"Could not have been a nicer get-away. Cottage was clean, comfortable, and immaculately equipped. Ideally located it is relaxing oasis of comfort and a picturesque symbol of Ocracoke’s history. Cannot wait to return…"

"Overall very good. However, this house was lacking in a few things that other homes we have rented through your company came standard with. There was no soap provided or extra pillowcases for the extra pillows in the closet. The kitchen was well stocked but there was only one 8" pan which isn't enough to cook a family meal with. Most of your homes have 2 large pans. Along those lines, this home only provided one kitchen towel (not 2) and no dish towl or potholders. I didn't realize this until I went to get the muffins out of the oven...There was a plethora of baking dishes though 🙂 Lastly, it would be nice to have a hair dryer provided in at least one of the bathrooms. All of these things have been standard in the other homes we have rented. However, this is not a deal breaker for us, but things we would like for the owner to consider. The house is lovely, nice layout and great location!"

"The house was really cute and clean. It was close to everything. We loved the porch the most and sat out there every day until the sun went down. The living room was spacious and the bathrooms were modern and clean. The kitchen lacked frying pans to cook breakfast our first morning, which was disappointing, but Ocracoke Island Realty brought us pans later that afternoon. The tv reception was very grainy for nighttime relaxing. There is no grill so we bought one and we rented bikes to get around. Overall, we had a great weekend!"

"Beverly'sHouse was perfect for us. The teens took the upstairs and the bedroom downstairs remained quiet! The only thing the place needs is a closet or some way to hang up clothes downstairs that don't want to fold for a drawer."

"Beautiful house and very clean. The layout was perfect for my husband, myself and our dog. I loved the front porch, unfortunately, the traffic is constant for a road that basically is a dead end and the neighbors (locals) tended to be loud. However, that is not the fault of the Ocracoke Realty. The microwave was broke most of the week. I reported that issue twice. Thank you! "

"Pleasant family Thanksgiving getaway - The property owners were very communicative and everything they told us about the property and village was accurate. Definitely call ahead to double check exactly what is provided in terms of linens, soap, etc. They say this on their website, but not quite as clear in the VRBO description. Perfectly situated to walk to the marina, restaurants and shops, especially Ocracoke Coffee in the early morning. Well appointed kitchen, quite clean and everything we needed to use worked well."

"Lovely property - Enjoyed the location.
The place was really clean and inviting. The kitchen was a little awkwardly located from the main dining area. Couple of broken chairs but we used the benches.
2nd bathroom is not upstairs with the bedrooms it’s on the first floor, very new and fancy shower. Great outdoor shower for post beach.
I was surprised that there was no soap in any bathroom, when we asked the manager they said that they hadn’t gotten their shipment. Just as a point, they could have bought some, especially in this time of Covid 19. In addition there was no dishwasher soap even a day or two to start out. Since everything was closed by the time our ferry arrived it was a bit disconcerting to not have some basics.
We wanted to vacuum... there was a nice one in closet completely totally clogged with dog hair from something like a retriever... took us two hours to get it to the point we could use it. The dryer was clogged with lint...I mean it was in dreadlocks. Both of these items should be on a checklist. In addition there were no garbage bags in kitchen but plenty in bathrooms. If I’d known I would have brought more supplies. But it did detract from a wonderful week at the beach."
