SOUNDSIDE Avon – Kinnakeet Shores – When the native white ibis finds a hospitable place to nest, the prized bird must be on to something. For human visitors, KINNAKEET IBIS is that place. It is surrounded by the sound’s wetlands, where nature and exercise trails weave throughout the neighborhood. It offers painless access to the Pamlico Sound for canoeing, kayaking, crabbing, and fishing. It sits two streets away from the ocean. There’s a community lake, pool and tennis courts that are comfortably accessible. Finest of all, the six-bedroom/five-bath home emanates a warm sense of home that makes it naturally simple to settle in and let vacation take over.

On the ground level, appreciate a private pool and patio with both ample shade and sun to position an Adirondack chair for max. relaxation. A new 6-person hot tub offers a calming respite, whenever you need it. A game room featuring a pool table, foosball table and enormous 50-inch Intelligent TV with Blu-ray pulls the action inside where you can make use of the refrigerator to store some snacks and drinks. A laundry room, full bath with a tub/shower and bedroom with a full bed completes this level.

Four bright and cavernous bedrooms occupy the second level. Two queen bedrooms offer relaxing lake vistas from private deck access. One features a private bath and a 32-inch Intelligent TV. The other also has a 32-inch Intelligent TV and shares a full bath with a bedroom offering two singles with a 32-inch TV/Blue-ray player. The final bedroom on this level is a king featuring private deck access, a 43-inch Intelligent TV and a full bath with tub/shower and a double-sink vanity.

The final ensuite king bedroom with private bath and deck access is located on the top level, as is a comfortable great room that has everything a family needs to relax and embrace the coastal vibe. Contemporary seating gives everybody a great view of the Intelligent TV or pick a book from the many titles in the bookcase and settle into a chair for a good read. The attractively equipped kitchen makes vacation cooking a dream. Appreciate the choice to serve up your meals at the four-stool breakfast island, eight-seat dining table or at the picnic table on the adjacent deck. You’ll find yourself drawn to that wide, furnished deck — and the crow’s nest perch above it — rather often: the vistas of the lake, ocean and pool are undeniably special.

Our top Avon rental booking tips:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Avon. Booking a rental in Spring or Fall is a good way to save on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties.
• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your vacation property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Hatteras visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, travel guides contain coupons for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Choosing the perfect vacation rental in Avon:

• Begin by selecting a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Soundside, Dog Friendly Home w\/ Pool, Hot Tub, Game Room has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible online. If they are not listed, contact the host before booking your rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what is optimal for your vacation family.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental home.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about your furry family members before booking.

Tips to have a terrific stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Upon arrival, record any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
