About the host

Hosted by Chris

Host profile image
Greetings from Chicago, IL! My name is Chris, and I'm thrilled to share a bit about myself. I find my joy in staying active, whether it's hitting the ice for hockey sessions a few times a week, indulging in the occasional rugby match, or relishing snowboarding adventures. Most importantly, my time revolves around supporting and nurturing my three boys in their various activities—parenting is truly an adventure of its own!

What I cherish most about being a host is the opportunity to share the incredible experiences I've had on my best vacations. These moments, spent in the comfort of a home away from home, have been the source of immense joy for my family and close friends. Now, I'm excited to extend this opportunity to my guests, offering them the chance to relish the same comfort and create lasting memories in this beautiful space.

My journey as a host isn't just about providing a place to stay—it's about creating an experience that resonates with each guest. I prioritize open and effective communication with all my guests, ensuring that their needs are met and their stay is as delightful as possible.

Thank you for considering staying in my home. I can't wait to share this space and the wonders of the surrounding area with you, just as I have with my loved ones. Here's to creating unforgettable moments and making your stay truly remarkable!

Why they chose this property

A guest once told me this place is a little slice of heaven in the middle of nowhere. This area holds an allure that's both remote and rich in diverse experiences. Its tranquility doesn't equate to dullness; rather, it's a canvas for an array of activities that cater to every taste.

Immersing yourself in the charm of this area means indulging in myriad delights—scaling lighthouses that pierce the skies, casting lines for the day's catch, witnessing breathtaking sunsets that paint the horizon, and even the thrill of cruising along the beaches. The skies come alive with colorful kites dancing amidst the breeze, complemented by the captivating spectacle of kiteboarders mastering the waves. And oh, the seafood here is simply divine!

For family adventures, we frequent the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum and the North Carolina Aquarium, both offering a fascinating dive into history and marine wonders. Our explorations extend to day trips, where we delve into the vibrant energy of downtown Manteo or venture to the mystique of Ocracoke Island, a fabled realm steeped in the legacy of Blackbeard. Each visit to these captivating locales unfolds new tales and discoveries, adding depth to our cherished memories.

What makes this property unique

While many properties in this area might show signs of wear and outdated features, our home stands apart. We've devoted ourselves to revitalizing and enhancing the home, infusing it with modernity and warmth, right from the intricacies of bed covers to carefully selected wall art. Prioritizing families, we've ensured a child-safe environment by installing essential amenities like a baby gate, tamper-resistant outlets, a crib, high-chair, and dedicated children's tableware.

From the vantage point of our third-floor deck, witness breathtaking sunsets painting the sky with vibrant hues. After dusk, the night sky transforms into a canvas, adorned by a mesmerizing display of stars, while the distant sound of ocean waves crashing adds to the tranquil ambiance.

Our home offers an array of amenities tailored for an unforgettable stay. Delight in the exclusivity of a private swimming pool and a soothing hot tub, perfect for unwinding. For those seeking adventure, there's a pool table for exciting games indoors, while the home's proximity to the sound provides access to engaging activities such as kiteboarding, fishing, crabbing, clam digging, and boating. Ample parking space is available, ensuring convenience for guests with boats, making it effortless to explore the waterways.

In essence, our home isn't just a place to stay—it's a gateway to a world of comfort, serenity, and boundless entertainment, where cherished family memories are waiting to be made.
