The adjoining eight-seat dining table gives you the option to appreciate longer, leisurely dinners. Stream your favorite shows on the great room’s Intelligent TV or savor the natural programming that occurs from the sound-facing deck, a round-the-clock viewing of windsurfers, ospreys, and brilliant sunsets. On the third level deck — a private enclave for the adjoining king bedroom that features an ensuite bathroom and Intelligent TV — the vistas extend to the ocean, providing a sneak peek at the prevailing fishing conditions.

Accessible only by bridge, Island Creek Resort is the ideal place for anyone who enjoys the thrill of fishing, windsurfing, kitesurfing, kayaking, paddle boarding, and boating.

Tricks and tips to get the best vacation rental experience:

How to get the best value:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Hatteras area. To find the best value, shift your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitor guides that include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning and choosing your Hatteras rental home:

• Start by having your family select the best dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Semi-Soundfront - Dog Friendly, Hot Tub, Windsports Access, Community Pool has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the host before booking the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent lots of concerns.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
• During check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic resource to find the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• At departure, take a final walk-through to make sure you haven't leave anything behind. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful time? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
