Just a short distance from world acclaimed REAL Watersports where you can hit the waves learning to kite board and surf like a professional. If you prefer your water without the surf, you will appreciate the upsized 33'x 15' private pool where you can spend your days calming and soaking up the sun. Just a few steps from the pool deck you will find the covered outdoor shower and toilet, convenient for fast trips from the beach and pool!

You will find the four-person golf cart parked under the home, near the entry. Who doesn't adore riding around on a summer nighttime checking out the scenery? And, while this home is only a short walk from the private beach, the golf cart is very handy for transporting beach gear and family.

Tips to get the best Hatteras vacation home experience:

When to visit Rodanthe & When to book:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To get the most suitable vacation home within your budget, we highly recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Hatteras attractions and restaurants.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides have money saving offers on local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• First, have your family choose vacation dates and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Oceanside, sound view, dog friendly, private pool, hot tub, golf cart, game room has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property owner before booking the rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent lots of concerns.
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if a dispute arises.
• Be respectful. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on great feedback to drive new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
