Awe-inspiring ocean views await at this charming, cedar-shingled seaside cottage in the Outer Banks. Open the blinds or the double doors while brewing a pot of coffee and take a seat in the rocking chair on your oceanfront deck to catch the sunrise with the sound of breaking waves and seagulls. If you’ve brought the family pup to this dog-friendly home, a walk on the beach might be in order followed by rinsing the sand from their paws using the outdoor shower. Head back inside as the rest of your group wakes up and starts preparing breakfast. You’ve got a full suite of appliances, ample counter space, and all the quality cookware and gadgets you need to make a quick breakfast or a full buffet. When it’s time to eat, grab a seat at one of the two dining tables or the breakfast bar inside, or slide those double doors open and sit on the upper deck with the salty breeze in your hair. Stow the dishes in the dishwasher and head out to explore the Outer Banks, or just make your way to the beach for a lazy day on the sand.

In the evening, the top floor offers a comfortable seating area, a large TV with cable, and ample space for everyone to relax, build a puzzle, or play one of the many games available. The lighted outdoor lower level offers an area for grilling, digging in the sand, playing corn hole, or having fun on the rope swing. On the first floor, you’ll find all four bedrooms. The main suite, the Captain’s Room, offers ocean views from your King bed, a TV, an en suite bathroom, and your own slider to the lower deck.

The second ocean view room, the Skipper’s Room, features a Queen bed, flatscreen TV, and en suite bathroom with your own deck access. Additionally, the other Skipper’s Room features a comfy Queen with beach sandpiper decor. Lastly, the final bedroom, the Pirate’s Room, offers a pair of twin beds in a Pirate-themed bedroom with a flatscreen TV as well. As you settle in for the night, end the day as you began, on either of your lovely decks, this time watching the stars rise over the ocean. Don’t stay up too late though - you don’t want to miss that sunrise.

THINGS TO KNOW
There is a pirate-themed kids bedroom with a trunk of toys available.
There is a luggage lift (Stair Tamer) available for guest use.

Perfect Start to Summer
Our family LOVED our stay. It was quiet, except for the sound of the surf, which was heaven and the neighbors we quiet and friendly. This location was exactly as shown in the listing. The beds were very comfortable. We don’t care for eating out and this place had a well stocked kitchen. We had everything we needed to cook whatever we wanted. We have been looking for a beach vacation area that is not crowded with amusements and “tourist trap” areas. We just wanted peace, quiet, the beach/ocean, and time to spend with each other. This was it!! We all fell in love with OBX (including our doggie). New vacation spot located. 😁

This home is a nature lover’s paradise located right between pea island and the national seashore! Sunrise on the beach and sunsets over the sound, check out the Salvo day use area for prime viewing less than 10 min down the road! Kitchen is well equipped and our pup made himself right at home.

Location can’t be beat
We had a great stay at Stillwaters. The ocean front view can’t be beat. Falling asleep to the sound of the ocean’s waves coming in through the open doors leading out to the deck with a beautiful ocean view was amazing. The top deck off the living area offered an even better view. The house was very comfortable for the six of us, including 3 teenage boys. We always stay on Hatteras because we love to get away from the bustle of the northern towns and just have some peace. The kitchen had seemingly everything you could possibly need to cook a feast at first, but we realized it was missing some basic things like potholders, dishwasher soap and garbage bags (you get only the bad that is there when you arrive) which was kind of strange. Keep in mind you will need to bring or purchase literally anything you would need to cook. Even salt and pepper. There is a coffee maker that takes grounds or pods, no coffee is provided. This is not a complaint, just a heads up. You are also expected to vacuum and sweep before you leave which I find very off putting since we pay a pretty good cleaning fee. The floor was a little sandy when we arrived and I’m guessing that’s because it was left to previous tenants. All in all though we enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

Poor LOCAL Vacasa Help --Great house Great stay.
The hot water failed and I contacted Vacasa. I was told to expect communication and help to remedy the problem. After waiting all day, I called Vacasa again , and they said they would contact the local office - and that I should update them in 1 hour. No one came and I reported this after one hour. Very bad maintenance help...

Great place!
Really loved this location and the house! It was dog friendly and Vacasa (the property managing company) we’re super easy to work with and gave me no problems or fuss when my guests required service animals! The house was better in person and the views were great. The path to get beach access is right outside and the other neighbors were very friendly. Lots of people fishing, so seems like a popular spot for that as well. Also like the location of this house being basically beach front, without actually being in the water like many other NC properties - so we felt safe. Washer and dryer on site right by the bedrooms and front door is great. And the kitchen is a little outdated, but everything else makes up for it. Also rooms are a bit small, but you get large beds and TVs in there as well. Only downside I’d say is the tv in one of the queen rooms and the upstairs living room were really outdated and it was hard to navigate the TVs. The tv in the king bedroom was fine.

A great place with a wonderful view
Our group of three adults and three children and one dog thoroughly enjoyed ourselves for our five night stay. There were a couple of items that needed minor repair, but overall the amenities and the provisions were quite satisfactory. The location relative to the beach was superb. I would highly recommend this property for a family vacation, and there is no question that we will definitely consider a return visit in the future.

Great Location
The good news is that the location of the house is perfect. Also the layout, infrastructure (AC, plumbing etc.) all work. The views are wonderful. The bad news is that the house had not been cleaned when we go their at our check-in time and communicating with management to get this fixed was not easy. Very disappointing.

Beautiful home & peaceful stay.
The home was beautiful in a quiet neighborhood, as advertised. It was stocked with all of the basic kitchen necessities. The only issues we experienced were the bathroom GFCI outlets did not work in either of the lower level bathrooms. The maintenance person came out to evaluate and concurred that they were not operable on Monday; however, no one came to repair them until the end of our vacation on Friday.

Perfect Beach House!
Spectacular unobstructed views with the ocean just steps away! The cottage has everything you need: comfy beds, tv's, ample seating at the dinner table and a fully stocked kitchen including all the cookware you will need: waffle maker, coffee pot that both drips and uses pods, an electric fryer skillet, blender, and a nice charging station for electronics. Although not listed int he ad, there is an electric lift so no lugging everything up two flights of stairs. Everything was clean and fresh. The decks were nicely furnished and massive. Flatscreen TV's in all but one bedroom. There is a small charcoal grill on the property (think park style grill), so if you cook-out for a crowd, you may need to rent a large gas grill. The house is very cozy and comfortable and hit every need that we had. We can't wait to return! If you like jigsaw puzzles, try the "Coastal Shells" one, it's a challenge but all of the pieces are there and beautiful when completed!
