About this property
Oceanfront Dog Friendly Rodanthe Home with Private Pool, Hot Tub, and Game Room
OCEANFRONT Rodanthe - Laura Lane - Sister Home: This is one of two nearly identical homes sitting beside each other – rent one or both for your group. Or if this home is already rented for your week, take a look at its sister home Horatio's Hideaway - #177. Directly north of historic Chicamacomico Lifesaving Station on a wonderfully quiet oceanfront lot just a quick stroll from the beach with ocean views on all levels, this home will take you back to the old days on Hatteras Island, when the houses were few and far between and the lifesaving station was the center of activity. With your own stretch of beach frontage and surrounding empty dunes, you'll feel the history soaking in. But modern times won't be far behind. A swimming pool, hot tub, volleyball net and recreation room await you in this 8-bedroom home. On the first level you'll enjoy an oceanfront deck with the hot tub and access to the pool. Three bedrooms and the large game room with pool table and foosball are on this level. On the second level are 4 bedrooms - 2 masters and 2 that share a bath, and all 4 of the bedrooms open onto the mid-level deck with very nice ocean views. The top-level great room is expansive with cathedral ceilings, a half-bath, a home theater system w/surround sound and big ocean views. Cooks will love the modern kitchen with a large breakfast bar and oceanfront dining. On the top floor is another master bedroom with deck access. The top-floor deck offers stunning views and direct access to the sunshine, and CAPTAIN BECK'S is also an ideal home for weddings and events.
New for 2024: New washer and dryer.

The perfect house for our family. We had 14 people, ages 11 to 74. Location was good and the house was lovely and well stocked.

Unfortunately, due to a hurricane evacuation, we were only able to enjoy 4-nights at the property. Even though we had 4 families (8-adults and 8-kids) staying at the house, it felt extremely spacious. Great location, easy access to the beach, fun outdoor spaces, everything was clean and the pool was a refreshing break from the hot sun. Next time we would get the insurance (ouch!) but we'd totally stay here again.

Hi Dana,
We're thriled to hear that you and your family had a wonderful stay, despite the fact that you had to cut your vacation short. We highly recommend the purchase of travel insurance. We really appreciate your review and are thrilled to have provided a 5 star expereince for you. We hope to see you again next year!
Would have liked a bit more flexibility with the check in process - were coming from another rental and had to wait all day till 4pm to get in to the house despite seeing the cleaning crew and such go through the house at 9am. I know there are policies, but would be nice to have some humanity in stuff like this rather than pure process (or at least have someone explain why things happen the way they do rather than just “it’s policy”)

Hi Michael, Thank you for your review and for staying with us at 253 - Captain Beck! We hope you enjoyed your vacation. "Turn days" are incredibly busy days, and while you may have seen the cleaning crew go through, there are several other maintenance checks that occur throughout the day on every single home. We appreciate your patience with us as our teams work hard to ensure you enjoy the best stay possible! We look forward to seeing you again on Hatteras Island! - Your Friends at Surf or Sound Realty

Good for the price
The house was nice overall and we enjoyed our stay. It was not very clean, and the cleaning company definitely didn’t bother to clean under furniture, and everything felt a bit rundown, but it was still a good value for the price compared to nicer/more expensive areas. The beach access was easy, but the beach itself is not maintained well - it’s more of a wild area. Lots of floating debris from houses that are washing into the ocean, which meant we were not able to go into the ocean one day since there were huge boards with nails floating around. And a dead pelican laid on the beach for several days before a neighbor cleaned it up. Management was very responsive to some of our requests. I wash check in was remote so we didn’t have to drive to pick up and drop off a key.

Surf or Sound is terrible
I understand everything going on with Covid-19 but we tried to call and email multiple times to get pool heat and no one would return calls or emails. The cleaning service was terrible, we found cups and bowls in the cupboards that were not washed and had old food and mold in them. You should also note that the house has a jack and Jill bathroom.

Hi Lisa,
We are dismayed to hear of the places we fell short for you. We appreciate the housekeeping details you shared and are working tirelessly to address these. Please accept our apologies for your call not being returned. This year our phone and message volume has increase dramatically, with Covid-related questions and adjustments to travel plans, and at times, the volume exceeds our capacity to reply in the prompt manner to which we always strive. Thank you for your feedback, and please know that your concerns are our concerns. We hope, with some time, you will give us the opportunity to earn your trust and enthusiasm again with another stay with us.
Our stay at Captain Beck’s was wonderful. The house was so clean and organized. The house had things that I had asked about but was told it didn’t. Nice surprise.
The pool cleaning was spectacular and the staff so nice.
Brittany was fabulous for contact. We also had to use the office printer and she was so gracious in her obvious busy day.
There were a few things that didn’t work:
The oven, which didn’t get fixed until Thursday, a bummer when you’re only there for a week ending Friday essentially.
The ice makers. Both ice makers did not make ice, the downstairs ice maker was half filled with solid ice which we defrosted.
The back board on the basketball goal needs an exterminator. We called 3 times to get a wasp nest removed from inside the back board. Our basketball loving grandson has an extreme allergy to wasps and was unable to play. We sprayed twice but the nest is inside the back board. Just replace it. Honestly the deciding factor for Captain Becks was the basketball hoop.
We enjoyed our stay. We had a great week. Thank you so much.
