Default Hatteras / OBX - end of April?

Dan B and I have been talking about making a trip up to Hatteras for a while.. thinking this spring might be a good time to go.

Reading up on Kiteforum.. looks like late April is as good as any to get up there and get some solid, dependable winds.

Anyone have a line on accomodations up there? I'd be cool with renting a house if we got enough folks to go.

Let me know.

-B

driving..14 hours accoring to google maps.. we will see..

booking hotel for April 30 to May 4..
going to stay around Avon .. getting a week house rental as an option but if the weather looks craptastic we can bail out with 7 day notice.. not an option for that on house rentals.

last time Dan and I booked our trip a little thing called Tropical Storm Alberto came roaring thru and tore everything up.. we stayed here and kited in the 30+ wind all week and weekend.

we are staying at the Lighthouse View Hotel... lighthouseview.com

great rates.. 7 day cancellation policy..
