The home sits in the middle of our little island 30 miles off the mainland accessible only by ferry boat or airplane.

There are 3 ferry lines that service this island. Cedar Island, Swan Quarter and Hatteras. Cedar Island and Swan Quarter car ferries require reservations and a modest fee (see the NC Ferry Reservations website to reserve your date and time). The Hatteras car ferry is complimentary and first-come, first-serve. You may have to wait in line at Hatteras. The schedule for all ferries and reservations for Cedar Island and Swan Quarter are on the NC Ferry website (ferry.ncdot.gov)

No franchises are allowed on island so all the fish markets and eateries are locally owed as are most all the businesses, family owned and operated. Eateries get their fresh seafood directly from the local fishermen daily.
There are various festivals and special events throughout the season. Check out the Ocracoke Observer community newspaper website (ocracokeobserver.com) or Facebook page for up to date information on restaurant openings/closings and special events. This home sits within walking distance to it all.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a family friendly space with home rules and peaceful hours posted in the rental agreement that you MUST read prior to booking. It's not a loud event home and OWNER reserves the right to cancel the booking (removing the guests), with or without refund, of any guests who do not abide by these home rules or demonstrate a lack of care towards the property or others while here..
