Recent Dare County - Outer Banks guest reviews

We had a wonderful time on our two week vacation. The condo was clean, neat and had every amenity that we needed. Staff communication was awesome with multiple follow-up text and reminders that came in very handy. They were quick to respond with the couple questions that I had. I would highly recommend!

The pool was fantastic and emmaculate. The house was great but it could really use dressers in the rooms instead of old tv stands. Or even just luggage stands for the closet. The wifi went out when we were there but the company was fantastic in finding the property and informing us what was going on even though we did not own the property. TV remotes were all over the place and had no batteries. These were minor things and did not take away from a great stay. Vacasa has never disappointed on a clean, bug free house. A few repairs needed are the basement sliding door (super hard to open amd close), the gate to the pool (it did not latch well and the hinges need repair), and a few slats missing on the fence (being a dog property, fence slats are necessary for the pup to sit outside with you). Even directly on the road, the property is far enough back that it did not feel like it and overall a lovely stay.

Juste devant la plage et magnifique vue sur le sound sur le balcon. Le lit était très confortable et propre. Nous aurions apprécié qu’il y ait plus de produits de nettoyage fournis. Nous avons apprécié notre séjour dans les Outer Banks!
