Canal Daze is definitely the retreat we were looking for. The check in and check out process was a breeze and the hosts were prompt responders. The house was clean and spacious. While there's plenty to do in the OBX, you don't have to leave this house to have a fun relaxing time. From the pool table, to ping pong, to the movie room, to the hot tub, to the firepit and fishing outside, you're never in want of finding something to do. We will definitely be back!

We absolutely loved our stay at Canal Daze! The house was beautifully decorated, comfortable and in a great location. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you need to prepare meals and was very well organized. The game room kept our kids entertained and the hot tub was a hit with everyone. The backyard was the perfect place to fish off the dock during the day and have a glass of wine in the evening. The house also has a garage full of everything you need for a day at the beach or time on the water at the house. We would definitely recommend for families or groups of friends, and would absolutely stay again! Loved it!

We’ve never thought much of vacationing on the coast during the off-season, but staying at this house over New Years definitely changed our minds! Between the super-fun game room, awesome array of equipment for outdoor activities, and the well-kept hot tub and outdoor fire pit, we never ran out of things to do and most definitely had a blast! The owner was very responsive and provided everything we could’ve needed and… it was really great that we were able to bring our dogs. Awesome time had by all! Happy New Year and Thank you!

Everything was super clean and very well organized on arrival. We enjoyed the location on the canal and we were able to fish, kayak, and hang out in the backyard. When we did go to the beach, the beach cart, towels, chairs, umbrellas, toys, and coolers were amazing! Unfortunately for us the weather didn’t cooperate so the beach didn’t happen as much as we hoped, but the house had plenty to do and we also found lots of historical sites close by. We enjoyed the hot tub, game room, and even played OBX-Opoly. Don’t overpack, this house has everything you need and it’s all labeled and easy to find! The house was plenty big for all 10 of us that stayed (ages 6-71) and we enjoyed the cute decorations as well as the amenities. This was by far the most well-stocked beach house we have ever rented. If we go back to OBX, we will definitely stay here again! Thanks Aaron and Jamie for your clear and frequent communication and for sharing your house!

Canal Daze is an amazing home for families, especially with children. The hosts have thought of everything to keep you entertained and if you didnt want to you would never have to leave the home! A gameroom with a pool table, ping pong table, fooseball and basketball game. Movie room with lots of movies to choose from and tons of table games. The outdoor area did not disappoint! Everyone enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boards and especially the hot tub. The kitchen was well stocked with all the items you will need. We grilled several nights and although their was a fire pit, we were so busy we didnt even have a chance to use it! The home is beautifully decorated. We enjoyed the community beach several times as well as the pool. Aaron was a pleasure to work with and any situation we ran into, he was quick to respond. The only downside were the stairs. If you are old like me you will want to minimize your up and down trips! Overall a great experience!

Our stay in Kill Devil Hills was amazing! This waterfront property was the perfect house to accommodate our group of 9 and our golden retriever for the week. The house was clean and well-decorated. We enjoyed the many amenities that it offered... fishing off the dock, kayaks, paddle boards, game room, hot tub, bikes, bar area, and YMCA passes. The kitchen was well stocked and labeled, and the house conveniently offered sheets and towels. Every room, porch, and deck was well thought out, offering plenty of comfy dining and seating areas. The beach was a short drive, and we found it easy to access public parking. Aaron responded quickly to any questions and offered helpful solutions. We would absolutely stay here again!

This was a perfect Thanksgiving get away for our family (10 of us ages 11-76) Not only was it a quiet location, it had something for everyone to do….game room, fishing, crabbing from the dock, kayaking, biking..to name a few and it was close to the beach for great kite flying. There was office space for those who needed to work, an amazingly well equipped kitchen and indoor space for all. The owner quickly responded to any questions or concerns that we had. It was all we hoped it would be!

First and most importantly, Aaron and Jamie are amazing host. From before our stay and even after, they were both available to ask questions and answer within a timely manner, were available when needed, and they both made sure the experience we had in Canal Daze was nothing but the best. To say they went above and beyond is an understatement. Our family is truly appreciative of all the extras you honestly didn’t have to do. Canal Daze has everything one could possibly need in a vacation home and then some. Kayaks and paddle boards, fire pit, game room, theatre room, bikes, and toys, family board games, and so much more it was evident that family time was just as important to them as it is to us. Access to the community pool and playground, as well as the sound beach, was an added bonus. The house is one of our favorites that we’ve stayed in for many reasons - the location, the cleanliness (I really hope our Goldens didn’t leave too much hair), the quietness, the beauty in the home and around it, the family atmosphere, and again, the amazing people who own it. Even with some unexpected bumps in the roads, which happens in life, it was perfect. We all thank you for the wonderful experience you allowed our family to have.

