Horse Inn Around 🐴 : Beach Fun for All 🐾 Pet Friendly!

We invite you to put your toes in the sand and a beverage in your hand...Horse Inn Around is our little oasis where we escape to relax and enjoy a secluded beach vacation. We visit the area as often as we can and love it for it's peaceful laid back, away from it all atmosphere. Enjoy your complimentary (Horse Inn Around bottle of wine) while soaking in the serene hot tub under the twinkling stars.

Almost everything is new including: hot tub, wet bar and a fully stocked kitchen. Even a high chair for the little one.

A 4WD VEHICLE IS A MUST TO GET TO THIS PROPERTY. Seriously, You're going to drive 10 miles up the beach and LOVE EVERY SECOND OF IT!

**Linens (bedding and towels) can be provided for an additional fee or bring your own. Please advise at the time of booking.

**Pets welcome for an additional fee (more fun to bring with you and definitely most cost effective than boarding).

The location is a remote, wooded lot, where the horses love to roam and take shade from the sun. While private, you are just a short two-minute drive to the beach, where you can chose your favorite beach front parking spot and relax, look for sea shell treasures, maybe spot a school of dolphins or watch the horses play. Beach parking passes included.

Note: In Carova, there is a large dune that separates houses from the beachfront, so most vacationers choose to drive to the beach regardless if 50 feet or 1100 feet from the beach. It's part of the charm of Carova -one of the only beaches left in the USA that you can still drive and park on. No need to pack and unpack all of your beech stuff, all week! Why carry the cooler when your 4 wheel drive can do it for you.

You will see horses and more stars than we could all ever count!

Great week on the beach
My family and I had a wonderful stay in North Carolina thanks to Rene and Dan. Their property is on a lovely piece of land behind the dune field. It's quiet and isolated from the loudest aspects of the beach, but a comfortable walk or drive to the surf. We enjoyed picnicking on the patio and relaxing, very much.

Loved the horses
We looked for the horses everyday with success and ease. We watched them play on the beach. We loved that the beach wasn't too crowded. The house was beautiful. Our family had such a great time we added an extra day to our stay. The hosts were very helpful with any questions we had as well.

OBX Vacation
We visited during the 4th of July week. Despite the business of OBX during this time, it was very relaxing out at the cottage. Everything was just as described in the listing, we have 4 small children and everyone was very happy. We arrived during a huge thunderstorm and found some water leaking in. Contacted the owners and they responded immediately. Probably the best VRBO experience we have had. Loved it! ❤️

Relaxing getaway
This was a great holiday getaway. Property is exactly as seen in the pictures. We arrived to a clean, cool home with the air conditioning and ceiling fans on awaiting our arrival. Our daughter also appreciated the snack selection that was prepared as an arrival gift, a very nice touch. Thanks for a great time... and oh yes, the horses did visit us.

Perfection!
Words cannot describe how wonderful this beach home is… Yes, I said home! My family and I enjoyed this place so much that we stayed another night, if it wasn’t for adult responsibility we would have stayed longer. The horses came right up to the house and walked the beach plenty of times, plus we got to see dolphins almost every day. The 4x4 beach was absolutely amazing and a great place to explore. We found the most beautiful shells on our morning and night walks. We definitely plan on making this apart of our new adventures in the futures. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

I love the beach in November. This was the perfect girls getaway. The house was private, had plenty of space for us, and a big enough kitchen to cook all the meals. The hot tub was a hit, would definitely stay again!

A big surprise
I had no idea I picked a location that we needed 4-wheeler drive to get to the house I am glad this adventure happened because I was forced to face some fears It was beautiful and the horses were all over...I would really like to go back but my fears might not let me

Quite and relaxing even with all the steps.. lol
The property is 3 or 4 'streets' back from the beach allowing for alot of peace and quiet. We were visited only once by one of the wild horses during our stay, which was fine. They roamed freely almost every day we were on the beach, especially in the evening. The top deck of the house allows for early morning sun bathing while waiting for the rest of the family to wake up and start there day. The kitchen was stocked with plenty if pots, pans, utensils and even some spices... The hosts were very respectful of our time in the house and let us know early in that someone would be stopping by with some products for the hot tub. All communications were timely and very friendly. Definitely recommend.

Great stay
This is the second year we ha e stayed at this house. The location is great and we had everything we needed. I would recommend that they do a deep cleaning a couple times a year as there was a lot of dust on the cabinets and behind the beds etc. Overall it was a great stay.
