Planning a migration to the Outer Banks? Lead your flock to Swallow's Nest, a freshly refreshed oceanside home in Kitty Hawk located just two tons back from the shining Atlantic Ocean. Getting to the beach will be a breeze using the Starfish Lane public access, just 450 feet from the home.

After a day of sun, sand and surf, come home and admire the ocean vistas from both the rooftop deck and top-level great room. An open-concept layout encourages quality time spent together even when preparing meals in the kitchen. The chef in the family will savor the cavernous layout, quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances. Serve dinner at the sizable dining table with seating for ten, or al fresco at the picnic table on the ocean-facing covered deck. Practical and beach-friendly LVP floor runs throughout this dog-friendly home, ideal for sandy feet and paws returning from the beach. Check-in and check-out will be a breeze using the cargo lift to send suitcases and groceries to and from the upper levels. Two electric fireplaces are available year round with or without heat (please unplug when not in use).

Four bedrooms and three full baths will comfortably accommodate family and friends, and a den on the mid-level can be used as a second living area or media room. It leads out to a covered deck with bubbly hot tub where you can take a calming soak while appreciating the invigorating coastal breeze. The ground level rec room is furnished with a pool table for around-the-clock indoor entertainment.

Located in Milepost 3.5 in Kitty Hawk, Swallow's Nest is within walking distance to multiple trendy eateries including Jimmy's Seafood Buffet and Shipwreck's Taphouse & Grille.

How to book the best Kitty Hawk rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• To find the best rental home within your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at Kitty Hawk restaurants, tours, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Kitty Hawk vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Booking your rental home 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for 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 and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides have discounts for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Filter your rental search:

• Select your vacation dates and max budget.
• Hot Tub
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible online. If they are not listed, email the host before booking your rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to work out what configuration is right for your vacation group.
• If there's a particular Kitty Hawk destination you crave, look for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or costs may be applied to your contract.

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many issues.
• Be respectful. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to propel more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best rental home. 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 reasonably to solve it.
