About the host
Hosted by Pam
I live in the DC-metropolitan area and spend as much time as I can at the Sandbox. It is my little piece of paradise. This isn’t a ‘rental house’ to me…it is my home a good portion of the year and my retirement gift to myself. I rent it during the prime season not to make a profit, but just to enable me to have it. I very much enjoy interacting with my guests and take great pride in the nice comments and reviews I receive.
Why they chose this property
The house is located close to both the ocean and the Salvo Day Use beach area on the Pamlico Sound, which is very convenient. The ocean beaches and dunes in Salvo are very natural and wide (which I love) but they may be difficult for youngsters & someone with mobility issues, so the Day Use area is perfect for them. Generally quiet neighborhood that has several restaurants and food stores nearby, yet not at all commercial. A huge fishing and watersports area. Very dog friendly home with 330 sq ft fenced area accessible without you going outside in the rain!
What makes this property unique
My favorite things about my house are the 3 decks (especially the crows nest which is amazing for morning coffee and starry night skies), the all-season front porch and the dogs fenced-area which makes life so much easier!
