Located between the highways just before milepost 6, this beach getaway is wonderfully close to a host of eateries, stores, and attractions, as well as the sunny Kill Devil Hills beaches, with a public beach access located just a 5-min. walk away. With a wealth of enticing OBX sites at your fingertips, Bristow's Bungalow is a fine launching point for any coastal adventure.

On the Ground Level, appreciate plenty of parking and a cavernous Covered Carport for staying out of the sun. Cook up some fresh local seafood or your own fresh catch from the close by Avalon Fishing Pier on the Charcoal Grille for dinner. Be sure to rinse off in the Outdoor Shower before heading inside and don't forget to toss those sandy beach towels in the downstairs Washer and Dryer before going upstairs. Midweek washes are a breeze when you don't have to worry about lugging wet beach towels and sandy bathing suits upstairs for a rinse.

Cook up some snacks or a delicious dinner close by in the Kitchen with all modern appliances and seating at the Breakfast Bar for 3. The close by Dining Area offers comfortable seating for 6 and is great for appreciating a home-cooked meal in the ideal home away from home.

Just down the hall, you'll find 3 attractively decorated bedrooms with plenty of space to catch some z's in preparation for another day of appealing Outer Banks fun. Unwind in the Queen Master Suite with a Private Bathroom with a sizable Shower or the additional Queen Bedroom and Bedroom with a Double Bed that's ideal for the kids or the rest of the family. And since you're just a 5-min. walk from Avalon Pier, you'll want to get all the rest you can before enjoying a fun, impressive day of surf, sand, and sun without even having to hop in the car! Don't forget to bring your favorite canine family member, as this home also accepts one family pupper (with an additional fee).

Appreciate the Fun of Kill Devil Hills
Bristow's Bungalow is less than half a mile away from the Avalon Fishing Pier, meaning that you can make your way there in a flash for a fun day of fishing, dining, and sightseeing.

A few miles to the south, visit Jockey's Ridge State Park and climb the tallest sand dune on the Atlantic coast. Head north and stop by the Wright Brothers National Monument to learn about America's history of aviation and the first powered flight that occurred right off the local sand dunes! Afterward, swing by Lost Treasure Golf to try your luck at a fun treasure-themed mini-golf course or, if it's raining, catch the latest Blockbuster at the close by movie theater.

Vacation rental home tips and tricks:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Book your Kill Devil Hills rental property in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Kill Devil Hills visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines have discounts for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Make a plan and pick the right Kill Devil Hills vacation home:

• Choose a group leader, choose your dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. 5005 Bristow's Bungalow * 4 Min Walk to Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible online. If they are not listed, call the property manager before you book your home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or applied to your agreement.
• If there's an individual Kill Devil Hills attraction you long to visit, keep an eye out for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
