The Frequent Flyer from a Parent’s Perspective

If you’re like me, “family vacation” brings Chevy Chase and the Griswold’s to mind. Bored kids, an over-packed “family truckster” and expensive meals are just the beginning! I wanted to share why visiting with my family at The Frequent Flyer takes the National Lampoon out of the equation and makes for not only great family fun but also a real vacation for me.

The ‘man cave’ (aka garage area) of The Frequent Flyer is packed with extras to keep everybody busy! From sand toys to bicycles and Kayak’s to stand-up paddleboards, the family will have plenty to do and you won’t have to pack, or worse rent, all of the toys that make life at the beach more fun. There are even beach chairs for the whole family!

From the best tanning deck on the home, I can watch my kids play safely on the beach of the shallow-water Sound. They spend hours trying to catch hermit crabs and minnows while I catch up on my tan and favorite book.

The entirely equipped kitchen means we can save a fortune on restaurant meals and my teenagers can eat their late-nighttime cereal and frozen pizza. We save buying the bulky but essential items such as napkins, tin foil, saran wrap, toilet paper, and cleaning supplies because the owner provides them as a convenience. And when you decide to eat out, the local eateries are family-friendly, reasonably priced, and extraordinary.


The Frequent Flyer from a Watersport Enthusiast

The Frequent Flyer has a grassy 1 acre Soundfront lot, a ideal rigging area for every water sport. The winds from the S to NNE are ideal for kiting and windsurfing on the Sound side. While it is possible to kiteboard on the inside of the bridge area, you will likely want to access the water west of the bridge. As winds go NE to SE, you can launch directly across the street on the Ocean side.

The home includes a ground floor enclosed ‘man cave’ plus a storage room for equipment. There are equipment racks outside for drying and inside to lock up at nighttime. A half bath and two showers are outside under the home, in addition to a cleaning station with a utility sink and hose. We can clean up our gear so that it is ready the next day. Rigging, launching, and storing your gear is a breeze at the Frequent Flyer.

The ‘man cave’ also has a modest bar, and a refrigerator which adds to the convenience factor. This home really caters to those who want access to the Sound and Ocean for watersports. When the wind is not blowing, the Frequent Flyer still delivers with 6 bicycles for cruising the island, 3 kayaks, and 2 stand up paddleboards. And of course, no trip to Hatteras Island is complete without a visit to the local surf stores. Fortunately, Real Watersports, Kitty Hawk Kites, and other stores are all within a few miles.


The Frequent Flyer from a Fishing Perspective

Why settle for the Ocean or Sound when you can have them both! The Frequent Flyer is located on a very narrow segment of the island providing access to both Ocean and Sound fishing. If your target is inlet fishing, “Oregon Inlet” and the “New New Inlet” are just north of the Frequent Flyer.

Convenient storage areas make unloading and storing your gear simple. A deluxe, outdoor fish-cleaning table makes prep a breeze. Bring your casting net as bait can conveniently be caught along the shore of the Sound. If you prefer to buy bait or need to update your fishing gear, multiple bait and tackle stores are just down the street including, Hatteras Jack.

Offshore Fishing Charters are available from close by Oregon Inlet or head south to the Hatteras Inlet. The Frequent Flyer is a dream vacation spot for avid fishing enthusiast and novices alike.

The Rodanthe ‘Jug Handle’ bridge bypasses the S-curves area just north of Rodanthe. The southern terminus of the bridge comes back into land South of the Frequent Flyer, along Pappy lane. To fish near and under the bridge, you can walk from the Frequent Flyer private Sound access lot as the water is shallow. Trout and Drum are plentiful.

Please let me know of any questions or concerns. We look forward to another great season in 2022 and make it our goal to ensure everybody has a 5-star vacation experience.

Strategies for getting the best vacation home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To find the best value, change your trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the booking 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 hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area travel guide magazines which will include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Filter your rental search:

• Start by having your family commit to the best dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. OBX Beach House + Bikes-Paddle Boards-Kayaks-Beach Chairs-AC-Cable TV-Free WiFi has 4 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible online. Otherwise, contact the host before booking your rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or applied to your agreement.

Advice for a great stay:

• Get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Record any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific source for finding the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on great ratings to inspire future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your feedback find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
