Unit was accurately portrayed in listing. It could have been a bit cleaner at check in, but wasn’t bad. It’s an older unit, in an older neighborhood but is close to the beach and everything you need.

Very clean and perfect size for 2 couples to share the duplex — FYI anyone booking the cottages are duplex’s. We liked that there was a community pool/hot tub. It was also a great location and walking distance to several stores, restaurants, gas stations, and the beach. The house also provided linens (towels and sheets) plus paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap, dish washer soap and toiletries like shampoo conditioner soap etc. Would highly recommend!

Easy check in and check out. Property was exactly the way it was described on site. Short walk to beach was nice. Quiet neighborhood and beach wasn’t over crowded. We enjoyed our stay.

Travelled with family, Travelled with family and small children
Property was clean and loved location. Washer and dryer needs replaced. Kitchen was ok. Needs more cookware for families that really cook. Limited dishes but that’s ok we brought paper and plastic products since someone else had wrote a review of limited dishes. I have a one year old so stairs were an issue but we managed. No door or gate to close off stairs. Would stay again if I visited Hatteras.

Very Convenient Location and great condo
First trip to Outer Banks and didn't know what to expect. Liked it and the place we stayed really added to the experience. Good beds, two floor condo with a great balcony so we could see the ocean (through other other houses) and the bay. good breakfast place across the street (Fatty's) and good seafood walking distance (Diamond Shoals). good pool. easy walk to the beach.
