TVs and VCRs Are not furnished in cottages, except where noted in cottage descriptions. Because of our unusual circumstances, we cannot guarantee that a cottage listing a TV will actually have a working unit during your stay. Many houses provide cable service but do not provide a TV as the power surges that are frequently experienced often disable TV sets. Please be forewarned that if you bring your own TV, it's best to leave the set unplugged except during actual use. Due to the difficulties of obtaining service and replacement parts on Ocracoke Island, we cannot be held responsible for any mechanical failure of Air Conditioning, Spas, Jacuzzis or any other appliances prior to or during your rental period.
Telephones Check each house description to determine whether telephones are provided.
If a phone is provided, ask for the phone number ahead of your visit. If no phone is provided, phone messages may be picked up from the office daily - we clip messages on the door as they come in. To expedite this procedure, please be sure your family and friends know the name of your rental cottage and have our phone number. Please note that any call made anywhere off Ocracoke Island is a long distance telephone call. Prepaid phone cards with our 800 access number are the most convenient way to make long distance calls from one of our rental units.
