Wonderful stay
We had a great time staying here for a wedding in OBX. The house was very well stocked with things we needed, and even included a pack and play for our new baby. We enjoyed the hot tub and spending time on the deck. Would definitely book again. The owners were very kind and responsive when booking. Thanks for everything!

House was not the cleanest. Floors were sticky. Dish washer had a piece that seemed to be melted so we would not use. Had a toilet spring a leak from the handle so we’re without that for two of the days (but owner was very quick t respond)Should have checked beach areas as there was not much actual beach in this area due to storms and eroding

Great vacation!
We so enjoyed our stay here! Property was clean, comfortable and great location! So many extra were left such as toilet paper, garbage bags, soaps, laundry detergent, etc. Close to restaurants and grocery stores, but far enough away that the beaches were not crowded. We even were able to access the property earlier than expected. Nelene was great to deal with. Would definately rent again!

Great location for families
We stayed at the house during the 2023 winter holidays (December 23-30) and had a blast. The house was spacious, clean, well-organized, and generally well stocked. Guests included my spouse and me, our kids (ages 12), and two sets of in-laws. Things we loved about the property: - Spacious living room with plenty of seating and great ocean views. - Separate sunroom for reading or getting some space from family. - Highly functional kitchen with recently upgraded counters and appliances. - Ideal location (5 minute walk to the beach, less than one block from Cape Hatteras National Seashore, 10 minutes to grocery store and other shops). - Precise climate control. No problems with heat or air. - Plenty of towels and sheets provided as promised. - Well stocked with dish soap, hand soap, dishwasher detergent, paper towels, and started toilet paper. A few minor areas for improvement; - Property manager had our check-in date incorrect. House was ready, but we had to call to obtain the access code. - A few kitchen items were broken or non-functional (e.g., coffee carafe had crack in the bottom, kitchen scissors were very dull). - Check-out instructions posted on the fridge were slightly outdated and didn't match digital instructions. Overall, we had a terrific stay and would definitely reserve this property again if visiting the Outer Banks!

House was clean and location was great. We went in early October and weather was perfect. The house is close enough to restaurants and shopping but far enough away from those things to feel quiet and relaxing. Would stay again if we come back to OBX!

Beautiful views, spacious and everything you need
The layout of this property is perfect for family or friends vacation. Spacious open common areas as well as a beautiful sunroom for reading, working or just enjoying the peace. Beautiful views from the wrap around deck. A great place for morning coffee, evening cocktails and watching the sunrise. Kitchen is fully equipped and we love to cook. They had everything we needed and then some. Beds are comfortable and everyone slept well. Rules of the house were outlined clearly and property management checked in with me at the beginning and end of our trip. Very friendly yet professional. Our family truly loved this property. So close to the beach access and beautiful pool on site. We highly recommend!

First Time OBX Visit
This was overall a great property with everything as advertised. The house was spotless on arrival and with the outdoor shower easy to keep clean during the week. It was nice that the fresh towels came wrapped so you knew they had been washed thoroughly. The beach access was relatively easy (id say about 7-10 min) from exiting door to sitting on beach walking with family and kids. The pool and hot tub were in great working order so easy to relax at home as well. The kitchen and bathrooms had everything needed to start the week and there are markets in town for everything else. I should mention the kitchen is stocked with everything (pans, pitchers, knives, etc). Overall - this was an easy and great experience and we will stay here again when we return to OBX.

Family Vacation
We just returned from another great Outer Banks vacation. Nelene is very easy to work with. We had no issues so we only communicated at check in and check out. Both times were very pleasant. The house is beautiful and in one of the most beautiful areas on the Outer Banks. Very quiet and tranquil but accessible to restaurants, shopping, entertainment, etc. We mainly utilized the house, pool, and beach. Beach access is only a short walk from the house. I highly recommend this property. Thank You Nelene! J.S. & Family

Responsive Host & Comfortable Beach House
The host was very kind and responsive! We felt welcome staying at their beach house before we even arrived. She answered all of my questions almost immediately, before and during our stay. It is evident that a lot of time and effort was put into the details of preparing the beach house. My family and I felt comfortable during our stay.

