30th birthday
I booked the house for my friend’s 30th birthday and we had a blast! The location was ideal, the property was clean. I loved that each bathroom was a good size and not cramped and the fact that the water got hot almost instantly when taking a shower and wasn’t impacted if we all took showers at the same time. The views were awesome. Definitely nice to wake up and see a beautiful sunrise from our decks.

Clean and Close to Everything
This house was very clean. It's a lot closer to the ocean than described which was a pleasant surprise. All but one bedroom had a private bathroom - another perk. Close to Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, restaurants, bait shops and both grocery stores (FL and Conners). Only downfall was the lack of kitchen essentials - only 2 silicone potholders and low quality pots/pans. We made the best of it and came prepared after reading other reviews. Again, it was very clean which is a sticking point for me.

The Perfect Location
We were in Buxton in Mid April, the weather was beautiful and the area is quiet then and less commercial than the northern part of the island. We enjoyed nice long walks near the lighthouse and the ferry ride to Ocracoke Island. The house was clean and the management addressed any concerns quickly. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub.
