Looking for a great family vacation in the OBX 4x4 area? This house is in the sand and you MUST have a 4x4 vehicle to access this property. It is mandatory that you air down your tires to 18PSI or less. Highly recommended that you carry a shovel in your vehicle. There is a FREE rapid air fill station 1.5 miles south of the beach entrance in the historic Corolla park.

This home boasts panoramic views and amenities that will make you never want to leave. "Once Upon A Tide" is the perfect place to call home for your stay. Beautiful views of the ocean to the East, awesome views of Penny Hill to the South (NC's 2nd largest sand dune), views of the community in the distance to the North, and great sunsets over the Sound from the top deck to the West.

Linens (bed sheets and towels) are NOT PROVIDED. Each bed has pillows, a quilt, and a light blanket. If you would like linens or towels we suggest renting from Moneysworth Beach Equipment and Linen Rentals in Corolla (they deliver).

For your entertainment, there is a pool table, two official cornhole sets, large DVD movie collection, books/puzzles for your family to enjoy. This property is a hot spot for the local wild horses. They like the vegetation in the yard and walk under the deck on the 1st floor.

This four-wheel-drive home is under 4 miles North of the 4x4 beach access. The house is a short easy walk across to our pristine northern beaches (approximately 500 feet). Carova is renowned for its wide, clean beaches - some of the most beautiful on the OBX.

Experience the Outer Banks the way people did years ago! No roads, no distractions, no complications - just miles of gorgeous coastline. Relax, unwind and reconnect with loved ones. Keep an eye out for wild horses grazing or dolphins playing in the surf from the colorful dolphin-watching chairs on the top floor deck!

This home is only accessible with a 4 wheel drive vehicle. Most All-wheel drive vehicles are not capable of navigating the soft sand and off-road beach driving conditions. A friendly reminder to "air down" your tires to 15lbs or less. To find out more about 4x4 access and driving on the beach visit www.visitcurrituck.com/visitor-info/beach-driving-tips.
