Duneridge Estates 10

We had a great time in this house. It is huge and can easily accommodate 2-3 families. The kitchen was very nice and the fridge was huge. The pool and hot tub were clean and clear. We did not have any issues with bugs in the house. We had some minor issues that were repaired within 24 hours( kitchen drawer broken, some door handles fell off, some nail pops on the decking). The dishwasher was broken when we arrived. We were warned and they provided paper plates. It was fixed within 2 days. The previous renters left us some dirty and wet plates stacked in the cabinet. The dune top covered deck was great. The beach here is wide and fairly empty most of the time. Basement would be great for little kids. They can’t get to the pool without coming upstairs. On the other hand if there was a fire there is only one exit, up the stairs. Minor issues include checking regularly for nail pops on the decking and trimming back the thorny vines on the beach walk. Also, the oven needs to be cleaned.

This was our first experience ocean front. We have been coming to the outerbanks for 24 years and has always stayed in Duck. We really like the location of the house and being on the beach. Loved the Pool . The Master bedroom upstair, beautiful. Master bedroom second floor, also very nice. Village Realty was great, they responded quickly to any problems. With all this being said we will not rent this house again. The rails on deck are very loose ,all decking floor boards are coming up. I stepped on nail heads that were out of the boards. The shrubs,steps and walking area were over grown with sicker vines, that we cut out so babies would not get cut. There was no access outside from basement, which is not safe. The rooms downstairs only had one access to bathroom and out of the bedroom, which was walking through someone else's room. (so odd). Ants were horrible inside and out , we lost food in the cabinet from this. The windows were dirty when we got here and one bedroom had an old open bar of soap in shower.
