Picturesque Oceanside Cottage in Kitty Hawk

With one primary floor and both a Mid-Level and a Top-Level deck, this classic beach box-style home has everything you need for a exceptional, ocean-centered vacation.

At the end of a glorious day of fun in the sun and sand, rinse off under the Outdoor Shower before heading up to the main level of this adorable home where you can relax on the Mid-Level Covered Deck and listen to the sound of the waves lull you into a sense of tranquility and relaxation. Spend time with your family on the comfortable furnishings as you appreciate the salty sea air.

When it's time for some rest, make your way inside to the comfortable Living Area with plenty of cozy furnishings and a Flat Screen TV that's ideal for catching up on your shows or watching a movie with a cup of tea on a rainy day. There's also a cozy Sleeper Couch that can pop out for those days when you just need a nap or to make sure everybody has plenty of space to relax. Pass by the conveniently-located, stackable Laundry in the cubby close by on your way to the Kitchen, which has everything you need to whip some delicious local, North Carolina seafood. Savor your yummy meal at the Breakfast Bar, with seating for 4, or take it out onto one of the decks to savor a gloriously natural dining experience. Get some sleep in one of the two cozy bedrooms that make this the ideal getaway for your smaller family vacation. Get some privacy in the Bedroom with 1 Queen Bed and get the kiddos all settled into the Bedroom with the Pyramid Bunk. There's a welcoming bathroom between the bedrooms, with painless access for everybody to share.

And if you're planning to bring your four-legged friend on your next Outer Banks vacation, you're in luck! Jo's Bungalow is a dog-friendly vacation rental home that welcomes your furry family member.

Rental home booking tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental value:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring is a great way to save on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain discounts for local shops and restaurants.

Selecting the best vacation home in Kitty Hawk:

• Start by having your group select vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. 4072 Jo's Bungalow * Dog Friendly * 3 Min to Beach * Ocean Views has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available online. If not, email or call the host before booking your home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property management company about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

Tips for a wonderful stay:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents lots of issues.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• Note any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on good ratings to stimulate more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
