This is a real sound front beachfront property the water is directly behind the house this is not a semi sound front or sound side property no long walks down never ending piers to get to the waterfront only to find out usually its just high grassy wetlands or marsh claiming to be beachfront as is the case with most sound front properties on the island. Waterfront views and watersports are unobstructed there is no new jug handle bridge behind this property like northern rodanthe mirlo beach / area and with a private beach there are no worries about crowded public kite spots or marshy shorelines With 20 foot floor to ceiling windows in the living area this home has some of best sound side viewing pleasure on the island. Linens and towels are provided at no additional cost No owner, administrative, booking, additional guest or reservation fees.

Waves, Rodanthe and Salvo are the villages closest to attractions in Manteo, Nags Head and Kill Devil Hills. This luxury resort home is located less than a mile from Real Watersports and Kitty Hawk Kite complex's as well as walking distance to shopping and several restaurants. 4wd beach access ramp only 2 miles away house is right on the bike /walk path of the tri villages Hatteras Island encapsulates some of the best things the Outer Banks has to offer: history, natural beauty, exciting watersports, and quaint shops that stock items found exclusively in this region. Known for great fishing and clean beaches, Hatteras consistently attracts vacationers who are looking for a laid-back atmosphere by the water. Places to explore on Hatteras Island include the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge, the Cape Hatteras National Seashore, Canadian Hole (famous among kite surfers), the towns of Rodanthe, Waves, Salvo, Avon, Buxton, Frisco and the extremely popular Hatteras Village. Cape Hatteras National Seashore The Cape Hatteras National Seashore is natural splendor at its best. As part of the National Park Service, this area that extends from Nags Head to Ocracoke Island boasts sparkling beaches, gorgeous sunsets, and lush maritime forests. At night, the pitch-black skies contrast the bright stars for some of the best star-gazing on the East Coast. Here, a plethora of activities can be explored: swimming, hiking, kayaking, fishing, boating and more. Drive your 4-wheel-drive vehicle onto the beach to easily access the water, or enlist the services of a local horseback riding company for an exhilarating tour of the area. It’s recommended that some time is spent in this gem of a park to appreciate all that it has to offer. Fish Along 50 Miles of Shoreline Fishermen are drawn to Hatteras Island mainly because the Gulf Stream is only a short 15-mile boat ride off shore. The waters of this natural phenomenon are home to many species of fish that anglers love to catch. Few places have fishing as great as that which can be found off of these local shores. Hatteras is renowned as a destination for fishermen of any ability from across the nation. And though surf-fishing or pier fishing can be a rewarding experience on the island, most prefer to try fishing off-shore via a private charter boat rental or by booking a spot on a fishing boat. Plus, if you are staying in a vacation home, you’ll probably have an adequately stocked kitchen to prepare your catch for the family dinner. Good luck hooking your catch! Cape Hatteras Lighthouse Rising up 210 feet in the air with swirling black and white stripes and topped with a glorious Fresnel lens is the iconic Cape Hatteras Lighthouse. Completed in 1870, this structure is the tallest brick lighthouse in the United States and one of the most famous in the world. The light emitted from this beacon extends 20 miles out to sea—giving a warning to all mariners of the perilous Diamond Shoals that lurk just off the coast of Hatteras Island. Interestingly, almost 20 years ago, it too needed to be protected. In 1999, the lighthouse and its adjoining structures made headlines when they were successfully relocated nearly 3,000 feet inland to safeguard them from the encroaching sea. Visitors can still climb the lighthouse most months of the year, but keep in mind that children must be more than 42 inches tall. Off Road Vehicle Use on Cape Hatteras Many off-road vehicles (ORVs) may drive on the beaches of Cape Hatteras National Seashore, but only on specific routes established by the National Park Service (NPS). ORVs must be registered, licensed, insured, have no more than two axles, and carry a low-pressure tire gauge, shovel, jack and jack support board. Each ORV must purchase either a 10-day permit or an annual permit to drive on the NPS beach routes. Permits may be bought online at www.recreation.gov by searching for Cape Hatteras Off-Road Vehicle or in person at select visitor centers in Nags Head, Buxton, and Ocracoke. 4WD vehicles are recommended for beach driving, and tire pressure should be lowered to 20psi. Only specific vehicles are allowed on the beach (no motorcycles, campers, or ATVs) so please check restrictions before purchasing your permit. In addition we are taking all possible measures when cleaning following all guidelines of both the CDC and world health organization .

