About this property

Splash in a new pool or chill at the beach but don't sit in Traffic!!

NO need to load your beach gear into the car when this Chicahauk beach cottage is a short walk to the Southern Shore beach access. Waves, sand, and marine life await for you to explore everyday. Perfectly located at the first traffic light as you head north on the beach Hwy 12 - You have now escaped all the traffic. When you need to access groceries, a fresh fish market, bagels, smoothies, ice cream, coffee shop, an ABC store, bank, pizza, or Walmart you are only 1 traffic light and 5 minutes away. You will never have to spend your vacation on OBX in your car again. Just pack your swimsuit and beach towels for fun in the sun!

Each morning you wake to decide if you will explore the beach, the island or a book by the pool. The house is equipped with beach toys, ping pong table, bikes, chairs, volley ball, and everything you need to exhaust your children and yourself. When your energy level drops relax in the large open living area. Everyone can stay connected while watching TV, cooking, playing games or puzzles, or escape for some quiet time in the side sunporch. The wireless Sonos speaker system extends onto the deck for outside grilling and dining. A brand-new heated pool awaits in the backyard for water volleyball, Marco Polo, or just floating.

The kitchen has been renovated in 2017 with new appliances and is fully equipped for all of your gourmet needs. A large granite counter allows enough space for everyone to pitch in with the cooking duties or spectate on the three counter height stools. Under cabinet lighting illuminates the glass tile backsplash and supplies task lighting. A high chair is tucked away in the corner of the dining area for your wee ones.

The upstairs main floor has an open concept living area as well as three bedrooms and a hall bathroom. One of the couches is a sleeper sofa with full linens available for extra guests. The master bedroom has a brand new king bed and hypoallergenic matters (7/16/20), flat screen TV, ample closets and an ensuite full bathroom with a separate vanity sink area. Another bedroom has twin beds while the third bedroom has a day bed with pull out trundle and a baby crib.

A large master suite is located on the ground floor with a king size bed, flatscreen smart tv, ensuite full bathroom with a shower, large walk in closet and sitting area with recliners. Also on the ground floor is entry to the house and the laundry room which furnishes W/D and Hvac unit.

The car port located under the deck provides sheltered parking, space for the ping pong competition, outdoor shower and pool entry.

Would stay again!
House was clean and comfortable! Nicer than VRBO pictures. Well stocked kitchen. Nice pool. Everything close. Plenty of space to move around and not being on top of each other. Everything you want in a beach house.

Everything you need in one convenient package
Where do I start? Between the proximity to the beach, the generous amount of available beach gear, the pool, the well stocked kitchen, the comfortable beds- this place really does have it all and we enjoyed every minute staying here. Just wish it could’ve been longer!

Can't beat the location and pool
Location is amazing. Super close to the beach, grocery stores and a quick drive into Duck. The pool is awesome and all the extras like beach chairs, pool toys, bikes and sand toys. House is very comfortable and we enjoyed our stay very much.

Perfect Family OBX Getaway!
This place was perfect for my family. The house had everything we needed for an amazing vacation! Lots of toys, games, and puzzles for the kids. Nice beach towels are provided, which is a nice touch. This is a short walk from the beach, but a nice beach wagon is there to help with the haul-out. 🥰 Pool was great for night swimming and the owners seem to want everyone to have a good time! Also appreciated a quick check-out process without a lot of 'chores' before leaving. This was a very relaxing week!!

About the host

Hosted by Barbara Lipskis

Host profile image
Growing up in Chicago didn't offer Don and I opportunity to enjoy four full seasons of beautiful weather that we find in the south. For years we debated finding a place on the sound side or ocean side, north of Duck or south in Nags Head. Finally after years of summer rentals we found the perfect spot. I almost feel the need to rename the house "The perfect Spot" We have enjoyed every family vacation here throughout the years and hope you will enjoy all of the fun adventures the outer banks has to offer during your stay.

Why they chose this property

Did I mention this is the perfect location?? 15 minutes from 5 golf courses, great fishing spots, easy access to many amenities, but the big plus is you won't find yourself sitting in hours of traffic trying to get to your rental house. The forested area offers shaded streets and paths for biking, sound side access, community tennis courts, playground and wildlife. Just a short walk to the beach means you just have to throw a beach chair on your back and go.

What makes this property unique

As much as I love the beach sometimes the surf gets to be too much for the little ones. That prompted us to install a heated pool in winter of 2019. We are excited to offer this amenity to our guests and visiting family members. With golf, tennis, running paths, biking, windsurfing, fishing, swimming, surfing, volleyball, ping pong, right at your fingertips there isn't any reason to look any further.
