We had a wonderful stay in Kitty Hawk! The location was perfect, just a short walk across the street to the ocean, which made beach days so easy and relaxing. It was also a great home base for exploring the area, with easy access to Duck, Corolla (including the wild horses), the Wright Brothers site, the Lost Colony, and the Elizabethan Gardens.The house itself was clean, comfortable, and very accommodating. The beds were cozy, and we especially enjoyed unwinding in the hot tub in the evenings after a full day out.Overall, a great place to stay, we’d definitely come back!

The host was great, very attentive, and immediately fixed a small problem we had. The house was immaculate and very classy and comfortable, with some games for families. Our teen boys loved their separate little space with the futon/raised bed, and also that downstairs room was super convenient to getting into the hot tub. Hot tub was easy to use. When we arrived (this was winter), the heat and lights were on so house was cozy and welcoming!

2024 Family Vacation

Wonderful house. Very modern, clean, and had all the amenities needed to stay. Had sheets on bed, bath and beach towels, everything needed in the kitchen, and the owners lived next door, so we met them, anx they answered any questions we had. It was one of the best houses we have rented in our years of vacation

Perfect place for our long weekend beach getaway

Loved the facilities and amenities at this house. Very close to beach access, lovely hot tub, even reached out to give us access to the pool after it was supposed to be closed. Bedding was plentiful and comfortable. Downstairs apartment was a perfect separate room. Tons of “toys” in the beach closet.

Cozy house in a great location

Our family of 7 adults enjoyed our stay in this cozy, comfortable home that was close to the beach. The kitchen was especially well stocked for cooking meals and the open layout of the home made it possible for us all to eat together even when additional family staying near by joined us. We also really appreciated the beach towels and equipment- beach chairs, wagons, umbrellas and paddle board. This house contained lots of thoughtful details and amenities.

Well Acommodated, Cozy, Clean

The home was as advertised. It was like being in someone's home, cozy. Not only did the property sleep our 8, but the owner was attentive to other details besides 'beds' to make living comfortable for many people: extra baskets and caddies in the bathrooms, bedside charging ports, plenty of floor pillows for group games and tv time, extra outlets, and plenty of seating and tables, and ample parking.Bonus: oceanview from the front windows of the home and a 2 minute walk to public beach access.

Clean, accurate listing, well stocked

This home is well cared for, not just another investment property. It was VERY CLEAN and totally stocked with beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, sand toys, body boards, beach cruisers, a paddle board, kites, frisby, beach toys and wagons to carry it all. Traveling cross country made it difficult to bring any beach toys. We appreciate this so much. This home is stocked with everything I could think of plus more. The kitchen was well stocked for easy meals at home. The beach is a short 1 minute walk down the road. The beach was clean and a great place to play all day. We used the pool and hot tub and they were both in excellent condition. The patio under the house was a nice space to hang out after a day at the beach.Owner was friendly and responsive. Highly recommend

Sibling getaway

My sister, brother, and I had a great time. The location was absolutely perfect. We loved sitting on the deck and being able to see and hear the waves. It was a very short walk to the beach access. The cottage was beautiful, and all the beds were comfortable. Being older, we especially enjoyed the reclining furniture. The interior and exterior pictures on the website were spot on. On the one day that we had rain, we had a blast playing corn hole on the lower level covered area. Communication with the owners was a breeze-they were friendly and welcoming!
