Daily Reflection

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Find ever-present fun and sun at Daily, a soundfront retreat situated at the end of a canal, where you'll have amazing views of the sun setting over the glassy Pamlico Sound.

Located in Avon, this three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom cottage comes packed with amenities and value, making it the perfect getaway for your small family or group. There's a fenced yard for your dogs, a fish-cleaning table, an outdoor shower, and a shallow private dock. Take advantage of the direct launching access for windsurfing and kayaking adventures. Daily also boasts two furnished sundecks - one on the bedroom level and a larger one on the top floor that overlooks the dock and the canal.

The first bedroom has two single beds and a TV, while the second has a queen bed and a TV of its own. A full bathroom sits across the hall. The third bedroom is a primary bedroom with a queen bed, a TV, and a full bathroom. Also on this floor is an intimate sunroom with a card table, a TV, a DVD player, a daybed, and the same gorgeous views straight down the canal into the Pamlico Sound.

Moving upstairs, the kitchen, dining room, and family room await. A half-bath is also located on this level. Sliding glass doors to the sundeck and tall windows allow natural sunlight to illuminate this area. Whether you're preparing your next meal or kicking back watching TV, the amazing view never fades from this vantage point.

Great Views at OBX

We really enjoyed our stay at Daily Reflection. Not only is there a great view from up top, but there is also a good one from the dock, and the beach itself isn't too far away.

Great location

Great location. Beautiful views. Kitchen well equipped. The only real downside, and this is a fairly big issue, is that ALL furnishings are due for an upgrade. Kitchen table not tall enough for the chairs provided and a little shaky. A complete mismatch of furnishings throughout the house. One of the bedframes so shaky, we thought it might collapse. With the income this house is bringing in, there is no reason for the lack of quality furnishings. Almost gave it three stars because of this.

Filthiest House I've Ever Stayed In

The pictures on the website are NOT what you see when you walk into this house. The fridge was orange with rust. Every bottom cupboard had some kind of spill or stain in it. There was dust everywhere. In the master bathroom, there was a clump of dog hair, so obviously they didn't vacuum well. The mirror was covered in black spots, so much so that I had about a 12 inch round space where I could see to do my make-up. And then there were the roaches. Do NOT ever stay in this house.

Really good, but could be great

We absolutely loved the location! Being sound front and able to fish and kayak out back was the best! The house is set up nice, but the furniture is literally falling apart in the living room/kitchen area. We had to sit w caution afraid we were going to break something as it's all on its last leg. The drains in both showers are so clogged that you have to wade in about 6" of water during a shower. We gave it 4 stars because of ease of rental and location. Just update a few things for safety and hygiene and it would be an amazing house!

Disappointing with an amazing view

The views could not have been better! Unfortunately, the owner doesn’t seem to put any effort into making the place nice or comfortable. The living room furniture was simply awful. There was not one place to sit inside this house that was comfortable. The sofa and decorative pillows are old and dirty. The coffee table is a joke- it looks like someone got it from the dump. It was so wobbly that you could not put a cup of coffee on it without it spilling. The refrigerator had rust all over the front of it and so did the mirror in the bedroom. Everything in the house was old and cheap, including the cookware. Everything looked like it either came from the dollar store, the flea market or the goodwill. Once again I will reiterate that the view was spectacular- but I think you can probably find a great view plus a place where the owner cares about your comfort all in one place. We will not stay here again. However, We were pleased with the feedback, checkin and checkout service with Vacasa.

Beautiful view and great location but house needs TLC and updates

Beautiful sound views and great location but the house itself needs updated furniture (in particular, dining table (too low to sit at cannot fit legs under the table, dining chairs (very wobbly and unstable), upstairs furniture is insufficient for number of people and very uncomfortable. We have stayed here 5 times and this past stay decided it was our last due to further deterioration inside and lack of any improvements to the interior furnishings. It wouldn’t take much money to improve the comfort for vacationers. Also our last visit due to the above and the increase of almost $1,200 for the week rent.

Fantastic home away from home

Just what we needed in Hatteras- well thought out house lay out- perfect view from the whole second floor.. and comfortable bed. What more do you need on Vacation? Mother nature supplies the rest! great outdoor shower and well supplied kitchen without being too fancy.. I don't need fancy on Hatteras! I think that covers it. Thanks so much to the Daily family for sharing their summer place with us!

We had a great time staying here. Family time is the best time. Loved the view from the upper deck. We would hang out there every morning and evening. The views were amazing! Loved the little gated doggy park. Wish we could have had access to the kayaks

Can't Beat the Views

The views from the living area at this home could not be beat. Absolutely gorgeous. I saw that some people had complained about the stains on the carpets but that didn't bother us. We were too busy looking out the window or paddling out to the sound.

Our family had a wonderful time at Sea Salt. The location is spectacular. We loved the sweeping views of the ocean from every room. The house is tastefully decorated and the furniture very comfortable. We can`t wait to come back. This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.
