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!
