The Beach Bum

CaitlynRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Our stay was great! The house has a really nice shower in the master bedroom and everything you would need in the kitchen. The house is also located on a quiet street with great places to take nice relaxing walks on the bayside and a free public beach on the oceanside.

Charming OBX Beach Bungalow in Southern Shores

NikkiRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Loved our recent stay at this beach house! The location is great, very close to the beach but felt private and secluded (on a quiet street). We drove to the beach with all our stuff, but could have also walked. No issues with finding parking at the beach, although we were here off-season in September. The house is very comfortable and had everything we needed to relax after a day at the beach (both inside and on the large deck). We grilled, had pizza delivered and drove a short distance to Duck for dinner a few nights. Had one rainy day where we enjoyed sitting in the screened in porch listening to music and playing games. Would recommend Laurie's place to anyone who enjoys charming beach houses (no bland, new build here): full of fun decorations, a spiral staircase and lots of charming personality!

Lucky You w/ Self-Check-in & Parking

AndrewRating, 5 stars4 days ago
We loved our week at Monika's place. We visted Cape Hatteras (the lighthouse is undergoing repairs), the Wright Brothers National Memorial, Jockey's Ridge State Park (beautiful sunset) and we did daily hikes around Nags Head Wood Preserve, which is a very short walk from the house. We also had some great food and enjoyed the available bicycles.

Oceanview,private POOL,AWESOME THEATER.Family Fun!

AmyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Great place. For its size and value, it literally has a ton of great features . The theatre room is amazing, especially with having kids. Has a beach volleyball court! The arcade has thousands of games and brought me back 25 years (Pac-Man, Mario, Galaga, Street Fighter, and 1,000’s more). We went when it typically would not be considered swimming weather, however, we had the option to have the pool heated at least a day or so before arriving and it made a huge difference and allowed for my girls and I to swim in early April (and I did jump in the ocean to compare and it was a 25-30 degree difference! Lol). The owner is very quick to respond, has the instructions available prior to arrival, recommendations for food, churches, , and activities. If you don’t mind a 3-5 minute stroll to the beach, it is honestly not that far away. Walmart, Target, Grocery stores, putt putt, dunes, Wings, fishing pier, are very close by. The aquarium was a 20 min drive but was worth it. Fun experience.

Woodland Cabin Near the Sound; Unplug and Relax

ChristyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Longacres is a special place. It’s definitely rustic and my teenagers weren’t excited at first. But when it was time to go home, they didn’t want to leave. The outdoor shower and sleeping porch are amazing. My husband and I used them in all weather from the 70s to the 40s. The electric blanket kept us cozy on even the coldest nights. Staying at Longacres felt like glamping. You might have to deal with a few wasps or spiders, or you might run into some cobwebs. But the birds singing you awake every morning, the sun shining in through the tree, the wind whispering in the pines, and the blue sky over head during a shower make those bugs and cobwebs totally worth it! The location was a great jumping off point for all OBX adventures. Anne was a responsive host and quickly dealt with a minor issue we had. I hope we get to come back again sometime!

OBX Log Cabin-1 level-Canal view-Beach 1 mile-MP8

MollyRating, 5 stars6 months ago
We had a great stay at the cabin- we especially loved relaxing on the front porch and also the view of the creek from the back patio. We were a little worried since the backyard abuts an RV campground and it is also just off of a busy road but it was surprisingly very quiet. The beds are super comfortable and we found everything we needed for our stay. The central location is a short drive to many beautiful natural areas, the Wright Bros historic site, plus restaurants and stores on the main strip. The hosts are very responsive and have put a lot of love into the cabin, attentive to details that might make visitors feel welcome.

The Little Cottage (Walk to the beach!)

