Come and appreciate old Avon Village on a peaceful one way street. The Surfstead suite offers an eclectic blend of island history, craftsmanship and comfort in one of the oldest homes on Hatteras island. There is a private deck and entrance leading into a living and dining area equipped with a Roku tv. Prepare your meals in the completely supplied kitchenette. The bedroom features a queen size bed with another Roku tv, and a full bathroom with a bespoke tile shower. A private hot tub too!This really unique space has been my rehab passion for the past four years of my life and I look forward to sharing it with others. Constructed at the turn of the 20th century, the home has weathered many storms and with a lot of TLC she is ready to weather more. This unique space has all a traveling surfer or couple would need to savor all Avon has to offer. Centrally located, the beach is a 5 min. walk away as are many eateries and epic sunset spots such as Avon Harbor. The suite is a completely private space, as is the outdoor shower and hot tub. Guests are complimentary to enjoy the suite in its entirety including the private outdoor living space. Upstairs is my personal residence where I live solo since I finished the rehab circa 2019. Always peaceful and calming, there is no other neighborhood rather like Scarborough Town own Hatteras island. I have laundry facilities upstairs which I am happy to share with guests if they find themselves in need to freshen up their boardies after a few long, hot days on the beach. Just ask!

Strategies to get the perfect Hatteras rental home experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To get the best value, consider shifting your family's Hatteras vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great weather, fewer crowds, 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 the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter 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 the beach.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides have offers and deals for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

How to select the best vacation home:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation dates, and select a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Historic suite with a private hot tub! has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly accessible on booking websites. If not, email the property manager before reserving the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is right for your vacation family.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask your host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More considerations for your visit:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your holiday.
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your visit, inspect for any problem areas during check in. Get in touch with the property manager immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful stay? Most rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
