Horseplay Stay

The house met all of our expectations and more. Horses under our balcony, dolphins jumping and the roaring of the ocean - couldn't get any better. Great days on the beach and having the pool/hot tub was a bonus as well. There was plenty of room for all 11 of us to be together, as well as places for everyone to have alone time. Great vacation!

OBX family celebration

The house has enough rooms for our family of 12. The view was gorgeous and loved having my morning coffee and looking out over the ocean. We loved seeing the wild horses in the backyard and on rhe beach. We loved the private pool and spa. I’m not sure if the sheets were changed in the room with the 4 beds as there were crumbs on the sheets when the kids went to bed our first night. Other than that the house was pretty clean.

We had a family of 10; there was space for everyone. Looking forward to more vacations in the years to come.

Despite weather from tropical storm, we had beach time every day, loads of fun, and loved the layout and everything about this house. In fact, we are booking it again in 2025. Also, Laura was FANTASTIC from day one in communication, service, and professionalism.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The entire family enjoyed Horseplay very much. There is plenty of room for our family of 11. Plenty of bedrooms and common area to make all of us comfortable. This is the 2nd time we've stay here in the past 5 years. This house is however starting to show wear and tear and could use some general maintenance. We had an issue with not having adequate ice. A commercial ice machine would be very helpful. We had an issue with the pump quitting and had to be repaired. A handle in the 1st floor bathroom was off the shower. The front of the a drawer in the kitchen came off and needs repaired.

Great house and location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an awesome time with the whole family. This house is an easy walk over the dune to the beach, and being about 3 miles from the end of the road it's the perfect balance of not too much beach driving, but still remote enough to have lots of space on the beach. Driving on the beach was a fun novelty. The house itself has so many full bathrooms! And the top floor is great being completely open concept with great views. We had a great stay and highly recommend for anyone wanting a more remote beach trip, but still close enough where going into town for shopping or ice cream isn't too much of a hassle.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had the entire family with us for the week. There was so much space escape from each other and big enough space for when we wanted to hang out together. Loved the location. We really loved seeing the wild horses roaming around. I'm pretty sure we saw at least 4 of them a day. We had a mom and her baby greet us on the patio when we arrived. So neat!

The Best Location

We have now stayed in Corova twice and this location was just the right distance based on the time it takes to get back to the main road. The house was clean with multiple unobstructed views of the ocean. The bedroom set-up was perfect for our family and the two dishwashers were definitely a plus. We will be staying here again.
