Only 50 feet from the beach via the boarded walkway, this home also features a wealth of community perks including tennis courts, a family-friendly neighborhood, and painless access to all of Corolla's favorite attractions. Eureka offers a great layout inside with a loft and a splendid ocean view. Surround yourself with family and friends while calming on one of the two levels of furnished decking, or getaway to your own private bedroom for a little rest and relaxation. With a bright and cheery kitchen and living area, and pops of color throughout, it's simple to ease into a vacation state of mind at this breezy vacation home. Ideal for oceanside retreats that are close to the beach, spending a vacation at this Corolla hideaway is always a “Eureka!” moment.

On the Ground Level of this adorable beach bungalow, take advantage of the Outdoor Shower that's ideal for rinsing off after a day at the beach, which is just 1 min. away! This means that surf and sand are never too far, making this the ideal spot for a beach-centered vacation filled with early morning walks along the water with the sunrise and hunting for ghost grabs in the evening as the stars make their way into the brilliantly clear nighttime sky.

On the main Middle Level, appreciate a cozy Living Area with beach-themed furnishings and aesthetically pleasing decor around a sizable Flat Screen TV that makes movie nighttime with the family a given. Eureka will feel like your home away from home as you whip up a delicious meal in the modern Kitchen to savor together in the Dining Area, with seating for 6, or out on the Mid-Level Covered deck with magnificant vistas of the dunes. Just imagine yourself waking up in the morning to the sounds of the waves and the smell of the surf as the birds welcome in the day with the rising sun. Get some rest in the Double Bedroom and settle in the kiddos in the Bedroom with a Bunk Bed Set and a Twin Platform Bed with its own Twin Size Trundle.

For some additional privacy, make your way up the loft with a table ideal for board games or catching up on work and cozy Full Sized Futon that creates the ideal place to curl up with a book while the sunlight filters in through the windows. Near the loft is a Queen Master Bedroom with a Private Bathroom, making this the ideal hideaway from some tranquility and peaceful while on vacation. And when it's time for more ocean air and a calming cup of tea in the evening, head back outside to the Crow's Nest overlooking the dunes where you can breathe in the rejuvenating ocean air as you watch the moon emerge over the water. Booking your vacation at Eureka today may be your best idea yet!

A Stay in Corolla is Always a Great Idea
You'll relish in the local history one day and relax on the broad, unobstructed beaches the next when you stay in the striking town of Corolla! On the northern beaches, you can go on a 4x4 tour to discover the Corolla Wild horses in their natural habitat and then stop by the Wild Horse Fund museum to learn about their origin. For another adventure, stop by the Corolla Adventure Park to test your endurance on an aerial obstacle course. Kids will adore the go-kart racing at Corolla RaceWay. Spend the day shopping by the close by TimBuck II Shopping Village with plenty of dining options for when you get hungry such as Mike Dianna's Grille Room, La Dolce Vita, North Banks Restaurant & Raw Bar, Big Buck's Homemade Ice Cream, and Mama Easley's—just to name a few! When you're not appreciating a meal at one of the many great eateries in the area, step into the past by exploring the historic Whalehead Club or climbing to the top of the Currituck Lighthouse for an striking 360-degree view of the surrounding town.

Strategies for getting the perfect vacation property experience:

When to visit Corolla & When to reserve a Corolla rental home:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the most suitable rental within your budget, we highly recommend reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at Currituck restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies supply Currituck area travel guides which will include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting and booking yourrental home:

• Select vacation dates and budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family requires. 1686 Eureka * 50ft to Beach * has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking pages. If not, call the host before reserving the rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to work out what configuration is right for your trip.
• If your family is bringing pets, filter your search for a rental that allows animals. Request details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a particular Currituck beach you long to visit, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

More tips for your visit:

• Get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the host right away to record any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors disrupting your peace. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a great vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
