Avon is dubbed the “Center of Hatteras Island” owing to its shops and restaurants. Pet owners need not fear that they would have to leave their furry family member at home, as there are establishments and attractions in the area that welcome them. Cape Hatteras National Seashore allows dogs to visit all year round provided they are kept on a leash that’s 6 ft (1.8 m) long and are not brought to the designated areas for swimming. Frank & Fran’s and Kitty Hawk Kites welcome customers and their pets, so these are worth a visit if you want to try out leisurely activities enjoyed by locals and visitors alike. Dining options such as The Froggy Dog allow you to bring your pets, provided their individual rules are followed. Some accommodations welcome pets as well. Choose suitable accommodations from these pet-friendly rentals in Avon, North Carolina.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) host status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and pet-friendly rules and regulations. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 13, 2024.
