About this property

Oceanfront Cottage - 3 bedroom/2 bath, Pet Friendly, Linens Included

Come enjoy our oceanfront beach home in the heart of Kill Devil Hills by Avalon Pier. A great open floor plan for beach lovers, fishers, surfers and families. Enjoy breakfast, lunch, and dinner with oceanfront views in the newly renovated kitchen. Two of the three bedrooms and the living room are oceanfront. The kitchen and dining area lead out onto an oceanfront deck. The deck offers great sunshine in the morning and in the afternoon a shady break from the sun’s rays. Perfect for parents seeking to enjoy the beach and solitude of their kid's afternoon nap (after wearing themselves ragged from a morning on the beach) while sitting on a oceanfront deck with a baby monitor, reading a book, sipping a drink and listening to the waves.

Walk to Chilipeppers, Avalon Pier, or Awful Arthurs for dinner, drinks or both! Avalon Pier (just a short walk on the beach from the house) also has a fun arcade for the kids. Visit the Wright Brothers National Memorial (just a short drive) and see where the first flight took place. Drive to one of the lighthouses or as many as you can cram into your trip! Currituck Beach Lighthouse - 60 min drive, Cape Hatteras Lighthouse - 60 min drive, Bodie Island Lighthouse - 20 min drive (if you go to Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, you’ll drive right by Bodie), Ocracoke Island Lighthouse - 70 min drive + ferry ride + 15 min drive, Roanoke Marshes Lighthouse - 15 mins. The North Carolina Aquarium on Roanoke Island is just 15 mins away and has an amazing sea turtle exhibit, jellyfish exhibit and a great shark tank! There’s plenty to do in Kill Devil Hills, from family-friendly putt-putt golf to late-night bands and DJ's (Outer Banks Brewing Station & Jack Brown’s). Be sure and watch a sunset from Jockey’s Ridge State Park in Nags Head (just 10 mins away) or at least stop by and climb up the East Coast’s largest living sand dune for ocean to sound views! Eat a Mahi-Mahi BLT from Blue Moon in Nags Head and stop in I Got Your Crabs in Kitty Hawk or O'neal's Sea Harvest in Wanchese for fresh off the boat seafood.

If you like Avalon Pier, take a drive and visit all the oceanfront pier bars. Each one with its own unique flavor - Captain Andy’s Tiki Bar at Nags Head Fishing Pier and Fishheads at Outer Banks Fishing Pier (locals hint: go on a live music night).

This rental has lots of room for multiple activities. Good Vibrations features large open living spaces with unobstructed ocean views from the main living room, kitchen and dining room table. On those rare rainy days, you can watch a movie with the family and still enjoy great views of the beach and the Atlantic Ocean. Smart TV in living room so you can connect to all your favorite streaming services. An adjoining second living room has additional seating.

We have central HVAC in the house and a separate HVAC unit for the upstairs bedrooms/bathroom.

The main level primary bedroom (king bed) offers privacy with two second-floor bedrooms enjoying direct views of the ocean. The two oceanfront bedrooms are connected by a bathroom. Each bedroom has a flat-screen tv with cable. One oceanfront bedroom has a queen bed. The other oceanfront bedroom has a king bed and a bunk bed. High-Speed WiFi access is available throughout the house and oceanfront deck for some devices. Our home is smoke-free. A foot wash and outdoor shower is available at the bottom of the stairs to the oceanfront deck to rinse the sand.

The kitchen is fully stocked with utensils, dishes, etc. Also toaster, coffee machine (filters provided), waffle iron, crockpot, seafood cooking pot, shrimp deveiner, crab crackers. ! An open floor plan allows for the cooks of the family to not be stuck in the kitchen alone and stay in the action.

There are stairs to access the house or a small wooden walkway with 6 steps that lead to the side of the house and an oceanfront deck. A small storage area is located under the stairs inside the house that fits any beach, surf or fishing gear you may want to store inside.

Perfect beach getaway
The property had comfortable beds, plenty of seating for a family of four (could accommodate more) and a well-equipped kitchen. Loved being on the beach and convenient to grocery, restaurants, activity. Despite having terrible weather during our stay, we had a great trip.

Valentine’s Week at the Outer Banks
We had a great time! Loved the house and the views. Well stocked with everything needed to cook and enjoy being there. Close to lots of activities. Would definitely recommend and stay here again if we came back to this area! Couple of maintenance issues for owners: Upstairs king room with bunk bed - the bottom of the dresser is splitting at the drawer and will break soon if not repaired. Bathroom light downstairs is flickering like it’s burning out.

Beautiful View
This is a cozy little house on the beach. The location makes up for any shortcomings in the house itself. We loved it. I would note 2 things before renting. 1. The thermostat will not allow the general AC to go below 72. 2. The showers are about 6'6" total. If you are tall you are going to feel cramped.

Great location
Overall great house, but they really need a new cleaning crew. Cons: We found a bloody pillowcase that had been placed back on the bed when they made it, I had to vacuum the mattress before making the bed because it was covered in bugs, 4 days in we found the moldy still wet rugs that they left in the dryer, we had to wash every cup we pulled out of the cupboard, every blanket had a stain on it, the slider was way too difficult to open, the upstairs floor makes SO MUCH NOISE when anyone is walking upstairs, right next to public beach access, fridge smelled so bad, washing machine smelled really bad, there are no visible stairs or shower platform due to sand build up. Pros: great location to beach, stores, and all restaurants, comfortable furniture, basic items were present at check in, easy check in, Sarah was responsive and great. If they got a better cleaning crew, we would return.

About the host

Hosted by Mindy, Wes, & Sara Brubaker

Host profile image
After all the kids went to college, My husband and I moved to the East Coast from Missouri. We have children in North Carolina, Oklahoma, and Colorado. We fell in love with the Outer Banks on our first trip down and haven't looked back since. It's our favorite place to go to unwind, catch up with friends and spend some time with the family.

Why they chose this property

After falling in love with the Outer Banks, we began the search for a second home in the area. The location of our beach cottage combined with the interior charm was the main reason we purchased it. With a lifeguard stand less than 100 yards away, it's the perfect location for families traveling with small children. We love to sit on the deck and watch the sunrise beside Avalon Pier. The extra parking at Hayman is great when we have friends and family over for BBQ's and beach days. We've worked hard to improve this property since we purchased it and have added many upgrades. We hope you love our beach cottage as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

The views from Good Vibrations are second to none. With expansive ocean views from the living room, you can enjoy those rare rainy days at the beach and not even miss out on the spectacular ocean views. The dining room and kitchen also boast floor-to-ceiling views of the beach right outside. One of our favorite pastimes is to enjoy breakfast, watching the dolphins swim by.
