Dear Vacationers,
In just one week – Getaway Place will kick off its 2010 season! We’ve made a few changes to our home for the 2010 season and we’d like to take this opportunity to tell you about them. The largest change was our transition to the Twiddy program late last year. We hope your experiences with Twiddy thus far have been enjoyable and informative — if you have any remaining questions/concerns regarding our transition to Twiddy, please contact us. Other changes we’ve made for the 2010 season include:
- Bed/bath linens included in the price of your rental. Bath mats are also included.
- Keyless entry on the bottom floor — no need to carry keys around! Twiddy will send you a unique key code just prior to your vacation.
- A new gas grill for your cooking pleasure
- A new easy to use all in one remote for our third floor sound system
There are two items you should familiarize yourself with before heading to Corolla:
- Beach driving – The closest area for beach driving is the northern unpaved portion of NC12 about 5 miles north of Getaway Place. All standard “rules of the road” — including open container regulations — apply when driving on the unpaved extension. Remember to engage your 4×4 system prior to exiting the paved area (clearly marked.) For maximum comfort and enjoyment, Twiddy recommends that you lower your tire pressure to 18-20 psi. Visit Twiddy’s beach driving web page for more information.
- Fishing – The state of NC enacted new fishing regulations in 2007. A fishing license is required for those wishing to fish in the many coastal water areas of the Outer Banks. A 10 day license can be purchased for $10 ($5 for NC residents). For more information on fishing requirements, visit Twiddy’s fishing faq. A license can be purchased online at http://www.ncwildlife.org or by calling 888-248-6834.
We hope you enjoy your stay at Getaway Place. If there is anything we can do to make your stay more enjoyable please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Your Homeowners,
Bracey & Scibelli Families
