Great house for families of 10. Location and pool were A++!! We were planning next year the day we left.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Not the best place I've stayed but comfortable and good amenities. To have 5 bedrooms, a private pool and a hot tub, the price was good. We had a couple of issues that were resolved quickly for Memorial Day weekend, and extended the stay an extra day. A couple of reviewers noted that there wasn't a gas grill so I brough charcoal, but there is a gas grill there now. Also renters should be aware that the bunk bedroom (1 of 4 bedrooms on the middle level) does not have access to a full bathroom without going into another bedroom's private bathroom. I was aware of this before I got there because another reviewer mentioned it. It worked out fine because I planned for it, but it could be an issue for some. I do think the house could use a visit from the owner to get some things into shape.

We had a nice stay at Porch Song. The pool was refreshing. The kitchen was well stocked but was missing a large frying pan, otherwise there was everything you could need to cook. The comforters could use a good washing and the carpet was well worn. The furniture was very nice in the living room and on the deck. There were plenty of games to play and books to read. It was located within 5 minutes walk to the beach. We had a wonderful time. There was no foosball table as shown on the pictures.

We had a great family vacation at Porch Song. The house was clean. The pool was wonderful. It was only a short walk to the beach. The outdoor shower was great when coming back from the beach. There are great restaurants and shopping a short drive away. There was a full sized barbecue grill. The kitchen has all the basic supplies we needed. The bedrooms were all a good size with a TV and plenty of places to put your stuff. Lots of board games, seating and a nice size TV in the living room. The outdoor spaces were also nice with plenty of seating and tables. We also enjoyed the hot tub. Wish the linens were included. If you don’t purchase the linen package you need sheet sets with pillow cases. They provide comforters. The HVAC broke before our trip so there was no AC on the bottom floor. The realty company informed us that it could not be repaired until after our trip ended. They were kind enough to install air conditioners in 3 bedrooms prior to our trip. One was extremely loud but the ceiling fans worked well. The top floor was air conditioned.

We loved that the kids could stay on one level and our parents could stay on the upper level. The hot tub was such a wonderful bonus as our weather did not permit us to use the pool.

The property was perfectly located close to the beach, restaurants, activities and shopping. Beautiful spacious home! Our family enjoyed the clean pool and nice hot tub! The management company could not have been more accommodating!

We were a party of 10 ppl including kids and this house was perfect in size for us. Plenty of space without feeling like you were on top of each other. It was bright and nice furniture . The proximity to the beach was great. It was an easy walk no hills or busy streets which was great for kids. The house offered a beach wheel barrel which came in handy for the many things we need to take to beach. However, we were very disappointed in how dirty the house was. It felt like a cleaning service never cleaned. Their were chocolate stains on walls, popcorn left in bed, wrappers on floor, dirty bath mats and dirt on floors. And their were multiple broken blinds and a towel bar was very loose and missing remote controls. We did reach out to the management company and they offered to send a cleaning service but we declined as we had already begun to disinfect everything and clean the whole house. I was thankful that they responded as soon as they received my email and called me. They were very nice and apologetic. The items in the kitchen were worn and old and very rusty so if you were looking to cook you may wanna buy disposable cookware. The pool was great size and clean and they had Pool toys. we enjoyed it as well as the outdoor shower. Overall we had a good vacation we loved the OBX and the location of house was perfect. Would we stay again? I am not sure. The house itself was good and perfect size and all but the cleanliness is an issue and from the looks of the amount of dust we cleaned up this was not an isolated incident. I think if this house improved the cleaning this house would have been 5 stars. We do thank the management company for reaching out and trying to remedy the problem. Helpful tips: When you go to lock or unlock the door pull it towards you then enter your code otherwise the lock won’t latch. Also I would recommend wearing flip flops on the deck to avoid splinters.
