SOUNDSIDE Buxton — Feel complimentary as a bird when you settle into THE ROOST, a five-bedroom/five- and one-half-bath home with nothing between it and a private sound beach except a lush, forested ridge. While the thicket of trees provides loads of privacy, the shallow waters of the sound offer an abundance of possibilities, a welcome getaway for paddleboarders, wind and kite surfers, and families with kids, alike.

Upon arrival, release the dogs (two are welcome) to sniff things out in the fenced-in yard while you make use of the convenient elevator to move groceries and suitcases to the second level. The ground-level, fish cleaning station with lights and water will be a welcome sight for those who plan to fish. Those looking for a more languid pace will find it in the screened-in tiki bar area with seating, a TV, and a dart board to keep things interesting. You’ll find a private path to the water’s edge and an outdoor shower and foot wash station to keep things tidy when you return. Stairs leading to the first level reveal a 7-person hot tub to soak in the serenity.

Two ensuite master king bedrooms and a bedroom with a full and twin bed with access to a hallway bathroom also occupy the first level. These rooms appreciate close access to a media room featuring a 75” Intelligent 4K TV, puzzles and games, and a minifridge, stand-alone ice machine, and microwave to keep snacks and drinks at the ready.

The final two bedrooms, both ensuite master kings, are located on the second level and offer private upper deck access to catch the sensational sound sunsets. They also offer instant access to the home’s great room, an open communal space that brings everybody together for precious family time. There’s a delightful living area with comfortable seating providing ideal sight lines to the 75” Intelligent TV. The roomy and well-equipped kitchen encourages a group cooking effort to bring your vacation meals to the table, a long eight-seat one, with three more at the breakfast bar. Appreciate dining outside on the deck as well, where a six-seat table accepts you to savor the feast in front of you, including the one for your eyes as you gaze out onto the sound. As you do, watch the marsh birds come home to roost and be glad you booked THE ROOST so that you’ll have this memory forever.

New for 2024: New great room furnishings. New kitchen refrigerator. New under-home tiki bar area with TV and new seating. New Constructed-to-Last deck chairs on the upper deck.

Strategies to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• Book your Hatteras rental in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• In the Hatteras area, The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitor guides which often include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your rental search:

• Select vacation dates and spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Soundfront Dog Friendly w\/ Hot Tub, Elevator, Private Sound Access, + Media Room has 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before you reserve the rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Is your group looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your group is traveling with pets, search for a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Advice for a great stay:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas when you arrive. Make contact with the rental manager right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few issues.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental 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 any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to fix 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 feedback.
