Renting this property was very easy as is all with VRBO. However, when I asked a question and was back on the site, I was confused regarding a different name of the house and several different pictures missing from the original. I was notified that the Village Realty corp had taken over management of the property. Emails were slow in response but once we got into the house, a phone call was all that was needed. They were very responsive.
I would not give this house above 3 stars for cleanliness since it was not as clean as every other house we have stayed in the OBX. The bathroom sink was still dirty with dead bug, and hairs. The toilet seats looked dirty underneath but just stained apparently. The surface cleaning of this house was just that, very superficial. The tops of the tables, counters were clean but any table that had shelves or lower surfaces were dusty, sandy and/or crumby.
While a cleaner was sent over with an hour of my complaint, she “feather dusted” the tables and did clean wherever I showed her. She was very sweet and accommodating. The management offered to have the entire house cleaned again the next day but since all our things were already in the house, I turned the offer down.
Another thing of note is that all the beds were not made up with sheets. The instructions did say that bunk beds were not made up but my daughter slept in a queen all week before realizing there was no sheet on the mattress cover.
The kitchen floor needed a good scrubbing as well. White socks turned black in a few minutes.
Perhaps the new management needs to get their cleaning service up to par or hire new workers, they did ask for a review so I will let them know.
Overall, the house is quaint, the backyard pool area is lovely. There is plenty of mugs, dishes, a dual coffeemaker etc.
The location is secluded with a beautiful golf course view. We had a wedding located at a house on the beach so we spent time there and did not get to use the shuttle or other club facilities.
