Itinerary
6:00 AM
Enjoy your coffee on the second-floor screened-in porch overlooking the backyard canal. It’s common to see a grey heron or two hunting along the shoreline at this hour, while fish occasionally jump in the water. On some mornings, you might even catch the horses making their rounds through the backyard or across the canal. It’s always worth checking the front yard for them while your coffee is brewing.
6:30–7:00 AM
Take a walk down to the dock and check the crab pots (four are tied off to the dock). In mid to late summer, you can often find 2–3 beautiful blue crabs per pot every other day.
7:00 AM
Catch up on the news and emails in the theater lobby or on the outdoor TV by the pool and spa. The theater lobby and theater have a separate entrance from the main house, so you can enjoy your morning without disturbing any late sleepers.
7:30–8:00 AM
Enjoy the hydrotherapy spa, then cool off in the swimming pool—perfect for relaxing, stretching, and easing into the day.
8:30–9:00 AM
Shower and get ready for a day at the beach.
9:00–10:00 AM
Take a scenic 3-mile walk to the beach shoreline, continue up to the next access point, and loop back home.
11:00 AM–1:00 PM
Brunch at LOL—a perfect time to gather with friends and family before heading out to the beach. Spend the afternoon by the ocean, typically staying until the sun sets over the dunes.
6:00 PM
Enjoy the last hours of daylight back at LOL—relax by the pool, unwind in the shade, or fish off the dock.
7:00–8:00 PM
Fire up the BBQ, steam some fresh blue crabs, and enjoy dinner on the spacious 1,000+ sq. ft. elevated covered deck beneath the house, complete with 10-foot ceilings and ceiling fans.
8:00 PM & Beyond
Head up to the third-floor lounge and arcade to entertain guests, featuring an 8-foot billiards table—perfect for a little friendly competition.
A One-of-a-Kind Beach Experience You’ll Never Forget
Looking for a beach vacation your family will talk about for years to come? Welcome to Carova, North Carolina—where adventure meets total escape. Spend your days cruising the sand in your ATV, exploring untouched beaches, and spotting wild horses, deer, and coastal wildlife in their natural habitat. Start your mornings with sunrise over the Atlantic, and end your evenings with breathtaking sunsets over the Currituck Sound, followed by peaceful reflections across the backyard canal. Cap it all off by fishing off the dock as the final light of the day fades.
Once you leave the developed Corolla area and drive onto the beach, you enter nearly 22 miles of protected land and wetlands. About 8 miles up the shoreline sits your private retreat, Live Oak Landing (LOL)—placing you right in the heart of this untouched stretch of coastline. There are no roads, no traffic lights, and no commercial distractions—just nature, peace, and freedom. Designed for this unique setting, LOL delivers the perfect balance of remote living and modern comfort—true coastal “roughing it,” redefined with luxury.
Designed for Space, Comfort & Connection
Most rental homes are built to maximize occupancy—more bedrooms, more beds, more people. At nearly 4,500 square feet, Live Oak Landing (LOL) takes a different approach. With a sleeping capacity of just 12, this home was intentionally designed with quality over quantity in mind. Instead of cramming in extra rooms, LOL offers open space, comfort, and thoughtful design—creating the perfect environment for relaxing, entertaining, and truly enjoying your time together.
Built for gathering, LOL gives your family and guests room to spread out and connect without feeling crowded. While we offer 7-day rentals, nearby homes provide flexible options for additional guests who may only stay a few days or prefer their own space. It’s the ideal balance—spend your days together enjoying everything the property has to offer, then unwind with the privacy and comfort everyone appreciates.
Experience a property built on a decade of coastal tradition. Completed in late 2024 after a meticulous four-year build, Liveoak Landing was designed for those who appreciate the finer details of beach living. From its origins as a cherished weekend escape for our Virginia Beach-based family to its debut as a luxury rental in 2025, “LOL” represents the pinnacle of Carova hospitality. Whether you’re enjoying the surf or lounging poolside, we invite you to make our sanctuary your own.
