We don't want to go home!!

Review Submitted: May 17, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
First of all we would like to thank Tammy for saying "yes" to our request to bring our four dogs here - but our dogs are all housebroken, obedience trained and mature - and we are very responsible pet owners. We actually foster homeless dogs until they find new loving homes, so all of us needed a great vacation away from it all. We usually have to pay a dog sitter to stay with our furbabies while we go on a vacation without them, and then we call home frequently because we miss them...but we have all had such an enjoyable stay at Dawg Days that we hate to see our vacation come to a close. We've been going to the beach and lake with our dogs and have never seen them so happy, they've been spending most of their time at the house sleeping, waiting for their next walk to the lake or shore! We have some great photos and memories to last a lifetime, but we will definitely be back soon to enjoy making more. The photos of this beach home can't possibly show you how well it is set up for both comfort and safety - if you are lucky enough to stay at Dawg Days you will want to make it your "vacation home away from home" too! We can't wait to come back.
Owner's Response: You are so very welcome! There was no way I would want you to leave one of your furbabies at home!

Aside from digging holes in the backyard I think the lake is a favorite of our gang!

We can't wait to have you stay at our home again!!!!

Thank you again for the pics!!! They will definitely get into the book the next time we go to Dawg Days.

Dawg Days over Columbus Day

Ed and Julia Norfolk, Virginia
Review Submitted: October 12, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
We had a great time - the house was very dog friendly for our 2 Newfs and a Scottie with bowls and beds provided. We loved that in addition to the fenced in yard, the deck is gated so we could have the whole family enjoy the fall breeze. By the end of the three days of swimming in both the ocean and the lake (both which are within walking distance), our clan slept the entire way home and are still sleeping! The house was outfitted well with all needs including a fast WiFi connection that we needed even though we weren't supposed to be working and a nice TV when we needed to watch football....
We would definitely stay in Dawg Days again on any trip to OBX! Thanks Tammy for your hospitality!

Ed and Julia
Owner's Response: You are so very welcome! I have all your pics printed and ready for the book at Dawg Days! I thought I had all sizes of dogs covered for the dog beds but I might have to rethink this with Newfoundlands!!!

Bandit, Boomer & Riley are also happy that their co-4-leggers had a wonderful time!!!!

Lovely week

Review Submitted: July 9, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We stayed in June, 2009, and found the house comfortable and equipped with everything we needed. Even our 120 pound Newfoundland was pleased. The nearby lake was a great spot for her, and the rest of enjoyed both that and the easy walk to the beach. Lazing around on the big upstairs deck, in and out of the hottub, was also a treat. I'd definitely go back.
Owner's Response: I think we hit the top of the canine ladder with yours topping out at 120 lbs. I'm so happy you ALL had a great vacation!! Can't wait to put her pics in the album! Absolutely beautiful dog! We hope you vacation at Dawg Days in the future!!!

12 PAWS UP!

Cyble Burke, VA
Review Submitted: July 9, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We brought our 3 boxers and they loved it! The walks to the lake and running in the back yard filled with sand was their idea of a vacation. Us humans were very happy with the location, the description given and the house. It is well stocked so you really only have to bring towels and food.
Thanks so much for making it such a fun vacation for the entire family!
Owner's Response: I'm so happy to hear that you and your 4-leggers had a great time! We try to have a very dog friendly home as well as a people friendly home! Ours wouldn't have it any other way.

The picture you sent of them is precious! Especially the expression on the puppy!

Hope to see you back at Dawg Days again!

Doggie Paradise?

Ali78 Alexandria, Va.
Review Submitted: January 19, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
My husband and I spent a weekend in the Outer Banks over the summer and had such a good time we wanted to come back and bring our dog. As any dog owner can attest it is challenging and often expensive to vacation with your pet. We booked Dawg Days it for a Christmas vacation--it has many of the amenities we were seeking--wireless access, hot tub, fenced back yard, kitchen, and bed linens--plus it is very reasonably priced compared to other rental houses in the Corolla area. Dawg Days is conveniently located just south of the Tim Buck II shopping plaza and is a short walk from the beach. The house lived up the review, was decorated nicely, and was all in all a very comfortable place to stay. Chris, Maggie (the dog), and I would highly recommend Dawg Days to any pet owner looking to get away for a relaxing vacation.
Owner's Response: I am so happy that you enjoyed your stay at Dawg Days! I hope you make Dawg Days part of any future vacation plans!

I love the pics you sent of Maggie! They are printed out and ready for the book!

Thank you again for the wonderful compliments!!!!

