Nice for a large group, We had plenty of room for our family of 7. The house was clean and comfy. Roanoke island/Nags Head is about an hour away. The plus side to that is that it’s very quiet with no traffic congestion. The negative is that larger grocery stores are a bit of a drive.

Great spot to just get away in the country. Quiet, small town that has lots of little fishing holes and excellent crabbing. Just a hours drive into town and beaches.

Affordable, well-planned rental for a larger group

We stayed for five days in the summer, with our son and daughter-in-law and their two school-age children (and our dogs). During that time, we also had our other two other sons visit. One spent a day with us, and the other spent a night also. We visited the Outer Banks on two days and explored nearby outdoor activities on the others. We enjoyed the great sky views and seeing the nearby farm and boat areas.

We came down for a hunting trip and this property was great. Great area in Engelhard, ample beds, spotless on the inside, fully equipped kitchen and so much more. The owners made us feel at home and communication was great with some spot on recommendations.

Wonderful House centrally located

We had a wonderful time staying at this property. It was close to Mattamuskeet for winter waterfowl viewing and not too far from the Outer Banks, Pungo Lake or Phelps Lake. The house was roomy and comfortable with a nice big kitchen and common areas and comfortable beds. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Relax and Recharge

The Gibbs lodge was a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the real world. Although it was a little more remote than we had anticipated, the amount of things to do in the Hyde county area was immense. The Gibbs family has quite a history in the area and they welcomed us with open arms. Great place to stay and relax.

Vacation to NC

In a quiet and safe neighborhood. The house within had lot of rooms and beds, easily sleep 12 to 14 people. On arrival the place was easily accessed and was neat and clean. The owner Caroline came immediately once we arrived. We understand she stays in that neighborhood. She was very informative and helpful throughout the stay. Caroline saw that our stay was comfortable. We could frankly ask her if we needed any supplies or information. Also, there was a listed information of the local stores and the sightseeing places and activities. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, kitchen wares and spices. All the appliances were in good running condition but of older model. The barbeque coal grill was rusted due to the elements since it was chained outside. We enjoyed the sunrise & sunsets which were very beautiful. Went cycling around the community since not much traffic. The outer banks are an hour drive. One night we enjoyed the campfire even though there was a lot of mosquitoes. So be prepared with insect repellent. Overall, both of our families were very much satisfied of the stay. Hoped we stayed a bit longer.

House was perfect!

House accommodated 2 families easily with room and seating for everyone. House was clean, plenty of towels and kitchen was well equipped. The drive to Nags Head was not bad (we did this 5 days in a row), and everyone we met in town was super friendly. Thank you Caroline and Greg!!
