Great Family Getaway
Clean, comfortable accommodations in a beautiful location. We had a great time with our 4 kids relaxing, exploring, and enjoying the beautiful surroundings including horses that visited the yard! The house was well stocked with everything you could need. I was particularly impressed with the kitchen. We cooked most nights and had every tool I could wish for. The hosts were thoughtful and helpful. I would go back in a heartbeat.

Can't say enough great things about the place and the owner John and Kim. The pictures listed don't honestly do the place justice inside and out. Will definitely book here again in the future and can't wait to make it back down to the Outer Banks again.

Lovely get away
Comfortable and clean home with a well-appointed kitchen, and plenty of towels. But the location was the best amenity. I would stay here again. No questtion. A very short walk to the beach and less than a mile to False Cape State Park. The owner/host proactively contacted me to advise me of high & low tides. It’s much easier to access the house at low tide.

Perfect spot to see wild horses!
This house was clean, cozy and just the right size for our family trip. We wanted a private, non-crowded getaway and that is exactly what we got! We enjoyed the beach drive to get there, being so close to the beach and came just to see wild horses. We were able to see them every day of our stay and they were in the yard for quite a bit one afternoon! We had everything we needed

Very Nice escape
Although the weather was not the best, we still enjoyed our vacation, enjoyed walks along the beach. For my wife, the best part is when had visits from the horses, that was the selling point of the house her. The house is cleaned and maintained. The proximity to the ocean was very nice, even my dog liked that. I would recommend the property

Special place
We loved our stay here. The house is perfect for family with nice bedrooms, baths, well stocked kitchen, and lower level game room. Perfect location to the beach. On our first day, we had to wait to get in because one of the wild horses was having a bite to eat in the yard! We all agreed it was a great traditional beach house and the owners take great care in making it nice and comfortable. The drive in is no joke but great fun once you get used to it.

Perfect quaint cabin style that felt like home to me
Excellent location and access to the beach, horses almost every day in the yard. John was wonderful in communicating with me to navigate to his location since my nav system on my iphone would have landed me in the ocean! The dogs LOVED being on the porch looking at the horses, easy on and off to the beach. Just a nice homey feel to this "treasure" cabin. Argh!

Dream Stay
We arrived at the beach after the sun has set, and our first drive on the beach was a little bit scary, but every other aspect of our stay was incredible. The property was huge and had lots of conveniences available (blow dryer, salt, and pepper, lighters, wood), so we did not have to drive off the beach to pick up any little items. We had amazing weather for late November and numerous visits from the famed wild horses. We could not have been happier about our stay.

Family Vacation
Great location for nice relaxing stay! House was very clean and comfortable. Good outside spots too! We used the screened porch the most to catch the breeze. We saw horses everyday and dolphins in the ocean in the morning and evenings - it was a great treat! One thing I would do for next time would be to make sure to have food for the first night and next morning before arriving to the house after a long day of travel to avoid having to go out on the beach road again the first night we got there. Hope we can visit again soon!

Great escape
Wonderful getaway in a great, isolated location! House was clean and comfortable and kitchen was well-appointed - we particularly appreciated the bottled water as the tap water was the typical beach situation. The horses came through several times, even dropping in on us near the fire pit one night. Great communication with the owner, with good tips on the required sand driving. Could not have asked for more. Hope we can return!
