Every room had issues. Broken furniture. Broken blinds. No curtains in kids rooms. Curtains in the bedroom we stayed in were badly damaged. Stained ceilings and carpets. And it was DIRTY. Layers of dog hair EVERYWHERE. A dead cockroach by the door of the movie room. Who knows the last time the bedspreads were actually washed. We were severely disappointed in this property.

The location was good, nice views, decent access to beach, and kitchen had all the supplies we needed to cook meals. House was run down the screens were all ripped, access doors were missing locks, the upstairs fridge didn’t keep food cold so we threw a bunch of food away, and shower curtains were moldy.

The only thing we like was the view as far as the company vacasa they tried there best but the owner refuse to maintain the house alot of broken things. Such as all the door on second floor wouldn't open or were broke. None of them would lock. Ceilings had mold all over them. We found bed bugs in one of the rooms. On top of it the day we got there we spent several hours cleaning.the house was dirty. Wouldn't recommend this house to know one. Nothing against vacasa it's the owner that won't fix the place not worth the money or the increase he wants for next year.

So this experience has been crap from the beginning. To start, our vacation was canceled in April because a Vacasa agent took a random phone call and listened to someone's sob story about how their house was destroyed by a tornado. I guess they felt sorry for them so they canceled their vacation without verifying any information. Only thing is it was my vacation. A Vacasa agent told me in the merger phone numbers were mixed up and that's the only information they verified. So after about 6 phone calls and me finally losing my mind Vacasa acknowledged they were wrong for not verifying any information and they gave us back our vacation. The first 5 phone calls were vacasa employees only saying they could issue me a refund. All the while I was getting small bits of the real truth. It wasn't until I pieced it all together and figured out it was due to errors on Vacasas part then Vacasa back peddled and said they would give us our vacation back. You know the one thing non rich people work so hard for so they can give their families something fun. Then I had to deal with 3 months of stress because I didn't trust Vacasa to be competent enough to keep my vacation in good standing. Then our vacation arrives and we walk into a house that isn't clean. Sand all over the floors. Trash bags and brooms left out on the floor. Dust pan full of dirt on top of microwave. A tobacco spit bottle under the bed. That's disgusting. Rusty fishing hook hanging off mirror where a kid could hurt themselves and a container of rotting fishing bait outside the front door. So our first day of vacation was spent cleaning a house we paid $11000 for. Then as the week goes on we find numerous safety hazards and other issues. There are two refrigerators in the house which is fine if they did what they were supposed too. The fridge in the basement did its best to keep things at room temperature and the fridge in the kitchen had a missing shelf. So with multiple families worth of food we had to pile it all up on top of each other in one big open section of the working fridge. This was a fun game to play because whatever fell out you ate, you never knew what you were going to get. "That was sarcasm". The big dining table on the main level with the kitchen was so sticky your bowls, plates, cups and arms would have to be peeled off. It wasn't a stickiness from a kid's juice. It was the entire table like the varnish was bad or softened from a chemical. One of the girls had to pull her bowl so hard when it released she spilled all the milk from her cereal. Basically every screen in the house had a gaping hole in it so windows or doors couldn't be opened because the misquotes would just fly right in. The screened in porche's screens just flapped in the wind. So that wasn't an option either. The house was constantly hot and every guest complained that when they slept it felt like they were sleeping in a sauna. I thought maybe it's because we were in a mid July heat wave. But then on the last night I was washing clothes I looked over and saw there was no filter on the heat pump. So I took a look inside the unit and saw that the a/c coil was completely caked over with who knows what filth and dirt. This was concerning to find out for the fact who knows if the previous people who stayed here had Covid or not. I wouldn't call that taking proper Covid precautions. All of the sliding doors were in horrible condition and rotten out at bottom. One of the moms accidentally slammed her one year olds arm in the door. The door was so hard to close that in her struggle to close it and being focused on that she didn't realize he ran across the room and stuck his arm out as the door finally popped loose, smashing his arm. The gate from the pool that led to the beach did not lock so that had to be constantly monitored. There were rotting deck boards around the hot tub that kids' feet would go in and get hurt. This was also an issue for the adults. The outside shower floor was also rotten ...

