☆☆ GETTING TO THE HOME ☆☆

☀ Essential Car Information/Requirement:

An AWD or 4WD car (Opt for our Shuttle Service if you don't have one) with at least 7.5 inches of ground clearance is necessary (e.g., Toyota 4Runner, Lexus GX, Toyota Tacoma, Nissan Frontier, Ford Bronco, Jeep Wrangler, Chevy Tahoe, and most trucks). Avoid 2WD Vehicles: A tow from the sand costs $400 and consumes vacation time, so a 2WD car is not recommended.

To ensure a smooth arrival, an all-wheel or four-wheel drive car with at least 7.5 inches of ground clearance is required! A tow from the sand is $400 and consumes a lot of precious vacation time, so trust us and don’t try the drive in a 2WD car.

Three Convenient Options for Arrival:

Drive Your Own or a Rental 4x4/AWD Car: We recommend local units that allow beach driving. Stop at Historic Corolla Park to reduce tire pressure by 10-15 pounds before driving on the sand. Easier driving conditions are during low tide and cooler temperatures.

Location of Free Air Down Station: 1113 Village Lane, Corolla, NC 27927, USA (Google Maps)

Use Satellite Parking: Park overnight at one of our vendor’s convenient satellite parking locations, about 3 miles from the home. Members of your group with AWD/4X4s can pick you up, ensuring everybody arrives safely and together.

Select from one of our satellite parking spots
Opt for a Third-Party Shuttle Service: For a hassle-complimentary option, a personalized third-event shuttle service is available.

How to find the best Currituck vacation rental experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• In the Currituck area, The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation rental up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in Corolla. To get the most suitable vacation home within budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Currituck attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many rental management companies supply Currituck area visitor guides which will include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• First and foremost, have your group commit to vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Hot Tub
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the host before you book the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or charges applied to your agreement.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Make a record of any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if a dispute is filed.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to confirm you've collected everything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and look for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix 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.
