Gull Cottage
V12393What’s new
This is a premium location for rest, relaxation and play! Adjacent to the False Cape State Park, you can enjoy vacationing where the wild horses roam. This vacation retreat was constructed in a vintage maritime theme to transport you back to the golden days of THE BEACH HOUSE! Features include a retro-styled kitchen with all modern amenities including two full-size refrigerators, nautical lighting, antique furnishings and historical memorabilia. Antique architectural elements are used throughout the home, including hand-carved teak furniture pieces, as well as wooden floors, walls, and ceiling vaults! Each of the seven bedrooms features a unique nautical theme. Directly oceanfront, this home is perched atop the rolling dunes of Carova Beach and steps away from the secluded walk-in nature preserve at False Cape State Park. This is a vacation escape from the ordinary!
Approximately 10 miles up the beach.

Location
4x4 Location
4x4 Beach Area
At the northern end of Highway 12, where the pavement ends and the sand begins, the 4x4 beaches are one of the most remote and unspoiled stretches of the Outer Banks — home to wild Colonial Spanish Mustangs and miles of undeveloped coastline.
Community
Carova Beach
Situated on the wonderfully unique 4x4 Beaches, Carova Beach offers vacationing friends and families the opportunity to enjoy time together on the coast without the distractions of a bustling neighborhood environment. A four-wheel drive vehicle is needed to navigate the beaches where Carova Beach rental homes are located. The northern-most community of the 4x4 Beaches, Carova Beach is approximately 8 miles from the beach access ramp and stretches north for about 3 miles to the Virginia border. While there are no roads, restaurants, or shops in Carova Beach, what you will find is a breathtakingly beautiful & vast shoreline, roaming wild horses and a positively ideal vacation environment.
