We want to give you a preview of our beach home located just north of Duck, North Carolina. We're excited that you're thinking about renting the place, and we hope you'll have a great visit to the Outer Banks!

Our cute little place is soundfront. There's a bench swing in the tree behind the home where you can swing by the water's edge, and there is a set of stairs that lead from the back yard down into the water. The beach is a short walk away on the other side of the island - it's a 5 min. walk. There's a wide, paved bicycle path that passes in front of our place and leads into the little town of Duck, about two miles away.

The home has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms connected by a jack-and-jill bathroom. One of the bedrooms has two twin beds, and the other bedroom has a queen size bed and a sitting area with a TV and dvd player. There is also a balcony that is only accessible from the enormous upstairs bedroom. There is also a master bedroom on the main level.

On the main level, there is a great room. There is a dining table that seats six, and there is an island with seating for two between the kitchen and the dining area. In the living area, there is a adore seat, a couch, and a chair in addition to a T.V. and dvd player. There is also a non-working fireplace for ambiance in cooler months. There is also a master bedroom and bathroom on the main level.

There are three sliding glass doors that lead out from the great room onto the deck that wraps around two sides of the home. The deck faces the Currituck Sound, so you can see the sun set over the water each evening. There is also an additional extension to the deck that holds a hot tub.

A door leads from the kitchen out to a screened in porch where you can savor outdoor dining, and the porch exits to the deck. Under the home, there is a laundry room and an enclosed outdoor shower. There is also space to park under the home if you want.

The kitchen is entirely supplied with nearly any dish or cooking equipment you might need. We leave some things in the refrigerator and freezer empty, such as condiments. You'll find that there is a cabinet with some oil and spices, and there may be another shelf with pantry items that we leave at the home. You are welcome to use anything you find in the refrigerator or cabinets; we'll just ask that you replace anything that you use up. This is atypical with beach home units, but this way you don't have to remember to bring your own salt shaker, and we don't have to clean out every speck of evidence that we spend time here, too.

We also have an additional closet with a lock on in the master bedroom on the main floor where we our clothes and toys for our visits. Nothing interesting really, just our personal stuff. We have numerous board games and puzzles that are available for you to use, and you're welcome to use any of the beach toys and chairs in the storage room. There are two kayaks and a surfboard on the rack under the deck; you are welcome to use those. Please don't attempt to use the sailboats unless you are an experienced sailor and have checked with us ahead of time about using them.

One of the best things about the location of our home is experiencing sunset over the Currituck Sound! We hope you have a great vacation!

Tricks and tips to get the best vacation property experience:

When to visit Kitty Hawk & When to reserve a Kitty Hawk rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking your vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our favorite way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties.
• In the Kitty Hawk area, The earlier your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Kitty Hawk area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain offers and deals for local tours and attractions.

Make a plan and pick the rightrental:

• Start by choosing the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Spring is great at the beach! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Kitty Hawk rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible online. If not, contact the host before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• Is your group looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• During arrival, make note of any issues with the property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• At departure, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
