Recent Southern Shores guest reviews

We had such a wonderful stay and will absolutely be back! The house was perfect for our family of 8, there was plenty of space for everyone to spread out and feel comfortable without ever feeling crowded. It was also so well decorated and truly felt like a home away from home. We especially loved how dog-friendly the property was, which made traveling with our pups so easy! The walk to the beach was super easy and convenient, and having 8 beach chairs provided was such a nice touch and one less thing we had to worry about bringing. We also loved being able to ride bikes around the area and spend time on the screened-in porch, sitting out there listening to the thunderstorms was one of our favorite parts of the trip! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed for cooking meals at the house, and overall the property really had everything we could have asked for for a relaxing family beach vacation. We had the best week and are already looking forward to coming back!

We had a wonderful stay here! The home is beautiful. Great views and plenty of space for a family to enjoy a vacation. Plenty of amenities, impressive game collection too! Great location with a walk to the beach. Hot tub and Elevator are a plus! Process was easy from start to finish.

Very nice property in a great location. Walking distance to Duck, to the beach and more. Excellent management and would definitely try to return for another stay on our next visit to the Outer Banks.
