About Michelle McDonald
My husband and I looked for over 6 years for a place to call our own in the Outer Banks, and we finally found it in Between the Sound and Sea Escape! We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Michelle McDonald purchased this House in 2016
Why Michelle McDonald chose Dare County
The house is located right between the sound and the ocean with its own amazing view of a clear water lake. We liked how close it is to shopping, and love the fact that it still has a "small town" feel that we could not get in the upper Outer Banks.
What makes this House unique
Kinnakeet Shores amenities including pool and tennis, as well as Sound and Ocean access.

Great house and town!
Thanks for the great review! We will definitely check out the hot tub, it is less than a year old, so might be a setting or reset issue. The master tv should have cable , unless someone messed with the tv settings, we will check that as well! Thanks for staying, you definitely welcome back anytime!! Michelle-owner

Rates & Availability
Additional information about rental rates
We do welcome pets to our home, but we will need proof that your pet is flea free before they can stay. The proof can be a letter from at veterinarian that states that the pet is on medication for fleas, and is flea free. I am sorry if this is an inconvenience, but we want all guests to have a pleasurable stay in a flea free home. If it is found that you have a pet that was not registered, and the pet fee was not paid, you will be charged the pet fee, and responsible for any flea's found after your stay (as they can live months before hatching).
