Description Description
Animal House is a gorgeous waterfront retreat boasting an unbeatable location in the sought-after Corolla Light community. With resort amenities just a short walk away and a complimentary trolley service to the beach, you can park your car in the driveway and leave it there your entire stay if you choose. Along with an incredible view of the Currituck Sound, Animal House provides direct access to the water for launching kayaks and paddleboards. The community's soundside pier is right behind the house, perfect for fishing, crabbing or simply watching the breathtaking sunsets.

A reverse floorplan, west-facing sun deck and windows galore make the most of the soundfront location. After a day at the beach or exploring the resort, come home and gather in the comfortably furnished, open-concept great room. It leads out to an expansive waterfront deck with a bubbly hot tub. When you're not dining out, prepare meals in the well-stocked kitchen with stainless steel appliances. A double oven, two sinks and two dishwashers make cooking and clean up for large groups a breeze. The primary bedroom is also located on the top level, offering the same stunning view and convenient deck access as the great room. It includes a cozy nook perfect for reading or catching up with work. A generously sized private bath features a double vanity, jetted tub and separate shower.

The mid-level consists of four more bedrooms (including two ensuites), three of which provide direct access to the soundfront covered deck. Downstairs, the entire ground floor is dedicated to indoor entertainment, where guests can watch a movie or the big game in the den or shoot pool on the billiard table. Use the kitchenette for convenient snacks and drinks, and the additional full-size refrigerator for storing extra groceries or the catch of the day. Animal House is equipped with an elevator, ideal for guests with mobility issues. Skip the stairs and use it to send luggage to the upper floors. As the name might suggest, Animal House is dog-friendly so your fur babies can accompany you on the vacation of a lifetime.

As guests of Corolla Light, your family will have access to a variety of world-class resort amenities - there's truly something for everyone! A trolley stop is located just two lots from the house and will shuttle you to the Oceanfront Complex for a full day of fun in the sun. Along with direct access to the beach, you'll find three outdoor pools, a snack bar, shuffleboard, volleyball, basketball and a playground. Back on the west side of the resort, Animal House is only 200 feet away from the soundfront community pool as well as the Corolla Light Sports Center. This impressive 36,000 sq. ft. facility includes an indoor pool, indoor and outdoor tennis courts, a fitness center with showers and a sauna, racquetball, walleyball, ping pong, and weekly classes/activities.

Pets allowed - dogs only. No smoking/vaping. 10 armbands for Corolla Light amenities. Trolley service available from Memorial Day thru late August.

We enjoyed our stay at Animal House; it is a great and beautiful property. As dog lovers, we loved the interior design and the bay view. The house also has an elevator, which is helpful for my parents, as they are seniors.
The location is excellent, being close to the community pool, gym, and within walking distance of the beach.
However, we did encounter a few issues. The hot tub was broken, and the amenities were somewhat limited. Additionally, we noticed that the cleaning could be improved, as some areas did not seem to receive as much attention as others.
Overall, we had a wonderful time and plan to return to North Carolina in the future.
Thank you, Village Realty, for accommodating us!

Such a gorgeous home on the Currituck Sound. The nightly sunsets on the deck will be remembered for weeks to come! Will definitely do this again!

Our family truly enjoyed our stay at Animal House! It was so wonderful to be able to bring our pup and stay in such a nice house with amazing views of the Sound. Super nice owners, too, that we met on our way out. Highly recommend this house. So many amenities when you stay here such as proximity to the gym, pickle ball courts, and oceanfront complex. Loved riding our bikes along the paths to the shops, lighthouse, Corolla Cantina, Kind coffeehouse, 4x4 area, and more. So much to do but still relaxing. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

The house was clean & roomy, and the beds were comfortable. The air conditioning worked well on the bottom 2 floors, but the top, main floor, got a little warm most days whether we used the ovens or not. It was hot and sunny those days, however. We enjoyed the location of the house and the view of the sunset from the back deck was amazing. We enjoyed the beach, the pool (good food and drinks at the pool as well), and playing Pickleball. It would be good if there were more Pickleball courts because it has become very popular. The trolley was a nice convenience too. Our only "complaint" was there was just minimal supplies for us for the week. We were informed of this ahead of time, but to just get one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, for a party of 10 adults for the week, & 1 roll of paper towels, was just not enough.. Also, no spices or condiments in the kitchen and no laundry detergent in the laundry room. These are minor "complaints" & overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Lovely location with convenient access to everything...beach, restaurants, and necessities. Loved morning coffee on the deck watching and listening to the ospreys and other birds. Elevator made load in and out and taking out our senior dog very convenient!

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. Village Realty is happy to hear that you have enjoyed your stay. We strive to provide an amazing vacation experience, that you and your family will look back onto for years to come. Off season is a wonderful time of the year to explore the outer banks. The shops, beaches and restaurants are certainly slower paced, and you the guest are able to enjoy the sights at leisure. We will be happy to help you with your next vacation booking and look forward to seeing you again. Safe travels! MH

My family and our dog had a wonderful stay at the Animal House during my kids spring break. We loved the house: so spacious, light-filled, peaceful, very comfortable, and the ideal location right on the water! We got to enjoy the spectacular view of the sound at all times of day and in all kinds of weather (we had a mix of rain of sun during our stay). The sunsets were gorgeous but equally beautiful was early morning. We cooked many meals at the house, and the kids baked cookies, and the kitchen has everything you need. We also appreciated all the fun dog-lover décor everywhere. It made us and our pup feel right at home. The pool table and hot tub were very nice amenities, especially on the days when bad weather kept us away from the beach. It was a perfect place for us to enjoy some family time. We would definitely stay here again!

Animal House was very comfortable and inviting to 3 generations of our family! We enjoyed beautiful sunsets, long walks/jogs, the dogs played in the ocean (it was way too cold for humans), and met several kind neighbors. It was off season so, there were some repairs that will need to be made due the high season but all in all, the house was the perfect get away. Thank you!

This place is a dog lovers dream! The house was incredibly dog friendly and we and our pups enjoyed a most wonderful vacation! The elevator made it super easy for us to get our elderly dog (and luggage) up and down the 3 floors. The house is located directly on the sound with beautiful views. The hot tub located on the 3rd floor allows you to look out into the sound and enjoy beautiful sunsets. The hot tub is on the smaller side and comfortably fits 3 people or 4 but more would be pushing it.
Our only complaint was some standing water on the sound right outside the house that was causing a bad smell which was mostly noticeable during windy days.
The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans and any kitchen amenity you could need.
When I stayed at beach houses in the past beds were usually old and uncomfortable but not here. The beds were incredibly comfortable- I slept sooooo well like I hadn’t in a long time. We had such a restful and amazing vacation at the animal house !
