About this property
Semi-Oceanfront Dog Friendly w/ Sun Deck, Grill, Smart TVs. Tide Up in Comfort!
SEMI-OCEANFRONT Rodanthe — Ocean Dr. — Listen ... that’s the ocean reminding you from steps away that while the surf is close, the heart of your vacation is right here in the cozy surroundings of TIDE UP. Bring your family to this four-bedroom/two-bath cottage and discover just what you need to trace the tides of your own story.
No need to leave your four-legged family members at home; two dogs are welcome. They’ll love to take long walks along the sand. You’ll enjoy the fish-cleaning table under the house and the outdoor shower to keep the sand outside. Inside, enjoy the convenience of one-level living, encompassing an open great room, dining and kitchen area, and screened-in porch to bring everyone together. A Smart TV provides the focal point in the great room, with plenty of comfy seating to curl up and watch your favorite shows. A nicely equipped kitchen has everything you need to prep and serve meals at the six-person dining table, or at the picnic table on the shaded portion of the expansive deck where you can also take in the views from the Built to Last® chairs. Like what you see? Climb the steps to the upper-level deck and enjoy even more breathtaking views.

On one side of the common area there’s an ocean view queen with a Smart TV that shares a hallway bathroom with a room with two bunkbeds. On the other side is a room with two singles and an ocean view king, both featuring Smart TVs, that share another bathroom.

The location is perfect. Beautiful views of the ocean. The check in process was easy. The beds were very comfortable. The house could use some decor as it is very plain.
When we checked in, everything was very clean. We went to grill when we got there because it was lunch time but there was no propane tank for the grill. We called the company and apparently we have to go pick up the propane tank as it is not provided. It was free though. Not a huge deal as the office was 5 minutes away. But after driving 10 hours we just wanted to relax and not go back out.
We went to do some laundry and the laundry door was locked. The key pad on the door was dead. There was a key to unlock the key pad since it was dead so we did that. But the doorknob itself was locked inside so we could not get in. Someone from the company came and checked it out. He had a pin to unlock the door knob for us. But since there was only one key to the laundry room and the company didn’t have an extra copy the guy took the key to copy it and said he would bring it back but never did.
On Wednesday, we went out in the morning and came back around dinner time to the bathroom floor flooded. We called and someone came to check it out. There is a crack in the toilet. He said a guy would come replace it tomorrow & turned off water. No one came. I called Thursday afternoon and no one to knew about the issue. They sent another guy who said he would come fix it friday. 48 hours with 1 toilet for 5 people. Not okay.
