Historic Kitty Hawk Cottage w/ Ocean Vistas
As an important part of Outer Banks history, the Coastal Cottage was originally constructed to stable horses for the Kitty Hawk Lifesaving station in the late 1800's. The horses were used to transport life boats from the boat home to the water and back again when needed. In the mid 1950's, the horse stable was lifted out of the sand and turned into a home, adding two bedrooms, a kitchen, bath, and screened porch at that time. Today, the entire building has undergone major renovations, additions and modernization all while maintaining the original patina of the historic stable. This home is really unique, a ideal blend of modern historic comfort.

Still located exactly where it was originally constructed, the Coastal Cottage sits right on the West side of the beach road providing unobstructed ocean vistas that can be seen throughout the home on the middle and top level! The public beach access is just 175-feet away.

There is parking space for three cars in the driveway and covered parking beneath the carport. Unwind in the bubbly hot tub that sits shaded under the home, ideal for an afternoon soak after a long day of playing in the waves. An enclosed outdoor shower makes it simple to rinse all the sand off your feet. There are 2 points of dry-entry into the home, each up just a couple steps. Inside, a ground-level den features a huge flat-screen TV with Full Surround Sound and Queen Sleeper Couch for additional sleeping space with access to a convenient Full Bath with a Tub/Shower Combo. Kick back with your favorite tunes by connecting your phone to the Bluetooth Speakers on the back deck.

The living area on the main level features coastal décor, plenty of natural sunlight, exposed beams and charming wood floors that were once part of the original stable. Parlor on the comfortable furnishings located around the Fireplace to watch a movie on the Flat-Screen TV or relax in the sitting area to savor your favorite book with an ocean view. The modern kitchen has plenty of prep space, new stainless-steel appliances, an island bar with seating, and comes entirely supplied for all of your cooking needs. You'll also appreciate a convenient half bath and mid-level entry into the home through a cavernous laundry room and rear sun deck. Adjacent to the living area is a enormous screened-in porch providing a great place for alfresco dining or appreciating the ocean breeze during a summer storm. The front deck is partially covered giving you the option to lay out in the sun or relax in the shade while staring out over the ocean. There are additional Bluetooth Speakers located in the living area and on the screened porch and deck.

On the main level, you will also find two bedrooms. The first bedroom features 2 Twin beds and has access to the full-sized Bathroom in the hall with shower only. The bath is also attached to the second bedroom; a cozy Queen Master with TV. Upstairs, two more Master bedrooms are available for a great nighttime's rest—a King Master with TV and Attached Full Bath w/ Double Vanity & Shower Only and another Queen Master with TV and Attached Full Bath w/ Shower.

Tips to get the perfect rental experience:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• To get the best value, try changing your family's Kitty Hawk vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kitty Hawk vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked early. Reserving your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Kitty Hawk area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning and choosing the right Kitty Hawk rental home:

• Begin by choosing trip dates and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration you need. 4115 Coastal Cottage * 1 Min Walk to Beach has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before booking the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish what is best for your group.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• 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. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or costs may be applied to your invoice.

Know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• To make sure no damages are linked to your stay, record any problem areas during check in. Call the property manager immediately to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good reviews to propel new bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
