10 / 10Outstanding·Feb 2026
The folks who manage Forbes Fever are unbelievably competent and kind. Ronni from Rentals on the Ocean called us a few days ahead of our scheduled arrival to warn us about a winter storm that was forecast to arrive on our check-in day. She let us come down early and check in without charging us any extra. Then another storm was forecast for our departure day and so we departed two days early and Ronni gave us a refund for that, even though we told her it wasn't necessary since we arrived early. Incredible empathy and kindness. The place was fantastic - old school Nags Head, baby. Yet all the modern conveniences one expects on the OBX in 2026.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2026
We loved the house. It had so much room for all of us to spread out if we wanted, and a fabulous den for us to all gather together too. The location gave us access to everything; all the places we wanted to go. We had a wonderful stay. Miss Ronni was fantastic to work with to get the arrangements taken care of! We absolutely loved it!
8 / 10Excellent·Dec 2025
The host does a good job of maintaining the property. No problems to report, making for an easy and comfortable stay.
8 / 10Excellent·Dec 2025
Had a great stay and your property. Home was very accommodating to a party of 11. Kitchen was small but well stacked with anything you needed. The one towel per person did not think was a great idea. Location was fantastic and home was clean upon our arrival. The outdoor porches in front and back had beautiful composite decking, as well as there outdoor dining tables. We stayed 4 nights and had zero issues. That’s always a plus. I would recommend staying here and would stay again myself.
