Outdoor Shower:
Most of our guests favorite place to shower is outside in the vintage masonry enclosed outdoor shower. This enclosure is very private and comes with a invigorating "rain shower" head for those hot summer beach days. In the winter months our guests can savor the warmth of the modest wood burning stove that makes this time of year to visit more special!

Rental property booking tips:

Getting the best value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Kill Devil Hills. Reserve your vacation in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Kill Devil Hills area travel guide magazines which include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Kill Devil Hills area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your dates, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Renovated & Clean 'Original' OBX Bungalow, Direct Beach & Pier Access + EZ Cart has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the host before reserving the property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish which bed configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• If there's a specific Kill Devil Hills destination you simply love, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• Are you bringing the family pet? 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 agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or applied to your agreement.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the property manager's information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon arrival, note any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your peaceful home life. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. 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.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
