Testimonials

July 2010
It was a perfect vacation! The house is in excellent shape, especially now that the owner has remodeled it some but still keeping the original old charm. I love the location (Howard St) as it certainly brings back fond memories of Ocracoke in the 1950s. When we had a maintenance problem, someone was there within a few hours and fixed it quickly and thoroughly. Your website has made it extremely easy to book online and everything went smoothly. Everything we needed (except sheets and towels of course) was in the house and the new TVs and other additions are marvelous. I truly felt like I was a guest in someone's home and they gave me excellent hospitality! Thank you so much for a great vacation!
