From Positive Latitude OBX's expansive sound vistas and fantastic sunsets to the organic wetland grasses, this bespoke 3,800-square-foot home will satisfy your soul. Drive down the lane to the end, and enter the home via the under-home entryway. You'll have elevator access and locking storage to take advantage of. 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!

The first-floor game room has sound-side deck access, foosball and pool tables, an LCD TV, a Play Station 3, a surround-sound stereo, a kitchenette that includes a full refrigerator with an ice maker and a half bath. The second floor has two sound-front king master bedrooms with deck access, one has handicapped bath features. A third bedroom has two bunk beds, one with a full and twin on top and the other with two twins. The fourth bedroom has waterfront deck access. All have full en suite bathrooms.

Convenient to all are the laundry and office nook. Appreciate the hot tub located on the waterfront screened porch. The enormous third-level great room welcomes you with comfortable fresh furnishings, an LCD TV with firestick and DVD player with stereo surround sound, and cozy fireplace seating. Cooking is a joy in the cavernous, well-equipped kitchen featuring a six-burner gas cooktop, a huge 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. 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 elegant home!

Buxton rental booking tips:

When to book & When to go:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Hatteras area. Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring months is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental 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 guide magazines have deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Selecting the best vacation rental in the Hatteras area:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation dates, and choose a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms 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 search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the host before booking the property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what is best for your family.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking
• 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. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or charges may be applied to your contract.

Advice for your stay:

• Add the host's contact info to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Document any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your home life. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to make sure you didn't forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on great feedback to inspire new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
