AVMC3 Knock Out #3-MC

Once of the best properties I’ve stayed at on Hatteras Island/OBX. That said there were a couple call outs that need to be addressed. The property is large, and surrounded in amazing live oaks and cedar trees, driveway is incredible, but there is a drawback…. There is trash littered throughout the wood line all around the house and driveway. Clean this up and it would be a 5 star +++ property. The only other drawback was that the basement -gameroom had a strong Urine odor. Kinda made that room unusable.

The view toward the sound a highlight, and the dining/ living area situated on the top floor is a perfect perch from which to watch the world. But there are steps. The main entrance on the lower floor is already about four feet from the ground, and it was a heart-pumping job to cart groceries and suitcases up two more flights of steps to the top-floor kitchen and bedroom. But once the kitchen was stocked and the suitcases stowed, what more could we want? The house isn't new but is comfortable and homey. The kitchen table squeaks and jiggles, but it seats 10. The living room furniture is comfortable, and the beds are good. Be aware that Vacasa only provides a minimum of supplies. No extra garbage bags, a minimum of dish soap, and about 2 towels per bathroom. For the week. There are no dishrags or dish towels. Bring those items and some laundry detergent. The laundry is way downstairs, but it was a lifesaver for our crew. The sound is full of crabs, clams, and pinfish. There's no dock, but we waded in to the waist and caught a variety, including puppy drum and speckled trout. Except for the weather, it was a very good week.

What a wonderful place this turned out to be. Whole family loved it. The top floor became the centerpiece for all to gather. Water access was great. Enjoyed watching the paragliders, sailboarding. Pier is close and the fish were biting. Several restaurants to choose from, get started early they fill fast. People in the neighborhood are friendly.

We absolutely loved the privacy of this home. We loved the private sound access and all of the wildlife that comes with the home. A few minor inconveniences but that's to be expected from a Hatteras Island home. We highly recommend this home if you're an outdoorsman, or like any kind of water sports.

Great house and location. We had 6 adults and 6 children, and all were comfy with the bedrooms. It was like we had our own private beach on the sound. The sunsets were great, as was watching the kite boarders. Great kitchen and family area. Only downside was the mosquitoes Bring bug repellent. Hope we can stay there again next year.

Great view and sunset! Nice place perfect for kiting
