The Studio is a really unique and gorgeous property, both inside and out. Located in the heart of the village within walking distance to all the harbor front attractions, The Studio is tucked away, shady and private. The multi level patio is located among live oaks and cedar trees.

The Studio is an adult only, pet complimentary, smoke complimentary space. Smoking is allowed outside.


This building was constructed in 1993 and used for 15 years as a working art studio. It is set back off the road, amidst giant live oak and cedar trees, and sits alongside my home, one of the islands designated historic homes. The two buildings are joined by an open breezeway behind the main gate, but when guests are in residence in the studio, we both have separate entrances on opposite sides of the property. The Studio provides all the amenities of home in a private, peaceful and tree shaded setting, with tons of attention to detail. I have tried to make the Studio somewhere I would want to stay, well cared for with tons of personality.

You enter through a completely enclosed multi leveled courtyard space complete with artwork, jasmine, hot/cold out door shower and grille. There are chairs for calming and a dining table for mealtime. Your parking is right outside the gate. Inside, the studio is colorful, unique and furnished for your complete comfort with one queen bed downstairs, a double bed in the upstairs loft space, couch, flat screen TV, entirely equipped kitchen and bath with tub and shower. There is a desk and office chair ideal for working while away! The Studio provides full linen service.

This is the ideal charming and private hideaway for two. The Studio is located within walking distance of the Coffee Company, Zillie's, the harbor front and all downtown stores and eateries. We ask that you do not store or charge electric bicycles on the property.

All Studio guests are strongly urged to buy cancellation insurance through Vacation Rental By Owner. We are an island 30 miles off the coast. Things happen, to people and to the island. The ferry service to the island can be affected at any time in unpredictable ways restricting access to the island. And, we have hurricanes from June through October. Please protect yourselves.

This property is offered by Premier Partner, Debbie Wells, who also manages three other Vacation Rental By Owner properties: Dicie's House on Howard Street #1899844, SoundHouse #2203510 and CanalHouse #2760936.

Tips to get the optimal rental home experience:

When to visit Ocracoke & When to book:

Booking your rental up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Ocracoke. Booking a rental in Spring or Fall is a great way to save on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Ocracoke vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.

You can also find Ocracoke visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Finding the perfect rental home in the Ocracoke area:

• Start by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Beautiful, Historic and Private Retreat for Couples-limit 2 people has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is normally available online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property manager before you book the home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what bed configuration is best for your trip.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or costs might be applied to your contract.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to find nearby rentals.

Additional considerations:

• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Document any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected everything. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on good reviews to drive new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
