Classic Oceanfront Cottage
Don't miss this rare opportunity to stay in a classic Kitty Hawk bungalow. Step into history—back into a much simpler time when the amazing ocean vistas were your best form of entertainment. You'll savor the modern amenities of this vintage home and you'll adore being able to walk out onto the beach anytime you want.

Downstairs, there is plenty of parking space in the driveway along with 2 carports for covered parking. An outdoor shower makes it simple to rinse the sand off after a long day of playing on the beach. Enter the home through the covered porch on the first level. A comfortable living area is the ideal place to gather around with your family and plan out your day. A entirely outfitted kitchen offers everything you need to prepare a delicious meal and the dining table makes a great spot for family dinners. To really embrace the classic bungalow experience, step outside on your oceanfront covered deck and spend the day soaking in that ocean breeze.

When it's time to retire for the evening, choose between one of four calming bedrooms. Downstairs, there are two bedrooms each featuring a cozy Queen bed. Upstairs, you'll find two rooms with Queen Beds and a Loft with 2 Twin Beds to provide plenty of sleeping options for the whole family! All bedrooms have access to a full bathroom on the first level.

Surrounded by Conveniences and Attractions
Located along the striking dunes, Gardner's Hut is located near fun, local attractions, dining options, and shopping centers. Just steps away are two of Kitty Hawk's best eateries—Ocean Boulevard Bistro and Martini Bar (where you can appreciate a delicious seafood dinner) and Art's Place (the ideal location to grab a fast burger and cool drink on a hot summer day). For a fun family outing, challenge yourself at OBXscape Rooms in Southern Shores, bring on the competition at Turf's Up indoor sports arena in Kitty Hawk, or enjoy a relaxing game of putt-putt at Heaven Golf & Arcade. Take a day trip up to Corolla to see the wild Mustangs roam the beach or visit Hatteras Island to the South to see historic sites like the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Chicamacomico Lifesaving Station and the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum. Whether you stay in Kitty Hawk or discover everything the Outer Banks has to offer, you'll always appreciate coming back home to Gardner's Hut at the end of the day!

Vacation rental tips and tricks:

Get the best value:

• Summertime is high season in the Kitty Hawk area. Booking a rental in the Spring or Fall is a good way to save money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Kitty Hawk visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines have deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Begin by selecting your a vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group requires. 4020 Gardners Hut * Oceanfront * Walk to Dining has 4 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the host before booking the property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• If there's a particular Kitty Hawk attraction you simply love, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.

During your stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many issues.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an excellent source for finding the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a excellent time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
