We enjoyed our stay at SOS in Corolla, Ocean Sands. It is a perfect distance to the beach. The house is well decorated and the kitchen is stocked.

We were very pleased with this property. We finally figured out the best bedroom/bathroom assignments and everyone was happy. The kitchen was well-stocked with equipment. 2 refrigerators was excellent as we were eating in for all meals and there were 14 of us.

This was my family's second time staying here, we loved the access to the beach, the number of bedrooms, and overall relaxing time that Corolla provides.

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Shades of Summer! We had 12 people including 3 children and everyone had plenty of space. When we arrived the house was clean and had all the necessities of home. Two dishwashers was so so great! Everyone loved their bedroom spaces and felt well rested. The tvs in each room were a hit for the little ones as well. There was plenty of beach equipment to use and an outdoor shower for rinsing off. The location is fantastic with close proximity to the beach and across the highway from a Starbucks, Duck Donuts, and Island Smoothie! Thank you for sharing your home with us and we look forward to booking again in the future!

We had a wonderful stay. The house was very clean, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The walk to the beach was very easy. Communications with the property owners was great. We had no complaints, and this was definitely one of the best houses that we have rented.

Our time at Shades of Summer was perfect from start to finish. The house was beautifully decorated, clean and had more than enough space for our clan of 12. We loved the floor plan and ALL the bathrooms. Our families fit nicely in the house and had a great time. The kitchen was stocked nicely with plenty of pots and plans as well as storage containers for leftovers. The huge dining room set was perfect for our gang too. We noticed that because of humidity, sometimes the doors would not close all the way and we had to pull them shut and wait for the lock to engage. It’s wasn’t a big deal, just an observation. We enjoyed the Corolla area and the beauty of the beach. We ate out a few nights and enjoyed Bernie Brothers and Cravings. Duck Donuts and Harris Teeter were right across the street so that was a few added bonuses. We’d definitely recommend Todd and Joanna and their home to anyone looking to visit the Corolla area. Joanna was always prompt and extremely pleasant and helpful when I had questions.

House is in good condition. A few houses from the beach which was very convenient with a bunch of kids and beach toys, umbrellas, chairs, etc. The grocery store, ice cream shop and Duck Donuts right across the street. Walking/bike bath right around the corner. There is a nice view off of the back deck. We enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend Bob's Wild Horse tour. My only suggestion to the owner would be to update some of the old pans and add some plastic cups for kids in the cabinets. Communication was great and all of the directions for the house were well organized and easy to follow. If we go back to Corolla we would consider renting again.

Really enjoyed this house. Clean, updated and comfortable. Two dishwashers is a great bonus! Great communication from owner. Would stay again.
