One block from the beach

A nice property, walking distance to the ocean, restaurants, and ice cream parlors! Pleasant deck with chairs and a side table where you can hear the surf while you enjoy your coffee or evening beverage. A better dining table would be nice, as the high-top isn’t comfortable for everyone.

Perfect location, only a few houses down from the beach.

Very clean with all the necessary items to make a great place to stay while at the beach. Good location being in Buxton makes it close to every thing on Hatteras Island. Good communication with the owners.

Pre-vacation Vacation

We stayed for 2 days before a week long vacation on the island with friends. This property is in a great location, perfect for 2. Fairly private for being close to other units. Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing location!

The Maiden was the perfect location for our first stay at OBX. Perfect size with 2 bedrooms and a living room/kitchen area. Outdoor shower was perfect for coming home from the beach. And location location location. A literal two minute walk down the street and you are on the beach! Would definitely recommend this place!
