Ocean VIEWs, NEW, Direct Access, CLEAN + EZ Cart
Great home with great spaces, particularly the top floor with open kitchen/living room with connected deck offering ocean sounds and views. It was a quick walk to the beach as well as Avalon Pier and Awful Arthur's. It was a perfect getaway for a collection of fathers and sons!

NEW* Ohana Cottage - 4 bedroom home KDH
Proactive, easy to communicate with, easy to get in and as described. We had a group of 7, a 4 month old and 2 dogs with plenty of room. The backyard was great for relaxing in the hammock and the dogs could play. We had 3 vehicles ( 2 SUVs and a truck) that easily fit in the driveway. Convent to shopping. We had a great time thanks to a great house and host

(new) Anchors Away - Waterfront Home
We had a great stay! The dock views were incredible, house was clean, beds were super comfortable and kitchen was so tidy, organized and had everything we needed. We loved the ice maker and coffee station. It was a pit stop for us on a family road trip so we really enjoyed the serenity and ease of this stay: host were super responsive and views unbeatable! Great restaurants and visiting the Wright brothers monument and that little hike made for a lovely afternoon and counted as an educational day for the kiddos as well!! They also enjoyed the fooseball table. Definitely hit the Wright Brothers Museum - Fascinating!

Pets Allowed and Hot Tub at Remember Bark When!
Ariana’s home was a perfect getaway! Our dog, Bud E, absolutely loved the back yard and how quiet the neighbourhood was. Enough space to get all his puppy zoomies out after a long car ride. The home offered a lot of activities to do in the house and around it. The jacuzzi was the perfect way to end the night after a short walk from the beach. Definitely would recommend to anyone going to the OBX that is bringing their dog.

Salty Paws-Walk to beach/Fenced Yard/Pet Friendly
We had a fantastic stay at Gia’s Airbnb! The place was spotless and exactly as described in the listing. It had all the amenities we needed, making our stay super comfortable. The location was perfect—just a short walk to beach, a charming coffee shop, and a grocery store. Everything was convenient and well thought out. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely stay here again!

Soundside Sunshine KDH
We had a great time at Carrie's place. Her home was clean, spacious and loved the gated backyard! The home is in a great location and we look forward to hopefully being able to book her place again!

Walk to Beach or Sound*Dog Friendly*Fenced Yard
Absolutely top notch. The master bed was BLISS...jacuzzi tub in the master...my fiancee took a bath every day...I havent seen him take a bath in 5 years..lol. The kitchen had everything you need, beautiful large fridge with a great ice maker... 5 minute walk to the beach, and the back deck with the grill and seating was wonderful... House is plenty big enough for a very large family, and 2 small ones no problem. Fenced yard for pets...no walking them...just let them out the back! Besy stay ever with memories we wont forget! Thanks Annette and Greg!

Newly remodeled! Beachside, near shops, dogs ok
We absolutely loved our stay at this wonderful Airbnb! The property was immaculately clean and beautifully maintained, with everything we needed for a comfortable vacation. The peaceful, quiet location made it easy to relax after busy days exploring OBX. The host truly thought of everything - the kitchen was fully equipped, there were plenty of fresh towels, and all the amenities worked perfectly. Communication with the host was outstanding. They responded immediately to all our questions. We wouldn't hesitate to book here again on our next Outer Banks trip and will definitely recommend this place to friends. Five stars all around!
Pet-friendly home rentals with a pool

Bayfront With Dock-Bring Your Boat-Pool-Hot Tub!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The host, Nicki, was wonderful to work with. She was very informative, helpful and quick to respond with any questions that we had. The home and surroundings were beautiful. The house was extremely clean, open and inviting and the views from the property and grounds were absolutely stunning. We will definitely consider future stays with Nicki and even possibly at this home again in the future.

Pool & hot tub, walk to beach/golf; dog friendly
The house is just as listed. Great location and all the amenities that you need. A little cold for the pool but enjoyed the top floor kitchen and living area. Decks made the mornings a great start. A very peaceful location and would book again without any hesitation.

Fenced backyard, private pool, hottub, volleyball
We chose this home because it is dog friendly with a big fenced back yard. It is right across from the ocean. it was our second time staying here and we will probably go back again.

