This is a cozy cottage in a great neighborhood. We appreciated all the trees. And it is close to the beach. The only negative is the outdoor furniture is falling apart.

Our comfortable stay with 4 to 6 adults

We enjoyed our stay at Sparrow's Rest. For our stay, we were just two adult couples for most of the time with 3 couples for just one overnight--with 2 couples sharing the 2nd fl bathroom.
We only had two problems. We were missing two sets of towels for the master bedroom when we arrived but after reporting that via text, the missing towels were delivered and left on the bench in the "garage" area. We also were very frustrated by the lack of instructions on how to get anything on the TV. We were unable to figure out which combination of the multiple remotes would allow to access the Spectrum TV cable service. We had to wait until the next day for one of the customer service reps from Beach Realty to come help. And it took him 10-15 minutes to figure it out as well.
On the positive side, we appreciated the gas grill, the 2 zone air conditioning, and the beach chairs and the cart to help take stuff on the trek to the beach.
We found everything we needed in the kitchen but one suggestion would be to get some wine glasses that can fit in the dishwasher, maybe stemlesss.

Manager's Response

George, we appreciate you taking the time to send in your review on Sparrow's Rest! We are so happy you had a nice stay, aside from the issues with the TV! We look forward to hosting you again on your next Outer Banks vacation!

Wonderful Cottage / Wonderful Location

This was our first time staying in Duck. In the past our family has stayed in Nags Head around mile post 9. I am beyond pleased that we chose Sparrows Rest. We were very close to the beach and the community pool was beautiful. The cottage was lovely and perfect for our family of 4. The house was clean, well appointed and convenient to everything we needed. Thank you.

Manager's Response

Family Summer Vacation

We had a great stay at Sparrows Rest. Loved the neighborhood. Very quaint, peaceful setting. The layout of the house worked well for our family of four. One thing I would note is the house has 2.5 baths, not 3. We did see a few small spiders, tiny black ants, and killed one large roach. I do think if the property was sprayed it would resolve the issue. I do think the outside of the property couid use some TLC, pressure washing, cleaning the spider webs on the stairs, etc. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would consider staying at the property again.

Manager's Response

Thank you for the review Sue! This house advertises on our website as 2.5 baths, so we are very sorry for any confusion! We are so glad your family was able to get comfortable in Sparrow's Rest! We hope to see you again soon!

Review for 7/30/22 - 8/6/22 for Sparrows Rest

We loved having access to the bikes and the proximity to both the ocean and the sound (dock for Sanderling residents just across main OBX road from house).

Only downsides were some mildew in ceiling of common room and ants/bugs -- both probably caused by shady yard.

Wonderful Beach Home

We really enjoyed Sparrow's Rest. It is a beautiful and updated home just a short walk to the beach, which was less populated than other areas outside of Sanderling. I love the aesthetic of the home's interior decorations, and the multiple decks to enjoy.

Excellent House- Loved it!

Our experience at Sparrow's Rest was awesome. This was the first time we rented a NON Oceanfront property. I was originally concerned that the walk to the beach would discourage us from going out as much but that was not the case. It was NOT a long walk and in fact the walk was something we looked forward to. The shade was awesome and the neighborhood was incredible for walking and riding our bikes. There was also PLENTY of sun at the property even though there are trees to shade the outside area. The deck was great and it was honestly the first time we were actually able to enjoy a deck at the beach, because OceanFront is so HOT that you have to go in sooner due to overheating! This was perfect. I would say that the futon area should not be considered a separate sleeping area, as there is NO divider between that area and the master bedroom. It is just like a sitting area part of the MBR. But, we brought a room divider with us and it worked great. The bikes available worked, but they were quite rusty and one chain broke while we rode. There are SO many chairs and boogie boards that come with this house, you really would not have to bring any of your own. SO CLEAN and basically no bugs or spiders (which is always a problem for me). Overall, our stay was one of the BEST we have ever had in Duck. Thank you so much for a great house!
