Pet-Friendly Accommodations: We welcome one dog only (up to 60 lbs) for a fee of $150 per stay. This fee helps cover the additional cleaning required for pet hair.

Pests: Hatteras Island is home to midges, tiny seasonal bugs that are harmless and do not bite, but they can appear in large numbers. To keep them out, we recommend keeping doors closed as much as possible and turning off outdoor lights at night, as light attracts them. We regularly treat the area, but they may still be present outdoors. Bug spray is a great idea for enjoying the deck and outdoor areas.

This is a beautiful property, both inside and out. We visited with our family of six and everyone had their own space but plenty of room in common areas to spend time together. The hosts replied to questions quickly and were very helpful. We would absolutely stay at this property again and recommend it highly.

Hi Kimberly, thank you so much! We’re delighted your family enjoyed the home and had plenty of space to relax together. We appreciate your kind words about our communication and would love to welcome you back anytime!
This property is beautiful inside and out. The trees are stunning! We took many wonderful family photos of the kids in them. The kids caught small fish off the dock day in and out. We caught a fair number of crabs that were keepers. The hosts were incredibly fast in their responses. The kitchen is well stocked. Beds are comfy and the natural light in the house is beautiful. We really loved the screened in sun room, the breeze was pretty much constant and it made for a great place for cousins to come to visit and play games for some down-time. We will stay here again I am sure.
