We were extremely happy with this home. Very clean and well kept. There have been many upgrades to the house so different than pictures show. decks were very nice, loved sitting out watching dolphins many mornings. Everything we needed was there well stocked. proximity to beach couldn't be any better. We will definitely rent this house again.

The house was clean and comfortable! We had no real complaints about anything and did not need to contact anyone for the duration of our stay. The furnishings and carpeting was clean and well maintained. The master bed was REALLY comfy!! Nice hot tub and the easy access to the beach was wonderful. All and all it was a great place to stay and we would stay again!
One maintenance issue that should be addressed is the upstairs bathroom door. It doesn't close unless you slam it really hard, and then is very hard to open it again. That should be fixed. We also noticed that the wall that the moose is hanging on is quite bowed so the owners might want to check it out just in case it's structural.
Our family (3 kids 2 adults) had a lovely time and the home helped to make it stress free. Thank you!! Definitely recommend this private beach house!

We had a wonderfully relaxing vacation in this dog friendly, beach front, with 2 decks home. The kitchen was well stocked, the bathrooms were updated and there was a lot of room. We enjoyed our stay!

Great home to enjoy the Outer Banks! Dog friendly and was super clean on arrival. An older but well kept home…had everything we needed, and we do mostly cook during our week. Super location with deck to enjoy morning coffee and sun.

So happy to have been in an oceanfront home as we were stuck in the great nor'easter of May 2022! Super place for my husband, myself, and our dog. Very clean on arrival and no problems to report (oh! Other than need a new can opener!) I have a terrible back and appreciated the comfortable bed. We never even used the downstairs so can't remark on it except it does have its own sitting room in addition to the bedrooms. Ice maker in fridge doesn't work but has plenty of ice cube trays. Great location!!!! Booked for next spring.

My family and I stayed at Almost Home May 29-June 5. During that time a window in one of the bedrooms leaked badly. The mattress on one of the twin beds was very wet on one corner and the bedding was soaked as well. Fortunately I had the good sense to use one of the fans in the house to try to dry out the window and wall as well as put containers in the window to catch more water that continued to leak. I also moved the wet twin bed away from the wall and angled it towards the fan. After a long delay, maintenance did come and put plastic over the window and measured the moisture in the bed and room. The mattress was ok but there was dampness still in the wall. We did receive a new mattress cover and sheets. The person that brought the new sheets did not take the wet sheets and suggested I bag them (which I did). No one collected the wet sheets and mattress cover. Another maintenance person came the next day but did not fix the window. When it rained again, water pooled in the bottom of the plastic that was placed over the window. Again, I had the good sense to find a container, drain the water in the plastic and place the container in the window and continue to run the fan. I resealed the plastic. That room was not useable for our vacation!

We left very disappointed after finding out this house won't be rented out any more after this year. We have been coming here for years. Finding a pet friendly house ocean front for 2023 will be a challenge.

Location, location, location!!! Can't get much closer to the beach!! House needs some repairs and updating. The deck is in desperate need of being replaced(dangerous in some spots), and my daughter suggests removing the moose head!! We all enjoyed the beautiful sunrises from the deck and lounging in the hot tub!! You can't beat the view!!

We loved Almost Home. The bottom deck needs some repairs that is why i didn't say excellent.But the views and beach access are amazing!!! Also enjoyed the hot tub. We can't wait to come back.

This was our second time staying at Almost Home in 2 years. We enjoyed it, like the improvements being made. The only concern is the ants in kitchen that future renters may have. We live in NC so we understand ants can be a problem even if it was a newer cottage. It feels comfy like home.

Everything was good except the ceiling in my bedroom leaked . No one came to fix it And the rotted deck boards were a safety hazard especially for elderly and young children But all in all it was very nice 👍 location location location 😁🎣😎

We never found the key for the washer dryer. There were ants in the kitchen and the soap holder in the upstairs bathroom is attached with tape.

Amazing location with a hot tub pretty much on the beach! Great layout , lots of space. Cleanliness was the only issue we had. LOTS of ants in the kitchen other than that you can't beat the price and location!