We had a great stay at Canal Daze and are hoping for another time to stay longer. Property has plenty of space, a fun game room and was convenient to numerous area highlights. The dog friendly house had a fenced backyard (glad our dog isn't a swimmer 😂), the kids loved the bunk bed room and we loved the extra sun room off the master bedroom. Only recommendation is to have the cleaners do a deep clean throughout as many surfaces are pretty dusty.

Our daughter and son-in-law live in Kill Devil Hills. My husband and I have rented homes many times throughout the years. This visit was quite special for us. It was our granddaughter's first birthday and all of our kids and their families were able to join us. This was the first time in over 10 years we have been able to have everyone in the same house! This house just made our trip. So much for everyone to do. Our 13- and 11-year-old grandsons told us that this was the best house and the best vacation that they've had! Thank you, Aaron and Jamie, for having this very special house available on VRBO! It was Super nice, and we had everything that we ever needed. We have used many realtors for rent search in the past and NONE of the homes have been as equipped, cleaned and tastefully decorated as this one. Highly recommend!

Booking and communication was great. The house location is away from the busy spots but just a short drive to beaches. The home has a great layout, is beautifully decorated and very clean. Kitchen had hot chocolate supplies and a coffee bar. The house was decorated for Christmas…very nice touch. We really enjoyed the sun room connected to the master bedroom. The huge downstairs game room was one of the reasons we booked and it did not disappoint. Love that the hot tub is inside for those rainy days. Neighborhood was quiet and I really like that it’s a gated community. We enjoyed several restaurants close by the house. It was too cold to take advantage of the kayaks, and waterfront but we had an amazing stay!

This property was perfect for a winter getaway. With the game room, media room and hot tub there was plenty to enjoy inside the home. There are lots of cozy places to play games or read a book and so much fun to be had while making smores by the firepit. The house and property was very clean and kept up. The beds were comfortable. Everything in the kitchen was easy to find and it was well stocked. I absolutely would recommend this property and hope to stay here again in the future.

I recently traveled to OBX with my family and family friends. There were 13 of us in all, with kids ranging from 10-17. Our stay exceeded expectation! The house is beautiful and is as pictured. It was clean and comfortable. There is so much to do in the house itself. Everyone enjoyed the game room, and the canal was so much fun to kayak, paddle board and catch crabs on. There was plenty of space to spread out so that everyone could enjoy what they wanted to do, whether it was nap, read a book, watch a movie or play games. The beds were very comfortable. There were two large tables for dining which worked out perfectly for a large group. As far as location, it was about a 10 minute drive to the ocean itself. There are plenty of public access parking lots. This was never an issue. We rented bikes and even rode them to the beach one morning. There are bike lanes everywhere. The sound beach and community pool are about a 1.5 mile away. We rode our bikes there several times, but it is a very quick car ride. The entire community was very friendly. The Wright Bros Memorial is just down the road, and there are so many stores and restaurants just a short car ride away. Communication with the owners was great, and they checked in to make sure all was well. We had no issues during our stay. I highly recommend this property!

Canal Daze was a perfect fit for our family of 8. The house had plenty of space for everyone and offered lots of different areas for quiet time and entertainment. The game room was a lot of fun and the backyard space was lovely for hanging out with a variety of activities. The house is about ten minutes to the beach and restaurants and shopping but with proper planning that was not a big deal. We very much enjoyed our stay and would certainly return.

Home was exactly as described and pictured. House works well to host a family or extended family/friends. Beds were all comfortable. The game room in the basement was a great addition for whenever the weather did not cooperate. Bed sheets are cleaned in sealed plastic bags when you arrive - just be prepared to make your own beds that first day (no issue for us; but I could see being an issue if arriving late). Great communication from owners; checked in with us mid-stay to make sure everything was as we expected.

