CANALFRONT Avon – Tarpon Ln. – Nestled in a tree lined cul-de-sac sits DRIFTER’S DOCK, the idyllic spot for your Hatteras Island vacation.

Fish for hours off the private two tier dock, for easy water access. The screened porch offers a space to relax and enjoy nature.

Underneath the house is a large concrete area for parking, outdoor games and a large storage room for your sports gear. Gather the family for a short walk to the beach. Wash off in the outdoor shower or use one of the two convenient hose spigots after a sandy day at the beach.
