SOUNDFRONT Rodanthe — NC 12 Hwy — Just before the sun disappears below the horizon, there’s a warm glow as soft golden hues paint the sky. Some say this phenomenon creates an intimate and magical mood. Perched on the edge of the sound, the freshly constructed GOLDEN HOUR ON THE SOUND does indeed color your memories with the emotional warmth of the moment.

Those who appreciate fishing will appreciate how close this four-bedroom/four- and one-half-bath home is to the Rodanthe Pier or how simple it is to cast a line right from the property’s bulkhead. After your aquatic adventures, clean up with the convenience of two outdoor showers and a screened-in fish cleaning station with water and lights to prep your catch for dinner later. Fire up the charcoal grille while the kids work up an appetite playing on the broad soundfront lawn.

A set of stairs or the all-floor elevator takes you to the second level where you’ll discover all four of the master bedrooms — a king, two queens and a triple full bunk — all featuring ensuite baths and Intelligent TVs. There’s also a game room featuring a foosball table and two arcade games to inspire a little familial competition. Deck chairs and a 7-person hot tub, perched ideally on the sound-facing deck, offers the ideal setting to catch the sunset and the ensuing kaleidoscope of colors.
The third and top level features an open layout where everybody can come together in roomy comfort. A enormous couch and comfortable chairs invite complimentary-flowing conversation, Intelligent TV watching, and sound vistas. Gleaming stainless-steel appliances, loads of cabinets and an eat-at counter with four stools highlight a kitchen that is both pretty and purposeful. Eat here, on the deck at the whimsical “surfboard” picnic table, or at the eight-seat dining table that inspires long, leisurely meals that extend well into the evening. Make your next vacation one you’ll really treasure by booking GOLDEN HOUR ON THE SOUND.

Tricks and tips to get the best rental experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Book your rental property in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 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 or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guides contain deals for local shops and restaurants.

Planning, selecting, and booking your prefectrental home:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your dates, and select a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Soundfront Home w\/ Hot Tub, Elevator, Game Room, + Convenient Windsports Access has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking pages. If not, email or call the property manager before you book your rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what is right for your vacation.
• Does your group require specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, hosts charge additional pet fees.

Tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• Record any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
