SOUNDFRONT Avon — Island Creek Dr. — New for 2024! — Bring both your kiteboard and your surfboard because the sky’s the limit when you stay at ISLAND SKY, a four-bedroom/three- and one-half-bath home located in the exclusive neighborhood of Island Creek Resort. Here, the shallow waters of the sound are at your back door yet the adventures of an ocean beach are just two blocks away. Ditch all your cares other than “which body of water will entice me today?”

Families, especially, will adore the way the soundfront location enthralls kids, adult, and up to two dogs. A grassy area and the shallow waters doubles as a play area as well as the ideal launching point for wind and kite surfers, paddle boarders, and kayakers. There’s plenty of room to store your gear under the home and an outdoor shower to clean up after the day’s adventures. Warm up to the idea of a calming soak in the 6-person hot tub located on the first level deck, especially as the sun begins its descent and the sky reveals a kaleidoscope of color.

Also, on the first level are three of the home’s four bedrooms. There’s a king master with ensuite bath featuring a shower. Another king bedroom and one with two single beds share a hallway bath. A laundry room is located on this level as is a freshly furnished sitting area featuring a Intelligent TV and a slider to the sound-facing deck. The final bedroom, a king master with ensuite bath is located on the top level and features a new Intelligent TV. Here, too, is the home’s generous and open living space that brings everybody together for meals, mingling and must-see TV watching. A newly refreshed and completely outfitted kitchen has everything you need to make meal prep a breeze. Settle into one of the two breakfast bar stools to savor your morning coffee and later at the eight-seat dining table for meals with a full view of the sound.

Accessible only by bridge, Island Creek Resort is the ideal place for anyone who enjoys the thrill of fishing, windsurfing, kitesurfing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and boating. The shallow sound waters offer ideal conditions for novices and pros alike. There’s a boat ramp to dock modest watercraft and guests have access to the community pool. A calming beachfront is a short distance away. Book ISLAND SKY and let your dreams for an ideal vacation soar.

Finding the best Avon rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are high season in Avon. Booking in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• The sooner your group can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved very early. Booking your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines contain discounts for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Selecting the best rental in Avon:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your vacation week, and select a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Soundfront Avon - Dog Friendly, Hot Tub, Community Swimming Pool has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rental home search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually available online. Otherwise, contact the property manager before you book your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish which bed configuration is suitable for your group.
• Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Request information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Record any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are useful if there is a dispute.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've not otherwise known!
• 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 delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your holiday.
• On check-out day, complete a walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
