How to spend your vacation at Carolina State of Mind:

Watch the sunrise over breakfast from one of the large rear decks. Stroll out the back gate and a few steps to the beach or stay home and enjoy the private pool area complete with a new hot tub and tiki bar. Play a game of volleyball, badminton, or bocce on the lawn, or make one of the upper decks your own box seat to watch a friendly tennis match on the community court adjacent to your backyard. On the front porches, take a late-day siesta, watch a round of HORSE at the driveway basketball hoop, or catch a spectacular sunset. If you must catch up on a little work online or want to shop or keep up with the friends and family, the internet is high speed (up to 100-140 Mbps) and reliable with strong WiFi signal throughout the entire property.

At night, enjoy a relaxing swim in the multi-colored lighted pool, make s’mores around the backyard fire pit, challenge the kids to a Foosball tournament or shoot some pool. Need a soundtrack? Feel free to stream your playlist throughout the house, back decks, pool, hot tub and tiki bar. If your energy levels are a little low from a day at the gorgeous Corolla beaches or the championship golf course, just relax with your favorite book or snag the remote to one of the 11 flat screen TVs featuring 290 Dish TV channels as well as HBO, Cinemax, Showtime, and Starz. Every TV is attached to a DVR and parental controls are easy to program so the kids lay claim to the media room or rec room while the grown-ups play cards or catch up on life on the upper level. This house truly has something for ages 1-100!

Household amenities include an outdoor shower and ½ bath conveniently accessible directly from the pool deck, yard and gate to the beach walk. There are full sized refrigerators in the tiki bar, the lower game room and the kitchen, as well as two dedicated beverage refrigerators on the main level and a third in the media room. In addition to the ice from the refrigerator freezers, there is a dedicated ice maker in the media room bar and two dishwashers.

The well-appointed kitchen has everything you need for your family meals. There’s counter seating for 5, a large dining table that generously seats 8 and an additional table that seats 4. A laundry room with 2 washers and 2 dryers lets you pack less and return home without dirty laundry.

Carolina State of Mind is over 5,400 square feet and has over 2,500 square feet of decks and porches. It is located adjacent to the southern beach access for Currituck County and is the only house on this dead-end street! In fact, when you turn onto Yaupon from Route 12, you will be confronted with a sign that prohibits vehicles. The only traffic allowed on Yaupon are guests staying at Carolina State of Mind and trolleys from the Currituck Club bringing guests to the beach access. A stockade fence and hedgerow make it very private yet is in the very epicenter of all that Corolla has to offer. When you return home from your vacation and tell your friends and coworkers that you were basically alone in a secluded oasis, they will just shake their heads and assume you got too much sun…you will just smile and start counting the weeks down to next year’s trip.

Bed and bath linens and bed-making are provided.

The pool may be heated for $500 per week.

  • Sun Select Home - Bed and Bath Linens Provided - WiFi

Layout:
Lower Level: Recreation room with pool and Foosball tables, pub chairs, refrigerator, sink, microwave and TV. Strategically it is important because the stereo receiver located in the cabinet here controls the source for the music at the pool, hot tub and tiki bar. Bedrooms on the lower level include two en suites with private baths — one with 2 twins and one with 1 king (the second bedroom with an easy entry threshold shower, assistance bars, a seat and a handheld shower head) – along with a final bedroom with a set of bunks, a pyramid bunk and a trundle (resulting in four single beds and one full bed in this bedroom) and a full hall bath just across the hall with a double vanity. All three bedrooms have direct access to the pool deck and are equipped with pool door safety alarms.

Mid Level: 4 en suites —3 kings and 1 queen, all with tiled baths and direct access to a front or rear deck. The first king suite includes a sitting area. The second king suite has a double vanity and is one of two bedrooms with a disabled accessible shower complete with assistance bars and low threshold entry. In the center of the second floor across from the elevator, double doors open to a media room with a large TV, bar, small refrigerator, ice maker and microwave.

Top Level: Living area, dining area, and kitchen, king en suite designed to be a haven of relaxation with a comfortable sitting area and a luxurious bath with tiled shower, soaking tub and a double sink vanity. Its sliding doors open to the third-floor rear deck with ocean views, also on this level is a half bath with the elevator off the living area.

house was great

My son said this was the first rental where the beds were comfy!! Kitchen was great. Need more wine glasses and glassware in general. Also more plastic cups to bring to the pool. The house was great and even more, Sun Realty was wonderful in responding to any issues that came up, which were very few.

really like the house

Everything was very comfortable with the bedding and living space. The only thing missing from the kitchen was the griddle which was there last year. We used that more than the grill and was a little disappointed it was removed. The house was great, however trying to get to the house on Saturday was difficult. We came early and intended to go to beach until 5, but no parking around the house is a problem. Other than that we really like the house.

