Non-smoking (inside home, on porches & decks). Smoking is allowed on concrete area beneath home where picnic table with ashtray is located.

Dog-friendly home for up to 2 dogs (additional $150/week pet fee applies). 330 sq foot dog run area accessible from side deck door without you going out in bad weather! Fence is wooden, cattle-style and 5 ft high…very sturdy. The fenced area is partly covered & partly uncovered for your dogs comfort in any weather.

Bedspreads, bed covers, pillows (of various types and firmness), pillow covers and dish cloths ARE supplied. Bed sheets & bath towels are NOT included but they can be rented (supplier information will be supplied by host upon booking).

Beach accessories such as chairs, umbrellas, body boards and cruiser bicycles are not supplied, but can be rented at many locations in the area. Host can provide close by providers, if needed.

To protect my home, exterior cameras are in use on the 2 side decks and beneath the home, however the video will be disabled after a compliant check-in day unless owner receives report of a home rules violation (note that audio is always disabled). Even though check-in time is listed as 4:00, in reality the cleaners are normally done (and home available) by 1:00 or 2:00 (however it isn't guaranteed until 6:00 so I split it down the middle). They will post a note on door when it is ready. If you arrive earlier, you can change in the outdoor shower and go to the beach or sound until its ready.

Come appreciate Hatteras Islands’ striking fishing, beaches & water sports, as well as Salvo’s beauty, serenity and marvelous nighttime skies at the Sandbox!
