The property was perfect. Clean, extremely spacious, beautiful views, quiet, great amenities. Would love to stay here again someday.

The good: beautiful home, plenty of space for a group of 15, felt very safe for children ages 7-9mo old, well- appointed kitchen, new washer & dryer, lovely outdoor space including a private outdoor shower. The meh: all the outdoor amenities are part of the shared community. The gazebo & basketball areas are not visible from much of the house. The location is close to the Day Use area but we couldn't find anything walkable, especially with all the gear/kids in tow. There are lots of shops, convenience stores, restaurants but most things close by 9pm. The no good: the host is generally not accommodating. We felt like we were almost an imposition and that we were not trustworthy. Check-out policies are inconvenient (all kitchen items washed, dried and returned to their places means breakfast for 15 is a challenge with a 9am check-out. We ended up handwashing everything since the dishwasher wasn't an option) & while Dawn is quick to communicate, her responses are off-putting and left a bad taste in our mouths. While we loved the home & Salvo, we would not book with Black Dog Harbor in the future.

Hopptimist was a wonderful house, comfortable, great location beautiful scenery.

Endless sunsets and a marvelous common space on the upper level has all you’ll need to have a large family hang out. Very new and clean. Large kitchen had all we needed.

One of the best properties you could find anywhere on OBX. Fantastic location with the best views of the sound and sunset, quick walk to the beach, free access to kayaks from a few steps away. The kitchen was a delight to cook in, while watching the sunset :) Very nicely equipped with decent quality pots and pans and serveware, nespresso machine and all. The 10 ft (or so?) custom dining table was to die for! All rooms as well as the common areas were tastefully decorated, very clean and enjoyable. Kids loved their built in bunkbeds. The sound system is much appreciated! We did not get to use the hottub, but totally would with a longer trip. Even the neighbors in the community were super nice and helpful. The communication throughout was also very prompt and curteous. If you see the house available, I'd say jump on the opportunity, you won't regret it!
