This neighborhood is bordered by a national park and just steps from the beachfront, making the Cottages at the Cape perfect for your family's next vacation! Nestled within a beautiful resort village on Hatteras Island, this vacation rental is one of the closest suites to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse in Buxton. Inside, the home has been completely renovated with new paint, furnishings, and flooring, bright from the natural light streaming in through the living space windows. Use the free WiFi to research a fun new recipe to experiment on and get cooking in the full kitchen to create something special for tonight's family meal.
A stroll will take you right to the beach. After a day in the surf, you can use the suite's outdoor shower to spritz away the sand before coming home to kick back on the living room sofa to watch a good show or movie on the TV or head outside to the screened porch to read a favorite mystery novel. Don't forget to bring the family bikes, because Buxton's shopping, restaurants, and lighthouse are all very close.
Forget the 4WD vehicle because three jetties to the east of the cottages produce some of the best fishing, surfing, and swimming on this island. Walking to the south will get you to the open beaches and the famed Cape Point, and if luck is on your side during the summer, you may pass a few sea turtle nests - just give them some room by staying outside the barriers!

Nice home, pool is MILES away
The title of the listing says "with pool", when in fact the pool is miles away in a different location, at Club Hatteras. We did not use the pool due to this inconvenience. The house and neighborhood were quiet and clean with a view of the Hatteras Lighthouse nearby. Overall, a good stay, but we would have preferred knowing the house did not have a pool, just access to a community pool that is NOT within walking distance.

Ok overall but beach access disappointing
No beach access as advertised, and a few Spots could be a little cleaner. More steps than expected but overall a nice house and stay.

A walk to the beach!
Had a great time. The home had so much room for all of us. It was located on a quiet culdesac with a park and a short walk to the beach. The screened porch has a slight ocean view and a great view of the Hatterras lighthouse; a nice place to sit and drink morning coffee. The sound, restaurants and market shopping was a short drive. The home is also a short drive to the Ocracoke Island Ferry. I do wish check-in was a little earlier and check-out was a little later.

Nice house
House and location were good. It’s just a short walk to the beach. Guests should bring their own trash bags and detergent and be prepared to sweep and mop. Also the pool that is referenced is in a different town/island so not convenient for this homes location.