Paradise Found!!

How much do I love Carolina State of Mind? Let me count the ways! The location is incredible! Steps to the ocean; grocery store, etc., right across the road; tennis practically in the backyard; house fully equipped with every gadget imaginable including 2 washers, 2 dryers, refrigerators galore; porch tables & chairs on every deck & poolside (I counted 51-can you believe it?); kitchen seating for 19 and even a highchair! Also spotted a crib & playpen for use in one of the closets. Loved the kitchen with the two dishwashers, lg. refrigerator, & 2 beverage refrigerators, plus multiple pans & kitchen tools. Recreation includes foosball, billiards, tiki bar w/ refrigerator poolside, hot tub, volleyball, & basketball - everything but a baseball field! The house itself is beautiful and furnished in excellent taste! It is more than handicap friendly with the elevator & handicap showers., We appreciated the media room on the rainy nights and the kids enjoyed the board games, coloring books & crayons we found in the living room. Carolina State of Mind was more than we could have hoped for. I tried to reserve it for Thanksgiving wk., but someone beat me to it. Thinking I better get busy and reserve for next year. The beautiful breeze & views from the decks will keep Carolina on your mind. However, I believe Carolina State of Mind should have been named Paradise Found. I want to live there forever!

weve been coming to the outerbanks for about a decade, and this is by far our new favorite.

If you are looking at this house because of needs of an elderly or disabled family member, (which we were needing these for both of my parents) you won't be disappointed as it has 2 bedrooms with bathrooms that have wider doors for wheelchair and solidly installed grab bars in the showers and fold down shower seats which was a huge help. but we were pleasantly surprised that Corolla recently converted the beach access (that is seriously right out a gate in the back yard, and a very short walk away.) to make it so that the large tire beach wheelchairs can easily get over the sand dunes. I can't imagine why we would choose any other house since it's an accessible house on the accessible beach location and all the beds were comfortable (there have been years where we've had to go buy a mattress topper in Kitty Hawk to make some of the houses we have stayed in tolerable for me to sleep all week. It Then we were even more pleased when we realized we didn't have to spend hundreds to rent one that week because there is a tent right on the beach across the dune with guys working for one of the resorts with carts and even the big beach/sand wheelchairs . If I understood correctly, it appears that because it's a public beach, they have to offer services to "the public" so there is no charge, though it's easy to be generous with a gratuity when you save so much not having to rent a sand wheelchair. They are very willing to transport all the way to the house. (which was simply the distance of a tennis court and one house) But back to the house. THe house felt much higher end than the other houses we have been in. It clearly was decorated and furnished professionally. The furniture and beds were all much nicer than some houses weve stayed in. It was just pretty, and felt so nice. at first I thoguth it was a brand new builld, but no, it's just a very well built house that feels new still because everything is high quality . The towels were so plush and luxurious . The kitchen didn't have amy kind of mixer, but it had everything else we needed. I wish I had noted the brand/model of the blender at the tikibar by the pool because it blended ice into amazingly smooth frozen bevarages. and the only thing that the house was lacking was some personal touches that make the different houses feel unique like when we find a big box of coloring books and craft supplies for the little kids on a rainy day or or something else that the owners thought would help make their house special. However, I'm sure that those extras are things that house owners add over time and this house is new to the rental market.

Perfect location

We rented this home for our multi-family vacation and LOVED everything about it. The elevator allowed my parents easy up and down access and made unloading groceries a breeze. The rooms are large with comfortable beds and room for everyone. The kids really liked the media room which allowed them to watch tv and have popcorn with just the kids while the adults relaxed upstairs. We all had fun shooting pool when we need a break from the sun. The tiki bar outside allowed us to make pitchers of frozen drinks beside the pool and hot tub. We felt like we had a private resort with the tennis courts literally in our backyard! It was awesome. We felt isolated from neighbors yet walked to the beach so easily!! Our favorite house-ever! We were ready to move in and the house was beautifully maintained and equipped with everything you could ever need. We loved it can you tell?
