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.

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. Appreciate 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 simple access for everybody to share.

Finding the best rental experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To get the best value, try changing your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Kitty Hawk visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides contain money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Select a group leader, choose your trip dates, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. 4072 Jo's Bungalow * Dog Friendly * 3 Min to Beach * Ocean Views has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible on booking pages. If not, reach out to the host before you reserve the home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to work out what is best for your vacation group.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or costs applied to your invoice.
• If there's a particular Kitty Hawk attraction you crave, keep an eye out for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent lots of problems.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your visit, record any problem areas upon your arrival. Call the property manager right away to record any damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peace. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all of your things. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on good reviews to drive future reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
