Located on a peaceful cul-de-sac, the home is ideal for those who appreciate the privacy of open space, wide-open vistas, and a short walk to the beach. You won’t have to walk far to reach water, as a private pool, outdoor shower, and 6-person hot tub await on the ground level. A few steps up on the first level you will find a game room with a pool table, seating area with Intelligent TV and a wet bar featuring a sink, drink refrigerator, and dishwasher. A master king bedroom with an ensuite bath completes this level.

Four more bedrooms occupy the second level: two master king rooms with ensuite baths; and a king and bunkroom that share a hallway bath. The final bedroom, a master king with ensuite bath is located on the third level – ideal for those who adore to be close to the great room and kitchen. It’s here, in this casually fashonable communal space, that families find their daily vacation rhythm. Start your day with coffee brewed in the completely equipped modern kitchen; sip it slowly on the adjoining deck as you look for wildlife in the marsh and trees. The meals you prep or grille on the gas grille can be served at the 10-seat dining table with an additional four seats at the bar. As the evening winds down, settle into the great room’s luxuriously comfortable furnishings to watch the Intelligent TV or be inspired, like dolphins, to talk, talk, talk.

Tips to get the best Buxton rental experience:

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

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Book your rental property in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies often offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Planning, picking, and booking the right Hatteras rental home:

• Start by choosing your the best vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Oceanside - Private Pool, Game Room, Hot Tub, Nearby Community Beach Access has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking websites. If not, email or call the property manager before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or costs applied to your contract.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable 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:

• Add the owner's phone number to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• To make sure damages aren't linked to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during arrival. Contact the rental manager immediately to document any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• At departure, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from 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 host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a terrific time? Most rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
