We had an amazing stay in Rodanthe—this spot truly felt like our own private beach getaway. The location was ideal: peaceful, uncrowded, and just steps from the ocean. We loved relaxing in the hot tub after beach days, and our dog had the time of his life—very pet-friendly with plenty of space to roam.The house was well-appointed with great amenities, and Waterman’s Grill quickly became a favorite—so much so we went back a second night for the laid-back vibe and great food.Heads-up: make sure to read the welcome guide and bring all your own consumables (toilet paper, paper towels, etc. aren’t included). Also, a quick tip for dog owners—there are some rough patches with burrs on the path to the beach.We’d absolutely come back!
