About this house rental
New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests.
A luxury soundfront estate with panoramic views, and unmatched resort-style amenities including a private pool, fitness room and private dock.
Croatan Ridge is a private, luxurious home that's genuinely what vacation dreams are made of. This waterfront home sits on the beautiful Pamlico Sound with direct access to the water via the private dock. The wraparound decks offer outstanding views of Hatteras Island. You can see the Atlantic Ocean, breathtaking sunsets, and even the remote Diamond Shoals Light Station when the weather is right. There are thoughtful details throughout, including custom cabinetry, furniture, and decor.
The home boasts six primary bedrooms and two double bunk rooms. All bedrooms have deck access and either enjoy views of island live oaks or have gorgeous sound views. Elevator access is convenient to every level and excellent amenities can be found at every turn. The great room offers a high-end AV system and comfortable seating, where you can recline in front of the fireplace while looking out the windows to the Pamlico Sound. For cocktail hour, sit back and relax at the Surf Bar, with seating and a beverage refrigerator - the perfect place to socialize with friends and family. The gourmet kitchen will please even the most discerning chef, as it's decked out with the best double appliances and all the tools needed for the ultimate cooking and dining experience.
The kids - and the kids at heart - will have a blast in the tower game room, which features a foosball table, a poker table, a stereo, an LCD TV and DVD player, and incredible views. A soundfront family room with a big-screen TV, a large table, and comfy seating and a soundfront fitness room with cardio equipment are also provided. The large, 20-foot by 40-foot private pool has two lounge chairs submerged in water along the wading area, which doubles as a shallow play area for smaller children. The oversized hot tub is built-in at the pool level, adjacent to the pool. Also poolside are a massive outdoor stone fireplace, a beautiful wooden bar, a gas grill, and a full bathroom - an excellent area for an alfresco dinner or pool party. The dock leading down to the sound provides access for kiteboarding, paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing, or crabbing. Lastly, there are an outdoor shower and board racks for your convenience.

We had stayed there before and loved it, this year we brought down 2 jet ski’s for the boys 6 grand sons and the dads took turns as well. The weather was ideal and as always the home was perfect. I’d like to thank the owner of the home opening it up to us and the three generations that were able to enjoy a super week on the sound.

Our 3 generation family of 20 had a fabulous time at this house. The kitchen was large and double everything was a huge bonus. The kids had a blast in the pool and playing in the house. The large family room sat the whole family comfortably. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing house, amazing vacation! Pool was massive. Sound was great (only about 1.5 ft deep max). Views were the best. Elevator made the massive house more accessible. Only downside was how far out of "civilization" you are. If it wasn't so expensive, we would be back every year!

This home has everything possible needed for a perfect vacation- the kitchen is extremely well stocked, the house was spotless and the views endless. Would love to book again unfortunately the extra fees Vacsa has added into the rental price makes it unreasonable.
