Dock Holiday! with Boat Dock & Pet Friendly

Dock Holiday is a 2,073 sq ft, fully remodeled ranch style home that is located in a unique friendly neighborhood and sits right on the canal.

This home is a clean and beautifully furnished Pine Knolls Shores Vacation Rental that has an open floor plan for plenty of entertainment. WiFi, cable and outdoor shower. A street legal golf cart is available with this vacation rental for a small fee. Bring your furry family to enjoy this time with you.

This quaint ranch home is secluded and very private home and is shaded by maritime forest and is part of the Pine Knolls Shores Association. Dock Holiday has one king size bed, one queen size bed and two double beds, as well as plenty of open space for extra air mattresses if needed.

The open concept allows for cooking and visiting with family and friends at the same time. There is plenty of room on the deck and lower patio to enjoy the outdoor setting by cooking on the grill or just enjoying the fresh air. Begin or end your day by relaxing and reading a book in the amazing sunroom, while watching boats drift by on the canal. Then go jump in your boat at your very own boat dock and take a cruise out into the beautiful sound and watch an amazing sunset. This home is a boaters dream.

The large garage has plenty of room to store your bikes, kayaks or other outdoor equipment you may bring for an enjoyable vacation. No bikes or kayaks? Rental of both is available at many places on the island. With your own dock, it is very easy to put the kayaks in and out.

The beach is only a short distance by car or golf cart with plenty of parking available. Several boat ramps are available for your use also. Two Pine Knolls Shores Access Cards grant access to neighborhood boat ramps, parks and oceanfront parking.

Make this home your dream vacation and come stay at Dock Holiday! You will never want to leave.

Great place for the boat!

Great place to stay, especially if you want to bring your boat. There is a small floating dock and there are a few ft of water even at low tide. Short golf cart or car ride to the beach.

Dock Holiday fun

We had a great stay at this property. Finding nice accommodations that are dog friendly can be a struggle, however this property provided all that we needed. Having the golf cart to use for beach trips was also a favorite of our child. Would definitely recommend this house and we are likely to return some day.

Wonderful Location and a beautiful home!

I have zero complaints about this property. It was clean and well stocked with linens and kitchenware. One small hiccup with the wrong code to check in but the property manager answered our call and walked us through the steps to gain access. It was a lovely vacation and a wonderful neighborhood. I will certainly be booking again.

Great home base

The home has custom charm but has been very well updated (extensively). Open layout was perfect, inside very nicely appointed, and outdoor views live up. Neighborhood is very quiet and communal residential feel. Can’t think of a single thing we needed - maybe a set of beach chairs would’ve been nice in the garage, but only because forgot ours at home. Easy drive to all of the splendor of the island. Manager plenty communicative but not overbearing. Just right - everything went smoothly. No hesitation in saying we would stay here again.

Dock Holiday Has It All!

We had a wonderful vacation at this property! It met all of our needs for the perfect stay on the NC coast: our dogs were welcome; canal front property with dock for kayak and paddle board activities; great beach access via private parking lot with ramp to beach and showers for gear and dogs; and finally a nicely renovated, clean, single story house with sunroom, open floor plan, and deck, that is situated in a lovely, quiet, neighborhood with shade trees. Also, very convenient to restaurants and shopping.

Relaxing, cute and convenient

My mom, my husband, and our three kids (ages 8, 6 and 3) enjoyed a wonderful and relaxing week at Dock Holiday. The owner was very responsive, the house was in a cute and quite neighborhood, and we loved drinking our coffee while watching fish jump in the canal every morning. We really appreciated having access to the beach across the main road, and also took the opportunity to travel to nearby destinations like Beaufort, Harkers Island, and Cape Lookout. Highly recommend renting UTVs and riding around the cape! All in all, this was a wonderful place for us to unplug and recharge.
