SOUND FRONT Avon – Kinnakeet Shores – When birds of a feather vacation together, there’s no better place to nest than SPARROW’S TREEHOUSE, a rare Hatteras home encircled by a natural privacy barrier of indigenous trees. Above the treetops, broad Pamlico Sound vistas will send your spirit soaring high and complimentary.
Take a walk on the private boardwalk to the sound or relax in a chaise by the side of the private pool as a symphony of birdsong serenades swimmers and sunbathers alike. If you prefer music of a different genre, an outdoor speaker in the pool area is available to stream your favorite tunes. Next to the pool is a five-person hot tub, ideal for a calming soak. Anglers will appreciate the lighted fish-cleaning station with running water to prep the catch of the day for dinner that nighttime, along with an outdoor shower for a convenient rinse off. Enter the first level from under the home and discover an all-floor elevator, convenient for transporting groceries, belongings and of course, people, especially those with physical challenges. There’s also a master queen bedroom on this level featuring a private bath.
Three more primary bedrooms occupy the second level, all with private baths and deck access outfitted with Polywood® furnishings and swaying hammocks, the ideal place to take a seat and watch the nature show from morning sunrises to evening sunsets to starlit skies.

A huge, furnished game room offers a pool table, flatscreen TV, kitchenette and sizable deck, a ideal place to while away non-beach or boating days.
On the fourth and very top level, you will really see the forest for the trees, as sweeping expansive vistas come into view through walls of floor-to-ceiling windows and from the expansive sound side deck. The expansive great room flows freely from kitchen to dining to living to outdoor spaces, bringing your family together for the moments that notch those indelible memories. A five-seat breakfast counter fronts a generous kitchen featuring a center cooktop island, GE Monogram® stainless appliances including a double stove, and granite countertops. Every meal at the 12-seat dining table is enhanced by spectacular sound vistas while a four-person café table accepts for more intimate dining on the deck.

Strategies to get the very best vacation home experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Reserving your vacation property up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Hatteras area. To get the best value, change your vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines contain coupons for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Selecting the perfect vacation rental:

• To start, have your family agree to date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Sound Front, Dog Friendly Home in Avon with Pool, Hot Tub, and Elevator! has 7 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible on booking pages. If not, reach out to the property owner before you book the rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine which bed configuration is best for your vacation.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or may be applied to your agreement.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .

More considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few concerns.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Record any issues with the property during check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
