Relax ~ Refresh ~ Refocus ~ Reconnect
Hatteras Island has always been an easy escape for some solitude or connecting with family and friends. Our beaches are vast, our ocean is blue and finding your spot away from the crowd is easy. One can literally spend the entire day @Captain's Hideout out sunning on the decks, on the beach, watersports, grill dinner on the decks enjoy sunset.
Hatteras Island~ If you know...You know. Pristine uncrowded beaches, watersports, boating, fishing, shell collecting, star gazing, historic places, great restaurants, outdoor dining, free sunshine, Sunrise and Sunset each day over the water, Music, Arts. Yet with all of this Hatteras is still a place where you truly can get away from it all if solitude is your destination.

Excellent location!!!
Karen has a WONDERFUL place that’s got to be one of the best locations in the area. It’s super quiet, very private feeling, the sunsets are AMAZING, the wrap around porch always has a shady spot to relax. The house was wonderful! I don’t have any negative thing to say. We stayed a week and never wanted for anything. If we ever go back to the OBX we will definitely be looking to stay here again during our stay.

View not what expected
The home itself was fine , however the smell of mildew was very prevalent , the best view of the sound is on the top bedroom deck however , the railings on that deck are very loose and dangerous . The view of the sound from the first floor deck is obstructed by foliage . Kitchen was well stocked . I doubt if we will be returning in the future .

Karen is an amazing host that is excellent at communicating and making you feel super welcome. Captains Hideout is absolutely amazing, there is so much time and detail that has been put into this place to make it so magical and special. The pictures do not do it justice. It was the perfect location for a wonderful vacation. I hope we can make it back again one day.

Amazing Spot
We spent a long weekend at Captain’s Hideaway with our pup. What a great house. Karen is a great communicator, the house is well stocked with everything that you would need. The decks off the second level are great for enjoying a view of the sound or stargazing at night. Our dog was very happy with the fenced in back yard and the tennis ball that was there for her to play with. I highly recommend the property.

Excellent Spot
Had a great, short vacation here. Neighborhood is extremely quiet/peaceful, it's a good setup for dogs, and you have a great spot for watersports right out back. I was able to get out and wing a couple of days. Depths were enough once you got the feel for the area and couldn't ask for much more as far as launch spot and having space to yourself. House is very comfortable and has everything you need. Little beach would be awesome for a fire if winds cooperate.

We had a great time and found this property to be perfect for our family of 3 and dog. We really enjoyed the sunset views over the sound, open floor plan and two master suites this property offered. It was an easy drive to local beaches and restaurants allowing us to find the right balance of relaxation and adventure. We’re already planning our return trip!

Lovely
Property was so unique with the private beach and the close proximity to the ocean. We often drove down to the public access where houses ended and walked on the shore at 5 to 7am without seeing a single or person. We enjoyed the fish markets and cooking in more than eating out. It was everything we were looking for. Plan to come again.
