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 simple 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 conveniently accessible. Finest of all, the six-bedroom/five-bath home emanates a warm sense of home that makes it naturally painless 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 relaxing respite, whenever you need it. A game room featuring a pool table, foosball table and huge 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 calming 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 charmingly 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.

Finding the best Hatteras vacation property experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• In the Hatteras area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your vacation property up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• June, July, and August are high season in Avon. To get the best value, consider shifting your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines have coupons for local tours and attractions.

How to choose the perfect vacation home:

• Begin by selecting vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Soundside, Dog Friendly Home w/ Pool, Hot Tub, Game Room has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property owner before reserving the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

Considerations for your stay:

• Get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents a lot of problems.
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let crooks spoil your family vacation.
• During arrival, make note of any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible resource to find the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all of your things. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean 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.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
