Easter family weekend

Perfect house for our family weekend. Great location with all the extras especially the hot tub and bikes. Cleanliness was a 10 and owner was always quick to respond prior to trip. We had no issues at all from beginning to end.

In every direction you look, you can see water!

Island Haven is a clean, well-maintained home with a well-stocked kitchen. The water views from the decks are what make the place. It was so relaxing to sit on the upper decks and watch the sunset. The location is ideal on quiet Pond Island between Manteo and Nags Head. It was a quick trip in either direction to all the places we wanted to visit. Walking the dogs around the little island led to meeting several friendly neighbors (and their happy dogs).There is no private sound or canal access with the property. Which was no issue for us. The public access point on the island seems to be a bit run down. But if you want the beach feel with great views, but don't need (or want to pay high dollar for) private water access, this is the place for you!Britney was extremely accommodating and readily available when we had the inevitable issues with the code on the door (has anyone ever consistently gotten these things to work???). Her communication before the booking and instructions in the home were always clear and helpful.We look forward to returning to Island Haven for another beach getaway soon!

Great stay!

Property is very well maintained and in a great soundside location. Very clean, Kitchen stocked nicley with all appliances, beds are comfortable.Weather was a bit chilly, but I appreciate that the heat worked despite the very windy conditions at night! There is a very nice soundside dock down the street to use for fishing which was great for our small fam. Note that you will hear traffic/ construction noise going on outside the neighborhood. Not a bad thing, just an FYA for anyone coming down in the next few weeks.

Convenient location to experience OBX

Nice property, convenient to lots of shops, restaurants, attractions in Nags Head. Family loved the hot tub. My only complaint was the lack of back up basic supplies to last through the week (or at least a few days). Overall a great trip.

My family had a wonderful time on their Outer Banks vacation. The property was Excellent!! Island Haven was a beautiful property located on Pine Island. The beach was a 5 minute drive from the property which worked out good for my family because they could load up all their beach gear and drive right to the parking lot by Jennettes Pier, and only had to carry gear for a 50 yard walk. Trust me with my 2 grandsons and all their gear that was a God Send. The cottage has a well equipped kitchen with open space and all the amenities. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable. We, plan on coming back. I highly recommend Island Haven for an outstanding OBX Vacation. Steve and Lisa P.

Hard to Beat!

With comfortable beds, lots of space, amazing views, and much more to enjoy, it’s probably easier to say what we didn’t like about our stay—but nothing comes to mind! It was exactly what we were looking for during the off season, and the price couldn’t be beat. The house was cozy, conveniently located, and the neighborhood was quiet. Highly recommend. Thanks Britney and Tony for being great hosts!

Perfect, fun beach house

Island haven was fantastic! We loved the location, just a quick 5 minute drive to the beach but away from loud cars and didn’t feel like a super touristy spot. There were lots of fun games to play (cornhole, pool, etc). Overall it was clean and comfortable! The host was really responsive and accommodating as well which we appreciated!

As a family, we really enjoyed our time at this residence. The rooms are large, and the kitchen has all the amenities. They've planned every detail so that you can kick back and enjoy your trip.

Fantastic place to stay.

The house was beautiful, clean and very comfortable. The views of the Sound were out every window. I especially loved sitting on one of the many decks. The deck off the dining area had shade and even a gate to lock my dog on the deck with me. I was very impressed when arriving to find toilet paper in both bathrooms, paper towels and some dishwasher pods to make your arrival day easy. No need to rush to store on arrival if you forgot to pack these essentials on your first day. The owner was very responsive and quick to respond with any questions. They were very sweet to contact me immediately that my husband forgot his cell phone there. Thanks for a great vacation!
