Conveniently located with easy access to local shops, restaurants, marinas, museums, and the Ocracoke ferry.
You will find the main living area with an open floorpan on the second floor along with a king master bedroom. Step out of the living room onto the expansive second floor decks boasting endless views of the Pamlico sound.
The third floor offers a king master bedroom with deck access, a queen bedroom with deck access, and a king bedroom.

Passionate about fishing? For Reels and Hatteras Island offer fisheries unlike anything else on earth. Being positioned where the warm waters of the Gulf Stream and cold waters of the Labrador currents meet makes Hatteras Island one of the most diverse fisheries on earth. For Reels offers sound side fishing from the backyard or from your boat or kayak docked just feet from the house. Common catch in Pamlico Sound include Red Drum, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Sheepshead, Crab, Shrimp, and Clams. A five minute walk to the neighborhood beach access offers world class surf fishing for Red Drum, Speckled Trout, Pompano, Flounder, and Spanish Mackerel to name just a few common species. Looking to fill the freezer? Book a private charter for a trip out to the Gulf Stream in pursuit of Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, King Mackerel, Sailfish, Swordfish, or Marlin. Hop on the 75 foot Miss Hatteras party boat for an affordable offshore bottom fishing trip where common catch includes Triggerfish, Snapper, Grouper, Tilefish, and Sea Bass among many others.

The garage is not accessible to renters.
For Reels is located in Hatteras Estates, which is a quiet residential HOA. There is private beach access across highway 12 from the Civic Center (look for "HEPOA Private Beach Access" sign).
Dogs under 40 pounds are allowed. $150 additional cleaning fee per dog. No more than 2 dogs allowed on the property.
A propane grill is provided, but we do not offer propane tank filling service. If the propane tank is empty and you would like to use the grill, you can exchange the tanks at the Village Red & White Market located 1.3 miles down Highway 12.
Our house is not managed by a professional property management company. We own and manage For Reels remotely and have great local teams to support our guests. We will do our best to accommodate your needs and address any issues that arise, but Hatteras’ remote location makes it very difficult to address some issues quickly.
For Reels uses a septic system that is rated for 8 occupants. For Reels has an extremely strict 8 person occupancy limit. Over occupancy will cause the septic system to fail resulting in extremely expensive repairs or system replacement. The septic system is easily damaged by flushing any non biodegradable products or chemicals down the toilet or drains. Examples of items that cannot be flushed are paper towels, Kleenex, cotton swaps, dental floss, feminine hygiene products, and cooking grease or oil.
For Reels is located in Hatteras Estates, which is a quiet residential HOA. For Reels is the only vacation rental on the street. Many of the homes on the street are occupied by full time residences who enjoy the quiet and tranquil neighborhood. If you are hosting a rowdy group, please do not book For Reels

Exceeded our expectations
For Reels exceeded our expectations on so many levels. The views of the Pamlico Sound were barr none, the best of any soundside home we've rented. The house was clean top to bottom, beds comfortable, kitchen well appointed with everything we needed. The hot tub and grill worked great!
Matt was attentive from our arrival through departure date. We will most definitely return to For Reels next May!
If you want amazing views, a beautiful and comfortable home, a wonderful and friendly neighborhood and an easy walk to the beach, then please book this home for your next rental. As soon as we walked in, we felt at home and knew that our week's stay would be great. Well stocked kitchen, beautifully decorated rooms, comfortable furniture and beds, amazing decks, library and game room (great for puzzles) and beautiful fireplace (although not used due the beautiful weather). Matthew and Andrea are wonderful hosts and always responded so quickly whenever I needed them. ForReels will always be my Number 1.
