Wonderful Family Trip!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Southern Paws was the perfect house for our large family group. The walk to the beach wasn't too far and the beach on our side of the pier was much less crowded. The house accommodated our large group of 5 families and allowed for a great week of celebration of our dad's 80th as well as some other celebrations! We loved walking next door for coffee, ice cream & the escape room & even though it's not on the ocean, we could see the ocean from the upper levels of the house which just added to our enjoyment of the space! I would recommend this house for any large group or family group!

Family Beach Week

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Southern Paws was a great vacation rental. The house was ready early (an added plus) and extremely clean! We have always wanted to stay in Southern Shores due to close proximity to crossing the Wright Bridge. We found the location very centrally located for journeys north and south. I was concerned about the traffic on the beach road since this rental is located across the road but found that motorists stop at the crosswalks to allow safe crossing. We had two dogs with us and the fenced dog area was an added plus! The Theater Room was great fun for Family Movie Night too. Beach Realty responded to all texts for maintenance. We had a big storm on Monday afternoon that turned flooded the pool and turned it green. They sent a pool tech the next morning to “fix” it. My only suggestion - longer summer hours for the Realtor all days of the week or someone who monitors texts and responds after hours for needs like our pool issue. We were concerned the problem would damage the pump as no water was entering or leaving the pool but the pump was still attempting to run. This rental had everything we needed for a wonderful beach week! We would love to rent it again but it is going to be managed by a different realtor and pricing is increasing too much.

Our family reunion was so much more enjoyable by being able to all stay together. Southern Paws was exactly as described in the VRBO app. It was clean, with a well stocked kitchen,close to the beach and restaurants . The beds were so comfortable and the rec room was awesome for the teenagers in our group!We had an issue with the pool on the 1 st day of our vacation. The property manager responded quickly to my message and had the problem fixed that day, despite it being a Sunday.We would definitely rent this beautiful home again!

We appreciated the amount of king sized beds that allowed all adults to have one as well as multiple beds for kids. The pool and hot tub area were very nice, we liked that it had locks on all the gates since we brought young children. Great location, loved being able to walk to the beach and ice cream. Overall the house was exactly what I anticipated from the photos and would stay there again.

I had a great time with my Adult children and grandchildren. The house was great you could all be together or you had separate spaces if you didn’t. I would rent again. Perfect location, the road was a little busy. Short walk to the ocean.

Pleasant Thanksgiving

The house was a great place to host friends and family for Thanksgiving. Large entertaining space and large kitchen made it very easy for friends and family to move around and not have to be in separate rooms on Thanksgiving Day.

Awesome house and great time

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There was 14 of us and plenty of space for everyone. Even the kids enjoyed having their "own" room and space. House was very nice and clean. We vacuumed and swept daily also to help out with the sand, which is unavoidable. Overall, everyone had a great time and pretty much spent most of the days at the beach, which is just a short walk. Though traffic is heavy, drivers always stopped to let us cross at the crosswalk. Thanks for a very nice, enjoyable week!

Great family vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A great house for a large family. There are thirteen of us and there was plenty of room for everyone. A very convenient location as there is a pizza shop, an ice cream shop and a restaurant right behind it. The pool was a blessing when it got too hot at the beach and the game room came in handy when it was too hot to sit by the pool. We’d recommend this house for a large group.

The house overall was perfect size with plenty of room to spread out for our large family. We loved everything about it except the way the yard is set up, when we got heavy rains it all ran into the pool and we were unable to use it the last two days of our trip. The pool company was amazing and did all they could to help us but said it was unsafe to swim in because of all the yard debris and chemicals they had to use. Other than that when we could use the pool it was perfect!

Extended Family Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great family vacation experience with 10 adults and 3 children. The house was very spacious, with ample bedrooms AND bathrooms! The pool was great and location to the beach was a manageable walk. The house had many amenities (pool, pool table, ping pong etc) that everyone enjoyed. Had some minor issues with no iron/broken door handle that were corrected in very acceptable timing. The house could use some minor updating (i.e paint in worn areas) and you have to realize that you are on a relatively high traffic road particularly on the weekends. Overall, very happy with the experience and we all had a great week!

Southern Paws Review OBX

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great week at Southern Paws.The roomy house was clean and well appointed for our family of eight adults and ten children. The pool and game room were a hit. The beach access was a short walk down the road and we found drivers very considerate when crossing. You’ll want a parent with the kids, but you would anyway at the beach. Southern Paws is separated by large bushes from a nearby area with restaurants and ice cream establishments among others but still felt quite private to us. Definitely a great choice for our OBX vacation!
