Guests love our remodeled and updated Nantucket style beach cottage! Come enjoy a clean, carefully decorated, vacation get-a-way. Enjoy preparing a dinner of local seafood in the remodeled kitchen and eat out on our screened in porch. Our house is best suited for families or two couples.

We are just blocks from the beach and 1.7 miles from the Sanderling Inn and only 2.2 miles from the village of Duck, NC. A great location for weddings, honeymoons, and family reunions, our OBX beaches were rated #1 by US Travel.

To make your visit more pleasant, we recommend renting Sunday to Sunday during the busy summer season, to avoid the worst of the change over gridlock. Although our listing does allow 5 night stays, these work best in the fall season. We rent weekend to weekend during the high season of June through Labor Day. So arriving on Saturday will mean a departure date of Saturday or Sunday.

A damage deposit is not required but $78 Insurance policy is required.

We start the summer season with beach chairs, umbrella, and wave boards but it is up to guests to replace lost or broken items. We also provide a ping pong table and corn hole game for your enjoyment.

The screened porch as an outdoor picnic table which can be used to eat crabs. Please do not hammer crabs on inside dinning area table.

Pet Policy
Adult, house trained dogs are welcome. We have a two Dog Max. No other pets allowed. Please pay the $85.00 Pet Fee if you are bringing dogs. The house does NOT have an outdoor dog run.

Bugs
We use a professional service to treat the house inside and out with insect specific spray. This service comes quarterly including in the summer. While our cottage is sealed like other houses, our porches are not. We ask that guests keep lights off when not in use to reduce attracting insects. While we clean the exterior of the house throughout the summer we cannot guarantee a bug free / spider free outside experience.

Smoking
Please respect our no-smoking policy for the cottage. You may smoke on the outside porches. Parties are not allowed in the cottage or on the property.

Check in
Once you have paid in full, we will send the address and passcode to enter the house upon arrival. The maid has until 4 PM to clean the house but is usually done between noon to 1 PM. You can park at the house if you arrive early but do not enter until the maid has left the house. Please do not put your food in the refrig. early, before the maid has left, as the maid cleans the refrigerator after each stay.

Weather
The water level is rising on the OBX due to Global Warming. Water may pool in the community during a heavy rain. If heavy rain is forecast for your stay, we recommend bringing rain boots, at least for children, to use to walk to the beach.

Please consider buying carbon offsets to make your travel to and from the OBX carbon neutral.
