Photos and Description of the Rodanthe vacation cottage rental
3 Bedrooms - 1 full bath. Nice for the Family or Fishing Friends - Internet

Address: 24233 Atlantic Dr., Rodanthe, NC 27968. A great cottage for a budget vacation on Hatteras Island, and just 500' from the Rodanthe Fishing Pier and beach. Completely remodeled in 2008/09 and updated each year, this Saturday to Saturday rental cottage provides you with relaxing comfort. The three bedrooms are Queen, Full and Bunk. It's fully equipped kitchen is a plus to preparing those home cooked meals!

A small lake behind the cottage porovides great practice for honing one's fishing skills before heading for the 'big water'. Yes, there are good sized fish in it! Renting the cottage also comes with a free fishing and/or sightseeing pass to the Rodanthe Fishing Pier for up to 6 persons staying in the cottage.

Rodanthe is central to all points of interest on the outer banks and provides easy access to the many wonders of the Islands, including the Wright Brothers Museum in Kill Devil Hills; the Acquarium in Manteo; 5 Lighthouses located at various points of the Outer Banks, and Hatteras Village where one can ride the free car ferry to Ocracoke Island to enjoy its many historical sights and its quaint village. Rodanthe has bicycle, kayak and sailboat rentals as well as several local fishing stores and surf shops.

Then, after a fun filled OBX day, relax in the great 6-person hot tub where you can enjoy the sound of the surf breaking onto the beach.

WE URGE YOU TO READ THE GUEST REVIEWS AS THEY TELL IT ALL!

About Larry or Janet Jennings, owners

We are a married retired couple who love the ocean. We purchased our first rental property on Hatteras Island in 2001, and this one in 2004. Lived in Rodanthe for 3 years (2006-2009), and became investors in other rental properties. We learned from our own renting experiences that what's most important to renters is cleanliness, quality furnishings, well equipped kitchen, and most of all honesty on the part of the owners! We make every effort to provide all of these, and the guest reviews herein confirms this! We will always provide the very best to our guests!

Larry or Janet Jennings, owners purchased this cottage in 2004
Why Larry or Janet Jennings, owners chose Rodanthe

It's an older beach box type home, but well decorated and maintained. We see it as a cozy warm home away from home, and our guests apparently agree as it has a 5 star rating by all that have submitted reviews.

What makes this cottage unique

Close to the beach & fishing pier (523 feet). Comes with a free fishing pass to the pier for up to 6 persons staying in cottage. Has great 6 person hot tub.

Wonderful cottage

5 of 5
Submitted: September 14, 2009 Stayed: September 2009
This is a wonderful cottage. We like it so much we have stayed there twice this year. The cottage is very clean and well kept. It is just as you see it in the picture . It comes with a washer/dryer, fully furnished kitchen, and great heating/air system. There is a fishing pond out back, it is just a short walk to the pier/beach, and comes with free fishing passes to the pier. Located around this cottage is shopping, dinning, and attractions for all ages. The owners are just wonderful to work with and even called us to make sure our stay was going well. This rental is worth every penny.

Owner's Response: Dear Larry and Kellie:

We truly appreciate your generous comments on Cottage By The Pier!

There's really nothing to add as you've covered it more thoroughly and said it much better than we could have were we posting it for rent on a website or in a newspaper!

Thank you, also, for you kind words of my wife and I. Our continuing goal is to always provide our guests with comfort and relaxation away from home as that's what we believe "vacation" means!

It is comments such as your that makes it all worthwhile!

Larry and Janet

Great memories made!

