About this property

5 mins to Sound and Beach! Pet friendly & perfect for couples and small fam!

Float On is the perfect cottage for your Outer Banks getaway! It is centrally located in Kill Devil Hills, providing easy access to neighboring towns and many OBX attractions.

This classic saltbox home rests in a quiet KDH neighborhood and features living space, a full kitchen, two bedrooms, one full bath, and laundry facilities. For your convenience, there is an enclosed outdoor shower to rinse off after the beach. Relax on the back deck or multi-level patio.

One bedroom is suited with a king bed and the other with two twin beds. Linens and bath towels are provided.

The fully equipped kitchen with countertop seating is ready for you to cook and enjoy meals. There's also a charcoal grill in the backyard.

When it’s time to wind down, hang in the living room where there is a 50-inch Smart TV and wifi. We've also stocked the house with board games and movies for those rainy days.

Your well-mannered pup is welcome here too! The backyard is fenced in; however, please keep your pet company while in the yard and pick up after them. While away from the home, we ask that you crate your dog. We do request a non-refundable pet fee.

Float On is not only located near many shops and restaurants, the beautiful Albemarle Sound is a short walk away where you will have water access, many an incredible sunset, and miles of paved multi-use trail. A public boat ramp is also nearby. The Atlantic Ocean is not far either. Third Street provides a crosswalk and a straight shot to the beach! Our guests enjoyed the bikes and beach carts provided.

Have kids or like tennis or pickle ball? The newest public park in KDH, featuring a splash pad, modern playground equipment, and tennis courts is a short bike ride away.

Whether you're ready to be active or to relax, set to shop or explore the Outerbanks’ rich history and nature, Float On is ready for you and your family and friends, to make memories!

About the host

Hosted by Joshua Evans

Host profile image
We are Virginia natives who have used The Outer Banks as a getaway for many years. When the opportunity came about to purchase our own island escape, we jumped at it. However, our family of four live, learn and work in Norfolk, VA; so we also wanted to open our home to others. We very much enjoy the idea of providing a space for people and families to have experiences and make their own memories.

Why they chose this property

Once your are in Kill Devil Hills you are here! One could continue on about proximity to shops, dining and entertainment, but let's look at it another way. KDH's central location is just minutes after leaving the mainland and the car ride is over. You are now in The Outer Banks of North Carolina - Vacation ready! The already mentioned shops and dining are in fact nearby, even better though, you are positioned to explore further south or north with ease.

Float On is at the beach without being, at the beach. Shake off the sand and immerse yourself into a quiet neighborhood. There is a yard for the dog or for the kids to play in. If kayaking or fishing are more your thing, you are just a few minutes walk from The Albemarle Sound. There is even a spacious public boat ramp a few minutes up Bay Drive. Get your feet wet, see the sun set. In this part of The Outer Banks it's more than just about the ocean.
