Incredibly disappointed! We arrived to find the property is directly on the street, surrounding structures in poor condition and included a single wide trailer, there were no sidewalks and NO access to the beach (unless you get in your car, drive to the beach and try to find public parking). Property is Pine Knoll Shores. I’m still waiting to hear back from Evolve management and have given up communication efforts with the property manager. When we arrived there were at least 15 large black flies in the kitchen/porch entryway. The decor in the rental was very nice. We immediately notified the property manager and the 3rd party management that we would not be staying as the property wasn’t as advertised and we planned a 4 night stay with our adult children from various states at the beach, this was such a disappointment!! Communication (arguing/voices raised) with the property manager (Brandon) was unprofessional and unhelpful. We left within 30 mins and moved to another location.

Rented for the weekend. Walkable to local restaurants and shops. Minor issues with internet because of a storm, but manager came out within 20 min to get it fixed. Definitely recommend!

We had a wonderful time at "The Cozy Crab Shack". The place was clean and conveniently located near anything we needed. The beach was very close by and the accommodations were comfortable. We would definitely stay there again!

The property was well maintained and in a nice quiet location. Close to beach access and the NC Aquarium. Very enjoyable stay!

All in all it was pretty good. Could have been brought up a few notches by having some attention to quality and comfort. The bath towels were thin and small. For a family of 9 staying there and we could have had 10, they were minimal and we went out and bought towels to use. The garbages were full when we arrived and not due to be emptied for a few days. The property manager had it taken care of shortly after we alerted them to the problem. We also were challenged with the amount of toilet passed that was left for us to use, we had three bathrooms and five rolls of toilet paper. There also were not enough bowls for a family our size so we bought some bowls to use. The yard was a good size but we had to keep our dog on a leash the whole time. Beach access is a little bit of a walk and has a lot of stairs but overall beautiful. Nice to walk down to the Crabshack for dinner and then to Scoops for icecream dessert. Would we stay again? Probably not. We had family that rented a few other houses in the same area that were bigger and better furnished (full size washer and dryers for example) for the same price and even less expensive. We might come back and use this house if the cost was half the price, maybe a different season.

It was great!

The Cozy Crab Shack was perfect....comfy & cozy. We each had our own bedroom and bathroom, making morning work prep and evening unwind quick and ease. Thanks Todd for staying in touch from pre check-in to post check-out. See you next week : )

Even though it rained our whole trip it was a nice place and the owner was accommodating and there to help when needed.

thanks for the great stay!