This was a perfect cottage for our family and everything was exactly as described. The proximity to the beach was even better than we imagined. The pier was great for fishing and sight-seeing, and the beach was very quiet. The owner responded immediately when we needed assistance. Everything inside was well-maintained and clean. Kitchen supplies were more than adequate. We spent a day at the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse and had other outings planned, but honestly were content just being at the beach and in the hot tub! We would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a place to stay in Rodanthe.
Owner's Response: Dear Adrinne:

Thank you so much for the kind words regarding your stay in Cottage by the Pier. We are both grateful and humbled when our guests take the time to write such wonderful reviews! We're also extremely happy that you enjoyed fishing on the Pier and were able to take advantage of the free pier pass we provide for our guests, as well as the hot tub that comes with renting the cottage. We look forward to serving you when you again plan to vacaton on Hatteras Island, and we promise that we will continue to provide the very best in accommodations to you and to all who choose Cottage by the Pier as their vacation home away from home!

Sincerely,

Larry and Janet J.

Spring Kiteboarding Trip

5 of 5
Submitted: March 27, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
My husband and I booked “Cottage By The Pier” for a long weekend of kiteboarding in Waves. My parents and our pet dog joined us. The cottage had been updated since the photos were taken, so it’s even nicer than shown in the online pictures. Don’t let the 800 sq. ft. floor area fool you. Four adults and 1 dog and we never felt cramped – even during an unseasonably chilly March weekend where the indoor space got much use! The hot tub came in very handy and made it feel like Summer when the sun was shining on us. The kitchen is impressively well-equipped for the space. I’ve stayed in large vacation homes with fewer kitchen amenities.

It was really fun having the pier right there, which opened for the season during our stay. While the fishing was not good for us we did see migrating pilot whales, which was a first for all of us and very exciting!

Overall, Cottage By The Pier was a fantastic beach cottage for our stay! Clean, cozy, and well-appointed. Larry was very attentive and great to work with! Thumbs up!
Owner's Response: Dear Lindsey:

Your very kind words regarding "Cottage by the Pier" are most appreciated and makes our efforts to provide the best for our guests all worthwhile!

There's nothing we can add for you have said it all when you describe the cottage as clean, cozy and well-appointed for that is always the goal we seek to achieve.

Thank you!

Sincerely,

Larry and Janet J.

Wonderful fall getaway!

Submitted: October 22, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
We had an amazing time! Can't wait to come back next year. The Cottage by the Pier was exactly what we needed. Great small home for just a few people! It was clean and bright with plenty of room for us. Everything we could have needed was right at hand! The hot tub was the hightlight of my daughter's stay! We were just a short walk from the beach. Larry was prompt to return my call, which was just lack of knowledge on my part, and was very friendly and helpful! We will definitely seek out their properties in the future!
Owner's Response: Dear Dawn:

We are so very pleased you have joined many other previous guests in writing such kind remarks on your stay in our cottage. We do sincerely appreciate them, and promise you that we will continue providing the very best in accommodations. Our trademark has and will always be "OUR GUESTS COME FIRST"!

Thank you!

My husband and I decided to rent this cottage as our originally planned rental was cancelled by the owner. This was a last minute rental, we booked the afternoon before we arrived, and the owner was very understanding. We were able to make the payment through the Homeaway service, which was great, and we received our deposit promptly. The cottage was in great condition, very clean and close to the beach. Everything necessary was provided (review the amenities section.) You will need to bring laundry detergent and dishwashing liquid if you plan on using the laundry and dishwasher. As well as dish soap, dish sponge and hand soap, bathroom tissue, and paper towels. The hot tube looks brand new, very clean and nice. We enjoyed our stay very much, the weather turned out great for us. We would definitely rent this cottage again if the opportunity arose.
Owner's Response: Hi Mora:

We are so glad that you enjoyed your time at the beach; that you found the cottage as advertized, and that we were able to help after another rental owner had canceled your reservation.

Thank you for taking the time to write a 5-star review of your experience. We are sorry that you had to provide your own laundry and dishwater detergents, as well as paper products. We did at one time provide all except the laundry detergent, but had to stop due due to the potential liability risk as some people have allergic reactions to certain soaps and paper products.

We do look forward to serving you in the future!

Sincerely,

Larry and Janet J.
