Let your worries and your cares slip away at this charming Outer Banks escape. Boasting a private in-ground pool, a entirely fenced yard, and a covered patio area beneath the home, this coastal getaway comes primed for countless fun in the sun. When you're not appreciating the amenities of home, discover the island's pristine coastline with a day at the beach or a walk down to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, which are both less than a mile away. You'll also be within a mile of great local eateries, gift stores, and bait stores.

Totally surrounded by a privacy fence and lush, tropical foliage, the backyard pool area offers you a private heaven to appreciate with friends and family. An upper deck area makes an ideal spot to work on your tan, and if you need some relief from the heat, the breezy ground-floor patio has got you covered. If you went fishing while out and about, use the fish-cleaning station to prepare your catch for a hearty meal. The backyard firepit's top can be turned into a grille to sear the fish you just cleaned. In the evening, use it for starlight s'mores sessions together. An enclosed outdoor shower provides a private and convenient spot to rinse off after trips to the beach.

Coastal tones and oceanside decor fill the interior, helping to set the mood for beachside bliss. Vaulted ceilings and strong natural lighting in the open-concept living area create an inviting space for group gatherings. An updated couch and intelligent TV provide comfortable home calming and indoor entertainment. A full suite of stainless steel kitchen appliances, cookware, and plenty of silverware are equipped for home cooking. Additional perks include central air-conditioning, complimentary WiFi, and a private washer/dryer.

Our top Buxton rental property booking tips:

Finding the best rental home value:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Hatteras area. To get the largest rental within budget, we suggest booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions. 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 friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The sooner you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved very early. Reserving your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as 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 your host for details.
• Look for your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitor guides have coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Begin by selecting vacation dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Dog-friendly home with private pool, firepit, fenced yard, covered patio, & deck has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before reserving your rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a particular Hatteras beach you love, search for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or charges could be applied to your contract.

Know before you go:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• During arrival, record any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let crooks spoil your holiday.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected everything. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
