Private efficiency close to the beach & bay! Great for couples. Dog-friendly.

This property was absolutely perfect for us and our dog. The location was great and the private deck and fenced back yard were an added bonus. Our dog was very happy with that! The room was extremely clean and comfortable. Jeanne-Marie is an excellent host and was extremely pleasant and helpful with suggestions as to restaurants and things to do. Will certainly stay here again on our next visit to OBX.

I loved this beautiful neighborhood, it had a lovely walking path near the sound, and quiet wallable streets within the neighborhood itself. It was so close to nice coffee shops and within minutes driving to the beach. It was the perfect size for us and my dog loved exploring and relaxing on the deck. Jeanne-Marie was easily reachable and very kind in giving us suggestions. What a quiet, peaceful stay.

Host is GRACIOUSLY inviting and communicates check-in and check-out procedure perfectly. Room is perfect size for a solo traveler with any size dog, or a couple with a small to medium dog. Quaint and inviting accommodations include a queen bed that’s super comfortable, a smart TV for nights in or rainy days, Wi-Fi, and a mini fridge for beverages. Yard space is great for dogs to exercise in and do business! The OBX area is bustling with things to do. The efficiency studio is just a short walk to the sound and a bike ride or short drive to the Atlantic coast. Also short drives to Wright Brothers monument, tourist destinations like Duck, and easy access to restaurants, activities, and groceries with a Publix and Target by each other. And there's plenty to do for dog families too — just keep Fido leashed at all times and pick up his business, and you’re set! There are zero flaws to this space if you fit the bill. It’s a perfect-sized getaway space for folks who want to get out on the town more, while still offering solace after a busy day or during rain!

What a great stay. The room with so comfortable and cozy. The property manager had amazing communication with us so we knew exactly where to go and then what amenities and beaches were around it. My husband said it was the most comfortable sleep he had had on that mattress!

Great location to see the sites and a backyard to let our dogs out. Owner very accommodating.

Consider yourself lucky if you ever have the opportunity to enjoy a small piece of paradise. You'll never come across a more accommodating host/homeowner. Those with pets and/or children will appreciate being a short walking distance from things like mini golf or the sound side if you like calmer waters. Those like my wife will love that there is a Dunkin's just a 3 minute drive away, with several restaurants not much further. If you or any loved ones have never seen a light house, there's one less than an hour away. So consider adding it to the list of special sights to encounter during your visit. I'll personally admit the only downside to this serene location and environment is you can't stay forever.

We enjoyed our stay. We loved the location. The owners are very nice too.

Great location. Great place. Will definitely be back!

This was an excellent find for a relaxed, one week getaway to the OBX for me and my medium-sized dog. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood very close to the sound so we had wonderful sunset walks along a multi-use path. It was very convenient to go to Jockey's Ridge State Park, Nags Head Woods, or the Wright Brothers Memorial for a few hours of adventure with the dog and then come back for a little downtime at the beach. Jeanne Marie is a welcoming host – responsive to questions and provided great suggestions for restaurants all within 5-20 min (Salt Box Cafe is a must). The shaded deck and large backyard expanded the compact, indoor living space. The deck was perfect for enjoying coffee or a drink and watching the pup run around the securely fenced backyard (a real bonus for a hovering pet parent). The bedroom and bath were tasteful and very clean but no closet. There is a spacious mini fridge with a separate freezer for saving that ice cream that I just couldn't finish. The host kindly provided some starter coffee until I could go to the nearby Publix. All in all, this was a very comfortable and peaceful place to stay which I would definitely book again.

Great little getaway! Yard was perfect for our dogs and the location and owner was amazing. Highly recommend!

Loved the place. Woukd absolutely stay again.

We enjoyed our short stay at Jeanne-Marie’s property. We got to chat with Jeanne-Marie for a bit before heading out and she was very sweet! We appreciated the water bottles, only wish that coffee was provided for the coffee maker, but that’s not a big deal. The area is very nice and we got to check out the Wright Brothers museum which is nearby!

We had never been to the Outer Banks, and our stay at this little Kill Devil Hills room was a great home base for us to explore from. The room is small but updated and with everything you need. The balcony access on the second floor was perfect for lounging in mornings and evenings. And it was so great to have access to Jeanne-Marie's backyard for our pup to frolic in when he wanted a bit more room. Jeanne-Marie provided the best recommendations -- we visited three of her suggested restaurants and took a stroll on the path along the sound, as she highly recommended, which was beautiful at sunset. She was super responsive when we had questions, too, and it was nice to know she was easy to reach. As we were driving home, my husband said he'd happily stay here again if we return!

This trip was absolutely perfect—a 10/10 experience! I highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a peaceful beach retreat, especially couples traveling with a dog. The property is beautifully maintained, clean, and thoughtfully designed. It’s an ideal getaway for those who want to relax and unwind in a serene setting. The porch was our favorite spot, surrounded by well-kept plants—it felt like our own little oasis. We spent hours enjoying the quiet, peaceful atmosphere there. Our dog, Bentley, was in heaven! He loved lounging on the porch, playing in the spacious, fenced backyard, and taking long walks along the beach. The property is not only perfect for pets but also offers plenty of cozy spots for couples to relax. The host was incredibly responsive, making sure we had everything we needed and offering excellent recommendations for local activities. As avid runners, we appreciated the scenic sound path nearby, where we ran every day. Each evening, we took Bentley to watch the sunset at one of the many water access points—a perfect way to end the day. This trip was truly wonderful, and we can’t wait to return.

We were able to take our newly adopted Doxie to the beach for her first visit. The property was super comfortable and clean, great neighborhood with walking trails, convenient location and has a great host! I would definitely recommend this property!

While we were comfortable overall, I would suggest an extra blanket because it was quite cool in the room and we were not able to adjust the thermostat. Also, the outside stairwell was super dark at night, a light would have been helpful. A hair dryer and soap for the shower would have been great too. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay.
