''My family and I have spent many Christmas weeks at the Outer Banks. We all had a wonderful experience at the Glad Tiding (K-09) home this past week 12/21/-12/28. The home is one to remember and had plenty of room for all to enjoy. Not at any time during our stay did anyone feel as if they were crowding on each other. All amenities were great including the kitchen, elevator, king size beds, indoor swimming pool, home theater, all were there for our enjoyment. The pictures on the website are...''

''We just got back from a couple of nights in the OBX. Normally we stay in a vacation rental, but this time tried FCI - excellent choice on our part! The bedroom and bathroom were very clean (the better half cannot stand a dirty bathroom and even she commented on how clean things were). Everything is well appointed and very cozy.

We go to Nags Head quite a bit -- in the future, I think we'll extend our stay and spend a couple of nights in First Colony Inn before checking into our vacation renta...''

''The food is always excellent here at The Tale of the Whale. The service is great and the views are too. I highly recommend the crab bisque soup, it is wonderful, as is all of the other food. You should make an effort to stop and eat here when in Nags Head....''

''Found this place on the recommendation of a local (Thanks, Gary!). Fell in love with the Kill Devil Hills blend--so much so, that I'm ordering more today. Each cup I drink (back here in the 'real world') reminds me of those summer mornings, sipping freshly brewed coffee and watching the sunrise....''

''Best golf views and challenging course that will change from morning to afternoon and day to day with the sound winds. Rarely will you take the same shot twice at a hole...''

''Thank ya'll for a wonderful stay. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and will definately be back on the weekend of May 23-26 of 2008. I don't think I have stayed in a better place on the beach in a very long time. I dont normally give out my age, but I have been coming to Nags Head since I was 2 years old and out of those 34 years I have been coming down there, I can't remember a more pleasant stay. Once again, thank you very much. I will be in touch very soon for reservations on the earlier mentio...''

''We took our dog who had fallen in the pool to the office of Dr. Welch who was closed, (a Sunday afternoon) He just happened to be there checking on another animal and heard us frantically beating on the door. He was about to leave to attend a very important family dinner, but instead, put his personal plans aside and saved our little puppy's life. Brownie, our cocker, had to be hospitalized for a few days as it was ''touch and go for a while''. Dr. welch's open door visitation policy made thi...''

''I recently went to Mulligan's for the all-you-can-eat crab legs and they were amazing. They came out hot and fresh and were delicious. I would definitely return!...''

''What a gem of a place! The atmosphere was calming and relaxing. I love the sailboat theme! The service was great, from the time I called til the time I arrived. The massage was so wonderful that when I dressed, I put my blouse on inside out!...''

''I have been vacationing at the Outer Banks for 12 years with a group of women who are fitness freaks. We have enjoyed the Outer Banks YMCA group fitness classes. Several of the women that attend this week are fitness instructors themselves and we have always had wonderful instructors at your YMCA!
Thank you!!...''

''The service rocked and I got a beautiful hair braid!...''
