We loved having enough bedrooms and bathrooms for every one. We loved the collection of VHS/DVD’s available for when it rained and late nights. Really fun blasts from the past. We loved the big windows in the living room, the large deck, we loved having the fully stocked kitchen and large refrigerator, as well as long dining table to fit all 10 of us. This house gave everyone enough space to be able to have their own space, which is important with teenagers.

We really enjoyed our stay. There were a few small issues day 1 that maintenance responded to immediately. They were quick and friendly. The house it's self had a good layout and decent bedding. The water was hot for the shower so that was great. Water pressure was decent. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook all week.

We came here for my daughter’s Spring Break week from Virginia as a little family getaway before going to my sister-in-laws beach rental later in the week. I went in not expecting much from my last minute booking for this property. This home exceeded my expectations. The house itself is livaoi

For a house with 6 people, it was very spacious, no one felt crowded or restricted. Outdoor shower and grill are awesome perks of the house. The level of cleanliness is top notch. I think this maybe our annual go to place

The location was great and the house was fine. If you are staying more than 2 or 3 days make sure to bring or be prepared to buy paper towels, garbage bags, dishwashing soap, etc

The views and sunsets were amazing! Especially watching it from the hot tub on the top deck! Spacious for many people and my dogs were happy to be able to run around the deck. Close to the beach! We enjoyed our stay as a family of 6 + 2 dogs

This home was perfect for our vacation. Very comfortable for our group of 7. Notable things are the spacious living and dining area and easy check in and out process. Its a short walk to the beach and a short drive to the grocery store. Would recommend for any larger groups, and would definitely stay here again my self.

The home was large and great location . There was flooding in the driveway, which is no fault of the owner . It had rained a lot the previous week . So getting in and out of the house was challenging.

The cleanliness and the accommodations this house provided were awesome, I expected to find signs of previous tenants with pets, damaged and stained furniture, broken fixtures for the rental rate of the home, but nope everything was clean and worked as it should. Very impressed and will definitely book again.

Plenty of rooms and bathrooms! Hot tub on top deck was perfect. Big living room with lots of space and the kitchen was fully loaded with pretty much everything you need if you like cooking for the group. Big dinning room table. Lots of decks. Decks galore! Even a screened in section to keep the bugs out. You can walk to the beach or just drive across the street and park at ramp 38 if you’re feeling lazy. Definitely recommend!!! Thanks guys!

The three floors, many decks, and great backyard made it a great vacation house for our group of 9 and dogs. Loved the location and beaches. Great town and OBX vacation. Definitely recommend this fun house and great layout!

As Good As It Gets is a wonderful choice for a vacation stay. Parking is a bit of a problem, and when it rained the driveway was flooded. It was a bit of a hike to the beach for us 70 year olds and it was very hot this week, but we survived. The house is roomy - plenty of seating for guests and a perfect bedroom set up for the group. Three bedrooms with baths was very appreciated. Sorry there was no game room. The kitchen has so many utensils and plenty of pots, pans, dishes, etc. I would prefer not having the hot tub in the sun, but it was a great hot tub. We brought our own small charcoal grill, but there is one provided in the backyard. Saw 2 cockroaches which were relocated to the back yard. Nice yard with green grass. I would come back again.

This was a great vacation spot for our family and friends. Plenty of space for all of us and the deck was our favorite spot to relax! Short walk to the beach and just enough places to eat and stores around to have options.

Additionally, the refrigerator has been repaired and we are sorry for any inconvenience. We enjoyed having you as our guest and we hope to host you again.

Had everything we needed, close to grocery, gas, fishing, and many other conveniences. Very well stocked cupboards too. Clean, quiet area, just perfect for our family!

The house is great. It has been our go to for over 8 years. We may never go back due to how badly Vacasa manages things and the crazy high fees plus poor customer service.

Michael L. -

Thank you for your review, Michael. We're happy to hear you enjoyed our home. We apologize that you weren't fond of our services. We regret that we don't have more information, as we take feedback seriously and always work to improve if it's provided. Thank you for staying with us. We hope to have another opportunity to host you.

Wonderful house, super clean, comfy beds and really awesome views on both sides of the property! Lots of stars out with a great view of them from the well kept hot tub!

