Plan your OBX trip - prime Kill Devil Hills location!

Launch your vacation from this centrally-located cottage in the heart of OBX, located just south of Mile Post 9 in Kill Devil Hills! You will enjoy the comforts of home and then some all within a 2 minute drive or 10 minute walk to beach access and tons of restaurants for the foodie in you!

There are 3 bedrooms (one king room, one queen room and a double twin bunk room), 2 full baths, a covered front porch with bistro table and chairs, and a downstairs ping pong table and laundry area. The large driveway has parking for four vehicles and is long enough for just about any boat and trailer. You will enjoy all the comforts of home and then some, including high-speed internet, ample seating in living and dining rooms, central AC/heat, ceiling fans, washer and dryer, full kitchen with dishwasher and microwave, and the necessary full pot/K-Cup combo coffee maker.

Location-wise, it doesn't get much better! It's walking distance to loads of restaurants to include Mama Kwans (a locals favorite!), Woo Casa, Food Dudes, Kill Devil Grill, JKs, 3 Tequilas, Pigmans BBQ, Daredevil Pizza, Millers, American Pie, Stack Em High Pancakes, Country Deli, and Booty Treats. Swells'a Brewing, just opened less than a mile from the house & it perfectly accommodates both adults and kids.

Much more shopping is a short drive away, including Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Publix, Walgreens, and tons of specialty beach shops. Like to pack heavy for the beach? There are public beach accesses with parking lots at both Martin and Atlantic Streets (5 minute walk or just a 2 minute drive!). Access to The Nature Conservancy's Nags Head Woods Preserve is just a few streets away and Jockeys Ridge State Park + the Wright Brothers Memorial are just a short car or bike ride away (we highly recommend all three!). Want to interact with some awesome sea turtles? The NC Aquarium on Roanoke Island is just 25 minutes away! There are also numerous water sports rental businesses within a short drive with jet skis, kayaks, boats, and other fun water toys. Is fishing your thing? Both the Nags Head & Oregon Inlet Fishing Centers are just a short trek to the south.

To keep our rates low, we do not provide linens but if you cannot bring yours, we will be happy to provide a list of nearby businesses that rent linens and other vacation needs (beach chairs, baby needs, etc.) by the week.

We have the following extra items for your enjoyment around the cottage and at the beach: 4-burner gas grill with propane provided and bicycles.

*** Dog lovers are welcome!!! Up to two dogs allowed but must be kennel (crate) kept if left home alone. One large and one medium kennel provided - if you bring two large dogs you will need to bring a 2nd large kennel. The back yard is fenced to give your dog (or your kids!) a safe place to play. ***

What a lovely home to stay in for our family of 4! We didn’t bring the dog this time but easily could have if needed to. We absolutely loved having our own master bath, outside eating area on the deck, and a backyard with back shower! Couldn’t recommend highly enough!

Amazing place to stay to experience the wonderful attractions of Kill Devil Hills and Outter Banks

This property is an amazing place to stay. The location is a very short commute to anything we wanted to see, do and eat. My wife, my dogs and myself thoroughly enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere of the neighborhood when we wanted to wind down. The neighbors are very friendly as well. I will absolutely be returning to this property for another amazing vacation!!!

We really enjoyed our stay here! We keep trying different types of properties, this one with a fenced in yard for our dogs, which is a rare find. It worked out great! The house was really nice, clean and had everything we needed. Ginny was extremely responsive as well. I would definitely recommend this property and would stay here again. Thanks for letting us stay in your home!

Perfect vacation home, 4 bikes and a fun req room in the garage. Fantastic backyard for my pup and a crate for bedtime. The upstairs is fantastic and the bedrooms were perfect. Highly enjoyed our stay (the neighbors are super nice too)! We will book this home again.

This is our 4th summer traveling to the OBX with our dogs and Ginny's home did not disappoint! She was incredibly friendly and communicative as well as flexible when we requested a change in dates. The house was very clean and accurately described in the listing as well as photos. The front deck was lovely to hang out on and very conveniently located off the main living space to allow our dogs to survey the neighborhood when we were home. The kitchen was well stocked to allow us to cook a lot of our meals and save some money. We highly recommend staying here! The only thing to note if you are traveling with dogs is that the folks living on either side and behind all have dogs as well, so if your pup is dog reactive, it might be something to consider. Our pups were all fine with it and the neighbors were friendly anytime we ran into them.

As someone who doesn’t typically vacations with their pets, this was the PERFECT rental. The fenced-in backyard was a great perk. The house was very clean and is accurate to the listing.
