The real thing
Life at Lucky Landing
Not stock photos — this is the actual cottage, the dock, and the island out your door.
An affordable 2-bedroom vacation rental in Avon, Hatteras Island, with a private soundside dock — where the fun is yours to bring, the crabs are yours to catch, and the only crowd is the one you arrived with.
There's no boardwalk here. No neon, no funnel-cake midway, no bumper-to-bumper strip. What Avon offers instead is space — a thin ribbon of sand between the Atlantic and the Pamlico Sound, where you fish off the dock at dawn, hunt ghost crabs by flashlight, and watch the sky go coral over the water every single night.
Bring your own fun. We'll provide the dock, the sunsets, and the quiet.
Tie up the boat, drop a crab trap, launch a kayak, or just dangle your feet over the canal with morning coffee. Direct water access to the Pamlico Sound.
The ocean beach, the Avon Pier, dinner, and the grocery are all a short stroll or pedal away. Park the car and leave it.
A turnkey "beach box" updated for comfort — no stairs to haul gear up, no fuss. Just flip-flops, towels, and you.
Avon's surf produced the all-tackle world-record red drum. The Gulf Stream charters are a short drive south in Hatteras Village.
The legendary "Canadian Hole" and Kite Point are minutes away — some of the best flat-water sailing on the East Coast.
The west-facing sound side of the island delivers the kind of sky-on-fire evenings the Outer Banks is quietly famous for.

Avon began as a boat-building village the Algonquian people called Kinnakeet — "that which is mixed." Today it's the unhurried heart of Hatteras Island: the island's only grocery store, its only two stoplights, and miles of uncrowded national-seashore beach.
From your door it's an easy reach to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse grounds, the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum, the free Ocracoke ferry, go-karts and mini golf in Frisco, and The Froggy Dog for weekend brunch and late-night karaoke.
