SOUND FRONT Avon – Kinnakeet Shores – When birds of a feather vacation together, there’s no better place to nest than SPARROW’S TREEHOUSE, a rare Hatteras home encircled by a natural privacy barrier of indigenous trees. Above the treetops, broad Pamlico Sound vistas will send your spirit soaring high and complimentary.
Take a walk on the private boardwalk to the sound or relax in a chaise by the side of the private pool as a symphony of birdsong serenades swimmers and sunbathers alike. If you prefer music of a different genre, an outdoor speaker in the pool area is available to stream your favorite tunes. Next to the pool is a five-person hot tub, ideal for a calming soak. Anglers will adore the lighted fish-cleaning station with running water to prep the catch of the day for dinner that nighttime, along with an outdoor shower for a convenient rinse off. Enter the first level from under the home and discover an all-floor elevator, convenient for transporting groceries, belongings and of course, people, especially those with physical challenges. There’s also a master queen bedroom on this level featuring a private bath.
Three more primary bedrooms occupy the second level, all with private baths and deck access outfitted with Polywood® furnishings and swaying hammocks, the ideal place to take a seat and watch the nature show from morning sunrises to evening sunsets to starlit skies. One level up and you’ll find two more master bedrooms with private baths and deck access, in addition to the home’s laundry facilities. A enormous, furnished game room offers a pool table, flatscreen TV, kitchenette and huge deck, a ideal place to while away non-beach or boating days.
On the fourth and very top level, you will really see the forest for the trees, as sweeping expansive vistas come into view through walls of floor-to-ceiling windows and from the expansive sound side deck. The expansive great room flows freely from kitchen to dining to living to outdoor spaces, bringing your family together for the moments that notch those indelible memories. A five-seat breakfast counter fronts a generous kitchen featuring a center cooktop island, GE Monogram® stainless appliances including a double stove, and granite countertops. Every meal at the 12-seat dining table is enhanced by spectacular sound vistas while a four-person café table accepts for more intimate dining on the deck. The great room features a sizable wall-mounted flatscreen TV with plenty of comfortable seating providing ideal sight lines to catch the action. There’s also a half-bath on this level and the final master bedroom featuring a bath with a two-person Jacuzzi® and private deck access. When it comes to finding a home with this much space and privacy for your next hideaway, there’s no better place to land than Sparrow’s Treehouse. Book it today.

Tips and Tricks for getting the best vacation property experience:

Finding your best deal:

• To get the best value, shift your family's Hatteras trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
• The earlier you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides have coupons for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking the rightvacation home:

• Start by having your group choose the best dates and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Sound Front, Dog Friendly Home in Avon with Pool, Hot Tub, and Elevator! has 7 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property owner before you reserve the rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what is suitable for your family.
• If there's an individual Hatteras beach you crave, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• Some rentals allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.

Tips for a great stay:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Note any damages to the property during check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute arises.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to address 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.
