A brightly painted main room with a vaulted ceiling makes this modest home seem much bigger than it is. It has a completely equipped sunny kitchen with a dishwasher, microwave, enormous coffee maker, pod coffee maker, french press, and coffee grinder.

For those who adore to shower outside, there is a entirely private hot and cold shower under the home accessible from the screened-in porch.

The two porches make it painless to find a peaceful spot to appreciate the island breezes or cuddle up with a good book. The cavernous back screen porch is great as an early morning getaway with a cup of coffee or for appreciating a ballgame or meal with the family. “Just like sitting in a tree home!” The front porch, with two huge Adirondack chairs located under a fan, makes a ideal spot for people-watching.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Ocracoke vacation rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation rental 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To get the largest vacation home within your budget, we suggest booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Ocracoke area visitor guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Ocracoke visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing and booking your Ocracoke rental home:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your trip dates, and select a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. After Math: Comfortable open floor plan and screened porch has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what bed configuration is best for your group.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's an individual Ocracoke attraction you are enamored with, keep an eye out for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

More considerations:

• Add the property manager's information to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Upon check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be respectful. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a wonderful time? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
