chair for the little one.

A 4WD VEHICLE IS A MUST TO GET TO THIS PROPERTY. Seriously, You're going to drive 10 miles up the beach and LOVE EVERY SECOND OF IT!

**Linens (bedding and towels) can be provided for an additional fee or bring your own. Please advise at the time of booking.

**Pets welcome for an additional fee (more fun to bring with you and definitely most cost effective than boarding).

The location is a remote, wooded lot, where the horses love to roam and take shade from the sun. While private, you are just a short two-minute drive to the beach, where you can chose your favorite beach front parking spot and relax, look for sea shell treasures, maybe spot a school of dolphins or watch the horses play. Beach parking passes included.

Note: In Carova, there is a large dune that separates houses from the beachfront, so most vacationers choose to drive to the beach regardless if 50 feet or 1100 feet from the beach. It's part of the charm of Carova -one of the only beaches left in the USA that you can still drive and park on. No need to pack and unpack all of your beech stuff, all week! Why carry the cooler when your 4 wheel drive can do it for you.

You will see horses and more stars than we could all ever count!

My family and I had a wonderful stay in North Carolina thanks to Rene and Dan. Their property is on a lovely piece of land behind the dune field. It's quiet and isolated from the loudest aspects of the beach, but a comfortable walk or drive to the surf. We enjoyed picnicking on the patio and relaxing, very much.

Words cannot describe how wonderful this beach home is… Yes, I said home! My family and I enjoyed this place so much that we stayed another night, if it wasn’t for adult responsibility we would have stayed longer. The horses came right up to the house and walked the beach plenty of times, plus we got to see dolphins almost every day. The 4x4 beach was absolutely amazing and a great place to explore. We found the most beautiful shells on our morning and night walks. We definitely plan on making this apart of our new adventures in the futures. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

We visited during the 4th of July week. Despite the business of OBX during this time, it was very relaxing out at the cottage. Everything was just as described in the listing, we have 4 small children and everyone was very happy. We arrived during a huge thunderstorm and found some water leaking in. Contacted the owners and they responded immediately. Probably the best VRBO experience we have had. Loved it! ❤️

The property is 3 or 4 'streets' back from the beach allowing for alot of peace and quiet. We were visited only once by one of the wild horses during our stay, which was fine. They roamed freely almost every day we were on the beach, especially in the evening. The top deck of the house allows for early morning sun bathing while waiting for the rest of the family to wake up and start there day. The kitchen was stocked with plenty if pots, pans, utensils and even some spices... The hosts were very respectful of our time in the house and let us know early in that someone would be stopping by with some products for the hot tub. All communications were timely and very friendly. Definitely recommend.

We looked for the horses everyday with success and ease. We watched them play on the beach. We loved that the beach wasn't too crowded. The house was beautiful. Our family had such a great time we added an extra day to our stay. The hosts were very helpful with any questions we had as well.

Our group consisted of 4 adults, 2 teenagers and a 5 year old - plenty of room in the home for 7 people! Definitely air down your tires. I can’t stress this enough. In some sections the sand loose, and others more compact. Parents - this is a great learning experience for kids too! We had our teens help with airing down & up. Make sure you do your all grocery shopping before entering the beach access, and have a cooler handy for things that need to be refrigerated. Upon arriving at the 4WD beach access, we saw a lot of beautiful horses. As a bonus, we spotted a school of dolphins too! The beach is very clean and not crowded at all. Once getting to the house, we were very pleased! The home is clean, tastefully decorated and the kitchen is stocked well with cooking / dining needs ( pots, pans, utensils, plates, etc). The horses DO in fact come to the house! They roam the neighborhood early in the morning and are on the beach for the day by mid morning. The hot tub was an added bonus and a great way to end the day, after an evening of making s’mores in the fire pit. The stars truly pop at night, too. Definitely add a constellation app to your phone. All in all, we had an amazing 5 day vacation! We only left the 4WD section twice - once to do some souvenir shopping at Wings and the other to jet ski. The rest of the time we were either at the house or the beach. When we visit the OBX again, we will definitely stay here.
