"This property had almost everything you need. We were traveling from Oregon so we’re a little unhappy we had to buy sheets, towels just for a two night stay. This has always been provided in any short term rental we have booked, it should be required. Great location and parking. Very close to everything. "

"The sun comes up in radiant orange. The home is warm with all the amenities. The Lowdermilks have expanded the yard behind the house and made it roomy entertainment for friends and visitors. Every thing about the cottage is readily available and "in its place". The only thing left to do is enjoy the ocean,the people and the serenity."

"If you’re looking for quiet and solitude, along with a homey place to lay your head - Windswept is it. My husband and I took our two miniature dachshunds with us for 7 days and 6 nights. There was a yard for them to run around in, a long board walk through a salt marsh down to a private beach. We caught crabs ( and threw them back), we flew kites, and just rested. One day we did take the Cedar Island ferry to Oacrscoke (a four hour journey - there and back). Be prepared to come with...

"Very comfortable house, loads of space and lots of storage. We really loved the welcome basket filled with goodies! Plenty of towels, blankets, and essentials. The front bedrooms were extemely bright at night, so much so that we spent a good part of our second day shopping for sleep masks. The beds were very comfortable though and there was plenty of room in the closets and dressers. Some of the soap dispensers were almost empty, but there were so many other things provided that made up for it...

"Incredible views. Great location. Beds were comfortable. House was so-so. Not as clean as others I have stayed in. After a 3 day road trip, the home was not ready when we arrived, so we ended up staying in a hotel the first night in Beaufort. Cleaning crew came the next morning and we were able to move in. We did not try the jacuzzi tub, but it looked nice. Furniture was very tired and uncomfortable. Kitchen cabinets were unorganized. I had to empty and organize pots and pans in order...

"The house was as, if not better, than the listing. The house was immaculate yet very homey. All of the appliances and amenities were up to date and worked well. Everything I needed was stocked. The view from the decks were very nice. The availability of a golf cart was also a huge plus. The host was very nice and easy to contact. I must admit I messed up my move in date and called him to admit my error. He was so helpful and allowed me to check in a little early after the house had been cleaned....

"I have nothing but good to say about this cute little house. It was tucked away in the center of Ocracoke just enough for privacy but close enough in town to ride the golf cart right down the street to all the shops and restaurants. The inside was decorated so nicely and very cozy. Me, my mom, and my lab had an amazing time.. We will definitely book again in the near future! "
