Welcome to Blue Crab Cottage, a charmingly furnished, dog-friendly home in the Magnolia Bay neighborhood of the Currituck Club. With a variety of close by community amenities, shopping and dining within walking distance, and even trolley service to the beach, you can literally park your car in the driveway and leave it there during your entire stay if you choose. After a day of sun, sand and surf, the outdoor fun can continue back at the home with your very own private pool and hot tub. Inside, relax in the open-concept great room that features soaring, two-story ceilings and a wall of south-facing windows for generous natural light. The gas fireplace can be used during the off-season for staying comfortable on cooler Spring and Fall evenings. The living area leads out to a striking screened porch overlooking the secluded backyard surrounded by mature trees. When you're not dining out, prepare meals in the kitchen with bespoke, retro-inspired appliances by Big Chill. Ceramic tile runs throughout the entire main level, ideal for sandy feet and paws returning from the beach. All three bedrooms are conveniently located together on the top level. The cavernous primary suite provides access to a private sun deck and ensuite bath with dual vanities and a jetted tub.
Blue Crab Cottage is conveniently located near the community's south entrance, just a four-min. walk to the South Beach Pool and Tennis Center. You'll also be a fast trolley ride to the beach and once there, you'll be greeted by a valet who can assist you with carrying all of your gear (Memorial Day - Labor Day). Shopping and dining are also within walking distance, including Metropolis Tapas Restaurant, Bacchus Wine & Gourmet Shop and Driftwood Coffee Company - all located just outside the gate. Other Currituck Club amenities include shuffleboard, volleyball, basketball and a exercise center. Golf enthusiasts can book a tee-time or clinic at the world-class 18-hole championship course designed by Rees Jones.
Animals allowed - dogs only. No smoking/vaping. Fireplace for off-season use only. Trolley runs from Memorial Day thru Labor Day. Please refer to the Rental Agreement while reviewing Rules & Policies for pool opening/closing dates.

How to book the best Corolla vacation property experience:
Cost saving strategies:
- In the Currituck area, The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
- To get the best value, shift your family's Currituck vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
- Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
- Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
- Often, rental management companies supply Currituck area visitors guides which will include money-saving 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 area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.
Choosing the perfect rental in Corolla:
- Choose your vacation dates and maximum budget.
- Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Blue Crab Cottage: Private Pool, Hot Tub, Dogs OK has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck rentals search.
- Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the property owner before you book your rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what is right for your group.
- If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a rental that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
- Does your family require unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental home.
- Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
Some things to know before you go:
- Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
- Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, stereo or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents quite a few problems.
- Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
- Make a record of any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if a dispute arises.
- Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent source for finding the best local beaches.
- Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
- Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
- Walk through the property a final time and scan for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition.
- Did your family have a terrific vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
