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 appreciate the roomy 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 bags 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).

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 fashionable eateries including Jimmy's Seafood Buffet and Shipwreck's Taphouse & Grille.

Booking the best vacation rental experience:

Get the most from your rental home budget:

• In the Kitty Hawk area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Summer months are high season in the Kitty Hawk area. To find the largest vacation home within your budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Kitty Hawk restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kitty Hawk vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Kitty Hawk area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines have discounts for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Begin by choosing potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Dogs OK has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before you book your rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• If there's a particular Kitty Hawk attraction you love, search for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

Advice for a terrific stay:

• Add the property manager's phone number to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would at home.
• At Check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent time? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
