"Overall we had a great stay at Outside Over There. It was a great house for us for the week. Our only complaint was the dryer. It was not working when we arrived. We had to have maintenance come out twice to adjust the hose in the back and re-attach. Just know it will work, you need to pull the dryer out from the wall so that there is enough space for the hose. We would definitely stay here again. "

"The house has great spaces and was very clean. It is on a quiet street. We really enjoyed the outside shower and separate living spaces. The dryer does not work, which is problematic with beach towels and no linens provided. The vent has been patched with duck tape but at this point needs a significant repair. "

"We were delayed entering the house because of the weather and OIR was kind enough to extend our stay by delaying our first day. Unfortunately (again because of weather) we had to leave early so we wouldn't be stranded on the island but it was a nice house and we had a good time when we were there."

"Good stay - We had a good stay. It was a little hard to find to first day with it being tucked down the side road. we are looking to come back next year about the same time."

"Bed and pillow were uncomfortable and they have to get rid of those Teflon pans they are all scratched up and do not work well for cooking breakfast. The deck was nice to enjoy the nice fall breeze. We had beautiful weather and had a fun weekend thank you!"

"We love "Outside Over There", have stayed there 3 times. We were a bit disappointed though in a few things. The blinds on 2 doors were in very bad condition, we hung a sheet on one for privacy. A towel bar in the master bath was falling out of the wall, as it had been years ago. We were hoping since there were 2 filtered water coolers there, water was being delivered. And lastly the main bedroom's mattress was so squeaky and LOUD, very awkward, and chairs were broken on top deck and the entry deck sadly."

"Very nice, even with beach hazard warnings and a broken washing machine. Things happen, especially in hurricane season"

"Everything was great except the mattress on the upstairs bed…. Needs replacing made terrible noise every time you moved! "

"This was our second year coming and we love the island and look forward to doing it again next year! Our house was great other than the Wi-Fi to watch movies at night. Great location and a family feel! "

"Family of 7 adults - The place was very clean. We used all parts of the house and it was big enough for some privacy. Glad to have the big room for card and board games around the table. Suggest a golf cart for convenience. Great vacation! Dryer needs to be pulled forward to work better (kink in hose?)."

"This is a great vacation home. Everyone in our group was comfortable and enjoyed the place. The beds were comfy and the kitchen had everything we needed. The screened in porch was a favorite hangout spot in the evenings. The outside shower with hot water was great for rinsing off after a day at the beach. My only criticism is about the grill. If the grill is going to be listed as an amenity it needs to be maintained better. The grill is in sad shape and it took me close to an hour to clean it up and make it usable. It is in need of replacement and needs to be maintained better if it is going to be listed as a feature of the property."

"I enjoyed my stay. Overall, things were fine. The table was sticky and three of four lights were burned out in one of the bathrooms upon our arrival. Even so, I enjoyed our stay. I may have to do it again next year."

"Great stay! - Great times on a great little island!"

"Great quiet place to relax - Very nice property off the beaten path. The house has a very peaceful and pleasant setting. The only down side to this place is it’s a bit tight moving a boat and trailer around. Can’t go wrong though otherwise especially for the peace and quiet. Also being able to bring our dog was very important and appreciated."

"Spacious and clean - Overall, this is a lovely house. It is spacious and clean. I can tell the owners had guests in mind- there are books, games, DVD’s, and Roku. There are a ton of extra blankets. Kitchen is well stocked with cooking tools. Location with requests to beach and town is excellent. That said, the kitchen is TINY. Only one cool at a time. The porches are not very scenic as described. There is NO yard for the kids to play. And there are a LOT of stairs. Again, we loved our time there but wished we had known the above. 4.5 stars in my book!"

"5/5 - Clean, comfortable, everything in good working order, and a great spot. Hope to stay again!"

"Visited August 2020
Great Week!
Outside Over There was comfortable for us and had everything our family and 2 pets needed. I did feel like more effort could be put into cleaning and repair/maintenance. The area rugs especially need a good cleaning. We had one maintenance issue that was promptly taken care of. Overall, we had a wonderful week at Ocracoke and we will be back! Thanks, OIR for all you do to insure a great stay!"

"October 2018 Stay
We love visiting Ocracoke every year! This was our first time staying at Outside Over There and we couldnt be happier. The location of the house is in a great quiet area. There is enough parking for our 2 cars plus 2 golf carts! We love having the two separate floors so the adults can enjoy our quiet time, while the kids can play pirates downstairs. We would highly recommend anyone to stay here! This is our 2nd year coming for the Pirate Jamboree and hope to make this an annual family vacation!"
