This cottage was perfect for my family’s 5 night stay. Very clean, great location and outdoor space, plus an easy walk to the beach. Cottage was well stocked with everything we could possibly need and we especially loved having the beach cart and chairs to take to the beach. Lauralee provided lots of helpful info, great recommendations, and we didn’t have any problems at all during our stay. We had a great vacation and would definitely stay here again!

Oasis away from home

This was our first trip to the Outer Banks. It did not disappoint. The Blue Oasis was a home away from home with everything we could possibly need. The walk to the beach was easy and also a short walk to many great restaurants and attractions. It was the perfect way to spend our Independence Day.

We had a wonderful stay in this cozy cottage. Each bedroom had comfortable beds and beautiful decor. Plenty of space for everyone to enjoy themselves. The kitchen has all the cooking items you may need. The cottage is just a short walk to the beach, and you can also relax in the hot tub out back. There is a Target within walking distance as well if you forget anything. Everything about this place is perfect. We would definitely stay here again. We were lucky to have found it!

We really enjoyed our stay at Blue Oasis! We haven’t traveled as a family in several years and this spot perfectly fit the bill. The amenities were excellent and the location can’t be beat. Short walk to the beach and all of the KDH/OBX attractions (restaurants, shopping, etc.) are just a short drive away. Oh, and our adult children really enjoyed the “kiddie” pool (big enough for 6 adults to hang out in) and hot tub in the backyard. And the beach chairs, wagon and tent in the storage shed were very useful for the beach. We had a blast and would definitely consider coming back in the future. You won’t be disappointed!

My family and I spent a week at the property and had a great time! The kiddie pool was a huge hit for my grandson! The house was located close to so many things, Target, WaWa, Awful Arthur’s! Short walk to the beach and great amenities! Would definitely stay here again! Also, I forgot a load of laundry in the dryer, the owners are sending my clothes bag via the mail. Great customer service and a great property!

OBX Vacation

Blue Oasis was as advertised - a clean and cute house close to the beach and other activities. We enjoyed our brief stay in the OBX area. Often proximity to beaches bring noise yet this neighborhood was great. Thankful to Lauralee for making this a relaxing and activity-filled stay for us.

Our stay at Blue Oasis was all we expected with excellent accommodations, a well maintained home, and a wealth of amenities to make our stay a 5-star experience.

Our family has stayed at Blue Oasis two years ago and we were delighted to be able to return in June 2025. With the location close to the beach and so many community activities and facilities nearby, it was the best place to spend our vacation week. In addition to the delightful children's pool, the newly added hot tub was a great addition. The enclosed back yard was well maintained with actual grass and was a wonderful play space for the grandchildren and all of us. The fire pit, hammock, and the shed of beach toys were wonderful to have available. The interior rooms were all comfortable and and just right for our beach vacation experience. We hope to return again next summer. The grandkids are already planning for it!

Wonderful rental with amazing backyard!

This rental was perfect for our girls getaway, the Hardings have put so much time and thought into providing a home away from home. The layout of the house is perfect and is much more spacious than the pictures show. I loved the cozy backyard, the decor, very quiet area, and of course the beach. Can't wait to go back 🌴🌺

About the host

Hosted by Lauralee Harding

Host profile image
The Blue Oasis is owned by Dennis & Lauralee, who have 4 beautiful children. We are entrepreneurs from northern Virginia, who have businesses in real estate investing, home building , HVAC contracting, and short term vacation rentals. We also homeschool our children and enjoy traveling and spending lots of time outdoors.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this home only partially finished in 2012, renovated it, and opened it to guests in 2013. We love this home because of its close proximity to the beach, its location on a quiet street, in a safe, family-friendly neighborhood with nearby residential cops keeping an eye out for the community's safety and well-being. We have been bringing our family here for multiple yearly trips since our children were born. They have grown up making memories in this house, and it is really important to us to help other families make special memories here as well. We have all fallen head over heels for the Outer Banks area. One reason we chose this house was because of the location to all the OBX has to offer. We are not only within walking distance to the beach but also close to shopping, many restaurants, and popular sightseeing destinations. It is in a quiet neighborhood where we feel safe and secure with our family. Having this home has given us a unique opportunity to practice hospitality and have a wonderful, cozy, smoke-free vacation getaway for our family and friends, year after year.

What makes this property unique

This cozy cottage is unique because it is on the ground level with no step access. The downstairs sleeps 4 and is completely equipped with everything you need with no stairs required. We offer a really awesome, fenced-in, spacious backyard entertainment space, complete with a BRAND NEW hot tub, an outdoor sectional sofa, a NEW Blackstone Culinary Griddle, picnic table, above-ground, fenced-in children's pool (9' in diameter and 28" tall at water line), fire pit, hammock, swing, clothesline, a shed with yard and beach equipment, and an outdoor shower stall.
**PLEASE NOTE: Smokers are not allowed either inside or outside the property due to severe allergies of owners and frequent visitors. Non-smoking guests only at this property. Thank you!
