Eureka is Always a Bright Idea for a Sunny Beach Vacation
It's the little things that make a home so special. If you're looking for a modest beach home close to the ocean, you'll shout “Eureka” when you visit this comfortable chalet-style Ocean Sands home. Only 50 feet from the beach via the boarded walkway, this home also features a wealth of community perks including tennis courts, a family-friendly neighborhood, and painless access to all of Corolla's favorite attractions. Eureka offers a great layout inside with a loft and a splendid ocean view. Surround yourself with family and friends while calming on one of the two levels of furnished decking, or getaway to your own private bedroom for a little rest and relaxation. With a bright and cheery kitchen and living area, and pops of color throughout, it's simple to ease into a vacation state of mind at this breezy vacation home. Ideal for oceanside retreats that are close to the beach, spending a vacation at this Corolla hideaway is always a “Eureka!” moment.

On the Ground Level of this adorable beach bungalow, take advantage of the Outdoor Shower that's ideal for rinsing off after a day at the beach, which is just 1 min. away! This means that surf and sand are never too far, making this the ideal spot for a beach-centered vacation filled with early morning walks along the water with the sunrise and hunting for ghost grabs in the evening as the stars make their way into the brilliantly clear nighttime sky.

On the main Middle Level, appreciate a cozy Living Area with beach-themed furnishings and aesthetically pleasing decor around a huge Flat Screen TV that makes movie nighttime with the family a given. Eureka will feel like your home away from home as you whip up a delicious meal in the modern Kitchen to savor together in the Dining Area, with seating for 6, or out on the Mid-Level Covered deck with amazing vistas of the dunes. Just imagine yourself waking up in the morning to the sounds of the waves and the smell of the surf as the birds welcome in the day with the rising sun. Get some rest in the Double Bedroom and settle in the kiddos in the Bedroom with a Bunk Bed Set and a Twin Platform Bed with its own Twin Size Trundle.

For some additional privacy, make your way up the loft with a table ideal for board games or catching up on work and cozy Full Sized Futon that creates the ideal place to curl up with a book while the sunlight filters in through the windows. Near the loft is a Queen Master Bedroom with a Private Bathroom, making this the ideal hideaway from some tranquility and peaceful while on vacation. And when it's time for more ocean air and a calming cup of tea in the evening, head back outside to the Crow's Nest overlooking the dunes where you can breathe in the rejuvenating ocean air as you watch the moon emerge over the water. Booking your vacation at Eureka today may be your best idea yet!

A Stay in Corolla is Always a Great Idea
You'll relish in the local history one day and relax on the broad, unobstructed beaches the next when you stay in the handsome town of Corolla! On the northern beaches, you can go on a 4x4 tour to discover the Corolla Wild horses in their natural habitat and then stop by the Wild Horse Fund museum to learn about their origin. For another adventure, stop by the Corolla Adventure Park to test your endurance on an aerial obstacle course. Kids will appreciate the go-kart racing at Corolla RaceWay. Spend the day shopping by the close by TimBuck II Shopping Village with plenty of dining options for when you get hungry such as Mike Dianna's Grille Room, La Dolce Vita, North Banks Restaurant & Raw Bar, Big Buck's Homemade Ice Cream, and Mama Easley's—just to name a few! When you're not appreciating a meal at one of the many great eateries in the area, step into the past by exploring the historic Whalehead Club or climbing to the top of the Currituck Lighthouse for an extraordinary 360-degree view of the surrounding town. There's no such thing as a boring day when you stay at Eureka!

Tips and Tricks to get the best rental home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• To find the largest vacation home within your budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Currituck restaurants and activities.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many property management companies supply Currituck area visitor guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the perfect vacation rental in the Currituck area:

• First and foremost, have your family commit to the best dates and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. 1686 Eureka * 50ft to Beach * has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property owner before booking the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to determine what configuration is best for your trip.
• If there's a specific Currituck destination you love, search for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Note any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your peaceful home. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
