SOUNDSIDE Avon – Kinnakeet Shores – When the native white ibis finds a hospitable place to nest, the prized bird must be on to something. For human visitors, KINNAKEET IBIS is that place. It is surrounded by the sound’s wetlands, where nature and exercise trails weave throughout the neighborhood. It offers painless access to the Pamlico Sound for canoeing, kayaking, crabbing, and fishing. It sits two streets away from the ocean. There’s a community lake, pool and tennis courts that are comfortably accessible. Finest of all, the six-bedroom/five-bath home emanates a warm sense of home that makes it naturally simple to settle in and let vacation take over.

On the ground level, appreciate a private pool and patio with both ample shade and sun to position an Adirondack chair for max. relaxation. A new 6-person hot tub offers a calming respite, whenever you need it. A game room featuring a pool table, foosball table and sizable 50-inch Intelligent TV with Blu-ray pulls the action inside where you can make use of the refrigerator to store some snacks and drinks. A laundry room, full bath with a tub/shower and bedroom with a full bed completes this level.

Four bright and cavernous bedrooms occupy the second level. Two queen bedrooms offer relaxing lake vistas from private deck access. One features a private bath and a 32-inch Intelligent TV. The other also has a 32-inch Intelligent TV and shares a full bath with a bedroom offering two singles with a 32-inch TV/Blue-ray player. The final bedroom on this level is a king featuring private deck access, a 43-inch Intelligent TV and a full bath with tub/shower and a double-sink vanity.

The final ensuite king bedroom with private bath and deck access is located on the top level, as is a comfortable great room that has everything a family needs to relax and embrace the coastal vibe. Contemporary seating gives everybody a great view of the Intelligent TV or pick a book from the many titles in the bookcase and settle into a chair for a good read. The attractively equipped kitchen makes vacation cooking a dream. Savor the choice to serve up your meals at the four-stool breakfast island, eight-seat dining table or at the picnic table on the adjacent deck. You’ll find yourself drawn to that wide, furnished deck — and the crow’s nest perch above it — rather often: the vistas of the lake, ocean and pool are undeniably special. Bring your flock to KINNAKEET IBIS by booking today.

Tips to get the very best vacation rental experience:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Hatteras area. To get the best value, try changing your family's Hatteras vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer excellent weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Choosing the best vacation rental in Avon:

• Start by selecting the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Soundside, Dog Friendly Home w\/ Pool, Hot Tub, Game Room has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible on booking pages. If not, email the property owner before you book the property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what configuration is best for your vacation family.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• If there's a particular Hatteras destination you are enamored with, look for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental

Considerations for your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if a dispute arises.
• Be respectful. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Double-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on great reviews to drive more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
