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.

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.

My Wife and I enjoyed the convenience of having everything you need and want to do in walking distance. We set outside and grilled while enjoying our panoramic view of the ocean on both sides of us. Pat was very kind and welcoming the entire process.

The location was great, only a few minutes from the beach access. Beautiful sunset views over the sound and star gazing from the upper level deck. We loved the outdoor shower are cute signs around the property. The fenced in back yard was an added bonus, but if you have tall dogs note that the fence is only about 3 feet tall around the back. A few things that could use improvement is that the owner notified us a few days prior to our stay that the dryer wasn’t working and the coffee table had broken recently. Both easy fixes that happen with rentals. Based on images we thought there was a gas grill, but once we got to the house we realized that there was a charcoal grill. The house is a little small when it comes to places to store clothes, especially in the room with twin beds. Maybe a few more places to hang clothes in that room would be nice. We enjoyed our stay!

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 Escape

My family went to the Shellter for spring break this year. What a great escape. The beaches were vacant, full of shells, and our dogs had a blast in the ocean. What a great house and great location. We loved all the special touches and character of the house. We'll definitely stay again!!

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.