AnneRating, 5 stars2 days ago
We had an excellent time & stay at Penny’s! Our few days there was so relaxing & heavenly. The cottage is a gem - very comfortable, cozy, charming, clean in a quiet neighborhood and the beach right down the street. Kitchen was ample size & had all the pots, pans, utensils needed for cooking. Bathroom was very clean, beds very comfortable, living room & big deck nice for relaxing when we weren’t on the go. The cabin’s is well-built and nicely decorated with thoughtful touches everywhere. Penny left us a nice book and small welcome gift to great us. There’s a great space under house on street level that we barely used but is nice plus for hot days. Next to outdoor shower & an extra bathroom/laundry room should you need. There are 2 beach chairs & cart to lug your things to beach. Can’t say enough about the location. Just ideal! Fantastic coffee shop a minute’s walk up the street & great restaurants/shops/attractions. Penny provides great info on all! Just a great hostess! TY Penny!

Sea Spray Cottage #3

LouiseRating, 5 stars7 months ago
We had a wonderful stay at the Sea Spray Cottages! Loved the location with easy beach access across the street. The cottages are set back from the road slightly, which makes them feel private and cuts down on traffic noise from the beach road. Very clean, cute, and comfy.

Location, location, location … For a cottage at the beach that’s all you need to hear. It is the reason we came back and will again. Amy has made her wonderful cottage inside as great as the view out the windows and from the deck.

PamelaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Our visit was just what my family was looking for! We wanted a quiet, comfortable and clean place to stay so we could relax and get away from day-to-day responsibilities. The home was clean and comfortable. The nearby road was a bit noisy but the hosts had left fans that were perfect for covering the noise at night!

Lovely little cottage on the Sound side of Manteo, not quite on the water but close enough to hear the waves and feel the breeze. Immaculately clean, well appointed, and very quiet — perfect for 1-2 guests. Friendly, communicative owner.

Your guide to Kill Devil Hills

All About Kill Devil Hills

The small coastal community of Kill Devil Hills is a gateway to North Carolina’s Outer Banks region and all it has to offer. In addition to the miles of dune-studded beaches along the Atlantic Coast, the town boasts a handful of outstanding parks known for their hiking and wildlife spotting. On the outskirts of town, the shoreline is dotted with brightly colored pastel homes, providing a picturesque backdrop for the swimming, surfing, and fishing the area has to offer.

In the center of Kill Devil Hills, you’ll find memorials and museums commemorating the historical achievements of the region; most notably, this is where humans first achieved powered flight. In addition to the bars and cafes hosting live musical performances, several markets and restaurants in town highlight fresh seafood from the surrounding waters. Yellowfin tuna, striped bass and sea trout are popular catches and menu items here.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Kill Devil Hills

Seasonal temperature changes can be fairly drastic between the summer and winter months in Kill Devil Hills. However, humidity, wind, and precipitation stay relatively consistent, with only minor variations throughout the year. From May to September, the weather is warm, a great time to look for rentals in Kill Devil Hills, when the temperature is conducive to swimming, hiking, and generally enjoying nature.

Several events occur during this time, like the Fourth of July Fireworks Show, best enjoyed on the beach. There is also the National Aviation Day Celebration at the Wright Brothers National Memorial in August, where the history of aviation is celebrated along with Orville Wright’s birthday. From October to March, temperatures plunge to levels that are too cold for enjoying ocean activities. However, the brisk temperatures are pleasant for hiking in the surrounding parks and reserves.

Outer Banks Arboretum & Teaching Garden

There’s no better place to learn about the ecologies of coastal North Carolina than at the Outer Banks Arboretum & Teaching Garden. You’ll find sensory gardens, a butterfly highway, and a composting demonstration area in the beautifully manicured grounds landscaped with native plants. Take one of the several accessible walking trails throughout the complex to guide you on your exploration.

Kitty Hawk Woods Coastal Reserve

This nature reserve north of town is home to several rare habitats and ecological communities, including maritime swamp forests, freshwater wetlands, and deciduous forests. The reserve is also a hotspot for local wildlife, including leopard frogs, snapping turtles, marsh rabbits, and bobcats. Several trailheads provide access to the park, and an interlacing series of waterways allows you to explore the reserve by kayak.

This memorial is a site dedicated to the first instance of powered flight in history. In 1903, the Wright brothers made their historic flight at the very spot where this memorial now sits.
