On top of the ocean vistas from your crow's nest, you'll also savor a short walk (5-min./0.2-miles) to the nearest beach access on Balchen St.
There are two driveways and a carport beneath each side of the home providing plenty of parking space. A modest laundry room downstairs contains a washer and dryer. Before coming inside after a fun day of splashing in the waves, you can conveniently rinse off in the outdoor shower. Pick up a few burgers at the grocery store and throw them on the charcoal grille for an painless summer cookout!
Walk into the cavernous great room with comfortable furnishings, nautical touches and plenty of natural light shining in through the huge windows and sliding deck doors. The living area is located around a 60” Giant Screen TV/DVD making it simple for everybody to gather together for a family movie nighttime. Both beginner and experienced chefs alike will appreciate the gourmet kitchen with handsome white cabinets, black countertops, modern stainless-steel appliances, dual sinks and a wine cooler. The kitchen bar seats 3—ideal for a fast snack! When it comes time for a formal sit-down family dinner, there is additional seating in the adjoining dining area for 6-8. The dining area also features access to the sun deck with a picnic table for dining outdoors on those cool, summer evenings. For a view of the Atlantic, climb up to the Oceanview Crow's Nest with constructed-in seating.

Booking the best Kitty Hawk rental experience:
When to book a Kitty Hawk rental & When to go:
- Summer time is high season in Kitty Hawk. To get the best value, try changing your vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Kitty Hawk vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
- The earlier you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
- Some property management companies offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
- Property managers usually offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
- Many management companies supply Kitty Hawk area visitors guides that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Kitty Hawk visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.
Filter your search:
- Start by having your group decide on date ranges and a max budget.
- Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. 4084 Turtle's Nest * 4 Min Walk to Beach has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
- Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
- Visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
- Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking
- Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or costs might be applied to your agreement.
Tips for your stay:
- Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
- To make sure that damages are not linked to your family's visit, record any problem areas when you arrive. Call the rental manager right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
- Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
- Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
- Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
- Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves ruin your holiday.
- When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
- Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
- Leave a review! Property owners rely on great reviews to propel future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience find their best rental home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
