The Dock
The space was lovely and very clean. The view out the window over the sound was excellent, and we could go downstairs for great sunsets on the dock. We enjoyed walking distance to everything - beach, shops, restaurants. Erin was very responsive and flexible to our needs.

Vitamin Sea
We had a great time place is private and super cozy, the location for the price can’t be beat!!

Laughing Whales - Not your average rental!
One of the best AirBnB’s we’ve ever stayed in! Accommodations are very appropriate given the coastal setting and proximity to the beach. House has everything you could need for the super walkable day trips to the beach and more! Inside is comfortable and makes you feel as if you’re truly in a beach cottage with neat coastal decor throughout. Couldn’t recommend it more!

Easy Breezy beach house on secluded waterfront
Our family had the best time at Easy Breezy. Alex had thought of everything when it comes to a vacation home and I can't even put into words how peaceful it was. We kayaked, paddle boarded, fished , napped, sun bathed on the dock and enjoyed the hot tub which was an amazing perk. We caught 6 crabs and some ocean perch. This place had everything you could want and we didn't want to leave. It was by far the best rental we have ever stayed at. Our dogs even had a blast!

Ocean view, near beach! Large pool/new hot tub
Perfect spot for a family vacation in the OBX! We loved the location (very short walk to the beach, several great restaurants), lots of space to spread out and games/cards/puzzles in the house, and the pool/spa were amazing! There are tons of pool toys and floats, and beach gear too! Great view of the ocean from the upstairs balcony. There is also new furniture in the upstairs living room that the pictures don’t show which was an added bonus! We will be back!

Remodel! Pool. Hot tub. Fire pit. Steps to beach.
Great location and home for our friends with family trip! The pool and backyard was the perfect hangout and the beach was a quick walk away. Very comfortable for 3 families all with kids! Grateful our fur babies could join as well! Travis was very communicative and helpful. Highly recommend this spot!

Historic Beach Cottage 700ft to ocean #singlestory
We absolutely loved our stay in southern shores! This lovely cottage is a 2 min stroll to the beach on a quiet dead end road and a 10 min bike ride into the town of duck! We enjoyed the peaceful beach as well as the wonderful screened in porch to start and end each day! The beach toys and bikes were a great addition! We can’t wait to come back for another visit!

Four Winds #1-pets,sleeps5,fooseballcoffeetable
I had a very enjoyable stay. The cottage was spotless, very clean, beds were comfortable, it was exactly how it is depicted and described. I needed a place to decompress after my dad’s funeral and this was just the place. I traveled with my German Shepherd and we were able to take long walks on the beach right across the street. The host was very responsive to any questions I had and communicated when the place was ready early. Would totally recommend.

Luxury: Oceanside with Pool & Views
Brittany was an excellent host who responded as soon as possible to any inquires or requests for accommodations. The house was perfect and absolutely stunning. With having a two year old with my family, there were toys there ready to play which made it even better! The view was spectacular and the hot tub was equally amazing. We had some car trouble during when packing our car during check out which made us late for check out time unfortunately and she was very friendly and understanding. The walk to the beach was easy and quick. No complaints at all! Definitely can’t wait to stay again (when the two year old isn’t teething and going through sleep regression lol). 10/10 highly recommend!

Oceanfront Luxury Penthouse w/Stunning Views!
The condo was very charming with new appointments and has a beautiful view of the ocean. We enjoyed sunrise each morning and the sound of the waves crashing each night. The kitchen was well equipped and had sufficient space for the two of us. It was also nice to have both a full and half bath as well as a door between the sink area and toilet/shower in the full bath. Having several options for coffee with espresso, drip, and a Keurig was a big plus A few observations we want to share. It would be very tight to fit 6 people in the place but you could comfortably have two couples or a couple with two kids with the second pair on the sleeper sofa. Overall it was a great stay for our anniversary weekend!!!

Scarborough Lane Hideaway - Beach, Pool, Bikes!
The place was exactly what we were looking for. We were in town for the Jazz Fest which was across the street, so it was perfect. The beach was a little bit of a walk, but wasn't the primary reason for our visit so it was fine. The place is really cute and comfortable.

Quaint Beach Cottage, >50 Feet from Beach
Thoroughly enjoyed our little weekend getaway. Great location to the beach.

Pool | Stunning Ocean View | Balcony | MP 9
The location is amazing with just a few steps to the beach and views to the ocean. The appartment is nicely furnished and has all that you need (excluding beach towels/chairs), and everything is perfectly clean!

