Great for a big group

Clean, spacious property. We were 19 people, half kids and half adults, and the house was ideal. 2 living spaces and a massive dining table that could seat us all comfortably. Only thing we were not expecting is that the pool referenced is at the nearby beach recreation area, and the house comes with entry passes to the beach but there’s an additional fee to use the pool.

Good vacation

We had a great time staying there. It was a struggle finding good homes that allowed a larger group of people in, and this home was a great fit for us.The most important part was that the hostess was a great person and was always there if we needed anything.

This was a gorgeous, spacious vacation spot for our large family. The amenities were comparable to a 4 star hotel. Perfect for family meals (inside or on the spacious deck) and group games. The owner was very responsive and helpful with questions before and during the stay.

Class Reunion Stay

Stayed here for a college reunion with a few other couples. The house was spacious and extremely well stocked. Beds were comfortable and the location was beautiful with many of us either going for a run along the water or walking to the nearby park. Katie was superbly responsive and friendly. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely do so again!

A beautiful home!

Absolutely loved staying here. Katie was super helpful and my group had an amazing time. The house is plenty big for big groups. While my group was supposed to be 16, we only had 8 but it felt even more special! Everyone had their own rooms & thoroughly enjoyed their time. Thank you for being an incredible host, Katie!

Great family gathering house

We were a family of ten with 6 adults and 4 children ages 3-7. The house was well stocked and lacked nothing. Beach access was a mile away and beach passes were great. The kids loved the town playground and Mitchell College’s ice cream was a hit. The house was spacious and beds were comfortable.

SUCH A GREAT TIME

My partner and I had our bridal parties stay for the weekend for our wedding in Deep River. Knowing that all our favorite people had a place to stay and celebrate with us was such a great peace of mind. Katie's home was beautiful and offered everything we needed for an unforgettable weekend. I would say there the only thing that was different than we expected in the listing was the size of the backyard. All in all we had a wonderful time and would highly recommend Katie's home to stay in for any family/friends getaway.
