NEW to the rental market, PROFESSIONAL PHOTOS COMING SOON! Located among the live oaks, the Sandy Oaks Cottage is just a short walk from the peaceful Southern Shores beaches.

If you're looking for privacy, comfort and convenient locations, the Sandy Oaks Cottage is for you!

The Sandy Oaks Cottage is elegantly (and comfortably) decorated, offering ample living space, both inside and out. It is a short (1500 feet or 500 yards) walk from the front door to the beach!

But the star of the home is the secluded and private BACKYARD OASIS. Unwind in the HOT TUB or take a dip in the POOL (complete with pool toys), without worrying about neighbors.

Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Kitty Hawk vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. To get the largest rental home within budget, we recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Kitty Hawk restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Kitty Hawk area travel guide magazines which often include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Kitty Hawk visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and choosing the bestrental:

• Start by selecting potential vacation weeks and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Spacious 5-bedroom Oasis in Southern Shores! Short walk to Beach! has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property owner before you book your rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what configuration is right for your group.
• If there's a certain Kitty Hawk destination you love, browse homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• To make sure damages are not attributed to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. Make contact with the property manager right away to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a excellent time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. 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 review.
