(note in colder months the outdoor showers and bathroom are winterized). NEWLY ADDED - a boat slip is available for your use! Just purchased it for our own private use & for that of our guests. The channel is shallow and needs to be dredged so that is next on our list - it is very sandy and clear though!

Cooking is a joy in the cavernous, well-equipped kitchen featuring a six-burner gas cooktop, a enormous refrigerator, two dishwashers, and a additional under-counter refrigerator. There is a keurig coffee maker, breville espresso machine and also a regular coffee maker. The sizable center prep island is the ideal place to gather with family and friends and is open to the dining area which has spectacular vistas of the Pamlico Sound. Unwind and watch the sunset on the roomy deck or from the picnic table on the screened porch. The fifth bedroom opens to a waterfront deck. Head up the steps to the observation tower with a view of the lighthouse to read or nap on the cozy daybed.

Tips for getting the best vacation rental experience:

Finding the best rental home value:

• In the Hatteras area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Reserve your rental home in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Hatteras area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guides contain coupons for nearby shops and restaurants.

How to pick the perfect rental home in the Hatteras area:

• Choose vacation dates and budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. Positive Latitude OBX - VIEWS, Waterfront, elevator, all en suites has 5 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking websites. If not, email or call the property owner before you reserve the rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Traveling with pets? 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! Additional pet fees or applied to your agreement.
• If there's an individual Hatteras attraction you are enamored with, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

More considerations:

• Get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents many issues.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let thieves ruin your holiday.
• At Check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Re-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect 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 feedback.
