Very spacious house, with outdoor areas on every level. The sleep masks and sound machines were a lovely touch. Highly recommend!

Epic Family Gathering

Stayed September 2024

We had a relaxing and fun time at this house. There are so many small conveniences around every corner, so it feels like home away from home. The location was a short walk to the beach and close to shops and restaurants. The heated pool and hot tub were so nice, and the amount of pool floats and kids toys made it so enjoyable. The very best part was not having to bring a crib, high chair, baby monitor, outlet covers, etc because the owner thought of everything. We had such a nice time and would love to go back again.

Wonderful Week

Stayed September 2024

This home was beautiful and everything we hoped it would be. We had a very short walk to the beach but they provide wagons to take your beach things with you. This house had everything we could need for the beach and in the kitchen. The pool was clean and a great option for us on the windy days we couldn’t get in the ocean. Shops and food are really close so that’s another plus! I rate this home 10/10.

This was a perfect family and pet friendly home. It is safe, quiet, and close to the beach. We loved the decor, cleanliness, layout, pool, and breeze off the top deck.

This was our family's second time renting this home! Plenty of space for a family of 15! The kitchen was just remodeled and the floors were all redone! It was beautiful. Megan is always super attentive and very easy to communicate with. House has everything you need! We will be back!

Return visit even better than the first!

Stayed August 2024

We were all impressed with the details throughout the home. From the very well stocked kitchen to the sound machine in the bedrooms to the night lights in the bathrooms. It met all our needs and exceeded our needs with regards to making sure the home was safe for the littlest family members. They had outlet covers, a crib, two high chairs which got used and also gates for the stairs! Highly impressed. Saving the best for last - our host told us she would let us know if we could access the house earlier and she ACTUALLY DID let us know! Great home Megan!

Perfect for family of all ages

Family beach vacation

Stayed July 2024

We had an absolutely wonderful family vacation at Go Your Own Wave! To begin, Megan’s guidebook was extremely thorough and helpful when getting ready for our trip. We also quickly realized how great the location of the house was— very close to groceries, shopping, and most importantly- the beach. We enjoyed the roomy, comfortable bedrooms that were well-spaced out to accommodate our large, extended family. The kitchen is completely equipped with everything we needed to prepare meals. However, our most favorite part of the house was the pool area and beach/pool gear closet. It had absolutely everything we needed to enjoy a sunny, comfortable, and lovely family vacation.

Go Your Own Wave didn’t disappoint !! We had the best time in Corolla. From the pool to the beach. It’s a quick walk and the house is beautiful. Our fav coffee spot is the top deck off the kitchen. The kitchen is top notch and has everything you need to cook like you are in your own home.

Family Vacation 2024

Stayed June 2024

My family and I just enjoyed the best vacation ever at Go Your Wave. The house is beautiful and has everything anyone could need. Megan is so friendly and helpful and answered any questions I had. We are definitely starting a family tradition of vacationing at OBX and staying at Go Your Own Wave again. It’s the perfect setting for fun, relaxation, and beautiful memory making!! 🩷

Amazing Vacation

Stayed June 2024

Beautifully decorated home for a relaxing family vacation. There were a dozen of us. We had plenty of room for sleeping, eating, and gathering. The home is supplied with EVERYTHING you would need or want. The owners are very thoughtful and very communicative which was appreciated. We prepared 3 meals daily and were grateful for a kitchen very well stocked. The boardwalk for the beach access is visible from the front yard. The pool water temperature was perfect making the pool area very enjoyable. We would recommend Go Your Own Wave to all :)

This home is beautiful and the pictures are true to what the home looks like in person.  The kitchen is very well stocked, the only thing that was needed that we didn't find was kitchen wash clothes to wipe counters, etc.

If you have small children/infants, this home had everything that we needed (cribs, pack n' play, high chairs, booster chair, infant gates, monitors, sound machines, etc.)  A lot less to pack and take from home!

Megan was WONDERFUL to work with.  She answered many questions not only in regards to the home, but where we could find grocery stores, recommendations for photographers, what to see and do while on vacation, bike rentals, you name it, she was always willing to share her knowledge and experience!  And I always had a response within 24 hours.

We created many memories here and would not hesitate to stay here again!

Megan was wonderful to work with and their lovely home provided everything we could ask for and more. The kitchen is newly remodeled and well stocked as was the rest of the house. The house was perfect for our visit. We were able to enjoy the heated pool and the short walk to the beach every day during our stay. Highly recommend Go Your Own Wave!

Excellent home with great amenities

Stayed May 2024

This property is prettier than the pictures show. There was so much space for everyone in our party. The pool was perfectly warmed for our chilly April visit. The kitchen was out of this world full of everything you would need for cooking, the aqua back splash was so pretty. Megan checked in and was available if needed.

Beautiful Beach Oasis

Stayed April 2024

Not sure how to even capture this experience appropriately in this review…GO YOUR OWN WAVE was AMAZING.  I rely heavily on reviews as I book destinations for my family so I want to be very detailed in sharing my family’s stay at this property.  First—the pictures are EXACTLY as the home appears in reality (they were taken incredibly recently and reflect the condition and styling of the home).  Second—the location is so convenient.  We were able to walk within five minutes to the Coral Beach Access stairs and bike to restaurants and shops within 10 minutes of biking time.  And because I can’t have this review be pages long—I will leave you with our thoughts on the amenities of the property.  The beds were new and very comfortable, the towels were plush and plentiful, every kitchen tool was present, so many beach items were available to us to use (wagons, chairs, coolers, toys), and the heated pool and hot tub just put our experience over the top.   You cannot go wrong booking this property and my family looks forward to coming back!

We loved our latest stay at Go Your Own Wave! The host, Megan, was great to work with and made us feel as though this was our home away from home. The house is well-maintained and stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our Thanksgiving. We noticed many upgrades since our last visit two years ago. Our favorite was the pool heater! The water was so warm, and the kids and adults had hours of fun splashing around. We also loved that it was just a short drive to the 4x4 beaches, so we could air down and see the wild horses. Many happy memories made. We look forward to returning!

Great Thanksgiving Memories

Stayed November 2023

Great OBX location for families. Everything we needed for two kids under 4 with gates and crib. Pool was fun for the family and lots of pool/beach toys. Plenty of room for our family with room to spare.

This house was a great find for our friend group. Multiple floors, all with attached bathrooms so everyone could have their own space. A great spot if you have babies as they are equip with a good amount of baby related items. The best pool closet, we recommend!

Professional, Clean, would definitely come back!

Stayed August 2023

The place was plenty big to accommodate our group and had a beautiful deck and screened in porch that I enjoyed. The pool was excellent and the proximity to the beach was exactly as listed. It was very close to the public beach access and a short walk. We had a wonderful time on our first trip to Corolla in the Outer Banks. Megan was very easy to communicate with via the Vrbo app.

Great place/great location

Stayed August 2023

Go Your Own Wave was a fantastic property for our two families. We had more than enough space and everything was exactly as shown in pictures and described. All our questions were answered in less than 24 hours, everything was in working order which made our trip very relaxing! We would love to come back again next year.

Exactly what we needed

Go Your Own Wave has everything you need to have a relaxing and enjoyable vacation. The home, pool, and hot tub are well maintained with everything you need to enjoy your stay as well as enjoying days on the beach. The location is quiet and the public access to the beach is a short walk. Communication with the owner was fantastic from booking to checkout. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here!
