About the host

Hosted by Tony and Jamie

Host profile image
Our Grandparents, Mo and Laurie, fulfilled their dream of building a family beach cottage on Hatteras Island in 1972. They enjoyed many years of fishing, exploring empty beaches, and bird watching with their two daughters and grandchildren. Our family treasures Mo’s Cottage with many fun filled beach memories. Mo’s Cottage was an Island favorite for visitors, many families returning year after year. We would like to once again invite visitors to enjoy “Mo’s” as we do.

Why they chose this property

Quiet Street and Quick access to the beach.

What makes this property unique

Smaller property with a home away from home feel.
