Brand New Construction - 525' to the Beach Access
We had the most amazing stay! Rebecca was extremely communicative and made sure we knew everything we needed to! The place looked exactly as pictures and was very clean. It was a short walk to the beach (about 5 minutes) and the private pool was so nice to come back to! We would absolutely stay at one of Rebecca’s houses again!

Curriduck Sunset Waterfront(Duck)
This is a great find! The home was well stocked, cared for and comfortable for our group. Cheri was fantastic with communications as we had a small power outage one day. Her heads up gave us all peace of mind that we had nothing to worry about. Fantastic sunsets

Morris Oasis,Pool, Hot Tub,Sound access, Fast Wifi
We could not have enjoyed our stay any more than we did. The house was well stocked and clean. Pool and hot tub were clean and well maintained as well. The neighborhood is quiet and within a short distance to many local attractions and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again if we find ourselves back in the area. Thank you!!

Calypso's Cove - Dog Friendly, Fenced Yard
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was exactly what we needed!

Dog friendly-Perfect central location-newly built
My dog and I spent a relaxing week at Lidia's place. The house was clean and comfortable, and we had everything we needed. I particularly enjoyed sitting on the swing in the fenced-in backyard while my dog lounged in the sun. Looking forward to a return trip!

Milk 'N' Honey at the 4X4 Carova Beach
Absolutely loved the home and the whole experience! Our only issue was in our arrival and not being aware that high tide would impact when you should attempt getting to the house. More information regarding the tide schedule and if the roads within the houses are accessible would be very helpful. Recommendation to stop at the grocery store before you each the beach access road and what types of things are not supplied at the house would be good, too. Overall we were so very pleased with our stay and Misty was great when we needed her. I would absolutely recommend this house to my friends and family and would love to visit again!

Waterfront with Private Dock
My family and and I had a very nice time staying at their house. The host is very accommodating. The house is very nice and in a good location. Will definitely try to book again.

Sunset Cottage on the Pamlico Sound.
Attention to detail in this property. Great location. Beautiful sound front property with wonderful outdoor amenities. My husband and I kayaked in the sound behind the house and met the oyster farmer that is close by. The local restaurants are great and we were able to ride our bike to them. The decor was very cute. Outside shower was convenient.

Better at the Bay
We loved our stay at Karen’s place. The apartment is very comfortable, and the views are spectacular. I wish we had more time to enjoy the offerings. We hope to come back again!

“ The corner of beach and dreams “
We had our honeymoon here and loved it!

Stylish Waterfront/Marina Condo
Really enjoyed the condo it was a perfect base camp for a variety of activities in the OBX. There was a well stocked kitchen which was great as we did a lot of home meals. The condo was nicely decorated, and the beds were super comfy! James was easy to contact and communicated back quickly if asked a question. Was a great stay.

No Ordinary Sunrise - Dog Friendly & Waterfront
We loved No Ordinary Sunrise! Thomas was a great host, and we would definitely return to this beautiful home again. It was spotless and the location is great for anyone looking to adventure around the Outer Banks.

Soundside Dreaming
Rob is a great, responsive host. Thanks, Rob!

Beautiful Waterfront Downtown Studio Apt. Unit 3
This was our 2nd time staying in the upstairs big studio unit. WE love this place as we are a USCG family and our family/grandkids are there in E-City. Great view, right on the bay, the neighborhood is peaceful and quiet. Alice is the best, she answers quickly and is flexible about arrival times which helps when driving from Raliegh to E-City. It is a joy to stay there. We fish so love what she has done with her big boathouse on the property where you can relax out of the weather or sun and fish, socialize, watch the bay, etc. You have everything you need in there for a wonderful stay. All amenities! Sunrises and sunsets are amazing!!!!! thanks again Alice for a great visit.

Coastal Paradise OBX LLC
We had a great stay, and highly recommend this space! Vjollca was exceptionally responsive and helpful. It was a great perk to be able to park under cover and walk right into the unit. It’s a cozy little space perfect for two!
Lake access cottage rentals

Last minute April Opening !
We had a lovely stay at The Grey Pearl. Perfect location-walk to restaurants, etc. We packed bikes and never took the car out once. I really love a dog friendly house!

Escape to Avalon | Exquisite Outer Banks Casita
Maria’s cozy little house was very comfortable, and we especially enjoyed the backyard and her beautiful paintings. The beach is nearby, though it’s best to drive due to a busy intersection. The Wright Brothers’ Museum is just a short drive away, and Maria was incredibly helpful in recommending places to visit.

Soundfront Cottage, Dock & Beautiful Sunset View
My wife and I stayed with our two kids and my parents (and their dog) and had a great time! The house is cozy but comfortable for 6, with a good amount of living space including a very nice sunroom. Amy was friendly and helpful in our communications and proactive at checking how things were going, and helped ensure we had a nice stay the whole time. Staying on the sound was beautiful, especially the sunsets. The house is right on a great multiuse path which is perfect for walking or biking to the nearby coffee shop or for exercise. Grocery stores and restaurants are close too, as are destinations like Jockey's Ridge and the Wright Brothers memorial. Two little things that made me happy were walking past the Muscadine vine in the front yard, and the color of the mailbox: a light blue which made it unique and easy to find when driving down an unfamiliar street. If your group is the right size for it, Safe and Sound is a great place to stay, and Amy is an excellent host!

Charming OBX Soundfront Home with Hot Tub & Kayaks
Another fantastic Spring Break at the Best Box! The nicest, cleanest, most relaxing rental we’ve ever found. Didn’t think the property could be any better than it was last year, but the owners have managed to make many creative and thoughtful upgrades. Enjoyed days at the beach, days on the sound, chartered a boat for fishing, ate tons of seafood, and saw the best sunsets right from the deck. Literally took advantage of everything in this house - from crabbing to fishing to baggo to flying kites to playing board games to darts and foosball. Oh and kayaking, relaxing in the hammock, and tubing, too.

Turtle Haven Ocean Views! Large Deck + Bikes&Grill
We enjoyed our stay and found the home well equipped. The turtles are fun to watch. This is a very unique home and a short walk to the beach. We would stay there again!

An Authentic Outer Banks Cottage Experience | SUPs
This cottage was perfect for our family's spring break trip. It was peaceful, quiet, and a quick walk to the beach! The cottage itself was wonderful--clean, decorated wonderfully, and surprisingly spacious!

Serene Lake Front-Pool Access-Pet Friendly
Great house and great host. Had to make a last second change from a previous house we were staying in and Michelle was able to fit us in the night we asked and even before our allotted time. Made sure we had everything we needed and was always responsive. Very appreciative for her and her flexibility. Home was clean and had everything we needed. Would recommend to stay here.

OBX Tucked Away-1 level-Sound front-Beach 1 mile
We totally understand and agree with Tanya being listed as a Super Host with 5+Stars! From making the reservation until checkout, Tanya made certain that we had absolutely everything we could possibly need for our stay, from extra toiletries, beach towels, sunscreen and even a sewing kit! She is responsive to messages, provides tips and suggestions on trips, places to visit and local restaurants! The house is pristine yet feels like home! We will definitely be making many more trips and this will be our “ home away from home!”