Beautiful home away from home!! We really enjoed our stay great home and great location we may be back next year
5.0
Pleanty of room and space for kids to roam and play. Great sunsets and moonrises. Fishing in the sound is not bad either. Somewhat secluded too (even though you're in town). We were there Sept in the offseason, but pizza was right down the street for a cheaper meal, or Neptunes for a little more exotic dish w/ cocktails.
Property manager was quick to address issues and questions. We had a great time.

We had a wonderful time at this property. It's so pretty, you don't want to ever leave to go out sightseeing. We stayed on the back porch for 3 days looking at the kite surfers and the gorgeous sunsets. It's in a perfect location and we ventured to Corolla to see the wild horses one day and then went to Ocracoke the next day via ferry. We made wonderful memories and after staying on the "sound" side I don't know if we will ever go back to the ocean side. It's just so peaceful and relaxing. We did have a small issue on the day we checked in with the internet not working but the owner stayed in constant contact with us until it was operational again. He even checked in on us midweek telling us about the riptides. Very nice!
5.0
Just what we were looking for- lots of outdoor fun in a safe environment. Probably the best access to the sound we’ve had in the 30 years we’ve been coming to OBX.

This home is nestled somewhere between Rodanthe and Waves and has some of the best views and real water access to Pamlico Sound, as advertised.
The house was spacious enough for myself and 6 "kids" aged 16-21. We brought SUP and kayak and a giant float that we anchored quite easy. Active!
We stayed during the beginning of the island's offseason so some places were closed. However, there was plenty of everything you need at Waves Market or North Beach Groceries. Everyone is chill and relaxed. No one is in a hurry on island time.
When Austin's Seafood opened mid-week we finally had the perfect seafood boil right at home. I brought everything, except the seafood, from home, but Austin's will sell you the complete package with potatoes and corn and spices if you need them. Donuts and Pizza from the Dough Shack was really close and equally delicious. Good winds restaurant was close and good, but I really can't wait to get back to the friendly staff and spicy tuna bites at Neptune's, which we discovered on our last night.
The location is perfect for exploring other parts of the island. We went to the beach in Rodanthe almost daily. We made the short drive to Pea Island to explore the wildlife preserve and found a secluded gem of a beach hidden by a dune near the bridge to Rodanthe. The daytrip to Nags Head was somewhat disappointing since the riptides kept us from swimming but we did some shopping and ate at Bros., which is really good.
It was great! We will return! South 12!

It was very relaxing to sit on the back deck to watch the sunrise and the sunset over the sound. I do wish the description of the private beach area was a little clearer as its not really a private beach as its big rocks and boulders lining the water. Overall, it was a nice stay.
5.0
Our family truly enjoyed staying here, everything was clean and fresh, the kitchen cookware was top notch, the house had essentially everything we could have needed and the owner was very quick to respond and send out a technician on the weekend to assist us with the HVAC!
This was truly a five-star experience that we hope to repeat in the future!!

Beautiful Place, super views(s), sunsets,. Large Balcony.
The house can sleep 8-10 people easily however misses chair(only 6) for the dinning area, can be managed with outside chairs at the limit. The CHARCOAL BBQ is at the limit(but mangeable) if more than 6 people.
OVERALL EXPERIENCE SUPER, For ALL the guests during our time there !

