Amazing stay at Walters Watch! We went to Ocracoke the week of June 20-27 and Walters Watch was absolutely perfect for us. The house is bright, wide open, clean, and really well-built and solid. Here is why we loved it: * Great Layout: Every bedroom has its own bathroom, which is awesome. There’s also an upstairs den that the kids really enjoyed hanging out in. * The Mudroom: They thought of all the little things. The downstairs mudroom right off the parking area made it so easy to drop our beach gear, keeping the sand outside instead of tracking it into the house. All the modern appliances worked perfectly, too. * Perfect Location: It’s right down the street from Ocracoke Coffee Co., which is a really cool spot with great music, coffee and smoothies. It's also super close to the school's big playground and basketball court, and the kids loved running over there every day to play. It was convenient to get everywhere, but because the house is set back a bit from the road, it stays quiet and peaceful away from the main foot and bike traffic. It was exactly what we wanted to be able to unplug and get away. It was really wonderful!

Thank you, Michelle, for the wonderful review. We’re glad DC51: Walter's Watch was exactly what you wanted — the en-suite bedrooms, upstairs den, and handy mudroom sound like they made the week easy and sand-free. It’s great the appliances worked well and that the location near Ocracoke Coffee Co. and the playground was so convenient while still feeling quiet and peaceful. We appreciate you choosing Ocracoke Island Realty and hope to welcome you back.
