About this property
New 4BR Home| 4 night stay available for fall| Ocean Views | Pets | 4x4 Beach
The Salty Dog: Fall Weekends Made for Sandy Paws and Sea Air Welcome to The Salty Dog — a brand new 2025 home nestled in the wild, unspoiled 4x4 section of Carova Beach on the Northern Outer Banks of North Carolina. With four bedrooms, three and a half baths, a private swimming pool, and sweeping ocean views from two levels of wraparound decking, this is the Carova vacation your family has been dreaming of.
A 4-wheel drive vehicle is required to reach The Salty Dog — and that's exactly what keeps this stretch of beach so special. No traffic, no crowds, just wide open Atlantic shoreline, star-filled skies, and the famous Corolla wild horses that frequently graze nearby. The Salty Dog sits approximately 6.5 miles up the 4x4 beach, as far from the hustle of everyday life as you can get.
**The Home** Spread across three levels with 2,061 square feet, The Salty Dog sleeps up to 8 guests comfortably. The top floor king suite features an ensuite bath and private deck access — wake up to ocean views and the sound of the surf before heading up to the bright, open great room with incredible Atlantic vistas. The fully stocked kitchen with granite countertops and island seating is ready for multiple chefs, and the screened-in porch just off the kitchen is the perfect spot for morning coffee with the ocean breeze.
On the second level you'll find two queen bedrooms with deck access (one with ensuite bath), plus a fun bunk room with a triple twin set — great for kids. A full laundry room rounds out this level.
**Outside** The private pool is open mid-May through end of September. Two levels of decking offer incredible Atlantic views, outdoor furniture, a charcoal BBQ grill, outdoor shower, and beach chairs for five. Two beach parking passes are included.
**Pets Welcome** The Salty Dog welcomes up to two small/medium dogs (restrictions on age, weight, and breed apply). A per-pet fee and refundable security deposit are required. No cats please.
**Short Stays Available** Three-night minimum stays are available in the spring and late fall — perfect for a quick beach escape that won't break the bank!
Linens and towels provided. No smoking. No graduation groups or events. Parking at the house is free and unlimited.
