This a beautiful well maintained home. The owners are very responsive and easy to work with. Everything was wonderful. The home is extremely close to the beach and the walk is really nice. Very close to restaurants and shopping as well. Very cozy and comfortable place to stay.

Great house with a good location. Close to everything you need . Owner was very communicative and responsive. Would definitely stay here again . Jacuzzi was a nice way to end the days .

We had a wonderful stay at Lively Up Yourself! Located just south of the main commercial section of Kill Devil Hills, the cottage is walkable to several local restaurants, Stop & shop deli/gas station/gift shop, and of course the beach! Nightly walks to the nearby Dairy Queen were a must. We traveled with a few teenagers and the location allowed us to give them freedom they don’t have in our less accessible home area. Access to the beach is directly down the street so it made transporting beach gear back and forth incredibly easy. The cottage is generously stocked with beach toys and chairs so it was one less thing for us to pack to bring down. The outdoor showers made washing all the sand away a breeze. Inside the cottage you will find everything you could need for an enjoyable stay. The home is stocked with many of the general perishables you often need for a beach week and the owners have a great policy of if you use the last thing just replace it, making it so much easier for renters not needing to haul all that down. Puzzles and games were ample and the outdoor space attached to the house was a great place to wind down with dinner al fresco after a long day at the beach! Cindi the owner was very responsive to my questions and concerns and I had no difficulty getting in touch with her. Instructions in the home were clear and concise and made departing the property very easy. We would definitely stay here again and think the cottage is a fantastic find!

Stayed here multiple times now. House is perfect condition. Location is amazing: short walk to the beach and close to everything in KDH & Nags Head. Great place to stay!

Excellent location within walking distance to the beach. Clean and well-stocked. Great patio and back yard area.

My family of 5 just stayed in this super cute, beautifully maintained property to celebrate my mother’s 80th birthday! Host was easy to communicate with and responded readily. House was well stocked with the basics and more! Great sitting areas in both the front yard and porch areas. Great backyard space with a hot tub. So close to beach access and centrally located in the heart of Kill Devil Hills! We had a wonderful experience !

First impression was great, clean, floor plan had an open feel, nice renovations, welcoming decor, comfortable beds. Outdoor hot tub and shower were a plus! Hosts were very responsive to our needs. Would definitely stay here again.

This is the second time we spent at this vacation home. We enjoyed it so much late year we wanted to stay here again. The house is very clean and beautifully decorated and very well stocked. It is a block and a half from the beach, a gas station/deli is on the way to the beach which works for ordering lunch. Numerous restaurants and stores are nearby also. We would likely rent this vacation home again in the future.

This little home instantly caught my attention online for multiple reasons, but it's somehow even cuter in person. Great decor inside and out, close proximity to beach, convenience store, and restaurants, plus a quiet neighborhood. We instantly felt comfortable here. Good communication with host, super clean, and just all around a great rental property. . here and very much enjoyed our stay.

This was our second time staying at this house and it was just as wonderful as the first time. The house was spotless when we arrived, and was fully stocked with everything we needed (pots, pans, dish soap, paper towels, etc..). The kids loved the big backyard and the hammock. And we all loved the hot tub. There was plenty of beach stuff for us to use, like toys, boogie boards, chairs, and umbrellas. We will definitely plan to stay here again the next time we are in the Outer Banks!

The property is great and well stocked with plates, utensils, pots, and even paper towels. The house is very close to the beach and many cool eateries. The host was easy to reach and addressed any questions in a timely manner. We have created amazing family memories and our stay at the Lively Up Yourself house made it a wonderful vacation in OBX!

Second time our family stayed here. Hosts are great, house is in impeccable condition and location is A + (3 min walk to the beach, lots of restaurants nearby). Overall a great place to stay in OBX!

The property was as described and pictured! These days that’s hard to believe. My boys and I lived the place and its proximity to beach and activities. We will stay there again if we are I the outer banks.

This was our 4th stay at Lively Up Yourself, and though there have been some subtle changes and upgrades the cottage is as warm and inviting as it ever was! The decor is on point throughout and the amenities are perfect for a couple or small family getaway. Cindi and John are gracious hosts, very easy to get in touch with and communicate with from booking all the way to checkout and beyond. Great location, great weather, and the hot tub is just amazing. The jasmine-draped pergola over the top is a nice touch. We can’t wait to make our way back and enjoy a little bit of life on a sandbar!