Holly T. -

The kitchen was well stocked. They had tons of games, movies and books. It was only a short walk to the beach and the beach was not crowded. You could watch the sunset form the balcony. Food lion, super wings, ace hardware, duck donuts….were all close by. The driveway was flooded for a few days due to a heavy storm. The beds were not super comfortable, but overall it was a great house at a great location.

Overall a great house that met the needs of 10 (7 adults, 3 kids) for 5 nights. Some additional information that would have been helpful to know about Hatteras Realty rentals that was not provided until we arrived at our rental: “We will supply you with some starter items: a roll of toilet paper in each bathroom, a roll of paper towels and 2 kitchen trash bags. You'll need to bring all additional paper products, soaps.”

The house was very spacious for all 6 of us and our dog. The family/kitchen area was spacious and was the perfect gathering place for meals and family games on the large dining table. We enjoyed the top deck for sunrises and sunsets. The bedrooms had plenty of space and the beds were comfortable. The two master bedrooms had big walk-in closets. The deck off the second level was larger than we expected. The ocean-side beach was about a five-minute walk away and easy to get to. The sound-side beach was about a five-minute drive south. It was nice to have both options. This house was one of the best vacation houses we’ve ever rented for our family!

Wow, what a special vacation. We left 4 days ago from the Outer Banks and we are already planning for next years return. This home is just as beautiful as the ad. The windows let in the best light I have ever had in a home. Then when you open them well, to add the breeze, the salt air and the sounds of wind and ocean the feeling of relaxation fills your soul. If you want a perfect vacation you truly cannot go wrong.

This house was very well stocked in the kitchen and just a short walk to beach. Food lion just down the road a bit. And Duck Donuts :-) Loved the outside hot tub on the top deck. We needed a pet friendly place and this was clean and nice. The only minor complaint is that the place needs an updated decor- the pictures are faded and there is a lot of older decor that is very dusty. all the games/books/dvds are from the 80s and 90s but we liked that. but this is minor. J with a renovated interior on the decor, this place is 5+ star!!! The neighbors next door were nice and quiet. We will return I feel sure.

As far south as you can go before reaching the Hatteras Nat'l Seashore. Beach - 3 minute walk, beautiful, blue water. Nice sunset views to the west over the sound. AC worked great. All was very clean. Everything you need in a beach rental.

My 3 teens (15, 17, 19) and I really enjoyed our stay at It's As Good As It Gets. It is spacious and comfortable. The beds were comfortable. Kitchen well stocked with pots/pans/knives/etc. We all loved the choice of movies for family movie night. We did have some initial difficulty figuring out how to get the controllers to turn the TV, DVD player on (even with 3 teens!). It would have been helpful to have the remotes labeled and instructions. the HDMI cable had to be plugged into a different port. Everything great after that! Comfortable places to curl up and read. Decor is homey. Thank you to the owners and VRBO/Hatteras for making our stay easy.

It was a great location, far enough away from the center of town for less traffic, yet close enough to the shopping areas. A short walk away to a beach entrance and a quiet neighborhood. The house was well stocked with appliances & kitchen utensils, plus it came with linens. We didn't have any issues with anything to do with the house. It was a very relaxing & worry free stay.

We were a little skeptical when we read the previous reviews, but the home seemed to be just what we were looking for. 3 bedroom suites, plus two additional bedrooms for our multigenerational family grouping of 10. So we came from 600-1500 miles to gather for a week. Weather was perfect, and we cooked 4 meals in utilizing all 6 cookie sheets for one meal and the extra large crock pot for another enjoying local fresh seafood for three of the meals (po-boys, grouper with basil mint tomato topper, and homemade pasta and sauce with fresh seafood) and a down-home beef and Amish noodles with "smashed" potatoes to commemorate our Midwest upbringing. Not to mention Pops Raw Bar in Buxton was a short 10-minute drive (some ate there 3 times!) making our eat out nights a no-brainer! Only complaints were the tiny soap provided (bring your own) and ONE DISH TOWEL (really? for a week's stay with a kitchen like that?--but we knew that so we brought more), and one tiny bottle of dish soap. The commercial ice machine was wonderful, supplying the coolers to the beach, and the proximity to the drive-on beach access made our rental of the Expedition worth every penny as we set up our day camp on the beach every day. The walk to the beach was also a short trip for those not doing set-up/break-down. Caught a few tiny fish, enjoyed the breakers and the short trip to the sound one day, and played games at night. As Good As It Gets is properly named!
