This vacation home places you next to Rodanthe Beach and within a 15-minute walk of Chicamacomico Life-Saving Station Historic Site and Museum. The vacation home includes a private pool, a kitchen, and a balcony.

Game Room with Pool Table/TV/beverage fridge.
We purchased the house in 2018 and have made updates from top to bottom. We have purchased new furniture, appliances, painted the interior and exterior and redone all the carpeting and most of the flooring. We keep you and your little ones in mind with a high chair, pack n play, and beach gear.
This house is perfect for families. The house has a reverse floor plan (kitchen and open floor plan great room on the top level to enjoy the best views). Breathtaking ocean views from every bedroom in the house. Sound views from the great room upstairs to watch the most spectacular sunsets. This home is equipped with a private saltwater pool with optional pool heat and a hot tub. Come and enjoy the surf and the sand with our complimentary beach gear and cooler for your convenience and enjoyment. Charcoal and propane grills are provided for the perfect cook out down in the pool area.
Enter through the front door onto the first level into the game room with a pool table, smart tv, wet bar, full size fridge. There is also a room that overlooks the beach with a twin over full bunk bed, a shared bathroom and a room with a queen size bed that also overlooks the ocean. Sliders from this level exit out to the patio where the hot tub is located. There is a washer dryer area on the landing between the 1st and 2nd levels. On the second level there are 2 king master suites and a room with 2 twin beds with an en suite bath. Follow the stairs up to the top floor where there is an open concept great room. Dining room seating fits 10, with additional seating at the breakfast bar for 4. Panoramic views of both the beach and sound offering stunning views of both sunrise and sunset. There is an additional king master bedroom on this level that shares the bathroom with the great room. A reading nook is also located on the landing just above this level.
If all of those stairs look like just too much for you or your family, an elevator is available to take you from the ground level all the way up (initial access to the property made through the front door on 2nd level).
The house is stocked with a pack n play, as well as a high chair to make your stay as comfortable as possible with your entire family. Limited selection of kids toys, games and books are also available to make your stay more enjoyable. We have 2 small boys and know how helpful it is to have some of these things already there when you travel and we want to make your vacation as easy as possible.
Pool Heat is available for an additional charge of $500/week. Water temperature is generally around 80F, depending on air temperature, wind direction, sun/cloud conditions. Pool heater has a regulator that will turn off if air temperature is below 55-60F. Let us know at the time of booking and it can be added so that the pool is warm for your stay. ---Pool Open from beginning of April (April 5, 2025) to end of October. Hot Tub open year round!

Great place to spend a week
We had a wonderful time staying at Sand Point. The house was just as described. Lots of room for the 9 of us. We had family from Montana, and they were blown away with the wonderful views and the size of the house.
The elevator was a wonderful plus. It helped with the move in, all the luggage and groceries.
The location to the beach was good. Just a short walk away.
The kitchen was stocked with plenty of pots and pans, dishes and cups. Lots of condiments if you forget something.
We would love to stay here again in the future.

It exceeded our expectations! The Hosts provided information and insight to the area that not only answered all our questions but helped us discover hidden treasures in the area! The decks and views were amazing! Beach chairs, umbrella and outdoor shower were a godsend! Not to mention the pool and hot tub that were perfect for our group of 10! Plenty of room and a dining table that sat us all! Oh and an elevator that came in very handy! The entire family ages 18 to 60 voted we will do this again! Rating our stay a 10 out of 10!!

Bucket List Trip
We had a blast! We are a group of 70 year old high school girlfriends that decided last year we'd like to go to the Outer Banks. For most of us, it was a first visit to the area. We loved that our home was away from the hustle and bustle of other beach areas. We enjoyed watching the surfers and the dolphins with the sunrise. The house has a well-stocked kitchen and very comfortable bedrooms. We truly appreciated the elevator, the pool and hot tub. We lucked into a week with great weather. We absolutely loved out stay.

From the moment we arrived it felt like we had come home. Everything appealed to us, from the proximity to the ocean, the miles and miles of unspoiled waterfront, to the perfectly appointed home to stay in. 100% recommend!
Cynthia and Eric have a lovely home, the pictures don’t properly do it justice. They were extremely responsive with all inquiries, and super accommodating with our desired dates.
Rodanthe is a dream. We will be back.

