Ozzie's Charm
Ozzie's Island Hideaway is a home with genuine history, and that history shows in all the ways that make it special — and a few that make it one-of-a-kind. Like many beloved island cottages that have stood for decades, the home has settled comfortably into its surroundings over the years. The floors have a gentle lean to them, and the doors have that endearing, slightly off-square quality that only comes with age. The bathrooms have a step-up entry that gives them a cozy, boat-cabin feel. Guests who have a soft spot for original OBX cottages will fall in love with these details.

With peaceful surroundings, unforgettable water views, and all the charm of Hatteras Island just beyond your door, Ozzie's Island Hideaway is a vacation you'll want to return to year after year.
