Beautiful home which felt like home

Thank you so much for this fabulous house for my son and daughter in law to stay with their dog!! It is such a gem hidden but fabulous location. Sad to see new monster houses being built nearby, but it only makes the charm of this house that much better. They appreciated the bottle of wine and wanted me to thank you. We hope to see you again. We love Ocracoke.