Our first time to OBX was a success!
My favorite thing about this property was watching the remarkable sunsets from the back deck. The house also offers beautiful ocean views from the front deck, easy access to the beach. It was nice to have beach chairs provided, since we didn't bring any. My hubby is the cook in our family and was pleasantly surprised to find everything he needed to cook for our large family. The ice maker couldn't keep up with us making our fun drinks, but not a problem, we just bought a couple bags of ice. The pool area is nice and has plenty of lounge chairs. The hot tub was out of commission and unfortunately had to be replaced. Talk about service with a smile…We arrived on a Saturday, Nelene had a new hot tub delivered on Monday. We were able to enjoy it on Tuesday. Nelene was responsive and super nice to talk to. The check in process was easy. We really liked the fact that our linens were delivered in sealed plastic bags, reassured us that our linens were fresh and clean. It's a very short drive to Fish Heads, a waterfront pub with a nice fishing pier. Bodie's Island Lighthouse is super close too. Overall, this house was perfect for us! We enjoyed every bit of our stay in Nags Head. Thank you, Nelene for being a great host!

Fabulous beach getaway!
This house is in a great location across the street from the beach and close to shopping, restaurants and other attractions. The decks offer fantastic views of the sunrise and sunset! Where else can you watch both from the comfort of your deck in a chair with coffee or a cocktail? The house offers plenty of room to spread out and the kitchen has many appliances and other cooking supplies to make many a great meal. It’s clean and well cared for. We loved the idea that the linens are supplied in a sealed packet showing great care and consideration for cleanliness. The host was very responsive and helpful during our stay! Couldn’t have asked for more! The pool area is great for those days when you don’t feel like hitting the beach or when you just want to unwind. Plenty of pool seats and floats for everyone. There’s also a charcoal grill which we put to good use with some steaks and seafood! The beach chairs and umbrellas were an added benefit making the beach experience top notch. I would recommend this house to anyone looking for a great location with lots of room and amenities and a great host!

About the host

Hosted by John Gibbs

Host profile image
We have been vacationing on the Outer Banks since we were teenagers. Lifelong residents of Virginia Beach, VA, It has always been our lifelong dream to own our own home on the Outer Banks. That dream became a reality in December of 2014. We decided to share our home with our guests for a few weeks during the summer. Our home has been updated, renovated, and cleaned to have it pristine and sparkling and ready for our guests. Our guests enjoy our home as much as we do as you can see from our reviews from previous vacationers.
Owners wife , Nelene, is Licensed Real Estate Broker in Virginia and North Carolina.

Why they chose this property

Our home is located directly across the street from the beach in a quiet private neighborhood of South Nags Head. We say we are at the end of the rainbow. There are only a few houses between our home and the Cape Hatteras National Seashore Park. Our back deck overlooks the Cape Hatteras National Seashore which provides amazing sunset views. It is a great place to take the family for a walk, bike ride, or just sit on the decks and enjoy the magnificent sunrise views from the front in the morning and magnificent sunset views from the back in the evening . These views and the location, along with the updates we have made to our home, make this home our 'dream come true'. During the many years of vacationing on the Outer Banks, and never wanting to leave, we can now say we own our dream home! We know you will enjoy it as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

You will enjoy the beautiful pristine beaches of South Nags while only minutes away from all of the restaurants, fishing and entertainment that Nags Head and the Outer Banks has to offer. We have spectacular views from every area in our home. We have updated our home with new furnishing, new paint, a new salt water pool, hot tub and fully stocked kitchen. We have a 6 mile jogging/bike/walking trail that extends for 6 miles. This is a concrete path great for an evening bike ride after dinner a walk or rollerblading. We are only a mile and 1/2 from the Bodie Island light house. We have a large outside shower with dressing area on the ground level. After staying in many different vacation homes over the years on the Outer Banks, we know what is needed to make a memorable vacation stay and that is exactly what you will get with our home. You can be assured there will be no surprises when you arrive and that everything will be spotlessly clean and prepared for your arrival.
