Kitchen was equipped with lots of large bowls and serving platters. Plenty of plates and flatware for a large group (14). The pool was great and the hot tub was fantastic. Grocery store and fantastic ice cream place within a few blocks walk. Beach access was just a block away. 2 refrigerators was nice to have.

Host was very responsive to questions. Jim was very responsive to what we needed. House layout was very nice, we loved the location. Pool area was great. Improvements: was not as clean as I would have liked, example kitchen counter was sticky, food stuck on plates, dirty glasses and silverware, pee on bottom of toilet, we had to do cleaning before we felt comfortable. Some of the furnishings were very old and really should be replaced (like the couch). I realize rental houses are well used, and I don't expect it to be perfect. But for 9K for a week, I would have liked clean.

The home was super convenient to get to the beach and the pool was great as well. There was a close parking lot that led to the beach in case you needed to drive beach supplies but it was close enough to walk to as well. The home is also located close to the main strip where grocery stores, shopping, the dunes, etc. are located. Our one negative of the home was the cleanliness. The people who clean the home were still working on it when we arrived so they may have rushed to let us in on time. Some beds weren't made and some of the bathrooms and bedrooms were not recently cleaned. We had to take some time of our first day there to vacuum and wipe areas down. If the home would have been cleaned properly, I would have rated it 5 stars.

The perfect home away from home
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The kids lived in the pool on the days it didn’t rain and didn’t want to go home. There was so much room that when we needed to separate, we were able to go to our respective rooms and chill. I loved the accommodations for our 15 month old. There were baby gates, high chairs, a crib, and 2 pack and plays that were available for use. I never found the baby monitor but it was enough of us that we could keep up with her. The beach wasn’t far, but there were too many steps for my mom to have to go up and down to enjoy the beach, so i wouldn’t recommend for families that need accessibility features. Overall, i would definitely come and stay again if we had the opportunity.

Family obx trip
We had a great week in OBX. House was just the right number of bedrooms and bathrooms for our group. Pool is wonderful to come back to from the beach and enjoy. Location was great for the beach, shopping and restaurants. Ben was very easy to communicate with. Our only complaint was for the bedroom on the ground floor the bed was extremely uncomfortable.

Nice place
We enjoyed our stay. It is a nice house and the kitchen in well-appointed with cooking and eating utensils. There are 2 hand blenders. The rooms on the second and third floor are nice. However, the knob on the bathroom sink comes off in your hand. The 1st floor queen bed squeaks very loudly whenever you move. So that is a drag, if there are two people sleeping in it. The bathrooms that are shared could use more towel racks or put towel racks and/or hooks in the bedrooms. The first floor bathroom that is shared is especially small and could use a shelf as well as at least another towel racks and hooks. Finally, for all of the people that the house can sleep, the gathering room (3rd floor) has very few seats that are comfortable - basically only seating for 5 comfortably or at most 7, if you cram yourselves in. It would be nice if there were additional comfortable seating. We would rent again but probably with fewer people. There were 11 of us.

Really enjoyed this house. Clean. Very close to beach. Responsive host. Appreciate that it already had basic amenities (tp, hand and dish soap, paper towels) upon arrival so that we didn’t have to go to the store immediately upon arrival.

Awesome Vacation!
Our stay at the Beach Bum Inn was great! The house worked out wonderful for my family. Close to the beach, pool and the hot tub were relaxing after a day at the beach. My teenage granddaughter doesn’t like the sand so she really loved the pool. Ben was very accommodating and quickly answered my questions. Would stay there again in a minute.

Our family of 11 had an amazing week at the beach bum Inn! The house had every thing we needed. It was great not having to worry about sheets and towels. The house was well stocked with the comforts of home. There was plenty of lounge chairs around the pool and pool toys for the kids. The hot tub was an added plus. This was our first time to Nags Head and we will definitely be back.

Nice Large House Near The Beach
Perfect house for a large family group. Pool & hot tub were well-maintained and very enjoyable. Distance from Nags Head beach is ideal here in the third row, away from the busy street. You can't actually view the beach from this property's balcony, but it's a very short walk. The only small drawbacks were a lack of paper products, dish soap & garbage bags at the house when we arrived, but there's a large grovery store around the corner so we just grabbed what we needed instead of complaing to the host; I'm sure it was just a minor oversight & not a big deal to us at all. If you need a dog-friendly, kid-friendly house near the beach with plenty of bedrooms, this one should do nicely.

This 7 bedroom property was perfect for our family of 14. The location is great-a short walk to the beach, short walk to grocery store, coffee shop, and ice cream. Having a pool in the backyard was great for the kids. Kitchen well equipped. Quick email response from Ben with questions.

We enjoyed our trip.
The property was nice except for all the stairs, but with a three story house, they were no surprise. The house seemed pretty clean. The top floor master bathtub had what looked like potting soil in it. The pool table needed sweeping off. Other than those small things the house was in good condition. I mentioned them, because when you see a little dirt, it makes you wonder how clean the house really is... We enjoyed our stay and the short walk to the beach. Thank you for offering this house.

It's hard to find 4 king bedrooms and so many bathrooms to accommodate our crowd and this place does the trick. Lots of kid and dog friendly decks too that don't open to the outside, so no runaways. We hung out by the grill area this year because there is a little sandy spot next to it with plenty of beach chairs right inside, like a personal beach. Walked to Red Drum in 1 minute. This cottage checks lots of boxes. Will go back.
