First time Outer Banks

Kaptain’s Treasurer is a beautiful vacation home. Our family appreciated how well thought out the property is for vacation hopes and needs. The 4x4 access only property was a new experience and for first time OBX vacation, this was a full committed experience. The daily observation of the horses was a breathtaking sight. Wonderful family time.

A great time!

We had a great time! Properly was in perfect proximity to the beach and after we learned the ropes of the 4x4 beach driving, we loved it. We had considered driving AWD vehicles and were relieved we decided to rent 4x4. For anyone flying into Norwalk we rented a Jeep Wrangler from Marquis off TURO and would 100% recommend. I’ll try to link it. Thanks again! Check out this car on Turo!

I was looking to do something different and I got it.

The house was a good location.As on prior places we have stayed it is going to be a lil tuff on the elderly ones as far as steps.We are used to that.Coming in on peak high tide was a complete eye opener for the first time , driving 8 miles on the beach.Next day I was good to go.House was cool, Horses were cool and the weather was nice.You will need to make very good preparations unless you want to travel back to town everyday.Plenty of sunscreen and bug spray and you might have to remove a pile of horse$&@@“:.Just saying.Would go back🤘

Great family trip

This vacation house was everything we were looking for this year. We had easy access to the beach a nice pool to relax in and a hot tub for the evenings. The 3rd floor was a great gathering spot for everyone and fit us all when it was time to eat. We realized a few days into the trip that the drying wasn’t drying the towels/clothes very fast and within 2 days the super nice pool/handy man came with a brand new dryer. Laura and David were amazing! We had a wonderful week!

Beach

Our family ranged in age from 63 to 6 months. 4 adult couples and 4 kids. Starting with the con’s: Not many though. The house has no gas grill. Problem is the charcoal grill is 3 floors down. So inconvenient. Pots n pans in kitchen we’re from 1980’s!!! Bring a sauté pan cuz your eggs are gonna stick! Now the pro’s: house is roomy and tons of bathrooms. Even one outside! Pools were great and hot tub was a nice one. Best part was the 2 second ride to beach! Or 5 min walk to beach. Ice at the fire station was a blessing. Also, we went into town but airing tires up and down is not fun. Especially when the lines are long!!!

Post Covid Family Escape

Our experience at this home was nothing short of wonderful. We enjoyed every minute at this property. The beach is a short walk over a hill away everything worked very well around the house. The only challenge with this property is driving to it and driving away from it. Driving on the beach and up the sand dune hill can be a bit challenging which should only be done at low tide! Also, leaving the property was a particular challenge as one has to not only deal with driving on sand they also have to leave the property and go home!

Beautiful property in an ideal location

This was the perfect pandemic getaway for our family. The property was even better than it appeared in the listing and was just a short walk from the beach. The sunroom, pool, and hot tub made our stay absolutely perfect. The property manager was very responsive to our questions and concerns. We will definitely stay here again if we have the opportunity.

1st time on 4x4 beach

Have been coming to OBX all of my life but had never stayed farther north than Duck so was curious/nervous to how staying on the 4x4 beach would be. The convenience of not having to unpack my truck all week was great. Just wake up, drive 200 yds and relax. The house was great - clean and had plenty of space. Property managers were quick with responses to my questions before we came down and I didn’t need them at all during the week. Great trip!!

Beautiful holiday house

Our family of 5 and another family of 4 had an amazing holiday at Kaptain’s Treasure. The house is beautifully decorated and laid out very well. We had 4 teenagers and a tween with us. Everyone had enough space to have alone time when they wanted it. We were all able to hang out and play games or watch movies in comfort. The pool was a great addition on our lazy mornings when we didn’t want to rush to the beach. The proximity to beach from the house was ideal. We could walk down easily and the view from the top floor was lovely. We had a great two weeks at Kaptian’s Treasure and look forward to a return trip.
