About this property

Centrally located to the beach life, this remodeled, dog-friendly 3 BR/2BA home is 3 minutes from the beach and less than 500 yards from spectacular sunsets over the Albemarle Sound. This home was remodeled with comfort in mind! From the master bath with walk-in tile shower to hardwood floors and a gourmet kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, it will be easy to make this your home away from home.

NOTE: Guests will stay on the SECOND FLOOR of the home. There is a small family-occupied apartment on the ground level, but there is NO SHARED ACCESS between the two spaces.

As our guest, you will have full access to all the OBX YMCA has to offer at no additional cost (Outdoor pool in season). We have a parking pass to a private oceanfront parking lot just 3 minutes from the house. Parking is on a first-come basis. A full-size washer/dryer is available for our guests to use during their stay. All linens are provided! The kitchen is stocked with basic oils and spices.

The location of our home could not be more convenient! Located centrally in Kill Devil Hills, restaurants, piers, national parks, movie theatres, grocery stores, and shopping are just a short drive or casual bike ride away. A boat ramp provides access to the Sound and is located within a mile of the house.

At the end of the quiet, tree-lined street is a multi-use path that meanders along the sound. It is perfect for a bike ride, run or leisurely stroll to see spectacular sunsets over Albemarle Sound. This makes this pet-friendly home the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the beauty of the Outer Banks.

As advertised...

Tom's place was spotless and well appointed. They've paid attention to details--labels on light switches, "in case you forgot" toiletries, nightlights, quality linens, a well stocked kitchen, beach chairs, dog toys and treats, and more--which made staying there a sincere pleasure. We wanted for nothing. The location was minutes from the beach, but quiet, residential, and peaceful. We would gladly stay there again.

Christmas getaway - property was amazing!

Booked this say for Christmas vacation at the beach for the my mother and a friend and her mother. The house was great. The owners went WAY above and beyond for all the accommodations. House looks newly remodeled. All of the decorations and furniture were very nice. All the switches are labeled. Lockbox outside for easy check-in. We were all impressed in the binder left with recommendations for food and things to do. There were YMCA gym passes, a parking permit for Avalon pier thats straight across on the beach side. They even put out a dog crate with bowls in case we needed when I told we were bringing a dog!!! The host were easy to communicate with and made sure everything was good for our stay. This rental is upstairs so have to use stairs to get up to the house. There is great balcony seating wrapping around the house. A nice seating area with picnic tables in the side yard and even a small fenced area for dogs to use! Driveway parking for 3 cars. I believe this is a shared duplex for a renter downstairs. Overall was extremely impressed with this home and all the host have done for their guest! Would definitely recommend this home!!! Thank you so much Tom & Linda!

Enjoyable Stay in Kill Devil Hills

We stayed at the house for a week. The communication with the hosts was easy and they were very warm and inviting. The house was nicely updated and was stocked with many amenities to make the vacation easy. Towels, bikes, beach chairs, beach pass to park at the beach were all available for your use.The house was dog friendly with dog bowls, a crate, and dog toys. The neighborhood was quiet and neighbors were friendly. I would recommend this house to anyone looking to visit Kill Devil Hills.

Everything was perfect!

Communication with the property manager from before booking throughout our stay was excellent. They are determined to make your stay the best possible. Everything that's provided greatly lessened our travel load. The location is excellent. You can get to the bayside or beachside in minutes and theres an abundance of restaurants, shops, and things to do. They also made it super easy for us to bring our dog. They provided a crate, toys, poop bags, etc. The fenced backyard and gate on the deck also made having our dog with us super easy. You can tell the property has had some recent renovations. All of which have been done nicely. This property is exactly how it's listed but even better when you get there.

OBX-ellent!

This welcoming, comfortable property is a great spot to stay when visiting the Outer Banks. What really makes it special—aside from its cleanliness, good location, and nice aesthetics, all of which apply, and then some—are the thoughtful touches that the owners have put in place. Just a few examples include: a welcome basket for guests, another basket full of things guests may have forgotten, tons of beach-related accoutrements, YMCA passes and an Avalon Beach parking/access pass, lots of toys and treats for pups, and more…even chilled glasses for frosty beverages! It was a wonderful home away from home for our week!

Loved this place!

Loved it here! The house was so comfy and inviting, pretty spacious and had all the amenities you could also for. The owners presented us with a gift basket with goodies and they even had a full finder of information about the house and the area! Owners were easy and fast to communicate with as well! Easily would stay here again 5/5 ⭐

August Beach Week

We had a fantastic beach vacation! The house was very clean and had so many nice touches, including bikes, boogie boards, YMCA passes, and a parking pass for a beach access. The owners are local and had let us know that we could call with any problems. Of course we never had any issues, but it was nice to know they were available should something have happened. This is a dog-friendly rental so we were happy we could bring our dogs. There is a sound-side trail that was perfect for morning and evening walks. We have absolutely no complaints about this lovely rental and hope to return next year:)
