Cottage in Sealevel
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 56 reviewsPELICANS REST ON CORE SOUND
WilliamRating, 5 stars3 days ago
My wife and I were pleasantly surprised when we pulled up to the home and how adorable it was and that it matched the listing exactly. The home was directly across the drive from the water we loved hearing the waves crash and watching all the different birds flying around especially the pelicans. We would wake early in the morning and watch the pelicans dive to catch fish and we would watch dolphins swim by as well. The location offered the quite secluded atmosphere we look for when renting on vacation and the size of the home was perfect for us we felt right at home. We would love to rent here again on our next outing in the Outer Banks area.

Cottage in Cedar Island
4.79 out of 5 average rating, 24 reviewsCedar Island cottage, short walk to beach
CarrieRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Great location for a slow, beach getaway with my family. We especially enjoyed the lovely, breezy porch and the beautiful, wooded location. Walking to the beach and to the ferry was easy. We appreciated all the extra amenities: beach chairs, puzzles and kitchen equipment. We would probably pack more water for drinking next time, but the little store had everything we needed. The drive onto the island, while truly stunning in many places, reminded us that our country is deeply divided and it will be a relief when the election is over.

Home in Arapahoe
5 out of 5 average rating, 11 reviewsRiverside Serenity
LaraRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
What a hidden gem! We stay here with our children (8 and 5yo). The house was incredibly clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Wonderful view from the deck. The property is beautiful. We fished off the dock for hours and had a blast swimming in the pool. We even saw a dolphin swim within 20 feet of the dock! Oriental is a cute town nearby - we had great carry out from The Silos and went to The Bean for ice cream. Piggly Wiggly grocery store had everything we needed. We loved our stay here and have already booked our next trip! Thanks for having us.

My husband and I wanted a relaxing stress free getaway to celebrate each other for our 25th anniversary, and Nola’s place provided that. Close enough to restaurants, downtown Beaufort and Morehead City that you can find plenty to do. Thank you for hosting!

TonyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a fantastic stay here! Home is very clean and comfortable. The dock is awesome. We spent most of our time at the lighthouse Cape Lookout. It’s as beautiful as any place I’ve been out there. Johnna is very nice and accommodating and the neighbors are great too!

Home in Beaufort
4.96 out of 5 average rating, 53 reviewsWipe Your Feet Retreat (New, Water Views, Pets)
ToniaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
The home was clean, well maintained, and exactly as described in the listing. The location was excellent—convenient and quiet, making it a great home base for our trip. Amenities matched the description, and everything functioned as expected. That said, the beds were not very comfortable, and the pillows were quite flat and inexpensive—if you're particular about sleep quality, I’d recommend bringing your own pillow. Overall, a pleasant stay with just a few areas that could be improved for guest comfort.