Just stayed for a week at Canal Daze and had a wonderful time. Everything was as stated at booking. House was clean and plenty of fun for the kids. I had to contact Aaron a couple of times for minor issues and got a quick response and they were taken care of by the end of the day. My only recommendation for the house would be maybe to add a large umbrella with rolling stand to cover some of us from the sun for the backyard and a muffin pan. Thank you for allowing us to spend some much needed fun time with the family. The game room was a hit for all of the grandkids. They loved the water sport (Kayaks, paddle boards, nearby tennis courts and community pool, bikes). Highly recommend this home. Best, regards, Jamie

My only recommendation for the house would be maybe to add a large umbrella with rolling stand to cover some of us from the sun for the backyard and a muffin pan. Thank you for allowing us to spend some much needed fun time with the family. The game room was a hit for all of the grandkids. They loved the water sport (Kayaks, paddle boards, nearby tennis courts and community pool, bikes). Highly recommend this home. Best, regards, Jamie

The house is beautifully decorated! Our family of 4 visited and really enjoyed the game room, hot tub, fire pit and dock. House would be a great house for a large family on vacation.

Canal Daze was the perfect place for our family of 5 and our dog to relax and have some down time on our vacation! It is beautifully decorated, and it is located in beautiful, quiet neighborhood right on the canal. Great place to sit and drink your morning coffee. The weather was a little cold and rainy a couple of the days, and the game room was beyond perfect to have some fun family competitions! The house is located just a short drive from the main part of town and the beach on the Atlantic side. Aaron and Jamie were super responsive and kept in touch with us prior to our arrival and checked in with us once we had arrived. We highly recommend renting from them and are already planning a trip back to the Outer Banks in warmer weather! Thank you so much for your hospitality and allowing us to have a great week together as a family!

Our stay in Kill Devil Hills was amazing! This waterfront property was the perfect house to accommodate our group of 9 and our golden retriever for the week. The house was clean and well-decorated. We enjoyed the many amenities that it offered... fishing off the dock, kayaks, paddle boards, game room, hot tub, bikes, bar area, and YMCA passes. The kitchen was well stocked and labeled, and the house conveniently offered sheets and towels. Every room, porch, and deck was well thought out, offering plenty of comfy dining and seating areas. The beach was a short drive, and we found it easy to access public parking. Aaron responded quickly to any questions and offered helpful solutions. We would absolutely stay here again!

Booking and communication was great. The house location is away from the busy spots but just a short drive to beaches. The home has a great layout, is beautifully decorated and very clean. Kitchen had hot chocolate supplies and a coffee bar. The house was decorated for Christmas…very nice touch. We really enjoyed the sun room connected to the master bedroom. The huge downstairs game room was one of the reasons we booked and it did not disappoint. Love that the hot tub is inside for those rainy days. Neighborhood was quiet and I really like that it’s a gated community. We enjoyed several restaurants close by the house. It was too cold to take advantage of the kayaks, and waterfront but we had an amazing stay!

Canal Daze is definitely the retreat we were looking for. The check in and check out process was a breeze and the hosts were prompt responders. The house was clean and spacious. While there's plenty to do in the OBX, you don't have to leave this house to have a fun relaxing time. From the pool table, to ping pong, to the movie room, to the hot tub, to the firepit and fishing outside, you're never in want of finding something to do. We will definitely be back!

I recently traveled to OBX with my family and family friends. There were 13 of us in all, with kids ranging from 10-17. Our stay exceeded expectation! The house is beautiful and is as pictured. It was clean and comfortable. There is so much to do in the house itself. Everyone enjoyed the game room, and the canal was so much fun to kayak, paddle board and catch crabs on. There was plenty of space to spread out so that everyone could enjoy what they wanted to do, whether it was nap, read a book, watch a movie or play games. The beds were very comfortable. There were two large tables for dining which worked out perfectly for a large group. As far as location, it was about a 10 minute drive to the ocean itself. There are plenty of public access parking lots. This was never an issue. We rented bikes and even rode them to the beach one morning. There are bike lanes everywhere. The sound beach and community pool are about a 1.5 mile away. We rode our bikes there several times, but it is a very quick car ride. The entire community was very friendly. The Wright Bros Memorial is just down the road, and there are so many stores and restaurants just a short car ride away. Communication with the owners was great, and they checked in to make sure all was well. We had no issues during our stay. I highly recommend this property!

