The Cabin is located in Kill Devil Hills, in the Outer Banks. We fell in appreciate with KDH for its hometown feel, as well as its simple access to both the ocean and the bay. Our location affords us the luxury of the Bay Drive walking & cycling path, the Bay Drive boat launch, as well as numerous access points to the ocean beach access, with the closest access points at 1st Street, Prospect Ave, and 3rd Street Public Beach Access.

✓ 1st Street Beach Access (Parking Lot) (0.9 Miles)
✓ Prospect Ave Beach Access (Parking Lot & Public Bathroom) (1.5 Miles)
✓ 3rd Street Beach Access (No Parking) (1.5 Miles)
✓ Avalon Pier & Beach Access (Bar, Arcade, Fishing & Beach) (2.0 Miles)
✓ 5th Street Beach Access (Parking Lot) (1.6 Miles)
✓ Hayman Blvd. Beach Access (Parking Lot) (2.3 Miles)
✓ Bay Drive Walking & Biking Path (0.1 Miles - Pick Up on the corner of 1st & Canal)
✓ Avalon Beach Boat Ramp on Bay Drive (1.0 Miles)
✓ Jockey's Ridge State Park (6.0 Miles)
✓ Wright Brothers National Memorial (1.6 Miles)
✓ RC/ Kill Devil Hills Movie Theatre (1.3 Miles)
✓ First Flight Adventure Park (9.5 Miles)
✓ Sandy Run Park (5.4 Miles)
✓ Dowdy Park (4.9 Miles)
✓ Roanoke Island Festival Park (15.8 Miles)
✓ Fort Raleigh National Historic Site (18.2 Miles)
✓ North Carolina Aquarium on Roanoke Island (18.6 Miles)
✓ Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge (25.0 Miles)

Getting to the beach from the Cabin is painless, and we appreciate that we are located near three easy access points: 1st Street, Prospect Ave, and 3rd Street Public Beach Access. We are afforded a "Stop Light" intersection on 1st - during the busier times of the year this is a humongous positive in the OBX because those access points have a stop light with a crosswalk to cross N Croatan which can be busy during peak times.

Kitty Hawk Bay is due Northwest from our Cabin. We highly recommend you head down that way to the Bay Ave Walking/Biking trail for sunsets at nighttime, but also at anytime during the day because the Bay Drive trail runs along the bay for multiple miles in each direction. You can use this for walking, running, cycling. It also leads to the Avalon Beach Kitty Hawk Bay Boat Launch where you can launch boats, jetskis, canoes, kayaks, etc. Additionally, if you take the trail South, you can actually walk or ride bicycles to the Wright Brother's Memorial from the back way along 1st Street.

The garage has a secondary refrigerator for guest use. It is also equipped with at least 6 bicycles - sometimes up to 10 for guest use. Also in the garage are some lawn games including corn hole and bocce.
STRICT NO SMOKING & NO PET POLICY - If you are found to be smoking within the home or bring a pet, there will be $500 fine.

This is a family home - we use it to vacation and visit family in the OBX. Please kindly treat it like it is your own, with respect. We really enjoy it.

If you are using the yard and it's amenities during your stay, please make sure to leave it the way you found it when you arrived.

Booking the best rental home experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Kill Devil Hills. To book the largest rental home for your budget, we highly recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Kill Devil Hills restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Kill Devil Hills vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Kill Devil Hills visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines contain discounts for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning and picking your prefectvacation home:

• Choose your dates and max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. The Cabin - Unique OBX Stay, Huge Yard! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Kill Devil Hills rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before booking the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to establish what is suitable for your group.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• If there's a particular Kill Devil Hills attraction you are crazy about, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let thieves ruin your holiday.
• Note any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a fantastic resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host isn't available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
