Relaxing Getaway

We had the most incredible time at Robyn’s Nest. Two weeks of relaxation and unplugged family time. First week was really beach friendly with calm water and hot weather. Second week was cool weather and perfect for hot tubbing and reading. The house was great for 6 young adults and two tired parents who needed a break. Kevin was accommodating and responsive and a fantastic host. Highly recommend for a family getaway.

Awesome stay! Close to many attractions

Loved staying at birds nest. It’s in a great location - near to beach, wild horse tours, water sports, light house! The private pool and spa were clean an enjoyable. The only qualm I had was that the kitchen smelled of fish and we had to use a room freshener.

We just had the most amazing vacation at Robyn’s Nest — it truly felt like a home away from home. Kevin was such a thoughtful and welcoming host, and the house had absolutely everything we could have needed and more. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the essentials — pots, pans, utensils, Tupperware, and even small appliances — making it easy to enjoy meals together as a family.The house was spotless, beautifully maintained, and incredibly comfortable for all 9 of us. After long days at the beach, the pool and hot tub were the perfect way to relax and unwind. And speaking of the beach — the access was just one house away, and the short walk made it effortless to enjoy the sand and surf whenever we wanted.We truly loved every moment of our stay and are already dreaming of coming back. Thank you so much, Kevin, for your incredible hospitality and for sharing this wonderful home with us!

First Family Vacation in Years

We had a wonderful experience at the property. The neighborhood is quiet and family oriented. Just a short walk to the beach on a very nice public walkway. The beach offered lots of shells to find and was clean. We had unseasonably cool weather but that’s the luck of the draw. Our entire family had a wonderful stay!

Great Stay!

Great house, great amenities, great location! Pool was wonderful and clean with lots of chairs in the shade. Beach was a convenient walk away. Rooms were comfortable. The house came with so many extra little things that helped our stay; like a pack and play crib, tons of blankets, crayons, pool/beach toys, and a bunch of beach chairs. Even the pool guys that came halfway through the week to clean were quick, efficient, and friendly. Only issue is the walls are thin, we could hear people in the kitchen from the bedrooms downstairs.

About the host

Hosted by Kevin Bupp 717.756.0200 (Cell)

Host profile image
We currently live in a small town outside of Harrisburg, PA. We raised our three children in this area and have vacationed on the Outer Banks for nearly 30 years. We were attracted to the North Carolina beaches because of the scenic beauty, family friendly environment, clean beaches and light crowds.

Why they chose this property

We have vacationed on the Outer Banks for nearly 30 years. After staying in several locations prior to purchasing our home we selected Whalehead because of the large private lots. Due to the expensive land acquisition costs most communities have very small lot sizes and the homes are very close to each other. In Whalehead most lots are approximately 1/2 acre in size. This provides more spacious accommodations and fewer people crowding the beaches.

What makes this property unique

Clean beaches, scenic views, family friendly environment and non-crowded beaches. Close to the historic lighthouse. Enjoy all the amenities the ocean and the sound offer - surfing, beach combing, walks, wild horse watching, driving on the beach, kayaking, fishing and much, much more.
