Subject: Hatteras
or Duck/Corolla?
Planning a vacation to OBX and am
trying to decide between Hatteras,
Avon area or Duck/Corolla, with oceanfront
rental in either location. From what
I understand Duck/Corolla is newer
and more residential and rentals seem
to be more costly. Hatteras area appears
to be less populated, and rentals
less costly. I'm trying to determine
the benefits or drawbacks to each
area. A couple of specific questions
I have are:
How long is drive to each area once
you get over bridge? Are there enough
'large' grocery
stores; video rentals and restuarants
in each area? Is the beach area different
in either area or access to beach
from the homes (in things read on
Hatteras rental descriptions don't
mention 'private boardwalk to beach')?
Any and all information would be appreciated.
Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Subject: Great
stay in Avon
Just wanted to say our family vacationed
in Avon last week and had a wonderful
time. I had checked the message board
many times for info before our trip.
I found all info both helpful and
correct. We booked through Hatteras
Realty and had great service. With
kids we didn't venture far from the
pool or beach. Shopped at Food Lion
and smaller grocery retailers and
found prices to be ok. Gas prices
seemed to also be average. All in
all we thought it was a beautiful
place for a family vacation. Thanks
for all the helpful info. We are already
planning a trip next year. Read
