Rental was perfect for what we needed. Family of 4 with kids age 11/16. Quick and easy access to the beach. The outdoor shower with warm water was extra nice. Near a lifeguard but not crowded. Short walk on the beach to an ice cream stand (Arts Place/Winks) was awesome. Wifi worked great with all the kids electronics. Had enough kitchen equipment to warm up restaurant left-overs, cook mac&cheese, breakfast foods, and frozen pizza. Easy for door dash to find us. Most meals were eaten on the front or back deck. The dining and living room had comfortable furniture making nice gathering spaces.Location was a great jumping point for travel. North to the shops at Duck and parasailing, or South to First Flight Adventure Park at Nags Head. Quick access to groceries, pharmacies, and all the wonderful food in between.Not having a dishwasher or clothing washer/dryer was inconvenient but an easy compromise for the beach access. A small bottle of dawn and teamwork took care of us for 10 days. The wash house on Manteo has fast high capacity washers () and I was able to get mid-trip washing done in 1.5 hours. (No quarters, all digital).Turning left onto Croatan Hwy can be challenging. If needed, there is a stop light 2 streets North at Eckner (after Arts Place) or South a little ways at Kitty Hawk Rd (at the Black Pelican).We don't have fancy needs. Mostly to walk on the beach several times a day and eat good food. Would easily choose this property again.
