Whether you appreciate lying on the beach, ocean sports, bird watching, exercising, or the sounds of nature, you can have it all here without feeling like you are in a tourist destination. The Woods Rd., where the home is located, offers painless access to both ends of Kitty Hawk Beach, but also offers simple access to all other areas within the Outer Banks. The pedestrian multi-use path runs in front of the private driveway offering an easy walk to a unique covered bridge or a great place for riding bicycles or a morning run. Wake up to the sounds of nature and have coffee on the huge deck overlooking the preserve, or savor a comfortable morning in with an abundance of natural light. The town home style offers 12 foot high ceilings throughout the second level offering a cozy but roomy feel. A full kitchen, french doors opening to a impressive full length deck, as well as a full laundry and outdoor shower on ground level round out the second floor.

IMPORTANT Note for my guests: This home is designed as a guest bungalow. The living space is 700 square feet with an additional 300 square feet of private deck space. It does not feel modest due to the high ceilings and layout, but may not be enormous enough for families with multiple kids. I have spent a lot of time in this space entertaining and I am in appreciate with it. I want you to be as well! Please feel complimentary to contact me prior to booking requests with any questions. I look forward to meeting you- Always Aloha- Dave

Tricks and tips to get the optimal Kitty Hawk rental experience:
When to book a Kitty Hawk rental home & When to go:
- Summer months are high season in the Kitty Hawk area. Book your Kitty Hawk vacation in the Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Kitty Hawk vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
- The sooner your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
- Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
- Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
- Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Kitty Hawk area visitor guides which will include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Kitty Hawk visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.
Selecting and booking a perfectrental home:
- Begin by selecting vacation dates and a spending budget.
- Note the number beds and the configuration you need. Where the Beach and Nature Collide- has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
- Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking websites. Otherwise, email the property manager before booking the vacation home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
- If there's a specific Kitty Hawk destination you long to visit, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
- Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
- If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
Considerations for your stay:
- Add the property manager's phone number to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
- To make certain damages are not attributed to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas when you arrive. Speak to the host right away to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
- Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent lots of problems.
- Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
- Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
- Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect your property!
- On check-out day, take a walk-through to confirm you have not forget anything. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean 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.
- Did your group have a wonderful time? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. 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 it a point as part of your feedback.
