Two outdoor showers, a half bath, and a fish-cleaning table are all conveniently located next to the driveway and water access. (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 roomy, 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 huge 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 cavernous 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. Bikes and kayaks included, so take a bicycle ride to the lighthouse, stores, and eateries located close by, or just relax and get back to nature with the charming home!

Buxton rental booking tips and tricks:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• To find the best value, try changing your family's Hatteras vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, , and reduced traffic.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides have offers and deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Planning, selecting, and booking your prefect Hatteras rental:

• Select your vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. 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 vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before reserving the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's a particular Hatteras attraction you are enamored with, search for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs could be applied to your invoice.

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Put the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Upon arrival, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your life at home. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a terrific time? Many rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
