The Studio is a really unique and gorgeous property, both inside and out. Located in the heart of the village within walking distance to all the harbor front attractions, The Studio is tucked away, shady and private. The multi level patio is located among live oaks and cedar trees. After a total remodel in 2022, the interior space features an refreshed look that is more roomy, more functional and more inviting than ever! The Studio is an adult only, pet complimentary, smoke complimentary space. Smoking is allowed outside.


This building was constructed in 1993 and used for 15 years as a working art studio. It is set back off the road, amidst giant live oak and cedar trees, and sits alongside my home, one of the islands designated historic homes. The two buildings are joined by an open breezeway behind the main gate, but when guests are in residence in the studio, we both have separate entrances on opposite sides of the property. The Studio provides all the amenities of home in a private, peaceful and tree shaded setting, with tons of attention to detail. I have tried to make the Studio somewhere I would want to stay, well cared for with tons of personality.

You enter through a completely enclosed multi leveled courtyard space complete with artwork, jasmine, hot/cold out door shower and grille. There are chairs for calming and a dining table for mealtime. Your parking is right outside the gate. Inside, the studio is colorful, unique and furnished for your complete comfort with one queen bed downstairs, a double bed in the upstairs loft space, couch, flat screen TV, completely equipped kitchen and bath with tub and shower. There is a desk and office chair ideal for working while away! The Studio provides full linen service.

This is the ideal charming and private hideaway for two. The Studio is located within walking distance of the Coffee Company, Zillie's, the harbor front and all downtown stores and eateries. We ask that you do not store or charge electric bicycles on the property.

All Studio guests are strongly urged to buy cancellation insurance through Vacation Rental By Owner. We are an island 30 miles off the coast. Things happen, to people and to the island. The ferry service to the island can be affected at any time in unpredictable ways restricting access to the island. And, we have hurricanes from June through October. Please protect yourselves.

This property is offered by Premier Partner, Debbie Wells, who also manages three other Vacation Rental By Owner properties: Dicie's House on Howard Street #1899844, SoundHouse #2203510 and CanalHouse #2760936.

Our top Ocracoke rental property booking tips:

Cost saving strategies:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Booking in the Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Ocracoke visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines contain discounts for local tours and attractions.

Filter your rental search:

• Begin by selecting a vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Beautiful, Historic and Private Retreat for Couples-limit 2 people has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible on booking websites. If not, email or call the host before reserving the property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You'll need to work out what configuration is right for your vacation family.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or might be applied to your contract.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

More considerations:

• Add the host's contact information to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of issues.
• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your visit, note any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the property manager right away to report any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peaceful home life. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
