Extraordinary Rental!

My wife and I hosted our son's family (4 boys ages4-8). This property was IDEAL-both in its features and location. Easy walk to beach access, beautiful-large-and well maintained pool, and lots of desirable extras like beach chairs, beach cart, pool toys, etc. The owners have done a wonderful job of continuously updating spaces, furnishings, etc. Crows nest deck was also a cool feature to enjoy sunsets and see the ocean. Very clean throughout and well stocked kitchen-virtually everything you need. If I had 10 thumbs they would all be up.Excellent experience with rental company as well (advance communication, check in, etc)

Great trip!!

You can tell the owners really care for their house! Super clean and updated. We instantly felt comfortable as soon as we walked in. The house is in a perfect location to walk to the beach or into town. We can’t wait to come back!

First OBX Vacation

This was our first visit to the Outer Banks. The house was updated and clean as was the pool. The kitchen had just been remodeled and had just about anything you could possibly need. The bathrooms were also newer. We appreciated the little details in the house that reminded you that you were on a beach vacation. The beach access was also less than a 5 minute walk. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone looking to vacation in Duck.

Manager's Response

Thank you for your review! We are glad you enjoyed the home and your time in the Outer Banks. We hope to welcome you back to the beach very soon!

We definitely want to come back to this same house next year! Easy walk to beach and into town. The pool is amazing! Plenty of room in the house to take quiet breaks but also to gather for fun and games. Love the crows nest view for sunrise and sunset!

Pristine Home!

This home was recently updated and was pristine! It was also decorated for the beach with lovely warm touches. We arrived and there was not a spec of sand to be found, orderly and had everything you need for a great stay. Walking to the beach was a breeze and you can walk to the shops in Duck. Pool area was clean amd comfortable. We stayed in early June and would suggest giving guests an option to pay to heat the pool. It was a cool week and a warm pool would have been lovely. There is a pool heater and would have loved the option to pay to use it. You won’t be disappointed in this lovely home!

Manager's Response

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are glad to hear that the home met your expectations and you enjoyed your vacation! We hope to welcome you back to the beach very soon!

Second Time

This was our second time staying at this house and we loved it as much as the first time. Close to the beach and shops and had everything we needed for six adults and two children. A wonderful time was had by all.

Great!!! Beautiful weather. We stayed at the house in 2018 and couldn't wait to come back. Kids love the pool.

Manager's Response

Thanks Jennifer for leaving a review from your recent stay at Schooner Rather Than Later! It sounds like you and your family are making life long memories at this lovely cottage. Nothing helps more during these hot summer day than a dip in the pool after a long day playing in the surf at the beach. We look forward to seeing you at the beach again in 2020 with Kitty Hawk Rentals.

Schooner Rather Than Later Review

We have stayed at Schooner Ridge before and knew we wanted to stay again. We had spotted Schooner Rather Than Later on our previous visit. It was everything that we had hoped for. Perfect size for our family. Good location to the beach. Big private pool! We’ll be staying there again.

Manager's Response

We are so happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed your stay! A great guest experience is our top priority and we will also let the owner know how much you loved the home! We can't wait to welcome you back to the Outer Banks!

We'll Be Back

I don't know where to start. It was the best stay we have had. The house had everything we needed. Close to the beach and not a long walk to shops. We took two small children (4 and 2) and there were pool toys and beach toys for them and a cart to take umbrellas and chairs to the beach. Nice pool. The house had everything we needed and was very clean and spacious. We all decided that this will be where we stay from now on. I would absolutely recommend it.

Manager's Response

Great place for your family vacation

Perfect location, just a few steps away from the beach with great pool (sun all day, fantastic). Perfect also from inside - the house is super cosey and charmy, the bedrooms are nice and comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked with new pots and pans and the house and pool was in very clean condition!

Manager's Response

"Great Place for your Family Vacation" is certainly a perfect review for any owner's property and any vacation management company to receive. This house is new to our rental program this year and our guests are loving it for exactly the reasons you related. The owners thought a lot about how to furnish and equip the house for their guests and this will please them so much to know that all their efforts and thoughts are so graciously received. Please join Kitty Hawk Rentals at "Schooner Rather Than Later" for many more vacations in the future.
