(SEE OUR TWO VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE THAT SHOW THE HOME LAYOUT! SEARCH FOR: Tour of "the piper's nest" part one and Tour of "the piper's nest" part two... posted by Tracy Blowers.)

Wake up every morning and drink your drink of choice while appreciating a glorious ocean view! Three of our five bedrooms offer an ocean view (moms and dads claim those!), while our entire, sunny, window filled Great Room offers the same spectacular option.

Step onto the wrap around deck to savor, the sight, sounds and smell of the ocean! A fast change into swimsuits and you can appreciate it all from the hot tub!

Our home is the ideal option - all of the benefits of "ocean view" without getting overwhelmed by the crowd and the traffic! How far away is the ocean? Less than five mins.. It's really close!

A big kitchen with a sizable snack bar, where marvelous food & drinks can be appreciated while you chat with friends and family. We have a completely supplied kitchen, beach chairs, games, cards, books - whatever you need to relax, it's here. There is a washer and dryer at the home as well (not that you want to do laundry, but you can. :). Appreciate our nearly 3,000 square foot space to spread out at nighttime and connect during the day. Sun, Ocean, Great Food & Beverage of Choice = Relaxation!

NOTE: IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT YOU HAVE A 4WD VEHICLE so you can conveniently drive to our home. Our home is on Carova Beach, which is the ideal getaway - far enough away from the downtown OBX craziness without being too far away if you want to experience the crazy! Carova Beach is also a Wild Horse Preserve, so plan on seeing plenty of wild horses during your stay!

We have a three day minimum in the off season; minimum 7 day stay during the summer season.

It's a 7 mile drive down the beach - not a bad commute with a view like that! If you don't want to drive on the beach, there are other options to get you there (i.e. you can use a "park & ride" service to and from the home - there are costs associated with that. I can provide more info for you, if you'd like).

We will give you more information in our "Welcome" letter on tips & tricks for driving on the beach, as well as what we have at the home and what you may want to bring. And, please, reach out to us with any questions. We're here to make your stay just what you need it to be so you can relax and recharge.

How to book the best Currituck vacation property experience:

When to book & When to go:

• In the Currituck area, The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your rental up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Reserving a rental home in Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Many management companies supply Currituck area visitors guides which include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Ocean View, Well Appointed Home. Pet & hot tub fees included in price! has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck rentals search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible online. If not, contact the property management company before you book the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what is optimal for your trip.
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or costs applied to your contract.

• During check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent feedback to drive more bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
