"Loved the house and the view was wonderful. A few minor issues - some knobs missing in the master bathroom on the vanity and on switch by the towel rack. It would have been nice to use the fireplace on a couple of the cool nights but it wasn't connected to a gas source. Cookie sheets or pizza pan would be helpful. We used aluminum foil in their absence. We did not use the rooms with the twin beds but noticed that the tv in one of those rooms did not have a remote. The fans in both bathrooms appeared to be motion activated but never turned off. We couldn't figure out how to turn on the lights over the breakfast bar in the kitchen. Please don't take these as negatives - we rebooked the house for next year."

"Our 37 th year. An ‘upside down’ house which always adds light to the second floor living areas.
Terrific location!
Bedrooms are all a very nice size.
My DIL said it was her favorite ever. (5 times here with visits also to family rentals).
My caveat: no second floor screened porch.
The screened areas are on the lower floor accessible only by going through a bedroom or walking down to the first floor and going outside to access it.
Might sound like a small thing but as it is MY favorite feature, I really missed a screened in porch on the second floor. I never went to the lower one even once.
Also… why there is a king size bed platform with a queen mattress on it befuddles me.
Still, it’s hard to find such a four bedroom in Ocracoke.
Overall it’s still 5 stars ."

"October 2016 Stay - This is a wonderful home, great location within walking distance of shops and restaurants. The view atop the crows nest is superb, with all of Silver Lake and a glimpse of Atlantic Ocean and Teach's hole. Great place for sunrise and sunset.
Admiral's retreat is well maintained, with well supplied kitchen for cooking just about anything . The only item not supplied is a barbecue grill. "

"Visited September 2020 One of a kind views of the Lighthouse! We absolutely LOVED "Admiral's Retreat" ♥The location is perfect for taking strolls! We enjoyed walking to Springer's Point a couple of times, down to the lighthouse and into town & back on many occasions! Views of the lighthouse are spectacular as well as watching the sunrise/sunset. Layout of the house is wonderful! Furniture & bedding comfortable. Plenty of outdoor seating too. Though it was clean there were some maintenance issues and overall the place could really use some extra (updated) TLC ♥Our family has been coming to Ocracoke Island for 4 generations! It felt sooo good to sink our feet in the sand, soak in the salty waves & revisit our old favorite shops & restaurants once again! Thank You Ocracoke Reality!"

"August 2019 Stay Your place was great! Our family really enjoyed being there together and enjoying the wonderful island! Close to the beach and beautiful to boot! Very restful. We visited all the nearby restaurants and even went parasailing, boating, jet skiing, and on the ghost tour!!! Thank you for providing a clean, comfortable home to come back to each night. "
