Sadly there were issues with a bathroom door not locking, a bedroom door not shutting, another bathroom door sticking shut and not opening without GREAT effort and we were told that the homeowners did not care. The freezer was difficult to open from day one, as it would stick shut and on one occasion we had to call Joe lamb because we could not get to our food which we intended to cook for a meal. So we spent our week wrestling with these issues. Not the end of the world but definitely put a damper on our vacation. We've been, annually, visiting as a family, the Outer Banks for over 20 years and we've used Joe Lamb probably for half of those. We've come to trust them and actually look for houses that they manage & often return to the same home. But, needless to say, we will never ever return to this home again.

Attractively decorated with a great view of the ocean. The ramp was great in bringing groceries and suitcases in to and out of the unit.

Love everything about this house. The location, the ramp, the decks and chairs, the layout's privacy, and the living area's openness.

We love the location. The house is beautiful. And the full ramp to the back of the house is a life saver for us.

There's not much to dislike about "Sandcastle." There is plenty of common space, the kitchen is well stocked and the ramp is especially suited to our group. And, the views are stunning from the large picture windows.
