Mr. Vrabel

I'm 6' 4" tall, and had trouble moving around the room, cause it's built for someone shorter. Wish you would have explained that it was built for a midget, I would have looked elsewhere. Instead I was miserable the entire time. didn't even have a simple chair to sit in. PUT IN YOUR BROCHURE IT IS FOR SMALL PEOPLE!

Fishing Getaway

My husband and I stayed here with our oldest kid back in October of 2022. We enjoyed it so much we came back this April for a short kid-free getaway. Place was exactly as last time! Ground level, easy entry, clean room, etc. We enjoyed our short trip! The fish biting was a bonus!

Clean, comfortable & cozy

We stayed for one night after attending the NC Seafood Festival in nearby Moorhead City. It was perfect for the 2 of us-clean, cozy & a comfy sleep. Of course, a walk on the beach in the morning was icing on the cake! My only suggestion would be to list the “coffee maker” as a Keurig or single use. Because we knew that coffee would not be provided, we brought our own, but because it was a Keurig, we had to run out to buy k cups.

Wonderful Stay

Location was wonderful - the beach was only a short walk across the dunes, unit was super clean and had everything we needed for a few days at the beach. We were able to cook our own meals in the kitchen area which had cookware, cutlery and place settings for 4 and all appliances (fridge, range, Keurig & microwave) were in working condition. (Grocery store is just minutes away.) Also, beds were very comfortable and night hours were extremely quiet so we were rested for the next day of activities. There were even 2 beach chairs in the closet! We'll definitely try to come back for another stay in the future.
