Great Experience

This was our first time to Corolla Beach and driving on the beach. We didn’t know what to expect with airing down and finding the house! The directions were great and the photos were exactly how the house was! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook. There wasn’t soap in the bathrooms, but we did find the big bottle under the sink to fill them all. It was so nice having 4 bathrooms all with showers and a tub! The beds were all comfortable and the house provides lots of space for people to have privacy. The outside shower was great after spending time on the beach. The decks were awesome to sit each morning and night and look out at the ocean. We enjoyed sunrises and sunsets each night and absolutely loved the visits from the horses!! They came right up to the house!! They even brought the baby! The private circle driveway was nice too! (We couldn’t figure out how to get the game system to work downstairs for the kids and the one bedroom tv wouldn’t work either.)Great house, great stay!!!

The house was perfect for a quiet, relaxing vacation. We enjoyed opening the windows, listening to the ocean and letting the breeze come through the main living space on the third level. The drive up the beach to Corolla took only about 10 minutes so it was easy to get to restaurants, stores and other attractions.

Beautiful Views

This was the perfect vacation. The views of the sunrise and horses were amazing. We even spotted a foal. It was my daughter’s literal dream come true. You do need a 4x4 vehicle to get there, and I’d recommend timing your trips in and out with the tides. The host was incredible and responsive, and we had no issues at all with the property. The beds were incredibly comfy.

Phenomenal Location

Although we visited during a storm which was outside everyone’s control the views from the home and the location were wonderful. And even though the roads were flooded even one block inland, we were completely unaffected due to location of this house. Fast and easy communication to property owners with any questions and even checked in on us to ensure we were all okay after the storm. Loved the pool table and all the beach toy options available even though we didn’t get much of a chance to use them. Would definitely recommend to others.

Best vacation ever !

This was seriously the best, most relaxing vacation ever. The house was clean and smelled great when we arrived. We had four adults and six kids and there is plenty of room to spread out, no one was crowded, it was great. The dishwasher broke and Jo had a new one installed the very next day. We saw the horses almost everyday, they come right up under the deck. Absolutely incredible and 1000% worth the 12 hour drive we had !

The setting of the house with great views of the ocean, beautiful sunrises from the front porch and sunsets from the back porch! And the horses came right up to the house to graze which was so amazing ! Jo host was amazing with communication before and during our stay.

Awesome beach vacation.

The location of the house was amazing! The horses were the highlight of the trip! The sand was incredible. The house was spacious and very nice and tidy, clean and bright. We were unable to use the bottom floor because the air was quite musty smelling, which is a sensitivity for me personally. However I imagine the time of year is partial blame as well as a common problem with beach homes.
