Simply wonderful
This off the main path home was just exactly what we were looking for. Captured the history of Ocracoke and came complete the the ghosts and spirits of all the sailors who lived there who were lost as sea. Why else would our candle refuse to stay lit?????. Great spot. It was just me and my wife but you could easily bring 3 kids along …but I assure you we had lots more fun trying out all the bedrooms by ourselves!!!!- Posted: 5/22/2022

we had another wonderful week on Ocracoke. we've been coming to the island for 38 years and it never disappoints. Aleta was the perfect size and in one of our favorite locations on the island.- Posted: 9/15/2024

Hard to have a bad stay at Ocracoke. Loved the house, but the plumbing for sink in main bath needs repaired and outdoor and indoor cushions could use upgrade.- Posted: 6/16/2024

mostly great! we love and appreciate an old house, but this one could use few upgrades for renters -- sofa upgrade (throw pillows are beyond words), outdoor chair pillow upgrade, fix wobbly dining table, throw out old/used/broken games and toys. Very clean otherwise and charming- Posted: 4/7/2024
