The location is perfect, on the beach, stepped back in the dune for protection, walking distance to great restaurants and movie theater. Wright Brothers Memorial a mile away and Avalon Pier is a short walk. Bring your bikes with NC12 at your backdoor and great bike trails you can bike to many attractions. Nags Head is a few miles away and Jockeys Ridge is the same. Once your at Timeless Retreat you may never want to leave! However, if you want to go for a one of a kind Dune Front drive head down to Hatteras for the day and walk to the top of Buxton Light House. If you have a 4 wheel drive vehicle head north and spend the day in Carova with the wild horses. Want to shop the outlet mall cruise down NC12 and cross over Croatan Highway for best shopping. There are endless restaurants within a few miles from Yankee Retreat. This is the perfect location for all your summer dreams. Out of the traffic problems of Duck and Corolla and in to the beauty of the beach and majestic sunrises. Make it yours and book today!

About the host

Hosted by Greg Nelson

Host profile image
I love to bring new life to old structures. So for this 1940's cottage we plan to keep many of the vintage features with lots of upgrades. Plans are in place to move living space to second floor with additional windows for expansive views. Add another bedroom and two more bathrooms, enlarge kitchen and second floor decks. We will also add more views and improved floor plan.

Why they chose this property

The house speaks my passion to save and rejuvenate life into tired structures. My surfing buddies have nick named it the "Surf Shack". The surf break off the Avalon pier and directly in front of the Timeless Retreat lines up for a perfect surf session.

What makes this property unique

One of a kind Covered Porch with Bahama Shutters. Beach deck is level with the dune making a walk to the beach easy.
