Unforgettable Beach House at the Salty Seal!
You will love everything about this beautifully decorated 3-Bedroom, 2-Bathroom canalfront home in the heart of the Outer Banks. The Salty Seal offers waterfront living at its finest. Located right along the canal in the popular boating community of Colington Harbour, this home will “wow” you the second you walk through the door. The Salty Seal is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, meaning easy morning walks away from traffic and perfectly peaceful access to the water in the meantime.

You'll find plenty of parking at the lovely vacation rental and when you pull up, you'll know that your ultimate waterside vacation has begun. Pass the convenient Outdoor Shower that's ideal for rinsing off after you've spent some time near the sound. The Ground Level also boasts the Washer and Dryer, meaning no more lugging those sandy beach towels upstairs when you can rinse them right here on the lower level. You'll also find Kayaks and lifejackets of various sizes available for use during your stay, so there's no shortage of things to do on the Outer Banks! Further inside, have fun with the kids and enjoy plenty of indoor entertainment with the Game Room. Take advantage of the Flat Screen TV and a beautifully-decorated interior that helps calm and relax you into the peaceful serenity of an Outer Banks afternoon. Stay busy on a rainy day with a Foosball Table, Electronic Darts, and lots of games and puzzles that are sure to provide a pleasant reprieve from summer traffic! Get some sleep in the Queen Bed or simply relax on the plentiful comfortable furniture provided. You'll also find a Full Bathroom nearby for ease of access when you're just ready to get back out onto the canal! And when you just need some outdoor fun, be sure to take advantage of the Colington Harbour Community Amenities that include a sound access, a playground, a sheltered picnic area, and a basketball court, all available to ensure that the fun at The Salty Seal never stops! With indoor games, a pool, a comfortable cul-de-sac, and more than enough to do in the backyard, you'll love bringing your kids to this fantastic home year after year.

Upstairs, on the Main Level, you'll be greeted by a spacious Living Area with lots of comfortable furniture, high ceilings, and gracious decor that is sure to immerse you in the quiet comfort of canalfront living. Gather around the Flat Screen TV for family movie night or an afternoon of your favorite shows on a rainy afternoon. Step out onto the expansive Sun Room with your daily cup of coffee to enjoy the sunrise over the canal and enjoy a quiet breakfast in the warmth of the Outer Banks sunshine. Cook up some fresh, local seafood in the Kitchen with all modern appliances to enjoy in the spacious open-concept Dining Area. Pass by the Full Hallway Bathroom, easily accessible for everyone on this floor, and get some sleep in the King Bedroom, the Queen Bedroom, or the Bedroom with a Twin Single and a Full Bad that are situated ideally to keep your loved ones close by while still ensuring that everyone has the space they need to relax and unwind. When it comes to stunning views, easy and direct access to the water, and unmatched opportunities for outdoor recreation right in your own backyard, it doesn't get any better than a stay at The Salty Seal! Book your vacation today and let the fun begin!

Quiet Community With Ample Attractions
Colington Harbor is a beautiful, secluded island community offering amazing views and ample opportunity for crabbing, fishing, kayaking, and an array of other watersports! Situated about 15 minutes back from the main bypass, you are never far from something fun to explore or something good to eat. Try a tasty slice from Colington Pizza (they even deliver!) or sample a crab benedict and mimosa for Sunday brunch at The Saltbox Café. Colington Café is another great place to enjoy the local fare, especially if you're celebrating a birthday or anniversary. If you enjoy cooking at home, stop by Billy's Seafood Market for a fine selection of fresh seafood including everything from shrimp and oysters to mahi-mahi and tuna. While you're out exploring, be sure to stop by the Wright Brothers National Memorial where you can experience an interactive museum about the nation's history of aviation and enjoy a 360-degree view of the surrounding beach as you stand beside the famous monument. There's also a great public bike and walking path nearby along with dozens of shops and other great activities to ensure your vacation is a blast!

September 16, 2023 OBX Vacation
The house was perfect and located on a canal which was ideal for kayaking. There was only one working kayak paddle; we think there should be three kayak paddles since there are three kayaks in the house. On the TV, they had Roku and Hulu which was not of much use to us. At our home, we are used to having network programs (for example live programs on NBC, CBS, ABC etc.) and other live channels like Golf Channel. Also, they don't have local TV stations which we like to have to keep track of the local weather and other local information. So, the TV was a negative. Colington Harbor is located about four miles from Route 158 (the main road on the OBX) So, that added about 15 minutes to every trip we took away from Colington Harbor. Potential renters of this property should be made aware of this.