The owners, Aaron and Jamie were amazing to work with! They were super responsive and very accommodating! We had everything we needed while staying at the Canal Daze, from linens (bedding, towels, beach towels), to kayaks, paddle boards, bicycles, crab traps and fishing rods; they had beach chairs, coolers, boogie boards, you name it. Having all these extras really helped us in our travels from PA.The home itself is amazing! It sits right on the canal and we thoroughly enjoyed the backyard and sitting by the fireplace, both in the morning with our cups of coffee and in the evening with a glass of wine. We used the charcoal grill in the back yard as well and enjoyed the sunsets by the dock. Inside the home was well maintained, and beautifully decorated. Some people don't really care about that when they travel, but I like staying in a place that feels new and fresh. The beds were comfortable and there's so much space if you need alone time. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly think of, from pots and pans galore (we were even able to steam some crabs in the oversized steaming pot they have) to tons of cooking utensils, and small appliances (crockpot, blender, Keurig, coffee pot, electric kettle).The ground level was also a sight to see with the game room, which we enjoyed playing pool in, and the theater room and tiki bar/hot tub room that overlooked the canal. We will definitely be staying at Canal Daze again! Thanks Aaron & Jamie-you are amazing hosts!

Um. There is literally nothing Canal Daze hosts haven’t thought of. My sister’s and my families have taken Beach trips to Cape Cod, Long Island, several Jersey Shore beaches, and finally ventured to OBX. We have stayed in beautiful places close to wonderful beaches and activities, but this house combined with its location is really second to none. The house itself is perfect- plenty of space for 2 fams w kids ranging from 8-20, 2 couples, and 2 dogs. Everyone- EVERYONE- was happy with their accommodations.But by far, the canal in the back is just too perfect. Every morning we sat w coffee, and every day we put the kayaks and paddle boards in the water to play around. The boys sat on the dock everyday fishing and crabbing. The beach is a quick drive w close parking. Jockey Ridge is a few minutes down the road and beautiful for sunsets and kite flying. And then the house itself with the game room was the perfect place to return every night- ping pong, bball, pool- puzzles, cards/ and LOVE the “tips” in every room left by the hosts to make everything easy. It’s an organizers dream!!itl if you’re coming to the Outer Banks, there is no question- this is where you should stay. This is a hike for us (from NJ) but we hope to be back. We were so sad to leave this morning!! Thank you to our wonderfully helpful and kind hosts!!

Even before we arrived he made sure we had everything we needed and answered all of our questions.What can I say about the actual house- the location is beautiful and the indoor hot tub was so relaxing! We loved all the helpful notes and the house had everything we could have wanted or needed. We are already thinking of when we can return!

This was a perfect Thanksgiving get away for our family (10 of us ages 11-76) Not only was it a quiet location, it had something for everyone to do….game room, fishing, crabbing from the dock, kayaking, biking..to name a few and it was close to the beach for great kite flying. There was office space for those who needed to work, an amazingly well equipped kitchen and indoor space for all. The owner quickly responded to any questions or concerns that we had. It was all we hoped it would be!

Just stayed for a week at Canal Daze and had a wonderful time. Everything was as stated at booking. House was clean and plenty of fun for the kids. I had to contact Aaron a couple of times for minor issues and got a quick response and they were taken care of by the end of the day. My only recommendation for the house would be maybe to add a large umbrella with rolling stand to cover some of us from the sun for the backyard and a muffin pan. Thank you for allowing us to spend some much needed fun time with the family. The game room was a hit for all of the grandkids. They loved the water sport (Kayaks, paddle boards, nearby tennis courts and community pool, bikes). Highly recommend this home. Best, regards, Jamie

Enjoyed a week at the beach in this home with all the amenities! Had total of 11 (two combined families including 5 kids) and everyone had ample room! Kids loved the game room, we enjoyed crabbing off the dock, and were within 12 mins to the beach! The house had everything we needed to make meals, paddle board and kayak in the canal, and watch movies when it stormed one day. Also close proximity to the Wright brothers national park and sand dunes state park… so much to do, the week flew by! Thanks to Aaron and Jamie for being great hosts and going the extra mile to respond whenever we had any small hiccups!

