Sweet Waterfront Cottage, 4 person limit

Please, note...we only book full weeks during high season, with Saturday as our change over day. We do take partial stays in the shoulder and off season. Please note: SoundHouse does not provide linens. Bring your own sheets for 2 queen beds, 1 single, towels and personal pillows.

IF YOU BRING ONE, YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO REMOVE IT. Do not store or charge electric bikes on the property. Also, please check all our house rules before booking.

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, overlooking 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. No power or sailboats. Smoking is not allowed inside SoundHouse. Smoking is allowed outside in the yard only. Events and large parties are NOT allowed in SoundHouse.

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

On the sound
This was our second stay at this property- just the right size for the two of us, very clean, lovely quiet spot directly on Pamplico Sound, and close to shops in Ocracoke.

Cozy and quiet
Mid March. Excellent for 2 or 3 people, very good for 4. Quiet, close to everything and yet secluded. 2 trucks parked just fine, wouldn’t try 3. Sound is in backyard although we didn’t walk down this time, spent all our time beach fishing, not catching. We only visit in the off season so the entire village is peaceful and quiet. DK how it is in the summer. This was our 3rd stay at Sound House, works well for us older folks who now have to forgo lots of stairs. Debbie is a great host, always fast responses and personable.

Family Week
The cottage was perfect for the three of us. The back yard on the sound was wonderful. Debbie was helpful with a couple questions we had. The only thing that was a disappointment was the outdoor shower. It was lacking hot water and water pressure. Some in our group really enjoy the outdoor shower while on a beach vacation.

Wonderful Time!
What a wonderful place! The minute you walk-in the front door you are greeted with windows that look out into the Sound. Such a serene feeling! The house was perfectly clean and had everything we needed. TV & Wi-Fi worked well and the water pressure in the shower was fantastic! My son & I absolutely loved being able to walk out into the water and playing on the little sound side beach. There are lots of hermit crabs to watch play out there! Watching the boats come & go was also a fun way to pass some time. The house is close enough to walk or bike to anywhere in town. We spent many nights walking to the ice cream shops & T-shirt stores. We had a great time at the Soundhouse and would suggest it to anyone looking for a great spot on the water!
