A really unique getaway, this oceanfront home is full of color, appealing wood finishes, and lush greenery. When you aren't down on the beach, check out the close by Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Family Water Adventures, and a plethora of galleries, eateries, and parks.

Back at your stay, rinse off the sand in the outdoor shower before finding yourself calming in the brilliantly bold living room adorned with soft seating and a sizable TV. Step out onto the private balcony when you want the ocean breeze to kiss your skin. In the adjacent well-equipped kitchen, cooking will come painless with the ocean vistas never having to leave your sight. When it's time to eat, dine together at the formal dining table or pack a picnic to go.

Each of the bedrooms is retro, comfortable, and cavernous. But when you aren't relaxing here under the cool air of the central air-conditioning, spread out in the loft where an additional TV and sprawling couch provide the ideal spot for movie nights.

End your evenings with a walk down to the beach, where the air is breezy, the sound of the waves crashing is therapeutic, and the memories cultivated are lifelong.

Finding the best Hatteras rental experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a rental home:

• June, July, and August are high season in Hatteras. To get the most suitable rental home within budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guides contain offers and deals for local tours and attractions.

• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the property owner before you book the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's an individual Hatteras attraction you simply love, keep an eye out for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.

Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation home. Please be objective.
