About this property

The Cottonwood - KDH MP 5, 265 Yards to Beach, Oceanside, Year Round Flex Stays

Escape to the Outer Banks and unwind at The Cottonwood. This beautifully renovated oceanside retreat is ideal for a small family getaway or a cozy romantic escape. Located in the heart of Kill Devil Hills, the home blends comfortable furnishings, coastal décor, and modern conveniences to create a welcoming place to unwind and recharge.

Start your mornings with coffee on the deck, then take an easy stroll to the beach for sun-soaked days, shell hunting, swimming, or long shoreline walks. After a day in the sand, rinse off in the outdoor shower and relax in the hammock while listening to your favorite music or firing up the grill for a casual evening at home.

When you'd rather skip cooking, Chili Peppers Restaurant is just steps away and offers convenient dining and late-night options. You'll also be minutes from local favorites, shopping, mini golf, fishing piers, water sports, bike paths, and iconic Outer Banks attractions like Wright Brothers National Memorial and Jockey's Ridge.

The Cottonwood is perfect for short stays or extended visits, and weekday stays are a great way to enjoy the Outer Banks with lighter traffic and a more laid-back pace.

The Cottonwood was a very comfortable home - it was clean and uncluttered and had everything we needed for our short stay. When it says short walk, it does not exaggerate - you can see the beach access from the house. The restaurant across the street was not an issue at all. My only suggestion is that it would be nice to have had a broom to sweep up each day.

Very Clean and Cozy

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very quaint and cozy property. When we first walked in it smelled clean and wonderful. Perfectly sized for our family with great upgraded amenities. Walking distance to the beach and restaurants, matter of fact there is a restaurant literally across the street. Even though the restaurant was close, we never had any issues with noise levels nor rowdiness from it.Only negatives we had were that the sprinklers were on around 5pm when we arrived and daily, which meant that the area was wet and we weren't able to use the wonderful hammock during that time. There also weren't really any comfortable seating on the upstairs deck. There is a huge picnic table which is too big for the area and not very comfortable to sit at while trying to enjoy the wonderful and huge deck space.
