The SHELTER is about 100 yards from Teaches Lair Marina and Grill. You can book your fishing trip or just visit before 4pm to see the days catch. The typical catches are blue marlin, sailfish, dolphin, red drum, wahoo, kings and spanish, bluefish, tuna, and grouper.

The Outer Banks were the first part of the Atlantic to be visited by English settlers, principally Sir Walter Raleigh’s expedition in the 1580’s.Through centuries of isolation the people inhabiting the outer banks have developed a way of life all their own. Hatteras near its southern tip is within 12 miles of the Gulf Stream is known as “Game Fish Junction” because abundance of northern and southern species of fish. It is off Cape Hatteras that the Labrador Current collides with the warm tropical water of the Gulf Stream.

We chose the Shelter for our 21st anniversary vacation. The location is amazing! To be so close to the end of the island, in a true OBX beach cottage, right by my the marinas and with a remarkable view of the ferries coming and going is just what we needed!!! The fairy garden was a beautiful surprise that I throughly enjoyed exploring. And the walk to the beach…..it’s what you see in paintings!!! The house was comfy and the fenced in yard was nice for the 4 legged child. It’s charm is a rare find!

We just stayed at The Shelter again, and it was every bit as wonderful as we remembered! Deb is always so great to work with — responsive, kind, and clearly takes pride in making sure guests have a great experience.The house was spotless when we arrived and just as comfortable and inviting as our first stay. It truly feels like coming back to a favorite place. We also noticed the upgraded toilet in the master bath, which was a really nice improvement and appreciated touch.Once again, we had an amazing time and look forward to coming back in the future!

Absolutely perfect property! The property was amazing from the view to the easy stroll to the beach. It's pet friendly and the doggos had a blast. We couldn't be happier with our stay! It was very well equipped and had everything a family would need and then some. We will most definitely be back.

We had such a wonderful time staying at “The Shelter.” This house truly feels like a home.The kitchen is stocked with everything you could possibly need—and then some. It is by far the best-equipped kitchen of any rental we've stayed in. The furnishings are cozy and welcoming, and the king bed was extremely comfortable (we can only vouch for that one since it was just the two of us!).The location is unbeatable: beautiful views from the deck, a quick walk to the beach, and a short drive to the ORV access ramp.As great as all of that was, the fenced backyard ended up being our favorite part. The thoughtful layout with direct access from the deck was perfect for our dogs, and the Fairy Garden was such a charming and unexpected delight to explore.We truly can’t say enough good things about this home and fully plan to book again in the future.Thank you, Deb, for sharing your wonderful home with us.

Great Escape

My family went to the Shellter for spring break this year. What a great escape. The beaches were vacant, full of shells, and our dogs had a blast in the ocean. What a great house and great location. We loved all the special touches and character of the house. We'll definitely stay again!!

This place was perfect for us and our two dogs. It was clean. A fenced in yard for the dogs to play. The marina was across the street. After a long day of fishing it was just a short walk to the house. The host was quick to answer questions and made us feel welcomed. I will definitely get this place when we come back.

House was very nice. Was stocked well with all cooking ware. The upper deck was really nice with a great view. Outdoor shower is nice, could use a little more coverage in my opinion. Great little neighborhood with close beach access. Several of the beach acces were damaged and closed while we were there.
