Description Description
This adorable single-story home will become one of your favorite Hatteras Island getaway spots. Canal front but tucked away behind the Koru campus, you can enjoy all the perks of the island while still feeling a bit remote. Just across the highway, you will find public access to the Avon pier and miles of beach. Also within walking distance and a short drive are several restaurants, shops, and additional amenities the village has to offer. Drive further and explore all the wonderful villages of the island and beyond, such as Ocracoke and the aquarium in Manteo, just to name a few. Inside the home, you will find two lovely screened porches for your convenience and comfort. You will enjoy sipping your morning coffee or evening cocktail in a mosquito-free environment. There is also a dining set on the front porch for those al fresco meals. Everything you need is provided in the fully equipped kitchen, including a dining table. Gather around the living room and play games or watch a favorite movie. Outside you will find plenty of space for fun and games, a fish-cleaning table, and an outdoor shower to help keep your bed sheets sand-free. Sleeping options include three comfortable bedrooms with new mattresses for the 2024 season and additional conveniences like TVs and ceiling fans.

This is a wonderful place to say! Will consider booking again. The only compliant I had was dog feces in the driveway, side walk and side yard on the way to the outdoor shower. But all in all a wonderful place to stay!

This home was perfect for our little family getaway in Avon. Located at the end of a small side street, Far enough away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to run up to for more shopping and sight seeing. The home is well equipped in the kitchen. Bedrooms are spacious with comfy beds. The bunk bed was a little hard for my kiddo as the ladder is metal and rounded step rungs which hurt their feet climbing up (it's an older bed) but overall worked well. King and Queen in the other bedrooms with comfy beds (bring extra pillows) The home was overall clean ( other than the couple of roaches in the kitchen which I hear is common at the coast and cigarette butts on the front steps) TV's with streaming services that you will have to log into, we stayed busy so only turned the TV on once. Washer and dryer did not work properly. There were instructions to hold the broken door latch closed while you started it so that it would function properly, however, the spin cycle did not work at all. Very thankful it was just once hoodie I threw in to attempt to keep a stain from setting. Had to ring it out by hand and attempt to dry it in the dryer, which was also struggling. We asked for early check in but not allowed. There is plenty to do while you wait though, even in the off season. We would stay here again as the price is affordable and the space suites our family.

Perfect location ! Literally walking distance from the beach! The living / kitchen/ and bedrooms were spacious & immaculate. We enjoyed the screened in front & side porch to take in the outdoors. There were all types of fun games for every age group, of course I was serious about the horse shoes 😂 This was a pleasant surprise for my birthday vacay. A long drive but totally worth it! We will be back for spring!

Nice little place at the end of the street. We had booked the place for a fishing trip and was close to all the fishing spots that we planned on fishing. Over all we enjoyed our stay there.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Blue Bayou. The location is perfect as we choose to drive out on the beach instead of walking. There are several beach ramps and sound access ramps to drive out on. The house was centrally located to shops and restaurants. I highly recommend trying The Froggy Dog. The house itself is much larger inside than it looks from the outside. The screened in porches were fabulous and the outdoor shower was great for washing sand off of my 5 year old. He also enjoyed watching the minnows in the canal. Overall it was a great stay!

We have been renting this property for over 10 years and we are never disappointed. If you appreciate privacy and a place centralized to shops and activities, then this is the place for you. The screened porches are great for eating outdoors with family and just hanging out. The kitchen is well supplied with cookware and VACASA checked in with us to make sure all was well. The house is located at the end of a dead-end road and provides more than enough privacy. We will definitely be back.

The house was wonderful, clean and spacious. Dealing with VACASA was a nightmare. We checked on a Saturday, all was great. On Sunday, I needed to wash towels and the washer latch was broken. So I texted VACASA and they sent a repair man over. I showed him the problem and he said, " As soon as i saw the address and the complaint I knew what it was. This has been broken and we are waiting for a part any day now." What! They knew(per the Avon Office, they did not)! And they still rented it to me. So patient I as I am, I waited til Monday, because maintenance said the part would be here. But t it did not arrive. I texted VACASA and basically begged for towels to no avail. It was not til I went personally to the Avon office did I get any towels. I was promised a call from the agent but again to no avail I got none. I was told i could use their washer, which I did but I wasted a good portion of a days vacation in a sweat box washing clothes. I did get a small deduction from my bill but to me, they should have set me up in another rental. There was an obvious breakdown in their communications which led to a stressful vacation. I will probably look for rentals that are NOT VACASA in the future.

My family and I had a great stay at the Blue Bayou. The house was located in peaceful neighborhood, located, near restaurants and walking distance to the Avon Pier. The house was clean, and it had a fully stocked kitchen, with everything we needed. Nice A/C, spacious, and it also provided towels and bed linens. All in all, we had a nice stay, and I would book the Blue Bayou again.

This was the perfect little house for us. Very clean, everything is modern and up to date. Completely private next to the cove. We loved everything being on one floor and not having a ton of stairs. We will definitely be back

This home was so spacious and clean! Right on the canal, we were able to catch our own bait to go fishing with! The house has everything you need. Made life so easy! The dish detergent and laundry detergent was so helpful as we forgot to bring that stuff. We will certainly be back.. very soon!

We loved the layout of the house and the location! It is within walking distance to the pier and local eaterys. The only issue we had was the comfort of the queen and full size mattresses. They were extremely firm and uncomfortable. We'd love to stay here again but would need to know that the mattresses were changed before that happened.

The house was great to stay at. Off the main road in a quiet location and was just perfect for 3 old men that wanted to catch fish.

Our experience here was great. The house is in a quiet area, at the end of the street near the canal. Amenities are perfect and everything was clean and in working condition. One thing to note, there is a helipad behind the house. We were awoken one night by a helicopter conducting a life-flight. Otherwise, the property would have earned 5 stars.
