Let your worries and your cares slip away at this beautiful 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 appreciate 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.

Buxton vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to your budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in Buxton. To get the best value, change your family's Hatteras vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area travel guides that include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Finding the perfect rental home:

• Choose vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. 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 regularly accessible on booking pages. If not, contact the property management company before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what is right for your group.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Does your group require special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Tips for your stay:

• Get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents a lot of concerns.
• Lock your rental while you are out. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas during arrival. E-mail the rental manager right away to record your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on good reviews to stimulate new bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
