June 28-July 3 now Open! Avon Village~Waterfront~Quiet Private~2King suites~Dogs
Captain’s Hideout is a peaceful, dog-friendly, owner-managed waterfront home in quiet Avon Village. With a private sandy soundfront beach, wraparound decks, and gorgeous sunset views over the Pamlico Sound, it’s an easy place to relax, recharge, and truly get away. Wake up to shimmering water views from your king suite, sip morning coffee on the deck, spend the day swimming, paddling, sunning or simply unwinding in the hammock under the oaks. The beach is just steps from the house—no long walks with chairs or gear. Inside, you’ll find a clean, well-stocked, modern-rustic home with all essentials provided: made beds, towels, beach towels, detergent, kitchen staples, and a fully equipped kitchen. Outdoors enjoy SUP boards, bikes, beach chairs, a fire pit, and a quiet residential setting with wildlife and endless sunsets. You’re close to grocery stores, restaurants, shops, and the Avon Pier—yet far enough to feel like you’ve escaped. Guests love how peaceful, clean, and comfortable everything is… and most say they can’t wait to come back.

Captains hideout is a fantastic Outer Banks getaway. Perfectly located on Pamlico Sound quiet, beautiful sunsets and still close to anything u could want on Hatteras Island. We would book this place again in a second when we return. It was everything we wanted in our stay and more.
We enjoyed our stay at Captains. The house was very comfortable and clean. A perfect set up for a small family or two couples. Sunset views from the private beachhead are fantastic.
House was clean, cute and nice location. Description is accurate. Neighborhood is very quiet.Parking was great. Bikes provided were nice to ride to local restaurants, businesses, pier and beach. Too windy this week to use the SUP's. Private beach area and view of the sound was great. Also the covered deck was enjoyable for us and our pups, used frequently.
This is our 2nd time staying at the Captains Hideout. Both very positive experiences. The owner is very responsive and gives great info of the area and the house. Everything you could need is there, minus the food. Looking forward to another relaxing vacation.
Communication with the host was easy and they were very responsive. The home was very clean and they allowed us to check in earlier than expected. Great location and beautiful home 😀 thank you!
We absolutely loved our stay! Everything was perfect at the house and Karen was so quick with responses and any concerns. We will definitely be back to stay!! I cannot recommend this beautiful home enough!

Captains Cove is a beautiful home with a comfortable yet chic decor. The wrap around deck is filled with plants and flowers so every nook is inviting. Karen is a kind and generous host having lots of items in the home you often find you need but forget when you arrive. Our family of three and two pups can’t wait to return!
Captains Hideout was everything we hoped it would be- quiet, great views and just perfect for the four of us. House was very comfortable and well supplied with the essentials. We would definitely go back there.
Enjoyed our stay. The views of the sound were amazing. Beautiful sunsets every night. House was nice and the location is convenient to everything. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Thank You Cory. Happy to know you and family enjoyed your stay! And thank you for sharing with friends.
The location was absolutely stunning! The house was perfect for us. There were a couple of things that needed fixing, but we still loved our entire vacation! Can't wait to return to Hatteras Island next summer.
We so enjoyed our stay. The house is very nice and tastefully decorated. We loved the walk in shower upstairs. Perfect house if you have pups as there is a gated wraparound porch and a fenced in area in the back yard. The neighborhood is quiet and great for evening walks. The private beach is so cool! We even had a fire in the fire pit one night. Truly a special house. Sunsets were amazing. Hope to return next year.
We have vacationed in OBX many times, probably around 10X. Our son & family were also vacationing in the area but we wanted our own space. Captain’s Hideout was absolutely perfect. The interior is beautifully furnished, the amenities superior, the location exactly what we wanted. Can’t say enough good about the outdoor decks & the yard. Perfect for our elderly dog. Truly appreciate the landscaping.
This was our first time renting on the sound and we chose the perfect house! The house was clean, exactly as described and the location was perfect! We were close to restaurants, shops, and a little playground for the kids. Karen, the host, was quick to respond , she even checked in in on us on our drive down to see our eta and give instructions. She provided every ounce of instruction and recommendation you would need while staying there. Check in was easy, check out was easy. The private beach was great for the sunset and beautiful to just sit at. Would definitely rent again!
We very much enjoyed our stay. The house was exactly what we needed. It was clean, comfortable, private and relaxing. The host was amazing. She went to great lengths to communicate regularly and to ensure we had everything we needed. We would stay here again!!
We had a great time and found this property to be perfect for our family of 3 and dog. We really enjoyed the sunset views over the sound, open floor plan and two master suites this property offered. It was an easy drive to local beaches and restaurants allowing us to find the right balance of relaxation and adventure. We’re already planning our return trip!

Thank you Chrissa! Dogs love vacationing at Captain's Hideout. Relax and adventure = perfect vacay! Hope to see you again. Karen
We enjoyed the "homey" feel and all the wonderful accommodations! Incredible soundfront view and access and the most amazing sunsets you will find! The paddleboards and bikes were very useful and in great condition. Thanks also Karen for being pet friendly so we didn't have to leave them at home!