During our stay we were kicked off the beach for a major construction project that the owner knew about but did not inform us of. We were blocked off from the beach and the work went on 24 hours a day, with heavy machinery right outside the house, constant alarms, lights and shaking of the house keeping us up.
It was not good faith to not notify us of this major project beforehand. Further, the owner couldn't be bothered to get back to us or the real estate agent when I reached out. I would strongly recommend staying elsewhere.

We had a great time with our family, our kids friends, and a friend and her child. Our family included our 12 year old fur baby and she enjoyed walks on the beach and all the new smells and neighborhood doggies. We loved the views and living space in the house and especially loved the hot tub/deck area.

LOCATION is everything!
This house is literally steps away from the beach with views that are hard to match. The house is in need of some TLC, but if you don’t mind some mild inconveniences associated with an older home (and the property maintenance company is responsive and professional), then this is a good place for your next vacation.

Great location, good house, a little dated
Great location right on the beach, you have to climb up a pretty big sand bank which might be difficult for people with mobility issues. Close to grocery, good restaurants, but at driving distance, would not recommend bring bikes. Loooong driveway for kids to play on. Good open floor plan for families, big couch, plenty of space for sleeping. The main problems were the couch smelled like B.O., and the deck is old with some nails popping out that cut one of the kid's feet. The outside shower is not great, so bring your own garden hose and sprayer. Overall good, pretty much what you expect for the price.

Spring break
Our family had a wonderful time, nice location. The only concern we had was the back deck, (it had a loose board and some nails sticking up) but it seems that it is being fixed a little at a time. Wonderful view from top deck. Seen dolphins the first day.

Great location. Loved watching the sunrise from the top deck. Very accommodating .
We enjoyed our stay. The house needs work along with the lower deck. The air conditioner unit vents had moisture on them. The maintenance people did come to adjust the stove when asked
All in all it was not a bad house.

Awesome place and amazing views
We had an awesome vacation staying here! This house was the closest to the ocean in our proximity (literally steps away) which made for amazing views, easy travel back and forth and an ability for the teens to come and go without any concerns! The upstairs kitchen, dining, living room and deck was so spacious and allowed for quality family time with plenty of room and once again AMAZING views! Would highly recommend anyone to use this property!!!

Almost Home
Lots of urine smell. Lower level toilet didn’t flush well. Shims were shoved under the toilet. Upper level tub backed up as did the kitchen sink. Lots of dog hair on the floor. Lower level bedroom window leaked when it rained. Needs an update. Great location but costly for what we got.

The property was clean and proximity to the beach was great! Unfortunately, the ice maker in the fridge didn't work. Plenty of cabinets but there wasn't much room for storing groceries, etc. Beds were very comfy. Had 1 problem with the TV in the upper level bedroom; called maintenance and they fixed it within 24 hours. It was nice to have a gas grill that worked!

Nags Head Stay
Almost Home was a perfect property for our Outer Banks vacation. The beachfront location with private beach access was very convenient. The house had plenty of space and was clean. We loved the hot tub and the second level deck.

Nice getaway
Very pleased with the home. Clean and well kept considering its age. Some welcome updates have been made, like the kitchen appliances. Other areas of the home show age, but have been cared for. We will definitely be coming back.

nice week at the beach
Four of us were very comfortable in the house. There has been some recent work on the top level and it looks like there is some more work planned to refresh the lower level deck. The kitchen is fairly well stocked (we cooked meals in all week) and has new countertops and the upper balcony has just been redone and is a great place to enjoy breakfast and gaze at the ocean in the morning. It was very convenient to just be able to walk out on the beach in a few steps. We would return to stay again.

Lovely home with a perfect ocean view and access. We were looking for the perfect social distancing vacation - walks on the beach and ease of access for delivery. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook, but delivery options were abundant. Perfect location for day trips to lighthouses south of Nags Head. Not a criticism, but be prepared for a really long driveway. Great for basketball, skateboarding, and outdoor games.

Beautiful ocean views from the kitchen and dining room
Enjoyed the proximity to what turned out to be a near private beach. The house and all that it contains appears old and tired but is adequate for a week's stay.
