The Natchez II - The Waterfront House on the Sound on Bells Island
10/10 Excellent
"This was a fantastic property with very helpful hosts. The view was amazing. I was originally concerned about being right on the corner with water all around and having younger kids, 6 and 9, but the property has a fully enclosed fence with a wire mesh in-between the wood posts. It was solid. The kitchen was by far the best stocked my wife and I have ever had with spices, the typical pots and pans, and an individual Keurig and coffee pot. We needed for nothing to prepare family meals. There were also plenty of trash bags which I've found tend to be sparse with rentals like these. Overall it was a fantastic family vacation and we would absolutely stay here again."
HOT TUB! Four bedroom home in the 4X4, Corolla, NC. A truly unique getaway!
10/10 Excellent
"This is a beautiful house. Brand new construction and very nice inside. The hot tub is also a pleasant surprise. The house is rather remote. Recommend that you have all of the groceries you need. It is about a 3 to 5 minute drive over the dunes to the beach. We saw wild horses and deer in the yard."
"Amazing location. A few bumps with getting in touch with the host/check in instructions, and the AC went out in the middle of the night, but luckily it was cool enough that we stayed comfortable. Very minimal kitchen supplies, and the closest store is a long way back, so be sure to bring your own coffee, ice, etc. Great porch, hot tub was great, and the beach is gorgeous."
4X4 only! Canal front. Ocean AND sound views! Decks and porches on all levels.

"Property and location are great. Phil, the owner, is fantastic. Our Fourth year at this property, and Phil has always kept it up to date with improvements and updates each year."
"Very clean and well stocked property. We enjoyed the seclusion along with a nice fire in the fire pit by the sound. We had horses visit most mornings on and around the cottage. Would definitely stay again."
"Tracy’s recommendations for things to do and directions about getting on and off the beach were great! (Definitely follow his guidance vs google maps which takes you over a more challenging dune). The house was amazing and fit our group of 14 phenomenally. The kitchen is well equipped for just about anything you may need. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub and cinema. The pool can get pretty sandy with the wind, but Tracy is very responsive if needed! Remember toiletries! We had kiddos with us and didn’t pack any so it made for an awkward first hour while some of them patiently waited for the Food Lion run before using the bathroom. Lots of sand toys and a few boogie boards which helped entertain everyone without having to lug things in. The horses love the backyard. We had rain the first couple of days and didn’t see any, but by the end the horses were in the yard several times a day. They can be curious so remember the 50 ft rule. The ability to disconnect and enjoy the simple things was unlike any other vacation we’ve taken. Even my teenagers were boogie boarding and flying kites. We spent hours on the beach with no one else within 1000ft of us! Highly recommend!"
Oceanfront with Private Beach Access & Wild Horses
10/10 Excellent
"The house description was accurate, everything that was said to be included along with the toiletries was there. Although i will say the charcoal grill was unable to be used as it was sort of rusty but everything else was perfect! Definitely saw many wild horses and it was a short walk to the beach!"
