OCEANFRONT Avon — Ocean View Drive — Along with your bags, pack you sense of adventure, your joy for discovery and your want to go with the flow when you head to LIVIN THE DREAM, a beautiful 5,000-square-foot, seven-bedroom/five-full and one-half-bath home located less than two miles from the iconic Cape Hatteras Lighthouse. Here, life is indeed sizable, with everything you could want to turn your vacation into the next memorable chapter of your family’s story.

Pull up to the home set back from the road and note the huge grassy area where your welcomed family dog can shake out the zoomies. There’s a volleyball net and ping pong table here, too, to inspire some familial competition. On the ocean side of the home is a private saltwater pool and a five-person hot tub that provide idyllic options for relaxation. An outdoor shower and separate half-bath by the pool are two amenities you’ll determine are a well-worth-it convenience. Step inside and discover a game room featuring a pool table, air hockey table, arcade video game, and a 65-inch Intelligent TV. Store some beverages in the full-size refrigerator in the adjacent wet bar and let the fun begin. Also, on this level are two of the home’s bedrooms: one with a pyramid bunk and another with two single beds that share a full hallway bathroom.

An all-floor elevator brings you to the next level where there are four more bedrooms - 1 king and 3 queens. Two are masters with private ensuite baths and oceanfront deck access and two share a full hallway bath. There’s also an oceanfront sitting room on this level that can serve as a vacation home office, a peaceful space to read or watch TV or burn a few calories on a new Peloton® Bicycle. The home’s final bedroom, a king master with a private ensuite bath and deck access, is located on the top level right next to the hub of the home. Here, leather couches offer prime sightlines to the great room’s entertainment center housing a 65-inch Intelligent TV and sound bar. A enormous 10-seat dining table occupies prime real estate right in front of the deck sliders, accepting elegant vistas to accompany your meals. You’ll adore preparing those meals in the cavernous and well-equipped kitchen featuring a granite island, four-stool breakfast counter, gas range with a grille, and a convection oven. Bring your crew to LIVIN THE DREAM and discover how much you needed this.

Getting the best Avon rental experience:

Sticking to a rental home budget:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best rental home within budget, we recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines have deals for local shops and restaurants.

Choosing the perfect rental:

• First, have your family select dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Oceanfront - Dog Friendly 7 Bedroom w\/ Pool, Hot Tub Elevator, and Game Room has 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible online. Otherwise, call the property manager before reserving the property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish what configuration is best for your group.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or charges might be applied to your invoice.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental

Considerations for your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect your property!
• Note any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers bothering your peaceful home. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• On check-out day, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a great time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
