OH07: Merry Winds

The best feeling stepping out of the car at Merry Winds! The house is so welcoming and inviting, and the view is incredible. We had a wonderful week crabbing, fishing dolphin watching, shelling, kite flying, boogie boarding and just recharging and unwinding. Most of those things we could do without even leaving the house. The location is ideal for maximizing your beach experience at the Outer Banks.You can tell the owners really take pride in their home. We love it here - already booked again for next year!

This is our fourth year at Merry Winds. There is something very special about this place...from its beachfront location right down to its charming interior.

Three generations vacation together very comfortably here. The views are magnificent - sunrises over the ocean and sunsets featuring Currituck Lighthouse. Our coffee even tastes better sipped by the ocean. The large upper living space is perfect for kids to play as they look out at the beach below. It is so fun to watch their excitement as planes or dolphins pass on through. The gentle waves of the ocean lull them to sleep. They are able to enjoy full days at the beach with the house being right there (every parent's dream).

We love that this house is conveniently located close to the wild horse beaches, Historic Corolla Village, Currituck Lighthouse, the public access pier and Timbuck II (for the shoppers in the house). There is something for everyone. We never run out of things to do.

Each year the owners make one improvement to their home.
