Sweet Waterfront Cottage, 4 person limit


Soundhouse is a sweet, vintage cottage on the usually quiet North Pond with it’s own sandy beach. SoundHouse has been owned by the same local family since 1972. The owner resides nearby. It features a shady front porch and a back porch with a great beautiful waterfront view, including your own little sandy beach. Great for kayaking, paddle boarding, an easy walk to ferry, museum, restaurants, shopping and “downtown” waterfront with fabulous sunset views. Limited to four people, no pets, 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 2 queen beds, one twin, a large open plan kitchen, dining and living area. There is an outdoor shower and washer/dryer, but experience old Ocracoke by washing your dishes by hand, no dishwasher! Parking for two vehicles. Enjoy the soundside beach but please respect neighbor’s beachfront property lines, it’s not a community beach. We DO NOT allow powered or sailboats tied up or moored by guests of SoundHouse. This is strictly enforced. Smoking is not allowed inside SoundHouse. Smoking is allowed outside in the yard only. Events and large parties are NOT allowed in SoundHouse. There is space and charging available for golf carts.

All guests of SoundHouse are STRONGLY urged to purchase cancellation insurance when you book through VRBO. Things happen. You want to be protected.

This property is offered by Premier Partner, Debbie Wells, who also manages two other VRBO properties: The Studio #332656, and CanalHouse #2760936. All cottages are personally managed and locally owned and operated and feature great locations, clean and functional interiors and competitive pricing. We hope to see you!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a private yard, and a coffee maker.

Kewl spot near the sound and walkin' distance to stuff

This spot is great for anyone, but perhaps especially families, as there's a calm private beach area for kids to swim in and walkin' distance to the action is very straightforward.

Amazing Location

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. The location was just perfect. Having the sound right outside our back door to look at and kayak and paddleboard in was awesome. It was also an easy walk or bike ride to anything in town.
