Historic Kitty Hawk Cottage w/ Ocean Vistas
As an important part of Outer Banks history, the Coastal Cottage was originally constructed to stable horses for the Kitty Hawk Lifesaving station in the late 1800's. The horses were used to transport life boats from the boat home to the water and back again when needed. In the mid 1950's, the horse stable was lifted out of the sand and turned into a home, adding two bedrooms, a kitchen, bath, and screened porch at that time. Today, the entire building has undergone major renovations, additions and modernization all while maintaining the original patina of the historic stable. This home is really unique, a ideal blend of modern historic comfort.

Still located exactly where it was originally constructed, the Coastal Cottage sits right on the West side of the beach road providing unobstructed ocean vistas that can be seen throughout the home on the middle and top level! The public beach access is just 175-feet away.

There is parking space for three cars in the driveway and covered parking beneath the carport. Unwind in the bubbly hot tub that sits shaded under the home, ideal for an afternoon soak after a long day of playing in the waves. An enclosed outdoor shower makes it painless to rinse all the sand off your feet. There are 2 points of dry-entry into the home, each up just a couple steps. Inside, a ground-level den features a enormous flat-screen TV with Full Surround Sound and Queen Sleeper Couch for additional sleeping space with access to a convenient Full Bath with a Tub/Shower Combo. Kick back with your favorite tunes by connecting your phone to the Bluetooth Speakers on the back deck.

The living area on the main level features coastal décor, plenty of natural sunlight, exposed beams and beautiful wood floors that were once part of the original stable. Parlor on the comfortable furnishings located around the Fireplace to watch a movie on the Flat-Screen TV or relax in the sitting area to appreciate your favorite book with an ocean view. The modern kitchen has plenty of prep space, new stainless-steel appliances, an island bar with seating, and comes entirely supplied for all of your cooking needs. You'll also savor a convenient half bath and mid-level entry into the home through a cavernous laundry room and rear sun deck. Adjacent to the living area is a huge screened-in porch providing a great place for alfresco dining or appreciating the ocean breeze during a summer storm. The front deck is partially covered giving you the option to lay out in the sun or relax in the shade while staring out over the ocean. There are additional Bluetooth Speakers located in the living area and on the screened porch and deck.

On the main level, you will also find two bedrooms. The first bedroom features 2 Twin beds and has access to the full-sized Bathroom in the hall with shower only. The bath is also attached to the second bedroom; a cozy Queen Master with TV. Upstairs, two more Master bedrooms are available for a great nighttime's rest—a King Master with TV and Attached Full Bath w/ Double Vanity & Shower Only and another Queen Master with TV and Attached Full Bath w/ Shower.

Kitty Hawk vacation rental home tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Kitty Hawk area. To get the largest rental within your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Kitty Hawk restaurants and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kitty Hawk vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Many management companies supply Kitty Hawk area visitors guides which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Kitty Hawk area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• Document any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if there is a dispute.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your quiet neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to propel future reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
