About this property

This Beauty of an Island Home is in the best location on Hatteras Island!

Make yourself at home in this beauty of a beach house. A Cargo Lift for grocery & luggage makes the task a breeze. The hot tub is open all year and the saltwater pool is open when the outdoor temperature is 75+. In an ideal location, centrally located on a very thin strip of the island for awesome views and a quick walk to the Beach or the Sound. An 8 minute walk to the Ocean (with a beach cart), and a 5 minute walk to the Sound where you can launch a kayak or paddle board, (kayak cart provided). (4) Bedrooms, (1) with an ensuite, (3) bathrooms, a game room w/sink & futon, open kitchen with large granite island & super comfy living area on the top floor, carport with outdoor shower with a dressing room & a fish cleaning room with electric, hot & cold water, a pool & hot tub with a shower for rinsing. Sunsets, star filled nights, convenience to activity's and restaurants/pubs make an ideal spot for your vacation. Dine at home by utilizing the outdoor grill and picnic table or enjoy the fully equipped kitchen and balcony on the top floor. There are chairs and a table on the balcony both balcony's. Linens and towels are furnished and the beds are ready for a good nights sleep. Guests furnish their own beach towels or rent them.
The grocery store, Food Lion, is 12 minutes South on route #12. A convenient store is a 5 minute walk to the Blue Whale or 1/2 mile to the Dollar General or Wave's Deli Market. Utilize the outdoor lift for your grocery's and luggage. The cargo lift stops at each floor which you control with a remote. It is a quick walk to the Ocean (a beach cart is provided), and an even quicker walk to the Sound! I provide a special kayak carrier on wheels to launch kayaks or paddle board in the Sound. There are marked paths to both the ocean and the Sound. An in ground private salt water pool with it's own pool shower and a hot tub is always enjoyable. The pool has under water seating . Three stories of awesome! One open balcony with a table and comfortable seating and one screened balcony with table and seating off of the Primary Bedroom. This beach home is super clean and well maintained. The top floor vaulted ceiling, light and airy home welcomes those who enjoy open spaces, clean quarters - and yes, you can actually see out of these salt free windows! The outdoor shower & dressing room is large and private. There is nothing like taking an outdoor shower. Many supplies are ready for you. Love to fish? Wait till you see the fish cleaning room in the carport. It is screened, provides hot & cold water, electric, and a large work bench. Close to the fish cleaning station is a picnic table and charcoal grill. The amenities are geared for those who enjoy the outdoors as well as the comfort of the indoors. Don't rent your equipment. A paddle board, kayaks, bikes, corn hole, beach cart, paddle board/kayak cart, and boogie boards are provided. Some beach chairs provided but there is a Wing store close by for an extra's if needed. You will enjoy the extra care put into this beach home. This is not just your basic beach house rental. U Found Dory has all the extras, just like a real home. The pictures on this site are accurate and up to date.
Safe & secure. Locks on both balcony gates, two secure pool gates, & visible noninvasive outdoor security cameras overlooking the yard and carport where the kayaks, toys, bicycles, and paddle board are located and where your vehicles are parked. No indoor cameras, of course. No other beach home is supplied like this one. Flour, sugar, spices and so much more are supplied. Each guest adds to the pantry which is way cool! Grab a beer out of the frig in the game room. Forgot bug spray? It is probably provided.
Do you enjoy cooking or baking? This kitchen has it all. From crock pot, to lobster pot, pancake griddle, ninja blender, waffle griddle, mixer, pie & cake pans, electric roaster, electric pressure cooker, gravy mixer...you name it! The oven is conventional/air fry/convection.
You will enjoy all the extra touches that take this from a rental house to Your Beach Home. It does not feel like a rental with bare rooms and just the basics.
Owner/Connie, is easily accessible and has added so much to this beach house to make it your beach home.
Come on in and kick your feet up. Let your ideal vacation start here. Become a part of the "regulars" vacation family. Repeat guests are common at this beach home because they enjoy being spoiled. Connie welcomes you! You will be so glad U Found Dory!

Host profile image
I grew up in Copley, Ohio. My love of the ocean brought me to the OBX. I enjoy sharing my beach home so others can create timeless memories with their loved ones.

Why they chose this property

I love the location because I enjoy everything about the water. An 8 minute walk to the left is the OCEAN/BEACH and a 5 minute walk to the right is the SOUND. Guests can enjoy paddle boarding, surfing, boogie boarding, and kayaking. I supply all of these toys and also bikes and corn hole. We love how we are centrally located from the North & the South of the island. Locally are some awesome restaurants on the water. Thirty five minutes North we have major shopping including the Outlets & just 5 minutes to the H2 0BX Water Sports Park. We are 5 minutes from laser, bowling, etc. Twelve minutes South we have more restaurants and a marina for traveling to other islands. You can also visit and experience the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse. Hop on the ferry and take a day run to Ocracoke and you can be back for the picturesque sunset. Within minutes we have restaurants, pubs, live music, karaoke, equipment rentals, jet skis, the ocean/waves, and the Sound for more shallow and calm waters to be enjoyed by all ages. Salvo also has the Salvo Day Use Park which is 5 minutes from us. It has sandy beaches, picnic tables, and warm, calm, shallow waters for the little ones. Yes, we have the perfect location!

What makes this property unique

Our saltwater pool caters to those who have sensitive skin. The saltwater is so soothing. It also has underwater seating areas.
You will be able to enjoy how well this home is maintained. We actually have a lawn which is nice for playing corn hole or enjoying a cookout in the picnic area. The view from the top balcony at night is perfect for enjoying the ocean breeze and the thousands of stars. A telescope is furnished. Our shell garden has a replica Cape Hatteras lighthouse with a functional rotating light which is pretty at night. Lots of these special extras! Oh, did I mention the nice sized outdoor shower with a dressing room? And the cargo lift that saves you from carrying luggage and groceries? We have designated paths to the water and a beach cart. And a kayak cart and a designated area to launch in the Sound.
