The host was very involved and was in contact quite a bit. They came and took the trash cans out and back up without anyone noticing. We loved that it was dog friendly but didn’t have the smell or hair from other animals. Great stay overall

I really enjoyed the week. The Internet wasn't working and I had to reach out to the provider for them to come fix it. The pool had a lot of dirt in it but the house was very clean on the inside.

Just ok
It was fine. Not the cleanest place I’ve ever stayed. We had to wash some of comforters before my kids would sleep in the beds cause they were gross. The area was great! We love Salvo just not this house so much. It has good potential if the cleaning was better.
My husband and I had a wonderful and restful week! We really enjoyed the hot tub for relaxing each evening. Was definitely different visiting the beach in the ‘off season’ but just what we needed to force us to relax and enjoy our time. The house was perfect! We cooked dinner two nights and breakfast every day, and had everything we needed. Unfortunately it was too cool to enjoy the pool…..but it was as nice to look at! Would definitely stay again!
The house location and house were great! The drive was long, so we were anxious to get into the house, check-in was 4pm, but we didn't get in until closer to 5pm - the rental agents were not helpful or friendly. The house itself could use some updating, but overall we loved our time in the Outer Banks! Thank you for sharing your home with us :)
Loved our visit. One issue: VRBO needs to be explicit about needing to bring your own bed linens and towels. Your description even tauts how your cleaning process makes sure towels are properly clean leading one to think they are included. We had to drive 1/2 hour to purchase bed linen and towels that we easily could have brought from home. Word to the wise

The house was roomy and the furnishings were suitable. There could be some updates made but generally a fine place to stay. The pool was fine but cold-it just opened this week and had not had a chance to heat up. Hot tub was good and worked fine. The house is right off the main highway and if you kept the windows open for the breeze it could get a little loud with the traffic.

Nice property
The house is very spacious and they did a good job with making sure you need basically everything you’ll need. The bedroom with bunk beds was pretty dirty, crumbs all over the top bunk which told me it probably wasn’t changed. One of the beds upstairs also had pee stains so we just bought blankets and pillows. Overall a really nice property just think they need to work on the cleaning aspect of it.

Lots and lots of dog hair abs one of children is allergic, broken furniture, flat hard bed
It's a beautiful house. Because of the weather we couldn't use the pool more than once. But enjoyed the hot tub a lot. Spacious enough for our big group too. This is our 3rd trip to BOX. First two time we stayed northern part of it. Staying at the south end is very different than that. Northern part is more commercial. Enjoy the nature more here. I give 4 star instead of 5 for location just because it's not on the beach. Beach is pretty close though. Will love to come back to this house. But next time will come in summer, not in April.
We had a great time! House could have been a bit cleaner only reason of saying this. There was dog fur still in our linens but the company was extremely fast on getting my wife and I new linens asap! Also grass was pretty long when we arrived. The. First full day the company called us to ask if everything was decent. We asked for the lawn to be mowed due to the long grass and again they had a company out asap. We would def recommend the company/ house otherwise

Nice property but needs improvements.
The home was nice and plenty of space. I recommend area rugs to get some sound control, very loud home you hear every footstep. The home was clean upon arrival except the floors so I would suggest more attention to the floors. Not a fan of bringing our own linens and towels. The beach wagon is broken and I called to get a replacement but no response. Overall a nice property but needs attention.
We loved our stay at Jake’s Wake! The house was clean. The pool and hot tub was awesome! The walk to the beach is a bit difficult if you have a bunch of stuff because it is all sand and up a pretty steep dune, but the road access is just a few miles down the road, and there is a nice boarded walkway. The house is nice, but could use some updates. There are new owners of the property and I think they have plans to do some updating. There are a lot of stairs, like most OBX homes, so if someone has limited walking ability it may not be the best option. The check in process was awesome! It was all done on line and there was no need to go to a management company location to pick up keys because it was a keyless entry. We really enjoyed our stay and would consider retiring in the future!
The house was beautifully dirty . Upon arrival I had to wash the blankets on the bed , the pillows an other blankets were thrown in the closets on the floor. Also there were used bars of soap an all the lamp light bulbs we had to replace. We were inconvenienced from the beginning an nothing was offered for compensation. We were are also evacuated the 3rd day of arrival after a 10 hour drive from New York again nothing offerd for compensation. The weather stayed well till Friday . My family an I missed out on our family vacation. WASTE OF MONEY AN TIME !!!!! Disappointed all around !!!
The house was clean. The view on the top deck was excellent. Short walk to the beach. The fenced in pool with a bit of grassy area was perfect for our dog. Loved the quiet neighborhood. We had a little rain one day so the sheltered hot tub was great. Can’t wait to back.
We couldn't find an ocean view. House was clean and spacious, lots of closets. Sunsets were amazing. The walk to beach was a bit long and difficult. Our stay was cut short with hurricane Ian coming at us but we did enjoy our stay. Our first time to OBX.
Nice property. Had a great time. The only problem was the lawn in the back, around the pool, was not mowed. We could not play some lawn games in that area because of that.
Beautiful sunrise day's on
beach , and sunsets on the sound in the evenings jacossie was awesome ,
quite refreshing to cool down in the pool for the ones brave enough to jump in lol , We even drove on the beach and fished it was a lot of fun , just a heads up though , there are requirements for the vehicles ,permit ,some basic safty equipment for the vehicle ,I purchased the annual one because I'm planning on coming back real soon. I've enjoyed the house plenty of room for my party
I've recommended it to my boss and friends
The house was beautiful, in a good location, very nice pool and hot tub. In the process of everything before our stay I was unsure of bringing our dog and had to change the lease multiple times. the deposit was instantly have back both time I changed my mind they answered my calls and question. super friendly wonderful people. We will see you next year

Great location
The location was great, and the amenities were enjoyed by all! Kids had a blast in the pool in between the beach and other activities. Would definitely go back.
As others have stated in their reviews, this house is not clean in general and the cleaning crew did not do their job to clean up from the previous tenant. There were dead bugs on the floor, crumbs on the counters, dirty throw rugs, items left by the prior occupants including a glass full of cigarette butts on the balcony railing. Also the broken furniture that others remarked about is still present even though there is brand new outdoor furniture on the upper balcony. That being said, the house was big enough to comfortably accommodate our large group of five adults and six children and we never felt cramped. It was wonderful to have our own pool and the hot tub. We tried to rent a golf cart but were told they are not allowed in this community. However, there is good proximity to the beach, perhaps a five minute walk. It could be a great house with a good cleaning job and some fresh paint on the walls.
There were several issues - overall cleanliness was poor very dirty - cockroaches,
Very dirty- cockroaches all over , pool light broken, exposed switch to pool light and flood light( dangerous) garbage left from previous rent tenant - overall over priced for many issues
Beautiful home in a great location. Pool was very well maintained. Cleaning Service left a dirty rug and microwave behind when we arrived. Otherwise everything was clean.
