Canal-Front Beach Cottage in Southern Shores
This beautiful 3-Bedroom, 2-Bathroom beach house is the perfect dog-friendly home for smaller families. If you're looking for the ideal place to spend your Outer Banks vacation on the water, this is the home for you! Bring your boat and enjoy your own private dock for easy access to the Currituck Sound while launching those early morning fishing quests or evening watersports sessions. No boat? No problem! Multiple private and public beach accesses are only minutes away, or if exploring is on your menu, use the nearby community sidewalks or VayK Gear Credit included with your rental to discover all the charm Southern Shores has to offer. No matter what your interest is, Sound Sanctuary is sure to be your choice canal-front vacation home year after year!
At the cottage, enjoy calm, easy mornings of watching the sun come in through the trees on the Front Porch as you rejuvenate for the day ahead. Spend time together with all your loved ones in the spacious Living Area with loads of natural light from the many windows. Enjoy a canal-front picnic for lunch under the large tree on the shaded patio while watching the local wildlife carry on their day. Whip up something delicious for dinner in the Kitchen with all modern appliances and enjoy it together in the Dining Area then adjourn to the Sunroom, Deck, or Patio where you can bask in the warmth of the brilliant Outer Banks sunshine that filters through in the late afternoon and watch the sun brighten up the sound! Round out your evenings with a campfire while watching the glorious sunset as the sky turns brilliant shades of pink and purple, reflecting off the water as the stars appear in the night sky.
When you're ready to get some sleep, head to one of the 3 Bedrooms that are absolutely perfect for unwinding and resting up after your long day exploring the best of the Outer Banks! You'll also find a Washer & Dryer for easy middle-of-the-week washes and 2 Bathrooms to keep everyone comfortable during your stay. The canal side Furnished Patio, Hammock, Grill, and Firepit provide the ultimate vacation experience that will have you coming back to this beautiful sanctuary year after year.

Enjoy a Small Coastal Town
Visitors to Southern Shores love this small, coastal town where you can enjoy quiet, unobstructed beaches while still being within close proximity to local shops and restaurants. A few miles down the road, a WalMart Supercenter, Food Lion, and Harris Teeter are available for all your supply and grocery needs. Pick up dinner to-go from Southern Shores Pizza or enjoy a night out at Steamers Restaurant where you'll find fresh, locally sourced seafood steamed up to perfection. Don't forget to swing by Crumbl to buy a fresh box of cookies for dessert! For a fun adventure, you and your friends can try escaping from one of the exciting rooms at OBXscape. You could also head north to Corolla to explore the 4x4 beaches and maybe catch a glimpse of the wild mustangs or head south to Kill Devil Hills and Nags Head where your family will be able to enjoy local attractions like the Wright Brothers Memorial, Jockey's Ridge, the Bodie Island Lighthouse and Jennette's Pier, just to name a few! No matter where you go or how you spend your Outer Banks vacation when you stay at Sound Sanctuary, you'll want to come back year after year!
