Jun 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Truly a Castle by the Sea The property was clean, easily accessible, and well-appointed. It is a beautiful home and welcomes visitors like it's their own. Our only wish was for a walkway over the dunes to the beach, but that has nothing to do with this winderful property. It is a fantastic place to stay, and the owner is more than helpful. I recommend it to anyone neddung a large home in OBX. ##### Bob C.

Fred, you are awesome and have set the bar high (this was our first VRBO rental.) Enjoy the ocean, the hot tub, the space- open concept, the soft sheets and the fully loaded kitchen. Wow. By the way, we’re not even home yet but already miss the laid back Rodanthe ❤️ ##### Michelle B.

You get the feeling you are in a private retreat. The house is perfect for a large family. It was so nice to have so many bedrooms and the bathrooms were the perfect size and location for all. Swimming pool was a great plus. Fred was very helpful and just minutes away. We rented a golf cart for a few days which was fun for everyone and very helpful but not necessary. Thanks for a great stay! ##### Diane M. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Gregory B.

This was by far the best vacation we have had in a long time, typically go to the gulf but decided to change it up. The house was awesome, there was a hot tub was not expecting, short walk to the beach and pier. Fred (owner) was mowing grass made sure to let us know if we needed anything to let him know. Would definitely recommend this property PERFECT everything. ##### Kenny C. Stayed 7 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terry E. Apr 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Castle by the Sea Enjoyed our stay so much. The house was clean and lacked nothing. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. We were a party of 9 and we had room for anything anyone wanted to do. The hot tub and pool were an extra added bonus. Loved sitting on the deck and looking at the ocean as the sun came up. Only a short walk to the beach, which we had to ourselves. If we needed anything we would call Fred would respond immediately. (Like when we locked ourselves out of the house🤣) Would definitely book this property again. Fred and Sharon were great hosts. ##### Terry E.

First time vacationing in Outer Banks. Fred and Sharon have a beautiful house with numerous nooks in which one can choose to relax. They have stocked the house with almost everything that one could possibly need. Views are excellent and the beach is just a short walk away. Hope to return again! ##### Dale S.
