Beautiful boat

My wife and I had never been to the Outer Banks before this trip. Staying on a boat was a great way to enjoy the area. Their boat is very clean and well located to enjoy much of what the area has to offer. Katherine and Dan were great hosts, recommending places to go and things to do. We would definitely stay again.

Exceeded our expectations

The boat had everything we needed, and then some. They say that location is everything and this was perfect. We enjoyed wandering around town, sampling what restaurants and shops had to offer. We enjoyed relaxing down below and having drinks and snacks on the fly bridge while we enjoyed the weather.Looking forward to returning. The hosts were great communicators.
