About this property

Flying Monkey! Updated Cottage Only 500’ to the Beach! Hot Tub - Flexible Stays!

Originally constructed in 1969 with an addition in the mid ‘70’s, the Flying Monkey embraces the ambiance of a true Outer Banks summer cottage while sporting modern conveniences and fresh local decor. This three bedroom, one full bath and two half bath cottage has a unique floor plan. The main structure is comprised of two bedrooms, one full and one half bath, kitchen and living room. Out the back door, through the covered breezeway, is the master suite featuring another half bath and laundry. This setup can accommodate a wide range of vacationers and is perfect for multiple couples, parents/grandparents or anyone that appreciates a bit of separation from the rest of their party while on vacation. All bedrooms are furnished with a queen bed, nightstand, dresser, mirror and 32” Roku smart TVs. Additionally, the master also includes a small sitting area making it - almost - a complete escape from the main house. Outdoor living space is abundant here. The front porch in the main house is comfortably furnished and is perfect for morning coffee or afternoon cocktails. The breezeway between structures has a small sitting area, outdoor shower and access to the patio which includes a Jacuzzi hot tub, picnic table and propane grill. Most importantly, a direct pedestrian only beach access only 500 feet, a 2 minute walk, away.

Linens, towels and a starter supply of paper products are included. There is hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes available for use as well. The only additional charges are the state/county occupancy taxes, house/hot tub cleaning fee and a refundable security deposit.

What a Nice Stay!
This was a really wonderful surprise property for our beach weekend trip. The house was comfortable and clean, with everything you could need tucked away. It had card games and board games and the couches and chairs were comfortable. The beach was just a short walk away and the wagon and chairs provided helped make that super easy. 5 stars overall!

Two moms weekend get away was great! The stay was wonderful and yes there was initially a musty smell, but nothing that a little air freshener couldn’t fix along with some open windows. Overall we enjoyed ourselves.

About the host

Hosted by Larry OBrien

Host profile image
I was born and raised in Illinois while my wife was born and raised in Virginia Beach. We met on blind date in 2000 and were married 1 year later. We currently live in Moyock (about an hour away) and have three wonderful children, a son and 2 daughters. We have vacationed in the OBX for many years and have always wanted to purchase a place for ourselves. It has taken some time, but here we are and we are looking forward to helping provide a wonderful vacation experience to all our guests.

Why they chose this property

When we started looking for properties, we had some pretty strict ideas about what we were looking for. When we first looked at this property, my wife fell in love and we knew this was the house we were looking for. With a 3 minute walk to the ocean and located in the center of everything, it really was a no-brainer!

What makes this property unique

Most vacation rentals on the Outer Banks require a week stay with strict weekend turnover. The Flying Monkey allows check-in and out any day of the week and only requires a three night minimum stay. Also, the house is equipped with electronic key-less entry so there are no keys to pick up, lose or return! Check-in is guaranteed by 3:30 pm and check-out is prior to 10:30 am.
