Comfortable stay in a classic house

What a nice place! What a great location to vacation with your family. The house was beautiful, and we appreciate the obvious upgrades to the home. If you have four-wheel drive vehicle, with permit, you can just hop in your car for a few minutes' drive to the beach access or just a short walk to the access. With neighborhood pool, hot tub and large decking there was too much to do for one week. We love it...Thank you!

Nice house for family beach week!

Between the Sound and Sea was a nice house for our family beach week. The house was clean and in good condition for the most part with modern amenities. It was not as close to the ocean or sound as the description indicated. Communication with the owner was great!

Great house with lots of space in great location.

My mother, brother, cousin and her husband were very comfortable in the house. It had plenty of room so that we didn’t feel we were on top of each other. The house was clean, communication with Michelle was timely, and access to the house was simple. We loved being in Avon. Would rent again!

Great family vacation home

The house is in a great location in a quiet neighborhood but close to the sound, the ocean and lots of restaurants. The house wasn’t the cleanest (we were asked to not wear shoes inside and all of our socks turned black walking around), but it is dog friendly so I guess that’s the cost. There were quite a few rules and some of the furnishings were outdated (like ceiling fans in the rooms that were rickety and loud), but it was nicely equipped and a great size for our needs.

Clean, relaxing, easy

This was our first ever vacation home rental, and needless to say it not disappoint. Michelle was very informative, helpful, friendly, and made the whole thing easy from check in to check out. No one bothered us the entire trip, the house is very well equipped for a large family of 8 and has plenty of amenities. Located close enough to the important stuff like beach, sound, pool, orv access, a 24hr grocery store etc. The wife and I spent a couple evenings alone on the sound doing some fishing and drinking, truly was a relaxing and enjoyable stay. We look forward to the next visit

Great host, great house!

Loved our stay at this home! The property was kept very clean and the perfect size for our group of six. The kitchen had all the equipment we could've asked for and hot tub was massive. Our host, Michelle, was very good at communicating and even walked us through a minor repair on the faucet when its batteries went out. The home is in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood about a two minute drive from the beach. Really enjoyed our stay here!

Family Christmas Getaway

This stay was perfect for our family. The house had everything we could have needed and more! We ranged in age from 65-1 years old and Michele and Lonni provided us with games, kitchen supplies, bedding, TVs and entertainment for us all. We stayed 5 days and never had to leave the house! We had great communication with the hosts and will look forward to staying with them again. We highly recommend this property!

Amazing and affordable getaway in our favorite beach town!

Our family of 4 and cousin's family of 4 were looking for a short term reasonable rental in Avon for a fall trip. This property ended up being perfect! The main living space was the perfect size and setup for us all to hang out comfortably. We love to cook our own meals and the kitchen was roomy and modern. The house was spotless and the owner went above and beyond expectations to take care of our requests. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone visiting Avon or the surrounding area.

Everything was great! The house and location was wonderful! The Hostess Michelle was fabulous and always there to help with any questions we had. This rental accepted pets and we were able to bring our dog, if this home has had pets before you could not tell!! It was so clean! The kitchen was fully stocked with whatever you needed!

Nice, really comfortable shore rental

We took the house for a reunion of out 4 adult children and our 5 year old granddaughter. We needed a pet friendly rental (our 14 year old Golden Retriever had a tough time outdoor stairs to get up to the house and down the the ground - but in her younger days would have had a blast) - and having a community pool and shopping walking distance was ideal. Avon is a quiet, almost sleepy town with good restaurants and quiet beaches - not a party town - which was fine for our purposes. The location is perfect for a family vacation on the outer banks. The access to the beach is easily walkable - although we drove to drop off our gear and parked the vehicles at the community pool. The beach was practically all our own - despite it still being August, 90 ° and clear skies the entire stay! The house really is well stocked and made us feel right at home. The property is clean and comfortably decorated - but not pristine or in any way ostentatious - all the evidence of being lived in and taken care of by the owners. Michele (owner) was eager to help and make our stay comfortable. She was accessible by phone/text to answer questions, solve mysteries and address concerns. If you bring a dog - be aware that the brush around the sandy property is thorny and there are small cactus plants with ferocious needles - you will want to get acquainted with where it's safe to walk in daylight - steer them clear of the rough patches. The lakes around the community are pretty - but signs warm if possible alligators - so not for swimming. If you prefer the quiet waters of the sound side of the island - the Haulover Day Use area is about a five minute drive - has parking, showers and restrooms and lots of room to stretch out to swim, kayak, paddle board and relax! Final notes: former renters had left menus for recommended take out food and you should check the locations - one was 40-minutes and another more than an hour away!! There are plenty of great local choices - some in walking distance. If you're looking for a dog friendly comfortable place with 4- Bedrooms, lots of room to stretch out and great access to the natural beauty of the outer banks - this will fit your bill.

Peaceful stay in Avon!

My family was looking for a peaceful / restful place to vacation. Avon certainly offered what we want wanted. The house was in a great area. Easy access to the beach, grocery shopping and the Avon Pier for fishing. Our favorite time of day was at dinner when we all sat in the screened in porch and had dinner and conversation. We also enjoyed playing some of the games that were available thanks to the owner. The owner was always easy to reach and very helpful when we had questions. Special shout out to Lester!

About the host

Hosted by Michelle McDonald

My husband and I looked for over 6 years for a place to call our own in the Outer Banks, and we finally found it! Between the Sound and Sea Escape! We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

The house is located right between the sound and the ocean with its own amazing view of a clear water lake. We liked how close it is to shopping, and love the fact that it still has a "small town" feel that we could not get in the upper Outer Banks.

What makes this property unique

Kinnakeet Shores amenities including pool tennis court, and new pickleball court, as well as Sound and Ocean access courtesy if the HOA.
