"The owner of the home had the thermostat locked at 72 degrees as well as being enrolled in the utility company's energy saving program, which occasionally increased the temp to 73 degrees. This was way too warm for our family. We keep our thermostat much lower than that at our own home, especially at night. When on vacation, we want our home cool. The owner left a note above the thermostat explaining that they tried to give variability in the past and it didn't work out, so now they lock the temperature. It was really frustrating and made for very uncomfortable sleeping the three nights we were there. Temperature regulation is very important and personal. If an owner is going to lock a thermostat, that information needs to be posted on the listing. I would not have selected this home if I had this information. Our family travels quite a bit and we have stayed in 50 plus homes over the years, and we have never experienced this. Now I know I have to confirm the thermostat is not locked prior to booking my next home, especially with OIR. "

"My husband and I stayed in SkyWatch 11 days this month. It was nice. The home is in a quiet area, lots of privacy!! It has everything in it you will need for your stay, maybe bring more linens. We got to meet the owner when a new sofa was delivered. Very nice people. As always we had a wonderful time on the island 🏝 been going since early 80s!!"

"Enjoyed Skywatch and all the windows and incoming light. One of the nicest houses we've stayed in over our 10 or more Ocracoke vacations. A veggie cleaning brush in the kitchen would be a big plus. The old dvd/vcr units not connected and no cables available could/should be discarded. "
