Oct 11, 2020 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Bungalow Cute place. Easy walk to beach. Neighborhood can be a bit boisterous due to number of rentals and location so close to Avalon Pier and Awful Arthur's restaurant. Place is a bit more worn since the photo shoot, but owners have put some effort into the style. A bit light on glasses, dishes and utensils and what's there is a bit dingy. We loved the screened-in porch. It was great to be able to have the dog along and it was easy to keep the floors c ##### John M. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristen P.

My husband and I brought our 15 month old daughter and two dogs to the bungalow for our 10 year anniversary in January. It was absolutely perfect. We loved the proximity to the beach and walked over every morning. The woodstove was so cozy in the chilly winter evenings. We also enjoyed the Duck boardwalk and had a lovely anniversary dinner at a restaurant Maria recommended. We were impressed with the little touches and the sweet attention to detail. We definitely want to return! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!! ##### Mia C. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kenny & Teresa, So. Charleston, WV Oct 26, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quaint old-school bungalow.... We stayed at this sweet bungalow last week and loved it! What you see online is true to what you get. It’s small, but it was absolutely perfect for the two of us and our old man poodle. Steps to the beach. Bicycles every evening to the sound for sunsets was fun. Do NOT miss those sunsets!! They are stunning! (Cross at the light at k-mart so you don’t get run over out on the 4-lane!!) Avalon pier for an afternoon beer was fun. Posting up under the pier with camera in-hand, filming those waves come crashing thru the pilings, yielded amazing shots. Between the perfectly crashing waves and the glorious sunsets, it’ll be hard to choose which to have blown up and framed. All perfect. But it’s the way with which we were kid-glove treated that I’ll always remember. We were scheduled to go down Sept. 6th to celebrate our 40th anniversary.... just as Dorian was making landfall in the Outer Banks. Maria was in constant communication with updates, penciling us in for the first week of October as an alternate, but leaving open the week in September, as well. We ultimately chose to wait. But that she would do that — carry us on the books for two separate weeks — was what we appreciated most of all. She gave us choice, with no strings attached. I told her then, and I meant it, that even if we never got there, our dealings with her would not be forgotten. So, what you see is what you get. If you’re attracted to old-school and quirky, you’ve found the right place. Now that it’s cool, you’ll absolutely love the screened porch and hammocks. You’ll love that outdoor shower. Most of all, you’ll rest assured you’re dealing with someone who takes great pride in her brand and wants you to have nothing less than a wonderful time! We wouldn’t hesitate to rent again.... and probably will. ##### Kenny & Teresa Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Beverly O., Kingsport, Tennessee Oct 6, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fall get away Relaxing in the hammocks with a good book and a cold drink was fantastic.

Aug 13, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic Home Away from Home Maria and Mike are perfect hosts--from the handmade soaps with our towels to the suggestions for surf lessons, kayaking, and more we had a great time away. The house is perfectly appointed, with everything we needed to fix meals when we wanted (blender, tumblers in the freezer for cold drinks, nice pots and pans for cooking, a coffee maker). The outdoor shower was a great way to end the day at the beach--and avoid tracking sand everywhere; and for quick runs into the house to grab something, the sprayer for rinsing off feet was great. I love the beach. I hate sandy floors. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the bedding very soft. For such a small space, the house easily fit the 4 of us (two teens, two parents). Walking to the beach was easy for sunrise or any time of day. My older daughter tried out the surfboard and had a blast. ##### Patricia B. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Brandi S.

We had 5 guests on our trip, and it was a comfortable stay for everyone. Upgrades in all the right places in the house, along with Mikey and Maria being superb hosts. We cooked amazing seafood home cooked meals all week. Waking up to the light breeze and sound of ocean, while laying in the hammock on the patio was as good as it gets. I would highly recommend this location and property to anyone wanting the best of it all. Several amenities inside bungalow for all activites including bikes, football, frisbee, and recommendations of the town. Bungalow was spottless but also had that home away from home feel. Loved this place and would DEFINITELY go back!!! ##### kelly p. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cory M. May 18, 2018 #### Avalon Beach Retreat This place is a nice reminder of what life is supposed to be like. Great beach access followed by the amenities of the outdoor shower to bikes and surfboards. I came out here to get away from the hassles of life and be with friends. It was nice to catch up while listening to our beach playlist with the cool ocean breeze blowing as we laughed and relaxed on the outdoor patio.

The house was perfect for my stay! Everything you would need and more, they even have hammocks in the front porch! There is so much to do and see near this spot and its basically in the center of OBX so traveling either north or south takes the same amount of time! All in all, I would come back to this spot anytime! ##### Greg C. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christian A. Jan 19, 2018 #### Amazing place to stay! We loved It Cute little place.

The guide that was sent prior to our arrival was a great overview of the property and its recommendations came in handy during our stay. The kitchen was very well appointed and made eating-in very easy. Our little girls loved the bunk beds and we greatly appreciated the Jenga game and deck of Uno cards on the chilly evenings. We can't wait to come back and stay when the weather is warmer and we can fully enjoy the bungalow's proximity to the beach! ##### Erica D.

Aug 7, 2017 #### Great beach bungalow Location was super convenient to the beach, sound, and local tourist attractions. The bungalow was well-stocked with just about everything you could need (just missing beach chairs but that's not a huge deal for me). Great response time and hospitality. Definitely recommend ##### Katie B. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2017 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scott B. Jul 22, 2017 #### Great spot for the holiday! We came for the 4th of July holiday and were not disappointed! The entrance to the beach and pier are right at the end of the road, the beach cart made lugging the cooler, umbrella and snacks down to the beach a breeze! My favorite part was lounging on the hammocks in the breezeway enjoying a cocktail made from the fine local Kill Devil Rum! ##### Scott B. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Silver Reef Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Silver-Reef-Casino-Resort.h16231932.Hotel-Information) > > [The Trail in Adams - Berkshires’ Art Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Adams-Hotels-Topia-Inn-An-Organic-Oasis.h12259511.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Riviera Resort Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Margaritaville-Resort-Palm-Springs.h26011.Hotel-Information) > > [Harrah’s Laughlin - A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.ca/Laughlin-Hotels-Harrahs-Laughlin-Hotel-Casino.h43310.Hotel-Information) > > [Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Bavarian-Inn-Of-Frankenmuth.h9809515.Hotel-Information) > > [Tulalip Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Tulalip-Resort-Casino.h2161524.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Angel Of The Winds Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Angel-Of-The-Winds-Casino-Resort.h9689970.Hotel-Information) > > [Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort and Players Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hogansburg-Hotels-Akwesasne-Mohawk-Casino-Resort.h6009138.Hotel-Information) > > [Semiahmoo Resort Golf & Spa, Trademark Collection by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Semiahmoo-Resort-Golf-Spa.h13986.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Harrah's Cherokee – A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.ca/Cherokee-Hotels-Harrahs-Cherokee-Casino-Resort.h13319510.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tipsy Pelican- The Best Place To Relax!
