About this property

Life Off The Leash is located in First Flight Ridge, a very quiet, private Sound-side caul-de-sac in a gated community at MM 4.5 a short walk from the Currituck Sound and 2,000 ft from the ocean.

Catch a gorgeous sunrise over the Atlantic from our top deck and then go for a run or bike ride on the Wright Brothers Multi Use Path that runs along the Sound. Afterwards, prepare a gourmet breakfast in our chef's kitchen with plenty of seating for everyone.

Not in the mood for the beach? Load up your stand-up-paddle board or kayak and head over to your Sound-side community pier for a calm-water paddle.

After a day at the beach relax, drink in hand, in your private salt-water pool or somewhere on the 1,000 square feet of deck space. Let the kids play water volleyball or basketball or pedal their bikes around the quiet neighborhood.

Throw some surf 'n turf on the grill, grab a beverage, and head up to the deck to catch the sunset view over Albermarle Sound. Life Off The Leash sits higher than most homes in our community, so the views are wonderful.

Don't forget to look south where you'll see the Wright Brothers Monument 4 miles away!

If you don't feel like cooking, family friendly Barefoot Bernie's Bar and Grill (https://www.barefootbernies.com) is right at the entrance to the community. A little further down the street is Trio Wine Bar (http://obxtrio.com). Both are an easy walk.

After dinner come home and enjoy a fire in the fire pit while you relax and enjoy Life Off The Leash.

Bath towels and linens provided, washed at high temperatures.

Amazing, Amazing, Amazing!

From the moment we booked this home, we have had nothing short of great communication with Carter and Kristen. They made the check in/check out process very easy, and were in contact during the week to ensure we were having a great stay and always responded promptly to any questions we asked. Their home is beautifully decorated and in a fabulous location close to lots of beaches, shopping, ice cream places, mini-golf spots and even escape rooms. The house is filled with just about anything you could ever need (and more!) and was perfect for our family of 6 (including an infant.) I have already recommended staying at Life Off The Leash to many of our friends looking to stay in OBX!

Relaxing and fun

The house was exactly how it was advertised and very modern. There were so many activities at the house to do for our family. Pool is amazing and it is a very short walk to the beach. The house also has amazing views of the sound.

Highly recommended

A great stay! Our group included four teenage boys (12-16) and 4 adults including an octogenarian. There was something for everyone - we enjoyed the pool every day, kayaking on the sound, ping-pong, hoops, stargazing, and just relaxing on the wraparound decks. Kitchen is large and well-equipped and everything was sparkling clean. Definitely a '10'.

Our stay at Life Off The Leash

Our stay at this beach house was wonderful. From the time we got there to the time we left the owners were there every step of the way with any questions that we had. There was a book there that listed places to see and eat, if you have never been to the area. The house was beautiful and very clean. The huge pool was wonderful for the kids. I could not have asked for a better place to stay. You can drive or walk to the beach. We did both. The walk was about 15 minutes, not bad at all. The house is a 5-minute walk to ice cream shops, restaurants, etc. It is the perfect place to go to get away and has plenty of room. You can ride bikes down to the shops or around the neighborhood. It was very relaxing. Golfing, go kart racing and ziplining are right down the street. There is also a theatre to go to during a rainy day. The aquarium is only a 30-minute ride down in Manteo. There is also a water slide park 20 minutes down the road as well. The bay is the other direction and walking distance as well. It is by far the best vacation rental ever. It is the perfect distance to everything. Thank you for letting us stay at your beach house.

Why they chose this property

There's something magical about the moments right after a sunrise and right before a sunset. When we climbed to the top deck and were able to see in every direction for miles we fell in love with the house. We think you will, too.
