New Listing! Waterfront, Hot Tub, Boat Slip - Vacation rental home in Manteo, NC

Discover & appreciate the island life at Station Manteo! Water vistas from three porches and every window make waking up at Station Manteo really special. Begin the day with coffee and a sunrise view over the sound and Shallowbag Bay. Head to one the many world-famed OBX beaches or walk along the waterfront boardwalk to downtown Manteo for the afternoon. Grab a drink at sunset and savor a charming view over the west facing canal or take in the view over the sound with Pirate’s Cove, Ballast Point, South Nags Head and the Washington Baum Bridge lit up at nighttime.

This is a place where Outer Banks memories are made!

Station Manteo is owned by the family of a retired Coast Guard Captain who once served at Oregon Inlet and Cape Hatteras, and the home is maintained to the high standard deserving of this special place. Constructed in 2021, Station Manteo is designed to resemble an old Coast Guard Station (hence the name!), but with a opulent, modern feel. A coastal vibe carries through the home with plantation shutters, shiplap walls, 9’ ceilings, barstools overlooking the canal, and ocean-themed décor. The home also features many brand-new furnishings. Linens supplied.

This is a one-of-a-kind, calming OBX getaway you won’t forget - offered for rental for the very first time in 2026.
