This was our first stay at Big Red and we look forward to many more stays here in the future. We now understand and agree with the great reviews given. It is a great home with so many amenities. The location is very convenient, especially the deck on the beach!

Marilyn D. - Stayed: 5/16/2026

Absolutely perfect home for a relaxing and fun family vacation.

It’s a very nice home and well kept. Nice location with awesome deck located across from the home on the beach. Highly recommend.

Big Red is an awesome vacation rental! Everything you could possibly need is made available to you. The beds are comfortable, decor is lovely , and the kitchen is fully stocked.

If you rent this house you will be pleased. This is our 3rd time renting and will be renting again .

Kaye D. - Stayed: 11/1/2025

Fantastic house with comfortable beds, and everything you could possibly need.

Pamela P. - Stayed: 10/4/2025

Our home away from home! We’ve been going to Big Red for over 10 years…by far the cleanest house with guests comforts in mind! House now has 2 Mr Coffee makers and 1 large tank Keurig. A plethora of dishes and silverware and cook tools. Former guests have left toddler cups, toys for others to use. They’ve added an internet booster in the master bedroom which helps immensely—but internet access on the top outside deck is terrible so if you were planning to do online work during your vacay, you’ll need to be in the house. Highly recommend this home!

Floyd N. - Stayed: 8/30/2025

We had a great experience at Big Red. Loved the setup, the space, the location and all the amenities from the private beach pavilion and access to the pool and hot tub. Great for our adult kids and parents. All the good kitchen gear,

Stacey Royer - Stayed: 9/14/2024

Bring nothing! Everything is here but your clothes! Games, pool, cooking items, dishes, and an elevator are provided and the views are beyond gorgeous and free of obstruction. Our home away from home. Watch the dolphins from your deck. Relax in the pool and hot tub to top off your day on the easy-to-walk to the beach. Lounge on the beachfront deck. It’s all here!

Big Red is our home away from home…well appointed, plenty of space, comfy beds and plenty of seating. Kitchen has everything you need to manage meals for small or large group. Especially love 2 coffee pots and the added Keurig!! All were used! Whether a swim in the pool under the lights, a dip in the hot tub, or a stroll on the beach, Big Red has it all. The elevator is a bonus for us older folks!

Suzie C. - Stayed: 6/17/2023

We were very pleased with our recent stay at a Joe Lamb house in mid-March, 2023. We chose the house from online info and photos and we were not disappointed. The house was everything we had hoped for and made for a lovely gathering for our family visiting from Colorado for Spring Break. We were very pleased with every encounter we had with everyone at the Joe Lamb office. They were uniformly helpful and did their utmost to make our stay memorable. Thank you, and we will be back with you. You have lovely properties and you manage them well!

There isn't another house in Kitty Hawk that can beat this one. The beds are comfortable , the elevator is key and the pavilion is everything.

Jann Y. - Stayed: 8/27/2022

Lovely Property. The home was the most well equipped kitchen we have ever rented. Everything was perfect and the view amazing. And having the ice maker on the bottom level was a big plus.

Nancy A. - Stayed: 8/20/2022

We have been using Joe Lamb for our OBX rental needs for years and this was our 4th year at Big Red! It is an excellent property with everything you need for a great beach vacation!

Marcia R. - Stayed: 8/6/2022

Big Red was perfect for our family. We had family members up late and others early and we could never hear each other. The beach deck is great for lunch picnics

Beautiful home. Well-equipped kitchen. Lots of amenities. Love the private beach walkover. Favorite place we've stayed in all our years of visiting the OBX,

Big Red never disappoints. It's truly home away from home. It's our fourth time staying there and we have now stayed at spring break twice at New Years and our first time this summer. I never want to leave. You walk in and say I'm home. It's clean fully stocked kitchen very comfortable rooms atmosphere and view are spectacular. You can't go wrong with Big Red.

Big Red is a great house with the priceless bonus of the beach gazebo. The house meets all vacation needs and wants. We will be returning for year 13 at one of our favorite places

Stacey R. - Stayed: 9/21/2019

This home IS a home. Never disappointed! Well appointed, comfortable and with lots of popular amenities! Well maintained and provides easy and direct access to the beach...And the views!!! Spent every morning watching the sunrise...and looking for the dolphins to make their morning trek down to the pier area and swim back a bit later. Relaxing, enjoyable, and super comfy...we are 5 year repeaters and are booked for next year! Close to EVERYTHING!

Floyd N. - Stayed: 9/7/2019

Our third stay at BIG RED. Love it every time. Even though we lost time due to Dorian, it was a pleasant stay.

Mildred L. - Stayed: 8/31/2019

Kathy C. - Stayed: 8/24/2019

This is a wonderful home with an outstanding location. The Gazebo makes it very easy to get on and off the beach and a good place for the elderly to sit and relax and watch the grand kids play without having to transport over the sand. All in all a great vacation home with everything needed to make your stay a very enjoyable experience.

Big Red covers all the bases with amenities usually found only in much larger houses...direct oceanfront access and views, pool/hot tub, elevator, rec room, and one of the most well supplied kitchens I've seen. The house is clean and comfortable, and feels like home the minute you walk in.

Angela R. - Stayed: 5/25/2019

This house is amazing. The kitchen is very well stocked. The views are great and the oceanfront deck is wonderful. This is my family's second time staying here and Big Red is our favorite.
