The house has fantastic views with quick and easy access to the beach. However, the house has fallen into significant disrepair and is in dire need of basic maintenance. It doesn't appear that the air filter has been changed since last year and the dryer vent needs cleaned. There is plant overgrowth all around the house and is starting to take over the western side stairs. Instead of being wired three -way, the exterior lights are wired master -slave between inside switches and gray switches on the ground level making it difficult to figure out turning on the exterior lights. The deck is spongy in multiple locations, decking nails are popped up, and railing spindles are detached, all creating significant safety hazards. With the sand dune taking over the eastern side stairs, it is virtually impossible not to bring sand in the house. And while it is commendable that Vacasa wants renters to vacuum before they leave, this task requires a vacuum that is actually capable of cleaning the carpets and floors given the inability to keep sand out. The issue shower is the only shower with reasonable water pressure but the shower is surrounded by sand meaning you'll bring in sand whether you're going to the beach or showering outside. Inside, everything is very dated and showing significant wear. Drywall is peeling from the ceiling, screws are popping through drywall and there are drywall cracks around the shower surrounds. Considering the summer rental rate for this home, there is very little value to renting this home considering the condition it is in.

The location can’t be beat! We enjoyed sitting on the deck listening to the waves when we were not on the beach. Downside was the maintenance of the home. Kitchen and bathroom cabinets were all in disrepair. One of the kitchen drawers had fallen in on the lower one. I saw this mentioned in a review several months ago and it still had not been addressed. No screens on the door walls and most of the windows. Floors and windows were not washed when we arrived. We enjoyed our stay but were surprised that it was more run down than we expected. The furnishings are great and comfortable. We did not use the hot tub so I cannot comment on that feature.

Such a great experience .....falling asleep and waking to waves crashing was wonderful. Very comfy house, oceanfront can't beat it!

We loved everything about this place from the hot tub to everything you could possibly need and more for kitchen utensils. The waves crashing was amazing to fall asleep to and the dolphins swimming by daily were a pleasant sight to see. Would definitely return

I hate public reviews, but I sent an email to vacasa and no one replied. Also, this is not Deane T it is his daughter, Brenda. The first thing I noticed was the urine stains on the carpets. The second thing I realized was that the satellite was not functioning. Made for a long week as my father is elderly and enjoys tv. I realized I could not fix it as the pole sustaining the satellite was broken in two and the dish was laying in the sand. I called dish after trying to sustain the dish wiyh what I had available, but they were no help bc I did not have the phone number to the account. When I called vacasa, I was ASSURED that a ticket would be put in and that HOPEFULLY they would get someone there that day...orrrr...maybe the next. No one. All week, no one. I know this because there were no additional footprints in the driveway, nor were there any additional tire tracks. So, my 87 year old father spent a lot of time sleeping when he wasn't watching the ocean or the DVDs I'd brought along. Usually, he is entertained with a football game or with tcm. I am very disappointed that vacasa couldn't even call me back to say they'd written this off as not a priority. I understand that it was Thanksgiving week and the place was very busy, but honestly? Not even a phone call? Friday night before our departure, I was scrolling through some of the other online reviews and stumble upon something ridiculous. 300 fee to have a hot tub sit there and not be used? At the end of the season? No one maintained it during the week, again...no footprints or tire tracks other than ours . It has never been used by us. Why are we paying the exhorberent 300 fee? Again, this is nothing about the house. We love it there. It is perfect for my father and I. There are other things I noticed about the home, but it is clearly abuse from disrespective tenants. If you are bringing dogs, bring cleaning solution with you...or vacasa should have the carpets cleaned from time to time and I'm sure that could be scheduled if a person cleaning the house communicates that to vacasa. Someone with a rug scrubber could clean that in the time from departure at 10am and check in at 5pm. Even spot-cleaned in that he is easily managed. When I tried to use the vacuum cleaner to tidy up before leaving, I noticed that it was very hard to push, as it is sruck on bare floors. That explains why when I dropped a slice of bread on the carpeting, there was white hair all over it. I get it that you might be short staffed as it seems the whole country is...but a little communication goes a very long way. We are still booked for Thanksgiving next year, we love this little house. Please. Vacasa...DO something.

