Your own slice of Outer Banks heaven awaits at this family- and dog-friendly home, just mins. from the beach. With an unbeatable central location, you can step out the front door and walk to numerous close by eateries, or hop in the car for a fast drive north to Jockey’s Ridge State Park or the Wright Brothers National Memorial, both about 30 miles away. Head south along the Cape Hatteras National Seashore to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, a little over 20 miles away, with miles of glorious beach along the way. There are tons of watersport opportunities close by as well.


At home, start the day with coffee and a glorious sunrise view from the top-level observation deck, then head downstairs to the swing on the screened porch for some peaceful time before the day gets started. Multiple decks on each level, plus a sizable yard ideal for the kids and family dog to play, round out your outdoor space.

Inside, you’ll find two levels of living space with comfortable coastal decor and plenty of room to spread out. The newly updated main living area features new floor, new furnishings, and a modern, well-equipped kitchen, with a full suite of stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, tons of cabinet space, and all the cookware you'll need to turn out family feasts - or just snacks for the beach. Grab a bite at the window-front dining tables on either level, then slip into your swimsuit and head for the beach.

When you return, rinse off the sand in the outdoor shower and toss the day’s clothes in the washer/dryer for a quick refresh. If you’ve spent the day fishing, a convenient fish-cleaning table on the patio makes meal prep a breeze. Spend downtime at home in the comfortable living room or den upstairs, with entertainment options including four TVs, complimentary WiFi and cable, board games, and a tabletop retro arcade game machine featuring favorites like Donkey Kong and Pac-Man. Three well-appointed bedrooms promise a restful nighttime’s sleep, but not before one more visit to the observation deck for a nighttime toast under the stars to booking the ideal OBX getaway.

Tricks and tips to get the very best vacation property experience:

When to go & When to reserve a Waves rental home:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Reserve your Hatteras rental in Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. 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, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local Hatteras visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. 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 articles, travel guides have offers and deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Start by having your group commit to dates and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration you need. Dog-friendly home steps from beach with yard, multiple decks, and arcade game has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is normally available on booking pages. If not, call the property owner before you reserve your home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or could be applied to your agreement.
• If there's a specific Hatteras destination you are crazy about, look for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .

Tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• Note any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if damages are assessed.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a great source for finding the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent feedback to propel more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
