About this property

Slow Pace, OBX Cozy Beach Cottage, 2 min. walk to beach

Welcome to the Slow Pace cottage. A 1945 original Outer Banks cottage built on the Sea Ranch property. This beautiful cottage was moved to it's current location in the 1960's. It was completely renovated in the Spring of 2021 providing a cozy, comfortable place to relax and get away from it all. Centrally located between the Bypass and the Beach Road in Kill Devil Hills. You are two blocks from the Clark Street beach access, 357 steps to having your toes in the sand, watching and listening to the ocean waves roll in. You have the entire cottage and yard to yourself. Enjoy the covered deck, reading room, 2 TV's, fully stocked kitchen, and reclining couches. All linens provided.

You will enjoy spending time on the covered deck on the front of the cottage. There is always a nice breeze.

-Living room with 55" Smart TV , DVD player, and comfy reclining couches.
-The downstairs bedroom has a queen size bed and sitting area for two.
-There is a cozy sitting room we call the reading room downstairs where we hope you can enjoy time reading some of books provided including some about Outer Banks history or just sit, relax and enjoy the quiet.

-The upstairs bonus room has a couch, Smart TV, DVD player, game console, board games and work area.

Other things to note

The cottage is a quick 2 minute walk to the end of the street, cross the beach road and you are at the Clark Street beach access. You have access to public parking and a bathhouse! Beautiful place to watch the sunrise!!

Gas/convenience:
The cottage is less than a ½ mile from the closest convenience store and gas station.

Shopping/Groceries:
A short 5 minute ride south on the bypass will take you to Harris Teeter, and the Dollar Tree. A short 5 minute ride north will take you to Publix, Lowes, Food Lion, Belk and many other smaller stores including a nail salon and Chinese take out.

Booking during Hurricane Season (June 1st-Nov. 30th):
Booking a stay on our little sandbar during Hurricane season is always a little risky. These storms are unpredictable and can occur most often days or maybe a week before your stay. As listed, we have a strict cancellation policy which allows for a full refund within the first 48 hours as long as the check-in date is at least 14 days away, a 50% refund for cancellations made at least 7 days before check-in, and no refunds for cancellations made within 7 days of check-in. If there were a mandatory evacuation while you were staying we would then give a full refund for the days that were affected by this action made by Dare County. If you choose to leave but no mandatory evacuation was issued you will not receive a refund. Some guests choose to purchase their own travel insurance policy through an independent company if they are nervous about this. Some of the most beautiful times of the year on the Outer Banks are during Hurricane season, but our policies are important for you to consider when booking.

***Must be at least 25 years old to rent cottage.
***Host requires names and ages of all guests prior to check in.
***Person booking cottage must be occupying cottage during stay.
***No pets allowed-not pet friendly.

Clean cottage

This was one of the cleanest places we've ever stayed at. It was also refreshing to have all the linens ready for our arrival. Cottage is on a very quiet street with beach access on the same street. We would definitely stay again.

Amazing Cottage with Great Owners!

Booked a last-minute beach stay at "Slow Pace" for my wife's birthday. The owners Sandy and Russ were super communicative during the check-in process and actually surprised us with Happy Birthday balloons and a card! This is above and beyond normal hospitality. I'm truly thankful for this gesture. The cottage itself is in A++ condition. Spotlessly clean with super cool layout and what looked like brand new renovations. The front porch was a perfect hangout area (with cover if needed). The short walk to the beach was a breeze and the beach wasn't overly crowded due to the mostly residential area that it's in. There's a great sandwich shop, Ten o Six, within a 30 sec walk that serves a variety of awesome sandwiches and breakfast all day. There's also an ice cream shop/creamery in the little complex. Overall = 10 out of 10, 5 Stars Slow Pace is a great place to stay in the Outer Banks

We had a wonderful time!

We celebrated my children a birthday and the host had balloons greeting them when we got it. It added such a magical touch. The location was perfect walking distance to all kinds of things. We also took off to enjoy other towns in either direction. Wonderful memories

Clean, cute, and convenient

Great house in a great location. Very walkable to the beach and restaurants. Hosts left some great little surprises to make our stay more enjoyable. Everything about the house was adorable and immaculate. The kitchen had everything needed for basic cooking. The bathroom amenities in the downstairs full bath included everything needed for a two night stay for two, and the upstairs half bath was convenient for upstairs sleeping. We would definitely stay again because of the location alone.
