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 freshly 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.

Tips to get the perfect Hatteras rental experience:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Book your rental property in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have money saving offers on local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Choosing the perfect vacation rental in the Hatteras area:

• To start, have your family select the best dates and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Dog-friendly home steps from beach with yard, multiple decks, and arcade game has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property management company about pet restrictions before booking.
• Looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .

Additional considerations:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your stay, inspect for any problem areas during arrival. Call the rental manager right away to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a terrific source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean 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 inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent reviews to compel future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best rental home. 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 quickly to fix it.
