Jun 19, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Outer Banks Vacation - A “Gift of Sound” The Gift of Sound is the perfect vacation rental for a family vacation. The home is located directly on the sound. The views of the sound from the home are amazing, especially the sunsets. The house is bright, open, spacious and welcoming. With five (5) bedrooms our family of 10 was very comfortable. The owner has thought of everything and has stocked the home with everything a family needs. We have stayed in many vacation homes and this home stands out by far. The house was clean and well maintained. Our family enjoyed fishing and crabbing from the dock, swimming in the pool and soaking in the hot tub. The property has many amenities that includes a community clubhouse with access to a gym and tennis courts. Gift of Sound is close to local businesses: restaurants, gift shops and grocery stores. It is the perfect property for a family vacation. ##### Larry-Rose P. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Shannon K.
