POP'S PLACE - Vacation rental home in Corolla, NC

Nine bedrooms, nine private baths, a 30 x 14 private pool, and a hot tub set POP'S PLACE apart, and that extra room shows in the rec room with wet bar, the media room, and an elevator serving every level. Carolina Designs invites you into a Whalehead estate where bedrooms open to ocean-view decks, and the Atlantic is just steps from the pool deck.

Overview

There's something about arriving at Pop's Place that allows everyone to relax in comfort, create unforgettable family memories, and leave fully rejuvenated. Spend your Outer Banks vacation in this oceanfront estate offering a host of amenities and classic nautical touches. This retreat features an open great room, panoramic ocean views, beach access from the pool area as well as from the first floor oceanside deck, an elevator serving every level, nine bedroom suites with private baths, and fun entertainment options for every age. Both the first and second floors have oceanfront decks spanning the width of the house, so there is always a shaded chair or a sunny railing with your name on it. Another wonderful feature of this home is the deck access: six of the nine bedrooms offer access to covered or open decks with ocean views. Twelve TVs, free high-speed wireless internet, nine parking spaces, and a Saturday check-in make hosting a large group simple, and two dogs are welcome with an additional fee. The popular community of Whalehead is close to the boutiques, casual and upscale dining options, and activities of the Timbuck II shopping center, with the Currituck Beach Lighthouse and the wild horses of the northern beaches a short drive away.