We completely enjoyed our stay. The house was beautiful and fully stocked with all amenities we needed. Contact with the owner was excellent, he responded to questions quickly! A very nice addition would be an outside table for the deck.

Open communications and quick responses to my questions. We were a family of 5 adults so roomy and plenty of privacy. We enjoyed grilling out, sitting on deck, and sunsets. Men enjoyed kite surfing in the sound and they were happy to walk out kites - can walk out in waist deep water for about 1/4 mile. Outdoor shower was great in removing wet suits and rinsing/drying off before entering the house. Kitchen well equipped as we ate all meals there as many places were closed for the season. Plenty of parking for our 2 vehicles.
House was as pictured.

We definitely enjoyed our stay here! The house is huge! Lots of open space for our family to hangout and enjoy games and visiting. Absolutely loved having our own private beach! Everyone could come in and out as they pleased and we didn't have to haul the beach stuff back and forth!! The water was great for our younger crew. No rip currents or waves to contend with. The adults were able to paddle board and kayak easily. The rocks and oyster shells are rough on the feet but after you get past the first foot or so its just sand. Our only complaint was there was a lack of bath towels. There was only one bath towel per person but there is a washing machine. Some of the towels were large and fluffy but some were very small and thin! We brought a few extra pots and were glad we had those with us! Definitely do your grocery shopping before arriving to the island as there is nothing out there but we absolutely loved the area and the lack of commercialism. The owner is helpful and very responsive! We are definitely booking again next year!!

Great home, huge vaulted ceilings and many windows. The views are superb. We had excellent communication with the owner who was very responsive to our small requests for kitchen items. We loved the kite boarding lessons and a hike on Pea Island. The master mattress needs to be updated.

The house was clean and the views out to the sound were spectacular. The huge windows and n the sound side made you feel like you are one with the outdoors, even when you are indoors. Host was very responsive and helpful. Beds were very comfortable. The tv viewing area is a nice set up for the whole group to enjoy. Perhaps our favorite was watching all the kite boarders who rent from two locations very near by. S much fun to watch. We have long been oceanfront fans, but the sound really won us over with this house.

Big house that accommodated our large group of 11 people—the kids enjoyed the inside balcony to the second floor, endlessly throwing stuffed animals up and down to each other.
Kitchenware could be updated but not a huge issue for us. The sound side was nice and quiet and the kids enjoyed wading in the water. Beach access just down the road and easy to get to.

I’m 50 years old and this is by far the best family vacation we have ever had. The property owner is phenomenal. From the moment you book the rental to days after the service is hands down the best. My daughter misplaced a ring during our visit and the owner has went above and beyond to help us find it. That aside, the house is breathtaking and the Outer Banks sound side is second to none. Thank you for sharing your property with my family.

We had a wonderful experience! House was great, owners were fantastic! The owner was excellent with instructions for the house, the house was beautiful! We enjoyed swimming in the sound and watching the kiteboarding. We also made the very short drive to the ocean several days and enjoyed it as well! The public area was never crowded and was very accessible. Awesome ice cream shop and pizza place within walking distance and an excellent souvenir shop as well. We had a wonderful time!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at this property. The house is beautiful, with a huge vaulted space for the living room, and fantastic views of the Sound through a wall of windows. We had a weekful of wonderful sunsets over the Sound, as well as great kite-boarding watching from the large deck. I highly recommend this house!

We loved how the property was right on the sound with great views of the water and wind surfers. The deck was fabulous to sit on to watch the sunsets. This was our first time not on the beachside and we really enjoyed it though I’m sure in the middle of the summer it gets very hot facing west. We liked that we didn’t have to deal with elevators or many stairs to unload and load up the car. We found the owners very prompt in response to our questions and extremely helpful as they reached out to us to make sure we had enough gas to get home since the gas shortage occurred the week that we were there. Our only complaint was that we found the beds and living room sofas a bit uncomfortable and in need of replacing ( one sofa out of the three in the living area looked to be new).