Ocean view, near beach! Large pool/new hot tub
Great space. Loved the heated pool and hot tub. Made some of the chilly weather feel amazing. Place was great and easy access to everything!

A House With No Name, Nags Head NC, Outer Banks
Shawn was a good host and answered all my questions very fast and gave us accommodations. The place was very clean, perfect for our family and our dog! We’ll definitely be coming back soon!

The Green Room OBX *Pet Friendly*
Great place to stay for a peaceful getaway! Shelli does an excellent job of making you feel right at home! The place was so clean and cozy! It was just a short walk to the beach and she provided us with a wagon, chairs, coolers, paddle boards, boogie boards, and even towels! Everything you need for a vacation! This was the perfect stay for me, my fiancé, and our doggie! She even provided dog bowls and treats! Such a sweet and thoughtful host!

Salty As A Beach - Pet Friendly with Hot Tub/Pool
We enjoyed our 5 night stay. Bevin communicates very clearly and quickly. It was nice to have some snacks and water bottles provided as we arrived very late. The hot tub was nice (we may have to get one!). We did not cook while we were there, but did a load of laundry and it was nice to have a few pods provided. We walked a lot, but you do have to cross a busy road to get to the beach. The showers felt small and could use a curved shower rod to make them feel bigger. There is no manual in the unit with instructions, wifi password, etc and so we had to ask several questions, but always got an answer. Loved our time in the outer banks!!

Pool Open for the season, 4BR, 3BA House 1Acre
Jeff and Sue's place was perfect for us, 8 adults and my elderly dog. It had plenty of rooms, bathrooms, TVs and even a piano! One of the bedrooms is actually a mother-in-law apartment with a small functional kitchen. The bed and the sheets were so comfy! It was all nice and clean. It is located in a low key, quiet residential neighborhood. Our stay was pleasant. Our hosts were very responsive. It was as described and in the pictures. Yes, I would stay there again. Thanks Jeff and Sue!

Cozy 2 bedroom beach cottage — Dogs Welcome!
We had a wonderful peaceful break from life in kitty hawk. The cottage was clean and quiet and well provisioned for a home. The area was close (less than 5 minute drive) to the beach. It was convenient to restaurants, parks and shopping. A great place for a get away.

Live Oak Cottage - 'tiny house' / walk to beach
Wonderful little cottage for a quick getaway. Beach is short walking distance and less people than public n beaches. the surrounding restaurants are worth it when seeking out fine dining. Recommend the paper canoe. :)

Islander Way Couples Oceanside Retreat - Dogs OK
Reese and Cayce were terrific hosts. Their home was exactly what we needed for a relaxing beach getaway. My wife and I brought our bikes and were able to easily ride to a number of local restaurants recommended by the host. Thank you again!

Goldie Sands Guest Suite
We loved this little place! Reasonable rates since we are retired and on limited income. We could have our little doggies with us. Lots of linens. Jason responded to any inquiries in lots of time! Highly recommend this little place and hope to go back this summer.

Mom's/Nags Head Woods/Jockey Ridge/No pet fee.
We always love staying here when we come to the outer banks. We love the quiet neighborhood, the back deck and the apartment. It’s always clean and welcoming, the couch and bed are so comfortable. A perfect place to unwind and relax after a long day at the beach. Can’t wait for our next stay!

A Modern & Homely Guest Suite in the heart of KDH
Great spot. Quiet for winding down for the night. Yet close enough to the bright spots of OBX - beach, restaurants, etc. Would definitely return.

Welcome to our pet-friendly place with a hot tub!
Will definitely stay here again! Everything was perfect. Clean and comfortable. Had clean towels, toiletry items, coffee for coffee maker, washer/dryer…everything we needed! We loved having the hot tub right there to use as well. Place looked just like the pictures. Host was very proactive and made sure we knew she was a call or text away if we needed anything. 5 stars all the way around!

Pet Friendly | Soundside Cottage MP 6
The house was a perfect setup for dogs with doggy gates, fenced backyard, and a closed off car port area to safely get the dogs from the house to the backyard. Appreciated how clean the place was. Everything as described in the description and photos!