The owners, Aaron and Jamie were amazing to work with! They were super responsive and very accommodating! We had everything we needed while staying at the Canal Daze, from linens (bedding, towels, beach towels), to kayaks, paddle boards, bicycles, crab traps and fishing rods; they had beach chairs, coolers, boogie boards, you name it. Having all these extras really helped us in our travels from PA.The home itself is amazing! It sits right on the canal and we thoroughly enjoyed the backyard and sitting by the fireplace, both in the morning with our cups of coffee and in the evening with a glass of wine. We used the charcoal grill in the back yard as well and enjoyed the sunsets by the dock. Inside the home was well maintained, and beautifully decorated. Some people don't really care about that when they travel, but I like staying in a place that feels new and fresh. The beds were comfortable and there's so much space if you need alone time. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly think of, from pots and pans galore (we were even able to steam some crabs in the oversized steaming pot they have) to tons of cooking utensils, and small appliances (crockpot, blender, Keurig, coffee pot, electric kettle).The ground level was also a sight to see with the game room, which we enjoyed playing pool in, and the theater room and tiki bar/hot tub room that overlooked the canal. We will definitely be staying at Canal Daze again! Thanks Aaron & Jamie-you are amazing hosts!

Everything was super clean and very well organized on arrival. We enjoyed the location on the canal and we were able to fish, kayak, and hang out in the backyard. When we did go to the beach, the beach cart, towels, chairs, umbrellas, toys, and coolers were amazing! Unfortunately for us the weather didn’t cooperate so the beach didn’t happen as much as we hoped, but the house had plenty to do and we also found lots of historical sites close by. We enjoyed the hot tub, game room, and even played OBX-Opoly. Don’t overpack, this house has everything you need and it’s all labeled and easy to find! The house was plenty big for all 10 of us that stayed (ages 6-71) and we enjoyed the cute decorations as well as the amenities. This was by far the most well-stocked beach house we have ever rented. If we go back to OBX, we will definitely stay here again! Thanks Aaron and Jamie for your clear and frequent communication and for sharing your house!

Canal Daze is an amazing home for families, especially with children. The hosts have thought of everything to keep you entertained and if you didnt want to you would never have to leave the home! A gameroom with a pool table, ping pong table, fooseball and basketball game. Movie room with lots of movies to choose from and tons of table games. The outdoor area did not disappoint! Everyone enjoyed the kayaks and paddle boards and especially the hot tub. The kitchen was well stocked with all the items you will need. We grilled several nights and although their was a fire pit, we were so busy we didnt even have a chance to use it! The home is beautifully decorated. We enjoyed the community beach several times as well as the pool. Aaron was a pleasure to work with and any situation we ran into, he was quick to respond. The only downside were the stairs. If you are old like me you will want to minimize your up and down trips! Overall a great experience!

Our stay in Kill Devil Hills was amazing! This waterfront property was the perfect house to accommodate our group of 9 and our golden retriever for the week. The house was clean and well-decorated. We enjoyed the many amenities that it offered... fishing off the dock, kayaks, paddle boards, game room, hot tub, bikes, bar area, and YMCA passes. The kitchen was well stocked and labeled, and the house conveniently offered sheets and towels. Every room, porch, and deck was well thought out, offering plenty of comfy dining and seating areas. The beach was a short drive, and we found it easy to access public parking. Aaron responded quickly to any questions and offered helpful solutions. We would absolutely stay here again!

My husband and I had a wonderful vacation at Canal Daze. The location was perfect and close to everything in OBX, and the house was impeccable. The indoor hot tub, shower, and bar area was amazing! The kitchen was well equipped with crab pots (huge bonus for us) and coffee bar area. The backyard fence area was also perfect for our dog. The wrapped beach towels and sheets were such an impressive detail as well. Lastly Aaron was a wonderful host checking in on us (via email). We definitely will be renting this beautiful home again in the future! Thank you Aaron and Jamie! Mel and Dodson

This property was perfect for a winter getaway. With the game room, media room and hot tub there was plenty to enjoy inside the home. There are lots of cozy places to play games or read a book and so much fun to be had while making smores by the firepit. The house and property was very clean and kept up. The beds were comfortable. Everything in the kitchen was easy to find and it was well stocked. I absolutely would recommend this property and hope to stay here again in the future.

This was a perfect Thanksgiving get away for our family (10 of us ages 11-76) Not only was it a quiet location, it had something for everyone to do….game room, fishing, crabbing from the dock, kayaking, biking..to name a few and it was close to the beach for great kite flying. There was office space for those who needed to work, an amazingly well equipped kitchen and indoor space for all. The owner quickly responded to any questions or concerns that we had. It was all we hoped it would be!
