Ebb Tide-3 night minimum stay
Oceanside of Rt. 12 Getaway! Ebb Tide is a Rodanthe favorite! Enjoy the expansive deck with panoramic views of the Rodanthe area. Our home is on Dean Ave across from Lisa’s Pizza and it is a short 1/2 block walk to the beach!!! It took me 4 minutes and 57 seconds from the driveway to the beach!
Your days will be full of sun-soaked fun! The open concept living area boasts 360 views and plenty of seating. The screened in porch is a wonderful place to relax. We invite you to see for yourself why so many guests come back year after year!! Enjoy our cozy 3 bedroom 2 bath cottage with a relaxing sun porch and expansive deck. Outdoor seating for sunning, watching the kids play in the yard, watching a family friendly game of volleyball or enjoy dinner and cocktails under the stars.
Dean Ave. is a paved road leading to and ends directly at the beach. You will pass other fun beach houses on the road. Each home is beautifully different. You will park in our driveway and walk right into our home. Come visit the difference for yourself!!

The view was amazing! You can see, hear and feel the ocean from the deck! There is no dune to obstruct your view. The house was nicely decorated and very well stocked. The owners were very attentive and so easy to deal with. If you are a shell hunter or fisherman you will not be disappointed! We will return next year.
Matt and Christine are incredibly accommodating and even more communicative. The location is incredible. You are 45 minutes or less from everything (national parks, shopping, tourist traps, etc.).
The deck is on the beach, and when the tide comes in, it is literally above the Atlantic at times. Miles of beach await you in any direction. Locally, head south toward the Rodanthe Pier (arcade, shop, etc) or west up the street to the Rodanthe Surf Shop.
The house itself is very cozy, well furnished and recently updated. The pictures listed are 100% accurate. This was our first trip to the outer banks and we could not be happier with our stay.

Be aware of high tide and where you park your car!
The house is very clean and the hosts responded quickly to emails. We did have maintenance issues during our time there. The master toilet was inoperable, the dishwasher was tripping off, and the AC quit and had to be replaced so we had 3 nights of it being rather warm.
The huge issue is the parking situation and the beach erosion that can make for a disaster because of the parking location. There has been so much beach erosion at Rodanthe that houses have literally fallen into the ocean. This house no longer has a driveway or an adequate location for parking. At high tide, the waves literally crash up and under the house.
You will be parking at the end of a street, and the only thing between you and a high tide is a man-made dune. While we were there, a storm front blew in one day and there were thunderstorms most of the night. When we woke up the next morning, the high tide was washing up and over the dune at the end of the street. The sand from the dune washed down and swamped our vehicle. The vehicle was trapped and would not move. In addition, the street was filling with water.
We had to have a towing service come and pull our vehicle out of the sand, and then dash to a car wash 30 miles away to remove the sand and saltwater. All told, the cost was about $400. Whatever you do, DO NOT trust that the man-made dune will protect your vehicle from the high tide. Unfortunately, there are very few viable options for alternative parking. Just be aware.
Property was lovely! The stay was exquisite. A small issue with plumbing, but the owners tried to repair it while we were there, but there was another functioning restroom and it worked fine for our stay. The only concern was the difficulty in accessing the house. We managed ok, but was quite difficult to access in the sand with heavy coolers and luggage. A group that may have had mobility issues would surely have had far more difficulty.
The stay was perfect…..almost. Check-in was difficult because the code that we were supposed to use didn’t work. Not the owners fault at all! Something was wrong with the Internet on the whole island so that was an issue. Luckily, a guy that owned surf shop across the street, let me use his landline. So if you go and stay at the house take your time to go across the street and say hey to the owner of Rodanthe Surf Shop. Besides the check in process the week was the time of my life!
