Great rental house
Clean, quiet and great location with private dock on the canal. House is well maintained, immaculately clean and fully stocked with kitchen utensils, pots and pans, and a grill outside. Plenty of room for my family plus more. I would definitely stay again!

Beach getaway
Property is away from the normal crowded areas of the beach traffic having a 4 by 4 beach drive very scenic and beautiful. The house has more than enough room for my family and amenities for kitchen and living space that I like when traveling. We will be staying here in the future!!!

Great get away!
Property was exactly waht we were looking for. Super clean! We saw horses every day and even had a parade of 4 walk right underneath the deck! We loved the remoteness of the location but still close enough we could head to town. Owners were responsive to our questions throughout the stay.

Vacation
Great location secluded on the beach!!! Plenty of room and kitchen amenities to cook and the feel of your own beach house. Not a lot of noise which is relaxing. Close to the wild horses which is what this home affords. Had a great time with family and hope to come back real soon!!!

Canal Fishing & Beach Chilling Perfection
House was very clean, spacious yet cozy, and well stocked with necessities and games for entertaining. The decor was tastefully done yet still gave you space to put personal belongings in bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, and common areas. The outdoor space was great for morning coffee, grillin & chillin, and storage of beach and fishing gear. Tossing in a fishing line at the canal in the morning and evening was great entertainment. We have 4 young kids and the trip was perfect. We hope to get back again!!

Fantastic property
We had a terrific stay. The place was clean, had all the amenities we would need, and the location was amazing. We caught catfish and crab right off the canal and cooked the crabs up that night in a low country boil. Had an extra fridge/freezer down below if needed. We saw horses everyday on the property. We looked up the ISS flyover and could see it perfectly due to the lack of light pollution. Cell service and internet was great. Had an amazing time and will book this place again over others.

Private and Quiet
Great location and enjoyed the stay. View of the wild horses across the canal almost every morning and evening. Great fishing right off the easy accessible dock. Only complaint I could have is the water in the house. The water softener system needs maintenance regularly. There was a very strong sulfur “rotten egg” smell in the water and all towels and toilets were stained orange.

Incredible Stay
I can't rave enough about this property. It fully captures the essence of Carova Beach and is an ideal property for anyone looking to experience all that Carova Beach has to offer. The house was immaculate and offered plenty of room for our party of 6 (all adults). We loved the rustic feel of the wood floors and shiplap. The decor and furniture provided the perfect feel of a remote beach paradise. The decks and docks provide the perfect outdoor activity areas. We visited in December so jumping in the canal for a swim was off the table, however I can imagine it would be a perfect swimming hole in the warmer months. We strongly recommend anyone traveling to Carova Beach to check this property out. The hosts have done an excellent job in keeping this property up. It really is amazing!

Peaceful getaway
This was our first trip to the 4x4 area and it was amazing! The house was easy to find and perfectly furnished. There is one house next door but otherwise it is very private. We enjoyed the hot tub in the evenings and it was extraordinarily peaceful! The neighborhood was very quiet and dark at night which was ideal for relaxing and watching the stars. Communication with the owners was seamless and quick. We took the kayaks out one afternoon onto the canal and thoroughly enjoyed the leisurely paddle. The dock at the house was convenient and a great place to hang out and enjoy a glass of wine! We wouldn’t hesitate to come back to this lovely house. Although it has been said before, I’ll concur that you must have a 4-wheel drive to access the house. As another reviewer stated, it is easiest to drive all the way up the beach until you reach the “Shark Rd” ramp. GPS may direct you off the beach and into the neighborhood but the beach is easier to drive on than the other roads if it has been raining (they can have massive deep puddles). It’s a great adventure and I can’t recommend this vacation spot enough!

The place was very clean and comfortable. The water smelled terrible, but we understand that happpens up on the beach, but also know it can be better. Was really disappointed that there was no hot tub as mentioned in the property listing. Overall a really good stay and would consider the property again.

This property was very clean and well maintained. The location was unexpected. We did not anticipate just how far we had to travel on the beach to get there. We had not stayed anywhere like it before.

Lovely Home
We had a wonderful stay. The home was clean, well furnished, comfortable and linens were plenty. Kitchen was well equipped and Keurig was a plus. Communication with the owner was easy and we received prompt replies. Only suggestion I have is to add a lamp to the master bedroom. The listing did say there was a hot tub when we booked but there is no hot tub. You will love your stay at this home for sure. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your home!

Extremely Clean home in perfect location
We just returned from staying here and it was the best beach experience I have ever had! The house was a minute drive to the beach but still very private. The gps took us through some extra bumpy neighborhoods so we learned to look for the cell phone tower and fire station sign and turn in there since the street was not listed on gps. We stopped at Food Lion on our way in to stock up on food for the week (make sure to grab all paper products). We cooked on the grill every day and was able to enjoy our meals peacefully outside. We really loved the location because we noticed the beach was not as crowded in that area which was perfect for my family.

A Great Week in the Outer Banks
The house was exactly what we expected and then some. We did have some set backs towards the end of our week, but that was not due to this great location. Spencer & Kelley both were helpful for our set back. Thank you both!

Wonderful experience!
Our Girl Scout troop thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Corolla. We had great service from our property owner when wifi went down. And overall we had such a pleasant time staying off the beach road with the wild horses wondering through our property. It was such a unique and memorable experience for our girls. Highly recommend this place and location to everyone!

Clean, comfortable, and great location
We are seasoned Carova travelers and enjoyed staying here. The house was the perfect size for just our family and worked well for a trip with small children. It is very private with trees all around, which we appreciated. The hot tub up on the deck was very nice. Tons of clean towels, very handy outdoor house and shower for cleaning off sand, convenient fridge and washer/dryer in the ground floor utility room. The only negative thing I have to say is that I didn't know the house didn't have a dishwasher, and that was frustrating to find out once I was already there. We would absolutely stay here again!

Fantastic Beach Getaway
Incredible week on the Outer Banks. The 4x4 area of Carova Beach is like no other place we have ever been and this house made it all the better. It was an easy walk to the beach or a quick trip in the truck with all of our beach gear. We took the kayaks off the dock out onto the canals and Knotts Island Bay - and it was beautiful. We saw the wild horses every day. Great place to get away from it all, but with all the comforts of a fully stocked spacious home. Had it all - hot tub, multiple decks, screened-in porch, washer and dryer, kayaks, dock, and horse visitors. We can't wait to go back!
