Amazing sunsets
This is our third year at Serene Sound. Always a fantastic stay. The house is perfect. We love having our dogs with us. And fishing off the pier is always great. One of our group has mobility challenges, so we really appreciate the walk onto the fenced pier right out the back door

Beautiful Property, spectacular western expansive water views, charming house with modern coastal vibe, everything was five star especially our gracious hostess Olga! Walking distance to historic downtown Manteo and short drive to beaches. We hope to be fortunate enough to return for another wonderful stay.
