Let your worries and your cares slip away at this pretty Outer Banks escape. Boasting a private in-ground pool, a entirely fenced yard, and a covered patio area beneath the home, this coastal getaway comes primed for countless fun in the sun. When you're not appreciating the amenities of home, discover the island's pristine coastline with a day at the beach or a walk down to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, which are both less than a mile away. You'll also be within a mile of great local eateries, gift stores, and bait stores.

Totally surrounded by a privacy fence and lush, tropical foliage, the backyard pool area offers you a private heaven to savor with friends and family. An upper deck area makes an ideal spot to work on your tan, and if you need some relief from the heat, the breezy ground-floor patio has got you covered. If you went fishing while out and about, use the fish-cleaning station to prepare your catch for a hearty meal. The backyard firepit's top can be turned into a grille to sear the fish you just cleaned. In the evening, use it for starlight s'mores sessions together. An enclosed outdoor shower provides a private and convenient spot to rinse off after trips to the beach.

Coastal tones and oceanside decor fill the interior, helping to set the mood for beachside bliss. Vaulted ceilings and strong natural lighting in the open-concept living area create an inviting space for group gatherings. An updated couch and intelligent TV provide comfortable home calming and indoor entertainment. A full suite of stainless steel kitchen appliances, cookware, and plenty of silverware are equipped for home cooking. Additional perks include central air-conditioning, complimentary WiFi, and a private washer/dryer.

Our top Rental booking tips and tricks:

Money saving strategies:

• Summertime is high season in Buxton. Book your rental home in Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation property six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitors guide magazines that include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning and choosing the best Hatteras vacation home:

• Start by having your family commit to the best dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Dog-friendly home with private pool, firepit, fenced yard, covered patio, & deck has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible on booking pages. If not, contact the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is suitable for your group.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's contact information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• During check-in, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on great ratings to stimulate new reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
