Spacious 3-bedroom beach cottage on Ocracoke

Forget your worries in this spacious and serene space. 3 beds, two full baths. The space Our home has a large great room, well stocked kitchen (pots, pans, utensils, etc.), and an expansive screened porch. We have three bedrooms (quee, king, double with twin bunk) and two full bathrooms (both with bath/shower combo and detachable shower sprayer for washing sandy feet). Smart TV in all bedrooms and living room Outside you will find a spacious, fenced in front yard, covered parking, and a screened in shower with hot and cold water (seasonal). This home was built by my dad and is filled with family memories. We hope you love it as much as we do! Guest access We have off-street parking for two cars (one covered space) and room for a golf cart and bikes. Trailers, boats, and additional vehicles must be parked at the NPS lot near the harbor and visitor center. It’s free but you need a pass, they’re in a box on the visitor center door so you can pick one up after hours. The boat launch is free and there is free day-use docking in the harbor, right next to the ferries. You can pay for overnight docking. There are also several options for bike, golf cart, kayak, and boat rentals. Other things to note NO LINENS PROVIDED If you’ve never been to Ocracoke, please make sure you understand the ferry system and know a little bit about the island. There are three ferries - Swan Quarter, Cedar Island, and Hatteras. Hatteras is free and does not require a reservation, the others do. Check a map and the NCDOT Ferry Division website to figure out your best option and view the schedule. Cancelations and schedule changes are sometimes posted to Social media but I recommend calling ahead. COVID is significantly affecting the schedule. Ocracoke is a small beach community. You won’t find chain restaurants, movie theaters, or much nightlife. You can enjoy local restaurants (upscale and casual), a few bars and brewery, delicious coffee, local shops, amazing nature, peace and quiet. For the necessities - The Variety Store, gas station, hardware store, and small health center. There is a liquor store. If there’s something you need, let me know. Please be aware that restaurants and shops may close in the off-season. Winter on Ocracoke is more about quiet time and nature. Another thing to remember - the ferry doesn’t run in the middle of the night. This is a remote destination. Plan accordingly. Our internet is *pretty good* but you’re on an island - sometimes it cuts out. Same with the cable. I have been consistently able to work from home using zoom and can almost always watch streaming TV. If the internet doesn’t work, my phone hotspot usually does.
