SOUNDSIDE Avon Kinnakeet Shores – Portside Dr. – With the Atlantic Ocean to the east, Pamlico Sound to the west and the gentle waters of a lake anchoring the mid-point to both shores, 12 C’S is literally a force of nature. If the surrounding nature beckons the explorer in you, take one of the many exercise trails in the Kinnakeet Shores community that weave through the wetlands along the sound. The watersport enthusiast will appreciate the close proximity to the sound, offering painless access for windsurfing, kayaking, or even fishing for the family’s angler. If you cannot decide where you want to venture, 12C’S provides unobstructed, expansive vistas laying your surroundings out like a map, only thing left is for you to choose your adventure.

From the ground up, this six-bedroom/five-full and one-half bath home sparkles like the waterways that surround it. On the ground level, appreciate ample parking for six cars on a circular driveway, a basketball hoop, outdoor shower, and a fish cleaning station with water and lights. The private heated pool can be appreciated all day and well into the evening as the deck is lighted for max. use. Take the steps up to the first level — or use the all-floor elevator — and discover a game room featuring a pool table and a kitchenette with an ice maker, sink, microwave, and refrigerator making drinks and snacks comfortably available. There are also two bedrooms on this level: a master queen with private bath featuring an accessible shower and a pyramid bunk room located next to a full hallway bath.

Three more bedrooms occupy the second level. There is a master queen with private ensuite bath and two more queen bedrooms that share a hallway bathroom. All the home’s bedrooms feature Intelligent TVs and access to the wraparound deck where a new six-person hot tub provides an enticing way to wind down the evening. The final master king bedroom with private bath and deck access is located on the top level, as is a cavernous, open great room that has everything a family needs to relax and savor each other’s company.

There’s plenty of seating to gather around the Intelligent TV perched above the fireplace. The thoughtfully equipped kitchen makes vacation cooking a breeze. Start with coffee in the morning at the three-stool breakfast counter; later, serve up your homecooked dinner at the ten-seat dining table that offers picture-ideal vistas to compliment your appetite. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself drawn to the furnished upper deck often, you’ll want to commit those sound and ocean vistas to memory.

Tips to get the best rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Hatteras area. Booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is one of our best tips for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay 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 evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines have deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• First and foremost, have your family agree to a vacation week and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Soundside Dog Friendly Home w\/ Pool, Hot Tub, Elevator, Game Room w\/ Pool Table has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible online. If not, email the property owner before reserving the property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• 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 rental agreement! Additional pet fees or could be applied to your contract.
• If there's a particular Hatteras destination you long to visit, search for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

Have a great stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of difficulties.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let thieves ruin your family vacation.
• Make a record of any issues with the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a fantastic time? Most rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