Dawg Days Beach House Review

Dog Lover in VA Bridgewater, VA
Review Submitted: October 13, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
This house is great for your vacation at the beach with your dogs! The description for Dawg Days is spot on :O) We loved the fenced in backyard for our dogs. We could let them outside without supervision and know that they would be safe. This house was about 3 or 4 blocks from the beach which was an easy walk. Dawg Days also had a hot tub which was fantastic after spending the day at the beach boogey boarding!! For allowing dogs, this house was clean on the inside and out. Plus, Beach Realty (who we rented this house through) were very friendly. We would defiantely recommend this house to anyone. We are planning on staying at this same house when we come back to Outer Banks in 2010! Our dogs can't wait to come back either :O)
Owner's Response: Thank you for posting your review! We can't wait to have you and your 4-leggers back in 2010!!! Don't forget to send me pics of the pooches on vacation!!

Dawg Days is My Favorite!

kellyjane Hermitage, TN
Review Submitted: October 8, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
For the third year, I loaded up the dogs and headed east to Corolla for a lovely stay at Dawg Days. This is a delightful little house, perfect for me and the Gang. The owner and the management company provided prompt service when there was a small issue with the garbage disposal, sending someone out within an hour.

I really like the location of this house, close to Corolla, a bit removed from the traffic of Duck, easy access to Monteray Plaza and the Tim Buck II shopping center. And an easy three-block walk to the beach - which my chocolate Lab remembered well!

The kitchen is well-stocked with all the pots and pans I needed for all my cooking adventures. The front deck is lovely, a great place to spend an afternoon. It's on a nice quiet cul de sac.

I'm always recommending Dawg Days to my doggie friends, and I will definitely return again.
Owner's Response: Again, thank you so much for the great review! You're one of our best repeaters! I always look forward to getting your update emails while you are there!

Oh, the garbage disposal has been replaced!

Great stay, no worries.

CreativeDaze Sanford, NC
Review Submitted: June 30, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
Dawg Days was a great stay. We were so glad to find a place that love dogs as much as we do. Our dogs had a great time staying here and so did we. The area is very nice, safe and clean. Everything is furnished that you could possibly need and there are shops near by for the essentials. Dawg Days is kept well maintained and tidy. There is plenty of room for a family to stay and relax. You won't feel crowded tripping over the kids and dogs. The fenced in area is enough for your dogs to stretch out and run around in the sand. The area is well lit at night and is a pleasant area to take them on the evening walk. Access to the beach is easy to get to and is a short walking distance away. There is plenty of toys and games for the kids to keep busy in a very large bedroom with bunk beds and TV. If you must keep connected with your notebook, they have broadband wired/wireless internet access. At the end of the day the hot tub is a great place to relax out on the porch. We had a great time and plan on returning again.
Owner's Response: I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay!!! We most definitely would love to have you come back to Dawg Days!!

I loved the pics of your 4-leggers..they are already in the album. I have to laugh because I use "Kasey Storm" when talking to my daughter. Even though her name is spelled Kacey.

The best vacations are with your dogs!!!

Review Submitted: June 24, 2008 Date of Stay: November 2007
Dawg days was awesome. The area is perfect for your four legged friends. The fenced in porch and yard make it a breeze to let your dogs roam with no worries about them getting out. It was great to stay in a home where we knew the owners loved dogs as much as us. The house is located close to shopping and dining areas. The walk to the beach was very enjoyable since it is on a paved road through a beautiful neighborhood. The house was very clean and well stocked. We hope to return soon. We have never seen our lab Annabelle happier.
Owner's Response: Thank you so much for the great review! Hope you had a great honeymoon! Isn't it amazing how dogs completely change when they are at the beach? Our golden, Boomer, wishes he was a contractor's dog down there...that way he'd be at the beach every day. LOL We'd love to have you come stay at Dawg Days again!

Excellent Stay

Review Submitted: June 20, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2007
COZY and CLEAN are the first things that come to mind when thinking about our stay last year. Our pups graciously allowed us to stay with them in this amazing home. They had a blast digging holes in the sand out back, and immediately acted like it was their home from the beginning. The house has everything - including a Disney waffle maker! We loved that we could walk our pups to the grocery store and for coffee in the mornings and walk back along the beach. There's plenty of shopping centers around if you're looking for gifts or things for yourself as well. Thanks for sharing your home with us! We'd love to come back again.
Owner's Response: Isn't that crazy how our pups ALLOW us to go with them. LOL Ours ALLOW us to pay all the bills and mortgage to Dawg Days! LOL

My daughter so graciously donated the Disney waffle maker!

You are so very welcome but I should be thanking you for choosing Dawg Days! We hope you make it your next vacation spot!