This house was a bit of a let down. The mini theater had a 70 inch TV with no speakers hooked up. We had to plug them all in. The table was so sticky that we had to buy a table cloth to cover it in order to use it. The pool heater was broken and leaked water out leading to the pool guy adding cold water on the nicest day when we wanted to use it. There was sand in many of the pre made beds. Gross feeling to get into a sandy bed! Water dripped from many of the faucets. On days it rained the water poured through the sliding glass doors leaving soaked floors. Some of the doors didn't open or close without a lot of force. Some of the doors don't lock and you have to use a stick to lock it. The living room furniture was beyond awful and super uncomfortable. The coffee table was broken and wobbly. The oven has a broken gasket that just hangs and melts of you try to cook food. The dishwasher just ran at random and didn't really clean the dishes. The dryer ruined many clothing items due to lint bring backed up and needing a cleaning. I called about it after a bathing suit was burned and ruined. Was on hold waiting to speak to someone from Vacasa for over 43 minutes then was hung up on. Vacasa bought the company we originally rented the house from. We were told check in was 2-4pm. With Vacasa it was 6pm. Giving us several hours we needed to kill. The hot tub was supposedly cleaned prior to our arrival but was full of sand too. They ask for us to clean prior to leaving. There was only one working vacuum out of six. It's no wonder the floors were coated in sand upon our arrival as it's impossible to clean with the supplies that are left there. Many remotes had dead batteries and didn't work. Lightbulbs were out all throughout the house. There was missing door knobs for a few doors as well. Missing toilet paper holders so had to just put the toilet paper on the sink or wherever. It's also listed as ocean front but there's houses in front of it so it's not a full ocean view as you'd expect. The volleyball court could use a new net, and there was several screws sticking out of the decking. Overall, we were quite disappointed with the house. We've vacationed for over 20 years in the outer banks and this was by far the worst rental we've had and one of the most expensive as it listed many extras. Those extras are not really functional, and the house is in bad shape overall.

We loved the location of the house to the ocean and the number of bedrooms and bathrooms in the house. That said, the house needs lots of TLC. Damp and moldy spots on ceilings of lower level bedrooms, fridge and freezer were missing shelves, basketball hoop was smashed, screens flapping in the wind on the screened in porch, deck railings that were wobbly and wired.

Love location and the view Love the space that you have at the house. This was our second fall at the beach music house, I will truly miss not be able to return back next fall because price went up a lot for one week!!

Let me start by saying the location was great. Not a long walk to the beach at all. Many things about the house were great too. The theater room was a hit with all of us and the kitchen/great room is very nice for large groups. The pool area is very nice and not too deep so it was good for the young children. The hot tub was nice and close to the pool. But there were problems. The house was definitely not cleaned when we got there but the cleaning crew had been there. The air conditioning in many of the bedrooms was not functioning properly. We called and they were prompt in responding but sent a maintenance man who put in a filter but didn’t fix it. So several of the bedrooms were hot. The “duct?” in one of the downstairs bedrooms dripped constantly and the carpet was wet in the corner. It would be a wonderful place if it was maintained better.

The house was the cleanest of any rental we’ve stayed at in the OBX. The theater room was a fun bonus and a favorite spot for the kids. All the common area furniture could really use an update. The dining room table, for example, has lost its varnish and as a result has a sticky feel to it. Our puzzle and playing cards literally had to be peeled from the table. It’s clean, but has that unclean kind of feel. A couple of the shower curtain liners had certainly reached the point of needing replaced (stained/ripped). And just about every faucet or shower head dripped or leaked upon first use. Good news is, the hot tub was amazing! The pool was adequate, kind of small for the number of people this house can sleep. Location is amazing, just steps from the beach. The beds were all pretty comfortable, though one of the bunk sets is missing a ladder. The house is located just a couple lots down from a campground, so the beach was more crowded than we’re used to in the OBX (especially since we come in mid-May before the crowds). Overall, we would stay here again for the $4,200 we paid, however I did see that it looks like the prices are going WAY up in 2023!

House has many issues. Little to no maintenance done. Poor furniture not comfortable or enough of it. Wouldn’t rent this again

Property was not well maintained. Broken doors, lights, shower heads, etc.

The house was fantastic, beds were great, views were great. Only bad thing was we could not get comfortable in any of the living room furniture or lack of because it’s really outdoor furniture. I go on vacation to relax and we just couldn’t chill and watch a movie or sit around and chat because we couldn’t enjoy the furniture. The cushions always slid out and fell off. Everything else about the house was great but seriously replace that living room furniture then it would definitely be a 5Star

We made precious memories at Liquid Rush. The views and amenities were as described with the exception of the bridge construction. Driveway could use repair - lawn care was lacking. Other than that, a wonderful experience. This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.

Great house and location This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.

The home was very nice and it had everything that you would need. I loved the beach and sound side views. I also loved that it was just a walk across the street to the beach. This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.

A Finer View is in a beautiful location of Salvo. The upper deck outside furniture was amazing and provided for a lovely place to enjoy morning coffee or evening cocktails and the sunset (or incoming storm as the case may be).

Well, it was a perfect stay and all that we hoped for in a long awaited vacation. Thank you for making it one of our best times in OBX. We will return and use Outer Beaches Realty again. This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.
