From Positive Latitude OBX's expansive sound vistas and exceptional sunsets to the organic wetland grasses, this bespoke 3,800-square-foot home will satisfy your soul. Drive down the lane to the end, and enter the home via the under-home entryway. You'll have elevator access and locking storage to take advantage of. Two outdoor showers, a half bath, and a fish-cleaning table are all conveniently located next to the driveway and water access. (note in colder months the outdoor showers and bathroom are winterized). NEWLY ADDED - a boat slip is available for your use! Just purchased it for our own private use & for that of our guests. The channel is shallow and needs to be dredged so that is next on our list - it is very sandy and clear though!

The first-floor game room has sound-side deck access, foosball and pool tables, an LCD TV, a Play Station 3, a surround-sound stereo, a kitchenette that includes a full refrigerator with an ice maker and a half bath. The second floor has two sound-front king master bedrooms with deck access, one has handicapped bath features. A third bedroom has two bunk beds, one with a full and twin on top and the other with two twins. The fourth bedroom has waterfront deck access. All have full en suite bathrooms.

Convenient to all are the laundry and office nook. Savor the hot tub located on the waterfront screened porch. The huge third-level great room welcomes you with comfortable modren furnishings, an LCD TV with firestick and DVD player with stereo surround sound, and cozy fireplace seating. Cooking is a joy in the cavernous, well-equipped kitchen featuring a six-burner gas cooktop, a sizable refrigerator, two dishwashers, and a additional under-counter refrigerator. There is a keurig coffee maker, breville espresso machine and also a regular coffee maker. The enormous center prep island is the ideal place to gather with family and friends and is open to the dining area which has spectacular vistas of the Pamlico Sound. Unwind and watch the sunset on the roomy deck or from the picnic table on the screened porch. The fifth bedroom opens to a waterfront deck. Head up the steps to the observation tower with a view of the lighthouse to read or nap on the cozy daybed. Bikes and kayaks supplied, so take a bicycle ride to the lighthouse, stores, and eateries located close by, or just relax and get back to nature with the charming home!

Strategies to get the best vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Hatteras area. To find the best value, try changing your vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warm weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Some owners offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide 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, travel guides contain discounts for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Planning and choosing a perfectrental home:

• To start, have your family decide on dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Positive Latitude OBX - VIEWS, Waterfront, elevator, all en suites has 5 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is often available online. If they are not listed, email the property management company before you book the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or costs applied to your invoice.
• If there's a particular Hatteras beach you crave, look for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents many concerns.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To make sure that damages are not linked to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. Get in touch with the host right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your peace. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the 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 excellent time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
