Allison from Norfolk, VirginiaGreat House for Families
Donna K. from Washingtonville, NYThis is our 3rd year returning to this house and we will continue to rent this house if available. Exceptional views of the ocean, great for large family get togethers. Kitchen fully stocked, clean and welcoming. Walk to beach a little hard for older guests but otherwise perfect.
Wonderful, spacious home
Becky and Charley N. from Raleigh, NCThis is a wonderful, spacious and well appointed home. Our family of 15 had plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the cottage. I loved the large covered porches with nice, comfortable deck furniture. The kitchen was large with plenty of utensils, plates, pots and pans, etc. There are two refrigerators, one in the kitchen and one in the rec room. We used the rec room refrigerator for beverages. I loved the master bedroom and bathroom. It was spacious and had a beautiful view of the ocean. Having two outdoor hot and cold water showers was nice and we enjoyed the gas grill for several meals. The air conditioner cools effectively. The walkway to the beach was in good condition and really loved the extra deck at the end of the walkway right before you step down into the sand. The hot tub was nice on the lower level. You do not have an ocean view from the lower levels of the house but the view from the top living, kitchen area was wonderful due to the large windows that allowed a full view of the ocean. There are a lot of stairs in this house and it was ok for our athletic in shape family but if you have health issues this could be a problem as there are three sets of stairs. The adults and kids loved playing the video games in the rec room which had a comfortable couch, large screen smart tv and full bathroom on the same level. The large washer/dryer is also on this lower level . There are flat screen tvs in every bedroom and three large smart tvs in the house, one in the family room, one in the rec room and one in the master bedroom. Three of the queen bedrooms on the middle level had separate entrances to the ocean side middle deck and my adult kids loved this perk. Also the twin bed room had it's own balcony that faced the front side of the house. The kid room does not have outside access which was appreciated as we had small children in that bedroom.There is plenty of parking and there are two carports. The one recommendation I would make is to update the mattresses on the middle level with the 5 bedrooms. The king mattress in the master suite on the top level is still in good shape. I highly recommend this large house for families and look forward to returning in the future.
Beautiful Easter Week
Katie M from Baltimore, MDBeautiful house, great layout for our family. Gorgeous ocean views from the top deck and easy beach access. Kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to include brand new Tupperware. Game room on the bottom floor with an extra fridge was a plus for the kids to hang out. House is well maintained with new decking and nice outdoors furniture. Only suggestion would be a new mattress for the 2nd floor king bed, otherwise Ballahack was just perfect!
Manager's Response:
Thank you for your suggestion. The homeowner did confirm that mattress is newly replaced just a couple of seasons ago. We are sorry it was not to your comfort but glad that overall, you enjoyed your stay at Ballahack! We look forward to seeing you on your next Outer Banks vacation.
September 2018 Stay
Dan F. from WalkersvilleGreat house. Great kitchen, location, porches. The only thing Id change are the mattresses on the king and the two queens.
March 2018 Stay
Kaye R. from StauntonAwesome spot for everyone in our family! We loved staying here.
August 2017 Stay
Grace G. from SpringfieldThis was our 4th consecutive time to stay in this house and my 20th vacation in the OBX. We like the location, layout, open greatroom, and covered top deck. house was not cleaned as well and our towel sets weren't complete this time, but VR did send over the missing towels and a toaster oven, which we thought the house needed.
boardwalk to beach has a very splintery railing; there are torn screens on some windows. Most of the BH houses have a pool, but Ballahack does not. plus the beach has eroded so much since last summer that there is nowhere to set up for a group at high tide.
We have loved our family get togethers at Ballahack Cottage, but next year we will pick a house with a pool and hopefully easier beach access.
Manager's Response:
Thank you Grace for your feedback. I would like to take this opportunity to let you know we appreciate you staying with us for the 4th consecutive year in Ballahack Cottage, and apologize for the issues you have mentioned. Having stayed here over the years, I am sure you have seen the ebb and flow of the tides and sand on the beaches. Our coastline is a living entity and it is ever changing. The owner has addressed the decking and replaced what was needed. It was a pleasure speaking with your husband Mr. Garbe, and most importantly I am glad to hear you and your family overall had a great vacation. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
July 2017 Stay
Dru H. from New HartfordLocation was great. Space was as expected, roomy and bright. The kitchen is great. The ground floor room with fridge, sink, and foosball table was a great addition for us. We love that there are two outdoor showers too.
The house needs some reinvestment. Appliances, especially dishwasher (dishes require several rinses to be clean) and clothes washer, are at end of life. A garbage disposal would be a nice addition. Decks and walkway are algae-covered and aging. Had to have VR come out to pound down nailheads.
Manager's Response:
Thank you Dru for your feedback, we greatly appreciate it as does this homeowner. In fact, they have not only added a garbage disposal to the kitchen, but they have also had all decking that was in poor condition replaced. In addition to the needed routine maintenance items, they have also added some fun updates like the new video console gaming system in the rec room. It has 60 classic arcade games! The homeowners and Village Realty hope you come back and enjoy the home in the future!
R & R Getaway
Karyn C. from Chapel Hill, NC & Chicago, ILLocation, service & house were FANTASTIC!
IL family members first time OBX experience exceeded expectations and they are already planning another visit! Highly recommend this house...clean & well equipped!
June 2016 Stay
Wayne M. from ColumbiaWe have been visiting the Outer Banks for three-generation family vacations for 30 years. Ballahack Cottage, where we've now stayed twice, is our favorite beach house and Village Realty is our favorite realtor.
Unfortunately, I must advise you that we will not be returning to OBX until such time that North Carolina repeals the discriminatory anti-LGBT legislation enacted by the General Assembly earlier this year.

This is a fantastic house! Worth all the praise. Plenty of space, comfortable beds. Fully stocked kitchen. Beautiful ocean views from the deck and dune deck. We hope to return soon.
