About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Cottage, great for a couple or small family.

This cottage has a wonderful front porch for enjoying sitting outside and relaxing. The view is of Teeters campground. It was renovated in 2018 and a second bedroom was added in 2019. It is a two bedroom (queen in the master and bunk beds in the other)we do NOT provide sheets, one bath, open floor plan with living room and kitchen. The kitchen is very basic, if you are planning to cook gourmet meals, this is NOT the place for you. Ocracoke has many wonderful restaurants. The location is within walking distance to Silver Lake and the shops and restaurants and is spitting distance from the British Cemetery. The beach is a mile from the rental. There is a Smart TV in the first bedroom and living room with internet and cable. You will need your own Netflix, Hulu or Amazon account, and for those that are not tech savvy, we have cable. We do NOT post on Craigslist, so if you see it there it is not us renting it. We only go through VRBO/Home Away.

We do not offer refunds for weather related cancellations, ferry issues or illness. We highly recommend that you purchase optional travel insurance. If you want to do early check in there is an additional $45 fee. It is extra added stress for our cleaners to have everything ready for those that get here on an early ferry. Normal check in time is 3:30 pm and check out time is 11:00. If you want to check out late it is a $100 fee.

Thank you!
We enjoyed our stay. The host was communicative and being able to book last minute was easy. Plenty of room for us and in a great quiet location. Being able to sit on the large porch and drink coffee in the mornings was a plus! Plenty of windows to open or close depending if you want to enjoy the sunshine or enjoy privacy! Thank you for allowing us to your home! A little piece of paradise!

Sweet stay
A great little cottage at a great price. Nicely located to walk everywhere. Kitchen had everything we needed when we did cook in. We did not take advantage of it but there is a cart right on site. Our only complaint was the living room TV. The only channel we were able to get was PBS.

Wonderful stay!
We loved our stay at the buccaneer. It had everything we needed, including the availability to rent a golf cart. Renting a golf cart really enhanced the stay, allowing us to travel around Ocracoke easily. The location was great, super convenient to the village. Ellen and Russell were fantastic hosts, super responsive and very helpful. Overall, we had a wonderful stay. I would love to come back another time!

Lovely stay as always
This was our second time staying at the Buccaneer and I'm sure we'll do it again. The place is the perfect size for a small family and has everything you need. We love that there's an outdoor shower and a charcoal grill. The induction cooktop takes a little getting used to, but we're pros now and it's super fast. Only complaint was the wifi signal was pretty weak - my little guy likes to stream TV in the living room and we couldn't get anything to load. Other than that, it was absolutely perfect! Extra points for being close to the Back Road. We love the scenery (and shade!) on our morning runs and little excursions. It was super convenient to have the golf cart to zoom around in also! Will definitely book again.

Cute and convenient
This was our first time staying on the island and we were there for a family event. The Buccaneer was the perfect size for 2 - 4 people. We rented their golf cart to get around the island and had a great time driving around. We also were lucky with the weather and got 3 great beach days. I knew going down there was not a full kitchen. The convection stove was difficult to cook on and there is no oven / dishwasher. If being able to cook is important to you be aware of these difficulties. Otherwise it was fine.

Great homebase for a long stay on Ocracoke
Ellen and Russ were fantastic and super friendly! The location of this cottage could not be beat. It is within walking distance of everything in the village. The cottage had everything we needed for our week-long stay and was nicer than the pictures give credit to.

Return trip
Overall my wife and I love this place, it’s clean and cozy. If you’re use to a 3000 sq. ft. place, this is not for you, but if you want cozy & intimate, this is it. It was our 2nd stay, and it will likely not be the last. I would give 5 stars but my only complaint is the AC. I know not everyone needs or uses air, but I feel the window units are just not powerful enough. It was fine in the bedroom if you shut the door though. The outdoor shower is great and private and the owners are very good at responding to messages.

First Time to OBX
We were so pleased with The Buccaneer. This was our first time traveling to the OBX so we weren't sure what to expect. The house had everything we need (bring your own sheets and towels!) and was the perfect size for us (2 adults, 2 children). The outdoor shower was so handy for beach days. The location was great for being close to all things in the village, and the golf cart rental was great. Communication with the owners was quick and easy. I'd recommend this spot to anyone! Not a single negative experience, not even bugs!
