Outstanding Views

The best water views of any coastal house we've ever rented! Amazing views of Pamlico Sound from the top deck. There are two flights of steps to climb from the parking area to the kitchen and main living area. Not a problem for us (ages 65-75). We especially enjoyed the kayaks and media room. This is an attractive (and affordable) option for two couples. Great place!
