About this property

Oceanside Hatteras Island-Fantastic Views, Dog Friendly, Fully Stocked Kitchen

Enjoy one the best beaches on the East Coast. There is no place like Frisco on Hatteras Island/OBX. The Gulf Stream runs right off the coast, making the water almost 10 degrees warmer than OBX towns north of Avon. Relax to the sounds of the surf; build a bonfire on the beach; go surfing, kite sailing or scuba diving; try your hand at surf fishing or join a deep sea fishing trip. You will quickly find out why Hatteras Island beaches are frequently rated in the top 10 of USA beaches.

Cottage has one of the best views on Hatteras--without paying high oceanfront rates!!! Rooftop observation deck has awesome night sky star gazing and sunsets. The cottage has beautiful ocean and bay views and is located in the village of Frisco on Hatteras Island. Cottage is fully furnished three bedrooms (two BRs with queen beds, one BR with four twin bunk beds). There is also a separate den with doors that could be used as a 4th bedroom with a queen futon.

Cottage sleeps 8 to 10 people comfortably and has two full baths plus large outside shower. Lots of updates in the last five years, including kitchen, bathrooms, new flooring, new decking..... Kitchen has been completely remodeled with new cabinets, counters and appliances--dishwasher, stove/oven, microwave, Keurig and regular coffee maker. Also washer/dryer, wet bar with mini frig, charcoal grill, multi level decks with furniture including covered deck with gate for your dog to safely enjoy the ocean breezes. Hang your hammock from the hooks on the covered deck to enjoy an afternoon nap or read your book.

From the newly refinished roof top observation deck you can see miles of beaches and ocean and you can watch the beautiful sunsets over the sound. With Hatteras' dark sky designation, you will find some of the best star gazing. Other amenities included high speed WiFi; TVs in living room and den with cable. Cottage also has a stereo set to local channel for news and music; many board and card games; movies and books. There are ceiling fans in most rooms and central A/C throughout. We allow up to two dogs, up to 60 pounds each. NO CATS or other pets.

It is a short a thirty second walk over the beautiful dunes to the beach. Watch dolphins play in the ocean from the living room or deck. Enjoy the beautiful sunsets over the bay. Let the ocean sounds lull you to sleep. Cottage is on a quiet, dead end road. U shaped driveway holds up to four cars. Some beach chairs/toys provided in the outdoor shower. Only 5-10 minute drive to: : the Cape Hatteras lighthouse, the Canadian Hole for kite boarding/windsurfing/kayaking and the Hatteras ferry to Ocracoke. Multiple great restaurants within a short drive.

Cottage Rents SATURDAY TO SATURDAY ONLY IN PRIME SEASON. Off season dates have more flexibility. Rent direct from owner to avoid all the "extra" fees charged by the local realtors/management agents. Save yourself hundreds of dollars. NC does require collection of sales and occupancy taxes on all rentals.

The Cottage has three bedrooms: two with a queen bed to sleep 2 people each; the third has two sets of bunkbeds for a total of 4 twin beds which could sleep two adults on bottom beds and two children on top or four children using all four bunks. On the top floor is a separate den with door that has a queen futon, so that could be use as an extra bedroom for up to two people.

All beds have pillows and light blankets. Extra pillows and blankets are in bedroom closets. Guests are responsible for bed linens (sheets/pillowcases), towels and any paper goods.

The Frisco area
I have stayed all over the Outer Banks and decided to visit the Frisco area. It was quiet and very quaint. The local shopping and restaurants were just as I expected. We wanted less crowded beaches and faster check-out lines, and that's exactly what we got! I missed going to Ocracoke by ferry as it was rainy and a little cool most of the week, but was by no means disappointed with my stay.

Lovely House
The house was very clean. Kitchen is well-stocked. Plenty of space for up to 8 people. This was our first time staying at OBX and we thoroughly enjoyed the house and the island. Owner was easy to communicate with prior to and during the stay. We had zero issues during the stay.

We loved this house!!
When we originally looked at the pictures of this house we thought it looked a bit dated but the pictures do not do this house justice. It has a very beachy cottagey feel to it. It is very close to the beach and very well stocked with everything that you could need. The outdoor shower was perfect for when we came in from the beach. We brought a hammock with us and hung it on the porch. It was a great place to relax. We also loved the rooftop deck. We made sure to go up there every night to watch the sunset. The owner is very quick to communicate and to answer any questions. As an FYI If you have anybody with you that has mobility issues getting on to the beach might be difficult for them. The pathway over the dunes is very steep and the sand is soft which makes it hard to maneuver. I would definitely recommend staying here and look forward to when we can visit again!

About the host

Hosted by Vigdis Austad

Host profile image
We grew up going to the Jersey shore as a child and then did group rentals at the "shore" after college. My husband is a surfer and always talked about Hatteras. After we married, he took me down to visit. I Immediately fell in love with the pristine beaches and the "no Jersey rules, restrictions or crowds". No beach badges needed, dogs welcome, no trying to find parking (and paying for that too), plus the ability to eat/drink on the beach, have bonfires.....Great freedoms in such a beautiful place in the middle of National Park Land. One rainy day, while he was out surfing, I called a realtor and went to look at houses just to kill some time. This was the third one that I saw and I made an offer on the spot. He came back from surfing and I told him the "news". Both of my kids are now surfers and love the beach. We named it Norwegian Wood because Norway is my heritage, the house is made of wood and, of course, we love the Beatles! We try hard to keep the house updated. In last five years we have put in new decking and siding, completely new kitchen, new bath vanities, new bar counter, new flooring and currently working on new ceilings. This winter we will replace many of the ceiling fans.

Why they chose this property

It was in great shape, clean and had the most incredible views, without paying oceanfront prices. The quick walk over the dune to beach and back home makes it easy with kids. Most of the neighboring houses are owned by long time owners and everyone looks out for each other.

What makes this property unique

The views are the best. It is technically the third lot back from ocean, but currently there are several empty oceanfront lots. So with the way the house is facing, there is no one blocking the view. And, of course, having the wave sounds to lull you to sleep, whether at night or on the hammock, is the absolute best!
