Castle in the Sand is a striking 6-bedroom home that offers the ideal amount of comfort, making it an ideal hideaway for you and your furry friends. Located on a peaceful cul-de-sac, the home's soundside location offers a peaceful location for families any time of the year. Whether you're seeking a calming escape or an adventure-filled hideaway, Castle in the Sand provides the ideal setting for making memories that will last a lifetime.

The top level of the home offers roomy seating in the family room, which is comfortably set up for watching the big game on the 50" ROKU Intelligent TV or calming by the fireplace during the chilly, winter months. The enormous dining table provides seating for the whole family, and for those cool spring mornings, breakfast in the screened in porch located just off of the dining room is the ideal way to start your day at the beach. The huge kitchen is completely-supplied and equipped for meals at home while the open floorplan accepts for everybody in the group to be together and not have to miss out on any moments. A cavernous top-level master with full private bath offers comfort and privacy all while being steps away from the main living area of the home.

On the mid-level, you will find four of the bedrooms in the home, all set up with Intelligent TVs. There are 2-shared bathrooms on the floor with tiled showers with plenty of space for guests. One side of the home is arranged with a queen bedroom, joined by a shared bathroom and pyramid bunk room, while the other queen is connected with a bunk bed and office set up to allow any work to be done, even while on vacation. The ground floor is where all of the fun happens! A full-sized pool table, arcade game programmed with 60 classic arcade games and a mini-refrigerator offer fun for the whole family, and with the pool deck just being steps away, there is plenty to do, rain or shine. The backyard offers a private setting, with a spacious yard and pool-side seating for all to appreciate while relaxing in the pool (pool heat can be added for an additional fee.) or star-gazing in the hot tub.

Finding the best Currituck vacation property experience:

Finding the best rental value:

• Summer time is high season in Corolla. To find the most suitable rental home within your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your family qualifies for a discount.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies supply Currituck area visitor guides that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your search:

• Start by selecting a vacation week and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Castle In The Sand-Dog-Friendly, Private Pool, Hot Tub, Community Amenities! has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible online. Otherwise, call the property owner before reserving your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a certain Currituck destination you long to visit, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make sure damages are not linked to your family's visit, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Call the host right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Double-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets 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.
• Did your group have a great stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
