Great OBX location

Great home in a great location. We really enjoyed our family stay in this home. House was clean, beds were comfortable, and kitchen was well equipped. Location was quiet and allowed us to explore everything from Corolla to Hatteras with reasonable drives. Communication with the host was quick and thorough. I would highly recommend the home.

Great house to disconnect

Great house and the views are spectacular. There are high dunes in order to access the beach, so if you have anyone with disabilities, it will be very hard for them to go down to the beach. Close to a Food Lion supermarket. The manager/owner was great and shared many options to go and visit. He responded promptly. Overall, great house to relax and disconnect.

Fabulous View & Location

The view is incredible! It was nice to wake up and hear the waves. Nice, large deck and furniture to sit on while you relax to the waves and view. Saw gorgeous sunrises as well as a moonrise one evening! Good location between Graveyard of the Atlantic museum and Cape Hatteras to the south and Nags Head and Kitty Hawk to the north. Owners were very responsive when we had questions. Highly recommended!

Friends OBX getaway! April 2025

Five ladies enjoyed a comfortable 6 day stay. All communication with the owners was very prompt and helpful. The house was very clean and stocked with essentials to host a bigger party than we even had. Plenty of room to be all together to share time, as well as individual space when desired. Washer and dryer is super handy. Thank you.We enjoyed the sunrise over the water each morning. Great opportunity to look for shells and creatures washed up on the beach. The beach erosion has caused the beach access to have a steep drop-off. Be prepared for a sandy climb. There are plenty of beach access points for the ocean or the sound if the house access isn't for you. Be prepared for many stairs in the house. The climb is good for exercise, but challenging when carrying multiple coolers and luggage up. Teamwork is great. :)The house location is great. Easy trip to Hatteras Lighthouse (under construction), The Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum, ferry to Ocracoke, and The Apple Blossom, among many others. Kill Devil Hills, Nags Head, and Corolla are fun places to visit. Avon is best for a quiet southern OBX place to stay.

Beautiful views!

This house has the most beautiful views of the ocean from the living area and patio. It is a very easy walk to the beach which was clean and enjoyable for the kids. The hosts did a great job of providing chairs, sand toys, and boogie boards. As expected for the area, the waves are huge so less actual swimming took place, but for young kids the beach and playing in shallow areas is perfect for what we wanted. The outdoor shower was super handy. We greatly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend if you want a relaxing atmosphere with a beautiful view.

Perfect GETAWAY

We went to OBX for Christmas week for a peaceful and romantic getaway. We wanted plenty of room and a well equipped kitchen. We were not disappointed. Everything we needed to make prime rib and steaks and so many other great things was provided for us. The house is beautiful and when you step into the main living area you feel like you are home. The house was immaculate, the furnishings are comfortable and stylish and there are cozy spots everywhere. This was one of the best trips we’ve ever taken. We would go back in a heart beat. We took a lot of stuff with us in case we needed it and ended up leaving it in the car because the house was so well stocked. Owners are very responsive and helpful. Loved it!!!

Family Beach Week

Beautiful, clean, welcoming beach home. This is a home that is owned and decorated by people who love the beach. It has a warmth and a personality that makes it truly a great vibe for a stay at the beach. Also, the proximity to the beach and surf view is the best we've ever had. Also, kitchen fully equipped, as attested by the two professional chefs who are our family members. To be absolutely perfect, the house could add some high outdoor deck chairs so that the view of the ocean would be unobstructed by the deck railing.

Great beach house!

Booking was super easy and communication was friendly. The house was clean, comfortable, well stocked with everything we needed, and conveniently close to the grocery store. The ocean along this particular stretch of beach would be a little rough for young kids to play in but was fine for our group of adults. We had a great time and look forward to a return trip.

Get lost in the tranquility

Loved staying @ the Beach House! The views from the living room were absolutely stunning, I could sit there all day and get lost in the tranquility of the ocean. The house was so clean & spacious. We are a family of five, with teenage/adult children and everyone had more than enough personal space. Loved having a stocked kitchen and also an outside area that had everything you needed from surf boards to chairs/umbrellas. Very peaceful section of the beach, not crowded at all! Karl was extremely helpful answering any questions/concerns we might have had. Food lion less Than quarter mile away so getting groceries was simple . Added bonus of a community pool, which my husband loved for early morning laps. Kids and I were sad when we had to leave, we will miss the views and the great memories made in Avon this summer.

Corolla Converts

Every time a normal-size beach house gets knocked down on the northern OBX (so a house 3x as big can be built), another family like ours decides it's worth the extra 90-min drive to stay on Hatteras. I'd tell you how great this place is, but then you'd come here too and we'd have to go all the way to Ocracoke instead.

Amazing beach house

This is a spectacular beach house in the outer banks. We had an absolutely wonderful time staying here for six days. The views are spectacular and we all had some great memories made of the sunrise and sunset every single day along with walks on the beach. All of the bedrooms, the living room, and the grade room Were immaculately clean. The kitchen was fully stocked with all of the silverware, pots and pans, and a full pantry. We were three families, and all of us enjoyed staying here. Every single amenity that Won could ask for was available. The hosts were incredible and all of the instructions for check-in, and check out and for our stay Were available well in advance. This place is definitely one for the memories and we will definitely look forward to coming back here after year.

About the host

Hosted by Karl and Stacy

Host profile image
This is the first house we've ever owned, and we're delighted to share it. We're a beachy family who rent a beach house for almost every vacation, and know the magic of sun and salt air. There's no other place like the Outer Banks -- it's how you picture the beach you read about in books, but that seems to exist no where else.

Why they chose this property

For two decades, this house was that rare thing in Avon: a lovingly cared-for beachfront private home, never offered for rent. We have updated and furnished it to make the most of the open plan top floor, with an airy coastal aesthetic that says: Enjoy this. You're on vacation.

What makes this property unique

The house was built atop a hillock that places it in a realm of its own, on a street with only four other properties. The furnishings are new, the remodeling fresh. Even the kitchen is spacious. Reach the beach either from the ground floor, or by the wooden staircases that connect the decks with the beach walkway, by way of the outdoor shower.

A heads up that the path to the beach is entirely sand, and crosses two dunes -- which may be a challenge for those with mobility issues.
