About Susan Mercer
My husband Tom and I live just across the Virginia state line in Chesapeake. He is a minister and I am a special education teacher in Chesapeake Public Schools. I have dreamed of owning beach property throughout my entire life. Recently we had the opportunity to make this dream come true with the purchase of Sonrise (formerly called Marjo). We have four children-three sons and a daughter. Our oldest son is married to a wonderful young lady and they have blessed us with a grandson. Our daughter is a minister in Virginia Beach. She just got married this fall. Our younger sons live with us and continue to keep us busy. We love to spend time together at the beach and are looking forward to making many special memories at Sonrise.
Susan Mercer purchased this cottage in 2012
Why Susan Mercer chose Outer Banks
When we began our search for beach property with our real estate agent she put together a list of about 17 properties for us to view. Sonrise was the very first cottage we saw. We both really liked it, but wanted to view other properties as well. Although it wasn't the fanciest cottage we saw, Sonrise had a compelling charm that kept calling us to return. We love the layout of the cottage with so much of the living area overlooking the ocean. We love having a private pool and a hot tub to relax in after a long day. The master bedroom has a king bed and a private balcony overlooking the ocean. Who could ask for anything more? We hope that you will enjoy our home as much as we do.
What makes this cottage unique
'Sonrise' is located near shopping, restaurants and grocery stores. This oceanside cottage is extremely convenient for a beach vacation. Beach access is only 200 ft. away. An outdoor shower is available to help you rinse off before going back into the cottage after a visit to the beach. A private pool gives you the ability to swim not only during the day, but also at night, and for those times when the ocean is just too rough to safely swim. There is nothing more relaxing than a little time in the hot tub at the end of a long day. The cottage is beautifully decorated and will allow you to peacefully relax and enjoy your time in the Outer Banks of North Carolina.

Another Great Sonrise Vacation
We had another great week at Sonrise this year. The weather was perfect and the cottage was great again this year. We have stayed at Sonrise for many years now and will return. The location is perfect and the owner's keep the house in great condition. We enjoyed the pool and the hot tub throughout the week. The owners are very friendly and alway's a joy to work with and keep in touch with throughout the year.
Great vacation at SONRISE cottage
Property was exactly as described the salt water pool was wonderful and the proximity to the beach was great. The owners were a joy to work with and we hope to return next year.
Beautiful beach house!!
This was our first stay in the Outer Banks! We feel very lucky to have found such a beautiful beach house in a nice quiet area! It had everything we needed! The pool was a hot spot for us with our girls and the ocean right across the street! And we truly enjoyed the screened in porch, where we ate all our meals! Susan was wonderful with all details! Thank you again and we plan to return in the future!
A five star stay at Sonrise
We experienced a great family get away at Sonrise in Kitty Hawk. This was our first visit to the Outer Banks and it was so enjoyable. The cottage location provided easy beach access, the beach chairs were a plus, the pool and hot tub were a hit. We watched the dolphins swim up and down the beach!! It was great and very relaxing! The cottage was laid out nicely with the screened in eating area and the balcony off the master. The kitchen was adequately equipped and the charcoal grill was nice for cooking outside. Susan was such a great help during the deciding process, the reservation process and always able and willing to answer my many questions! Thank you for allowing us to share your cottage! We hope to return!!!
Wonderful place. Conveniently located. Everything he had looked for. Five stars all the way !!!
We searched for a long time to find a place like this. We weren't disappointed. The house was clean, nicely decorated, and we'll equipped. The owners welcomed us and made sure everything was ready for us. The pool was spotless and just the perfect size. You can see the ocean from the house and was only a few steps away. We were thrilled to hear the sounds of the ocean when we woke up and went to bed. Could not have been more pleased with this beautiful home away from home.
The "Sonrise" is gorgeous !!! Hope to come back next year.
Simply amazing!
Our stay at Sonrise was amazing. My family and I enjoyed an amazing week with my parents for our first stay in the Outer Banks. From the moment I reached out to Susan about renting this cottage, I had an amazing feeling that this was the perfect home for our first trip. Every aspect of planning this trip was easy. We knew we had chosen the perfect house from the moment we walked in. It was in pristine condition, and the photos of the inside, the pool, and the short trip to the beach didn't do this cottage justice. Our family enjoyed fishing, swimming, the pool, the amazing screened in porch, and all of the recommendations to eat and relax. The cottage is perfectly equipped, adorably decorated, and you will never want to leave. Staying at this house is an amazing experience, and anyone who gets to do it will have a perfect week!
Map
Sonrise is located on the beach road at MP 2 in Kitty Hawk.This means that you are almost there as soon as you cross the bridge to the OBX. Beach access is only 200 ft. from the cottage. There are several restaurants close by including The Black Pelican and a local favorite, Henry's. We really enjoy Chilli Peppers at MP 5.5 on the main road, and Kill Devil Grill at MP 9.5 on the beach road. John's Drive-In on the beach road has amazing milkshakes and delicious fast food. Numerous restaurants and shops are located throughout the Outer Banks. A trip to the grocery store is a quick 5 minute drive. Tanger Outlet Center is only 14 miles away.
