Huge, canal-front home w/private hot tub, WiFi, central AC, washer & dryer, dock

I spy a terrific vacation at Spy Dog! Spy Dog is located on a quiet canal, only a short distance from the Pamlico Sound. The sound and sunset views are superb, and there are water vistas from every level. The ground level has concrete parking, garage, carport, grassy yard, and boat dock. The elevator starts at the driveway level. The first living level is the main living level where you are greeted with warm cottage-style decor. The living room with a gas fireplace has ample windows allowing the natural light to flow in and comfy furnishings. The nearby kitchen is every chef's dream offering abundant solid surface counter space, a functional layout, and a breakfast bar with seating for three. The adjacent dining area with seating for eight is open to the kitchen and has access to the deck. A den with a wet bar and a bath completes this level.

The second living level has two primary bedrooms and a laundry room with a utility sink. The first bedroom has a king bed and a private bath with a jacuzzi tub. The second bedroom has a king bed, a single bed, and a private bath. Throughout the home are a total of six TVs for private, or family, movie breaks. At the top of the stairs on the third living level, you will find a quiet loft space with a double sofa bed and access to the deck with a hot tub and spectacular views. Two additional spacious primary bedrooms with queen beds and private baths are also found on this level. From kayaking and crabbing fun in the backyard to taking a break in the large screened porch, you are sure to spy vacation victory at Spy Dog!

The house was beautifully decorated and spacious. The views were amazing no matter where you were in the house and the ride to the beach was quick. The bath houses and showers were very convenient. Just an incredible area.

Best of Both Worlds

This is a great house! Very Roomy, the best stocked kitchen we have every seen and the best of both worlds being on the canal close to the sound to fish and boat and 5 miles from the ramp to drive onto the beach. We loved our stay and will return soon.

My family gathers to honor the loss of my son. This year we chose to stay at spy dog. My family declared this the best yet. Weber been doing this for 24 yrs and for the first time we are considering the same location as long as the week is available. Amazing house, views and surrounded by amazing people. Fell in love with sensations beads!

Beautiful home with great location. Hidden gem. Almost afraid to write review for fear of home booking faster in the future. We owe the owners and the cleaning staff kudos for home preparation. Very clean and well appointed. Classic but modern. Close to amenities but remote enough to enjoy the areas quiet and natural setting. Absolutely favorite home to sat on Hatters. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy.

Best House Ever!

Very spacious with beautiful views! Easy access for kayaks into canal! Loved the dock with the sink and hose! Elevator great for unloading but mostly used the stairs! Great location to Frisco beach. Lots of neighborhood streets for biking and running too! Wonderful sunrise and sunsets views. We will be back!!

Spacious enough to accommodate a larger family with private rooms and baths while still providing areas to congregate comfortably. Kitchen is large enough for food prep allowing numerous folks to work at the same time. Pool and hot tub are great and outside shower and bathroom poolside are very handy.

The house is beautiful but could use a good deep cleaning. The hvac vents/returns all show dust and black mold.
