    The SHELTER on HATTERAS is the ultimate vacation cottage. Our Hatteras Island home has all of the comforts you'd expect, including panoramic views of the water.

    The SHELTER is about 100 yards from Teaches Lair Marina and Grill. You can book your fishing trip or just visit before 4pm to see the days catch. The typical catches are blue marlin, sailfish, dolphin, red drum, wahoo, kings and spanish, bluefish, tuna, and grouper.

    The Outer Banks were the first part of the Atlantic to be visited by English settlers, principally Sir Walter Raleigh’s expedition in the 1580’s.Through centuries of isolation the people inhabiting the outer banks have developed a way of life all their own. Hatteras near its southern tip is within 12 miles of the Gulf Stream is known as “Game Fish Junction” because abundance of northern and southern species of fish. It is off Cape Hatteras that the Labrador Current collides with the warm tropical water of the Gulf Stream.

We had such a wonderful time staying at “The Shelter.” This house truly feels like a home.The kitchen is stocked with everything you could possibly need—and then some. It is by far the best-equipped kitchen of any rental we've stayed in. The furnishings are cozy and welcoming, and the king bed was extremely comfortable (we can only vouch for that one since it was just the two of us!).The location is unbeatable: beautiful views from the deck, a quick walk to the beach, and a short drive to the ORV access ramp.As great as all of that was, the fenced backyard ended up being our favorite part. The thoughtful layout with direct access from the deck was perfect for our dogs, and the Fairy Garden was such a charming and unexpected delight to explore.We truly can’t say enough good things about this home and fully plan to book again in the future.Thank you, Deb, for sharing your wonderful home with us.

Best stay ever!!

This place was perfect for us and our two dogs. It was clean. A fenced in yard for the dogs to play. The marina was across the street. After a long day of fishing it was just a short walk to the house. The host was quick to answer questions and made us feel welcomed. I will definitely get this place when we come back.

Great place

House was very nice. Was stocked well with all cooking ware. The upper deck was really nice with a great view. Outdoor shower is nice, could use a little more coverage in my opinion. Great little neighborhood with close beach access. Several of the beach acces were damaged and closed while we were there.

Great location

We loved the proximity to the local beaches and the quiet vibe of Hatteras Village in spring. The house was a good size for our family of six and we appreciated the beach gear and bikes! The house is older, a little worn/dated and short on hot water. Beds were comfortable and clean. The overall cleaning of the house was spotty though-- coffee left in the maker, crumbs in the couch. Nothing that was a deal breaker though. We enjoyed our stay!

Great house, enjoyed relaxing stay

We had a very relaxing stay in this cool little house. The house is on one of the last streets before the ferry and 4x4 beach, so there’s minimal traffic and you can easily bike to the general store, restaurants, hardware store, and grocery store. You really feel the island vibe. The house is perfect for a small family. There’s plenty of room to chill after dinner and watch a movie. The owner has been kind enough to leave some items there to make your stay more convenient, like bikes and kayaks. We used the bikes quite often. The outdoor dart board was cool too. The owner was prompt returning communications, also. We would definitely stay again.