Changing Tides in Duck, NC, OBX
Absolutely beautiful, clean house. Joy was great with response and accommodation. View was beautiful and everything was as described. Thank you for memories.

Cozy 2 Bedroom Cottage Steps to the Sea
This cottage was exactly as expected and probably the cleanest cottage we’ve ever stayed in and that says a lot being that it’s pet friendly and that we come 1-3 times per year for at least 30 years. It smelled fresh. It even seemed like the blankets for the bedding had been freshly washed and the bathroom was spotless. We really loved this place and it was perfect for our family of 4 and our pup. We will definitely try to come back and stay here.

Old School -Brand New 3BR w/ Pool in Heart of Duck
Beautiful, immaculate home! Very high end aesthetic, furniture, fixtures, dish-ware. The location has something to offer for all. The beach was a fairly short walk. The house came equipped with beach chairs, an umbrella, and a buggy to tote your items. I couldn’t have asked for a better environment. It’s a great house for a small group. I actually visited solo with my puppy and enjoyed having all the space.

Oceanfront Nags Head Beach House - with extras!
We have stayed in lots of Airbnb’s and this is my favorite! The house was spotless. It is decorated beautifully… and comfortably. It looks like a better homes and gardens beach house. Clearly Carrie pays attention to details. The kitchen is very well stocked. She even provided a new sponge for dishes. The views are fantastic and the access to the beach was so much fun. Carrie has lots of games, a myriad of books, and toys for kids. The house felt homey and so comfortable. We had a wonderful family trip!

Banks Cottage - cozy minimalist escape by the sea
This beach house was everything we hoped for and more! It was the perfect spot for our girls’ trip bright, airy, and super clean, with plenty of space for all of us to relax and hang out. We loved the open layout. The sunsets from the patio were unforgettable! The host went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and even left us a sweet welcome note.

Semi-Oceanfront | King Bed | Central Location (A2)
Tara’s place worked perfectly for our family (two adults, two young kids) and honestly restored my faith in AirBnBs. You can tell she really puts effort into making it an awesome place. It was kid friendly - spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated without being fussy. The appliances are all brand new, the bed and linens are super comfortable, there’s great water pressure in the shower, the kitchen is well stocked, and the washer/dryer was so helpful. It’s super centrally located with a ton to do in the area, and it’s easily walkable to the beach. (Though there’s no real ocean view, if that’s your thing.) It was our first time in the Outer Banks and we’d probably choose a quieter town in the future but if we were to come back to KDH rebooking here would be top of our list.

'Loophole' | Oceanfront | Historic Cottage
This home certainly makes for a relaxing vacation, as you have direct walk-out access to the beach; it feels warm and welcoming, everything you need to unwind and simply enjoy the sea and sand. Ideal location. We would definitely stay again.

Salt N Sun studio - Moments from the waves
We were visiting to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday, and Ashley was super accommodating to help me celebrate it!! I mailed a few decorations ahead of time to surprise him and Ashley hung them up before we got there. I would have loved to be able to stay longer, the location was perfect and the beach was quiet. 10/10 ⭐️

Oceanfront 2BR Renovated Condo Linens Included
Great location within steps to the beautiful Outer Banks beaches. Steve's place is comfortable, stylishly decorated, and so close to the ocean that you can fall asleep to the waves crashing upon the beach at night!

Sunny beach house, steps away from beach!
We had a wonderful week at the cottage! The house is small but very cozy and well equipped. Kitchen had everything we needed to make a few meals. There were plenty of paper towels, garbage bags, toilet paper, soaps, etc. The bedrooms were comfortable and cozy. The bunk beds are a bit small for an adult person, but we made it work. The view from the deck is fantastic! Perfect to sit in the morning with a cup of coffee and watch the dolphins. It was by far the cleanest house we've ever rented, and Jennifer was very responsive form the time we checked in and check out. The beach access is very convenient, right in front of the house. We definitely hope to come back again! Thank you, Jennifer, for being a great host:-)

"Blue Umbrella"
I had to go to the OBX unexpectedly when my father broke his hip on vacation. I had to book something for just me while on the way. Steve & Diane responded within minutes and arranged for me to have a place - which is less than a mile from the OBX hospital. Each morning I was able to walk to the beach in under two minutes and get a swim before spending the day at the hospital. Then I enjoyed a sunset stroll on the beach before bed each night. It’s a wonderful place for single travelers (and couples too, I suppose). I loved staying at “cottage row,” which I have wanted to do for over 40 years.