Absolutely Amazing
We could not have been happier with our stay in Rodanthe. The home was clean and inviting, the beds were all comfortable, the home has everything you needed and kitchen was well stocked with everything you’d need for your stay. The heated pool was a great added bonus during the chillier weather in April and the hot tub is beautiful, clean and well kept. By far the views from this home are breathtakingly beautiful. I woke every morning and had coffee on top deck and ended each day with dinner view of the ocean. The sun rises and sets are amazing. The owners, went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful stay. I’d HIGHLY recommend choosing this property if you’re visiting OBX.

Just the beach house we needed!
This beach house is great! Everything was as listed and with great hosts, Cynthia and Eric!
Bedrooms were spacious and if bringing the whole family, plenty of room and fun for all. The pool was a great temp, clean and enjoyable. One of the best things about this property is the view from the main deck upstairs. We literally sat out there every minute we had the chance.
We caught the tail end of the tropical storm from Florida on our visit, but that didn't stop us. We were in contact with Cynthia and Eric and with their great instructions and some homeowner experience, we secured the property, and all was fine!
Hoping to return with more people next year so everyone can enjoy it with us!

Excellent property
The house was very clean when we arrived. The house keepers obviously took their time and did a thorough job. The location was excellent and the house had everything we could have possibly needed. We had 6 kids ranging from 7 to 15 and 4 adults. The bedroom arrangements were perfect. Any more would’ve been crowded. We’ve been traveling to OBX every summer for several years now and this was by far the nicest home we’ve been in. The views were spectacular and the beach was only a short walk away. The owners messaged us several times before arriving and gave us some tips for the area. They also provided us with the door code and Wi-Fi password a few days before arrival which made getting into the house easy and stress free. We definitely recommend this property and will probably be staying here again in the future!

Our Outer Banks Getaway
A beautiful home that had just about EVERYTHING you could imagine! We had read the comments about no can opener & brought one, just in case but we didn't need it. There were 2 there. We grilled 3 nights & was refunded on the propane we had to go get on the 1st night. Loved the elevator option, my Mom joined us & it was easier for her to go up & down when need be, I may have joined her a few times. (There were A LOT of steps!) The views from the balcony were wonderful! It was quiet too, we had read about the dogs next door but didn't hear them. Having our own pool (heated, it was chilly the first couple days we were there, glad it was an option) & hot tub was a fantastic bonus. The large table to eat at with the family was incredible & made it easy to have meals together.
I would say the only down fall was the beach access. While views were spectacular from the deck area, it was a bit difficult to climb the dune to get to the beach, although coming down was fine. We were able to cut through between a couple houses that others staying at & allowed us to get my Mom there, which was a nice reprieve. There was some construction going on at some new houses next door, which made for some hammering during the morning/day hours a little crummy, along with the nail of one of my son's found in his tire that had to be repaired but obviously no fault of our house owners.
Eric & Cynthia were amazing hosts, responded quickly whenever I needed info or wanted anything. Loved it

Great Family Vacation
This is my family's fourth time to OBX, but our first time in Rodanthe. Let's just say...we didn't want to leave! If you are looking for a beautiful place to just sit back and relax, this is the place to go! Absolutely loved this home. There was plenty of room for our family of 11 and Cynthia (the host) was always quick to respond to any questions! The kitchen was equipped with anything you could possibly need with the exception of a good working can opener! The views of the ocean were great and the sounds were amazing. Our pool guy, Nick, was also amazing and so friendly!! The only complaint I would have is the crotchety old man that lives next door to the house. His dogs bark non stop and he yelled at us for using "his" access to the beach. But we didn't let him ruin our good time. Walked the beach every morning to watch the sun rise...absolutely beautiful!! Collected some cool sea shells (even found a couple of sand dollars). Drove about 7 miles south to check out the 4×4 beach...much quieter than the one in Corolla! So sad to leave but will cherish the memories made!! Thanks Eric and Cynthia for letting us stay at your house!!!
