Let your worries and your cares slip away at this alluring Outer Banks escape. Boasting a private in-ground pool, a completely 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.

Booking the best Hatteras rental home experience:

Sticking to your budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best value, try shifting your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warm weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Hatteras area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides contain money saving offers on local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Make a plan and choose the right Hatteras vacation home:

• Choose vacation week and budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Dog-friendly home with private pool, firepit, fenced yard, covered patio, & deck has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the property management company before you book your rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to establish what is suitable for your vacation.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or charges applied to your contract.
• If there's a certain Hatteras attraction you long to visit, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Record any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed everything on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on good reviews to propel new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
