About this cottage rental

A treehouse on Hatteras Island. License to Chill takes advantage of it's unique location and lets you experience the beach from every room. The house has 3 bedrooms and is split into two sides connected by outdoor decks. The west side of the house includes main living area, kitchen, master bedroom and bath. The west side faces the beach and includes 3 sliding glass doors that open to ocean breezes. The East side of the house is connected to the west side by first and second floor decks and includes another master bedroom and bath and twin bedroom upstairs. The house was redecorated and updated in 2012 to include new bedroom furniture, couches, and flat screen T.V.s. The beach is a directly across the street and beach access is less than 100 yards away left or right. The views from the house are enhanced by double lots across the street, rather than houses, dunes and ocean are what you see. A brand new 6 person hottub was purchased in 2012 and moved onto the pool deck so you can soak under the stars. Previous guests rank the pool and large pool deck as the best amenity of the house hands down. This is your chance to experience Hatteras Island as it was meant to be, outdoor living with modern conveniences.

The owner Mike was extremely easy to work with and very responsive. The property was in a fantastic location, well stocked kitchen, plenty of linens and blankets, and very clean. Some of our vacationing ‘neighbors’ were complaining about the state of their pools, but I can say for this property it was immaculately kept. Hot tub was amazing as well. Plenty of seating and areas throughout the house to be together and apart very comfortably. Would absolutely stay at this property again.

We did experience rain during our stay which led to discovering water leaks from the rain. But it did not damper our overall experience. As far as cleansiness, not sure how much of that was owners fault as much as previous guests and cleaning service. Under the couches we found dog treats from previous guests and some pots and dishes were dirty. No big deal. I cleaned them up and made sure i left the place better than how i found it. Mike was very responsive and sent over his maintenance guy, Chris the following day. Mike also mentioned that he intends to replace the sliding doors where the l

Awesome location near beach and quiet surroundings. Enjoyed the pool and hot tub.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2022
This is a lovely, quiet neighborhood with a pretty beach. The owner is very responsive. However, the house needs a lot of maintenance and attention that it is clearly not getting without onsite management. The description also needs some clarifications. There is no beach view, except in the very top crows next where it fits maybe 2 people standing and there is no place to sit and enjoy it. Beach access is about 100 feet away in either direction, but it's quite a long walk through the dunes and would be difficult for anyone with mobility issues. Description says there is a wall of doors that can be opened to enjoy the breeze, but handwritten in Sharpie is 'do not open, may not close again' on two of the three sets of doors. Fix the doors! Regarding maintenance, the AC in the main house was broken, which was communicated to us a few days before we arrived. The temporary fix, however, did not keep the living area and upstairs master bedroom cool enough during our stay. Fortunately, the Owner comp'ed us adequately. But there are other issues. The built-in microwave doesn't work and emitted a concerning burned wire smell when we tried to us it. (Owner said he will just cut the wires so it can't be used. Fix it!) The front left eye on the stove doesn't turn down from high position, even when the knob is turned to low, which we discovered the hard way. These potential fire hazzards led us to check the smoke detectors, neither of which (both upstairs) were in working condition. Most of the hot tub jets don't work, so you don't get that bubbly hot tub feel. (Fix them!) Many of the 'upgrades' and 'fixes', even structural to the exposed ceiling beams, appear to not have been professionally done, and it shows. There are also signs all over the house telling you what NOT to do, yet missing helpful info, like where to buy groceries. I've never experienced anything like it and I've rented a lot of vacation homes in many countries. It's just all around not in the best shape and not particularly renter friendly. It needs some investment of time and money to make it worth renting again. I'd call it bare bones. We would not rent again.
