Beautiful beach house, right on the ocean with great access. The living room room has floor to vaulted windows with a wonderful view. Sleeping layout works well for at least two families. The kitchen is small but well laid out. Great property, would rent again!

The views in this home are to die for. In addition, it is well stocked, nicely furnished, spotlessly cleaned, spacious and convenient to the ferry and attractions. The storage and outdoor shower underneath are great. Beach access was very easy. We would stay here again and again.

The setting of this home is phenomenal! Right on the ocean, near the ferry terminal and museums. The views from the great room and deck were mesmerizing. Easy beach access, well stocked kitchen, plenty of board games, great supply of linens and paper products. We really hope to have the opportunity to stay here again.

A few days away
This house was exactly what we needed for several days away. Beautiful view of the beach, sunrise and sunset. Easy access to the beach. Well equipped kitchen and games. Will book again.

Beautiful house with all the amenities. All rooms are a decent size, the balcony doors on the master bedroom are a cool addition. From the pictures I thought the day bed was outside of a couple bedrooms, but it is a separate room right beside the kitchen with a half bath. Plenty of kitchen gadgets for any on site cooking. The deck furniture is all relatively new and very nice. We will be staying here again.

Great stay overall!!! Had an issue with the lock getting into the house that the team was quickly available to fix. FYI for a Sunday start with the check in time of 5 PM, the office closes at 6 PM so would recommend getting to the house before the office staff leaves.

Great family time at the beach
Our family had a wonderful and relaxing time at Recess. Plenty of room, love the bedroom configuration, and outside deck. Especially liked the easy and level walking path to the beach. Risky Business is a great fish store just a couple of minutes away. Overall, great vacation with the children and grandchildren. Hope to come again next year.

Breathtaking views
If you are looking for a house with a view you cannot possibly get any better than this! We would definitely stay here again. As a matter of fact we’ve already checked the calendar but have found that the house is completely booked through October of this year and from April to October next year. The ONLY negative comment I could make is that the bed in the master bedroom was not comfortable.

Thank you for your review, Terri. We regret that the bed was not suitable for your party and appreciate this feedback as an area to improve upon in the future. Its great to hear that you enjoyed your stay and we cant wait to host you again soon!

Great stay!
We came down to Hatteras from Maine for a family wedding. 2 families stayed in this house and it was very comfortable! Great location close to beach and quick drive to store/etc. the listing said a propane grill was provided- it was not present when we arrived. But within an hour a loaner grill was delivered along with extra towels we requested. It was a quick and favorable response! My only complaints are the late check in having smalll children and several bedrooms were missing blinds. We made it work, but that should probably be addressed soon!

We came down with Covid 2 days before our scheduled trip. I called customer service and they advised me not to go to the property as I could spread it to the Vacasa workers. When I asked about any possible refund I was told no. I wasn't offered any reparations at all.

Despite the fact we were held up for two days,
(due to Rt12 flooding), The five days we had were amazing. The house was in great shape and the view of the ocean was perfect. The location allowed to walk out and fish the days we were not able to drive on. This was a great rental. Looking forward to renting it again next year! Thank you for letting us rent your property.