Absolutely gorgeous beachfront!!! House was perfect for our friends getaway!

This house has a ton of aspects to recommend it! The location is fantastic. The kitchen is well stocked and a very good size. There are basic amenities provided to get you started (tp, soap, dish detergent). There are plenty of books and games available. The beds are comfy, and there’s plenty of space for about 10 people. My biggest complaints would be related to house maintenance. The air filter had clearly not been changed in a LONG time, and it seems likely that the dryer vent exhaust hasn’t been cleaned out in quite a while, either. These things impacted our stay only minimally. So, overall, the house was excellent for our weeklong vacation!

We've been coming to OBX for quite a while and this house has to be the nicest place We've stayed in so far. We wish we could stay there again, but the new realtor will only allow 2 dogs and we have 3.

The location of this home can’t be beat- just a few steps over the dune, and you are right there on the beach. The view from the deck is outstanding! The home is comfortable, and love the three king beds. All that said, the home has a lot of wear and tear and also wasn’t super pleased with the cleaning the home had before we got there. Found the local Vacasa team helpful only after I called.

Captians Quaters is a pet friendly beautifully decorated in beach theme home right on the ocean front. Amazing views from the hot tub and deck with tall adorondack chairs. We booked our week for next year beforeee left!! This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.

We LOVED being so close to the beach and ocean! The views from the deck were AMAZING 😊❤️

Located behind a protective dune, the house's wrap-around porch offers sweeping views of the ocean and the coastal sky. The common area rooms are quite spacious, as are the three bedrooms with the queen beds. The bunkbed room is smaller but perfect for the youngsters. The kitchen is well-equipped but it would have been nice to have staples like coffee filters, salt/pepper(!), and a few surface cleaning supplies provided. The house is generally in good shape, but there are no window screens and the blinds were a wreck although we didn't have them down much! The week we were there the hot-tub cover was missing so we contacted the local team to let them know and they were super helpful and friendly. We will definitely return!!!!

The location of the home is perfect, down 10 stairs and over a sand dune to the water! We loved the home. It’s layout is great, the beds were very comfortable and the deck view is the best! My only complaint is the shower heads, they need replaced badly. The previous guests had issues with the hot tub cover and it had not been replaced yet but the hot tub was still usable. The house was clean on our arrival we enjoyed our stay very much.

The location is ideal, house is well used. The toilet in the bathroom lifts off the floor on one side, Refrigerator went out and continues to beep with the door shut. We’ll stocked kitchen. Blinds are all broken. With the price hike next year (all new fee schedules) not worth the money price nearly doubled for the same week next year.

This house was right on the beach and it was a walk over the dune right on the beach. The rooms were spacious all decorated beautifully. The hot tub was the best…ocean view while enjoying drinks in the hot tub. High top chairs made the deck a great spot to sit and enjoy views of the ocean. This house was clean, beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. They allow dogs in this house and the large deck had gates on either side keeping the dogs on the deck which was great! Would stay here again!

The home was clean, wonderfully stocked with kitchen equipment. Perfectly located on the beach. The rooms were large, the beds were comfortable. We will definitely be booking again.

Great property and very close to beach access and local businesses. Wonderful vacation home! This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.

This house has everything our family needed. Excellent living room area for all of us to gather. We love to sit on the top deck and enjoy the views. One of my favorite things to do was to eat my dinner out on the deck. Very well made furniture out on the decks.

Loved the dawn deshell. Awesome view of the beach and the sound side This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.

This home is in a great location. The driveway underneath the house is perfect for corn hole or just hanging out in the shade. The outdoor shower is awesome! This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.
