Oceanfront Heaven in Buxton
Savor an memorable Outer Banks vacation in the heart of Buxton at this oceanfront slice of heaven. With 3 Bedrooms and 2 Bathrooms, On the Rocks has everything you need to let your worries wash away with the ocean breeze. Appreciate your very own Private Beach Walkway* right out to the ocean and a bubbly Hot Tub on the wrap-around deck after a day at the beach.

You'll adore the convenient location of this relaxation haven, less than 2 miles from the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse! Grab a drink and relax around the Firepit downstairs and whip up some fresh, local seafood on the Charcoal Grille before heading inside. Spend your evenings under the stars in the bubbly Hot Tub on the Wrap-Around Deck and appreciate handsome vistas as you relax on the lounge furnishings and soak in the salt air!

Inside, the open-concept Living Area features brilliant vistas of the ocean as well as a Flat Screen TV that is ideal for catching up on your favorite shows as you recount the day's oceanside adventures. The Kitchen features modern amenities and plenty of prep space, as well as an additional Counter Bar and impressive wooden Dining Table for appreciating meals together as a family. The Laundry Area means clean clothes for the family all week while the Full Bathroom with a Tub and Shower combo keeps you comfortable throughout your vacation! Make your way back to the King Bedroom with its own TV and direct access to the deck with ocean vistas when you're ready to relax and rest up for another day of adventures on the Outer Banks.

Upstairs, relax in the Den with a TV and DVD Player, or step out onto the Sun Deck where an unforgettable sunrise awaits and dolphin-watching chairs help you make memories to last a lifetime. Get the kids settled into the Bunk Bedroom with 2 Bunk Bed Sets or head up to the loft with a Queen Bed and Double Futon for a little more privacy. A Full Bathroom keeps everybody comfortable.

Explore Historic Hatteras Island
If you've always wanted to get away from the busiest areas of the Outer Banks but still be within painless driving distance of local eateries, gift stores, and landmarks, Hatteras is the ideal place for you to take your next vacation! Just a few miles down the road, you can go birdwatching and discover the marshes of the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge or drive to Buxton to climb the famed Cape Hatteras Lighthouse. The anglers in your group will appreciate being so close to Cape Point where they can try their luck reeling in a big catch. To learn more about the area's appealing history, stop by the Chicamacomico Life-Saving Station to learn about how water rescues were carried out long before modern technology. For a fast bite or tasty breakfast, drive down to the Orange Blossom Cafe for an apple ugly that's definitely worth writing home about. For dinner, try a delicious seafood meal from Pangea Tavern or a burger from Bros. There are also dozens of local stores within simple driving distance and all the fun adventures to be had in Hatteras Landing just down the road, so there is always something fun to do for the whole family.

Tricks and tips to get the optimal Hatteras rental home experience:

When to visit Buxton & When to reserve a Hatteras rental home:

  • June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Buxton. Reserve your rental in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
  • The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
  • Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
  • Property managers usually offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
  • Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your search:

  • Select dates and budget.
  • Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. 8527 On The Rocks * Oceanfront has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
  • Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property management company before reserving the property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
  • Does your group require unique amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters.
  • Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
  • Some rentals allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.

During your stay:

  • Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your . Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
  • To make certain no damages are attributed to your family's visit, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the property manager right away to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
  • Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
  • Lock your vacation home while you're out and about. Protect your property!
  • At departure, complete a final walk-through to confirm you have not forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Record a video to document the condition of the property.
  • Did your family have a fantastic time? Most rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
