Great location for bringing in the new year, 2024.
AMAZING LOCATION! The elevator was particularly helpful with this home's four floors, as four of the five of us had various levels of mobility. The interior is dated, but functional. Queen-sized beds were advertised, but were really only full-sized. The king-size bed on the fourth floor was great. The 5 1/2 baths were modern and a plus during our stay; although, one of the second floor bathrooms did have an unsecured shower curtain. Conveniently, there were TV's in each bedroom; but one of the second floor rooms had a non-working television. The ice maker and dishwasher did not work; so, prepare to buy ice and wash dishes by hand. The kitchen was generously stocked with dishes, silverware, glassware, coffee makers, seating, and a FANTASTIC VIEW! The third floor deck was a high point with the wonderful ocean and moon and dolphin run views. The easy beach access and good shelling just feet from the cottage made our stay very fun.

housing for conference
Well, first let me say - Lori is very responsive to your communications and needs during your stay - so do not hesitate to contact her if you need something managed. I will say that when I read the reviews last year, before renting this house and the one next door I didn't see all the reviews I'm seeing this year which seem quite neg. After staying there and reviewing recent reviews I will say the following. We had a large group 21 pp that shared two houses - we were 3 churches pooling our resources to make a local counseling conference more affordable for more pp to come. We succeeded in staying at these rentals - we could make our food on sight - the kitchen had all the utensils and bowls, and pans we needed - I don't always find that in houses we rent - it had both a perk pot and a keurig allowing for the various coffee/tea drinkers to do what they needed. these homes are aging and are used by weekly renters so things begin to happen, I do believe the owner knows about them and addressing them - further these houses are for sale. what I noticed I mentioned to the owner - for instance the cleaning service she uses didn't clean something I mentioned it and she said she would get right on it with them. I'm pretty confident the issue was resolved for the next renter - so when I say she's responsive just message her. your on the beach - house is clean - organized and we had our own school of dolphins all week - amazing.

Open house layout of kitchen very accommodating for cooking and socializing. Some deferred maintenance issues, (windows not opening, siding, fence in walkway, worn sinks and bath) but did not stop us from having tons of fun. Great master bedroom and shower. We hope to return!

Realxed beach stay
Our stay was just like the title...a relaxed beach stay. We had everything we could need at the house and the owner was quick to check in on us apon arrival and made herself available for anything we might need. Folks who complain about every fit and finish are not enjoying thier vacation like they should. We will definitely be looking at this property again, if still available, the next time w e head to the beach. It was a true pleasure.

Beautiful Location
This house is very conveniently located on a quiet section of Croatan Beach. The new deck and walkway to the beach were very nice. We had several rather big issues with the house that the owner handled quickly and with good humor. The house needs some work to bring it back to its glory days. The basement area where the pool table and laundry are located was quite musty smelling. It is obvious the owner is working on different issues but like all houses it is never ending. The elevator was great for bringing luggage and groceries in. The lifeguard is right in front of the house. The stores for groceries are under 10 minutes away.

Great house right on the beach with plenty of room including a central space for cooking and hanging out. Great brand new deck and walkway/steps right to the beach. The host, Lori, was very responsive and helpful when needed. Some things are a little dated, but hey, it's a beach house and a great time was had by all.

Family Race Weekend
Annual race weekend at the beach. Awesome location, view from porch and walkway to the beach were amazing. Both have been replaced and are in great condition. Plenty of size to accommodate 3 families with children. As mentioned in reviews the interior is outdated, but did not damper our stay.

There are much better places
Did the heat, water, and electricity work? Sure, but this place is on the market to be sold and is clearly not a place the owners care about any longer (it's a teardown for the next buyer). The siding is literally flying off the building. The metal railings on the floating stairs are being held together with packing tape. Of the two sinks in the master bathroom, one has a broken drain. I only read the fine print in the contract after the fact...there are no towels or sheets at this property. But at the rate they charge - not to mention the crazy high cleaning fee - you would assume it would have them. But even with those missing, I assumed we would have the basics like hand towels? Soap in the bathrooms? Pepper? Nope. It really felt like we were in an abandoned building. It has an elevator, but it's busted. It has a pool table, but it is only accessible through a garage with so much stuff packed into it that it freaked out my kids. The hot tub in the pictures is long gone. The windows don't shut all the way...I could go on but take my word for it - you'll find a better place.

That 80s Band That's Decided To Tour in 2022
First, let me say that Lori is a stellar host who responds quickly, and gracious for even silly questions and requests. Our stay was pleasant, as we only wanted to chill at the beach. Relax, no fanfare. That was achieved. Now...for the property: You know that hot 80's or 90s band you wish you'd seen in the 80s? Then, come 2022 they go back on tour but not in their 20's anymore? More like in their 60s? Let me try and paint this hot band in their 60's analogy for you. Think of it this way: Beach location is outstanding, like those top 20 hits you wanted to hear live in concert in your formidable years. Well designed and laid out (for 20 somethings who want to go up and down 4 flights of stairs. Feels a bit off-key playing lead guitar at 60.) Per other reviews, repairs have been made to things like the back deck, but not replacements. There are soft spots that make you a bit nervous. Think of those 80s black leather pants that don't fit any longer since you gained 20lbs but you still feel they're stylish until you rip them if you try playing a 2 hour set. Bring your own sheets and towels. This was a first in all the homes we've rented. Felt like using a lighter for the encore rather than flashing my smartphone. Or like a few of the original members are no longer with the band and you can tell when you hear them. It's still a good band. Just wish I'd seen them several years ago in their prime.
