Great little beach cottage!

We stayed here while our home was undergoing some repairs and absolutely loved this place! It was perfect for our older dog, who explored the huge fenced in backyard and got to romp daily on the great beaches! We loved being able to easily walk to the beach and the walking paths and trails throughout Chickhauk were ideal! The hosts were so accommodating to our needs and super responsive. I would recommend this property to anyone who loves a cozy beach cottage experience.

Puppers Beach Getaway!

We had a wonderful stay at this dog-friendly beach house! It was such a treat to find a place that welcomed our pups and had so many thoughtful amenities—kitchen, beach gear, games, books, washer/dryer and even a dog bowls. The location was perfect, and we spent hours enjoying the outdoor space and nearby beach, plenty of wonderful food options nearby, we LOVED Barefoot Bernie’s and Southern Shores Pizza and Deli. The only downside was the beds—they were a bit uncomfortable and could use an upgrade. But overall, the experience was fantastic, and we’d absolutely come back (especially if the beds get a refresh!).Highly recommend for anyone traveling with pets and looking for a relaxing getaway! We can’t wait to come back and visit again

Comfortable, clean, conveniently located

We enjoyed our stay in this charming pet-friendly house. The house is well-furnished and clean. The setup of the house was very comfortable for everyone and it was well-stocked with bedding, towels, kitchen supplies, and beach items. The multi-gate system for the deck and lawn gave us great peace of mind for our dogs. The hosts were very helpful and communicative with us. Thank you for a great stay!

Respite in OBX

Stayed at this property for a week with my senior mom. It was everything I hoped for! Arrived to a spotless home. Spacious and comfortable with a well-appointed kitchen. Loved cooking dinner each evening and spending time in the living room just 'hanging out' with mom.The outdoor area is ideal for dog owners! I never had to fear my two hyper pups would get loose with the enclosed back yard and the gate setup.Dual heating zones kept the home toasty warm for my mom, water for showers was quite hot which was wonderful.Owners were responsive to any questions I had and the whole process of checking in and out was painless.Very grateful to have found this gem in the Southern Shores.

Lovely stay close to the beach

We had a truly lovely time in Southern Shores at this property. The area/ neighborhood felt very safe and peaceful, and had all the amenities we needed - perfect for a stay where we just wanted to go screenless, cook, and walk to the beach. Our dogs loved sunbathing on the deck and with the multiple gates and fenced backyard, we never worried about them escaping and getting lost! Location is very convenient with no essential service less than 5 mins drive. Thank you so much for hosting us!

Love this property!!

We've stayed here a couple of times - it's definitely our go-to spot when staying in OBX. You'll enjoy a FULLY appointed kitchen; CLOSE and EASY walk to the beach; QUIET neighborhood for walking and biking; wonderful LARGE backyard for your dog(s); and excellent COMMUNICATION with both owners. It's just what we're looking for in a get-away stay. Looking forward to coming back again soon!

Great place to stay

This was just what we were looking for. In a quiet neighborhood but only a short 5 min walk to the beach. Very convenient to both ends of OBX, a bike-friendly area, and superbly equipped. The entire back yard is fenced which is a big plus when vacationing with dogs. The house was super clean. We would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Drew and Sarah Lloyd

Host profile image
We lived in Kitty Hawk for three years, but our favorite place to come back to vacation was the Southern Shores/Chicahauk area. We thought this house would be the perfect place to share with our family, friends, and guests.

Why they chose this property

We love Chicahauk because of the quiet neighborhoods, low traffic roads, walking paths, and less crowded beaches, all convenient to restaurants, shopping, and entertainment.

What makes this property unique

Relax and enjoy the comforts of our home. We have tried to provide you with everything needed for a relaxing vacation, including beach chairs, beach towels, boogie boards, bocce ball set, ladder ball, cooler bags, a kayak, and more. Active duty military, veterans and first responders receive a discount.
