House was great, it was amazing being right on the beach. Our kids loved being right there, it was a 10/10 vacation for them. The house is nicely located near Corolla and the Wright Brothers National Memorial. Just be aware of the early check-out, it’s listed clearly, just an extra mention.

The location is wonderful. You are on the beach with beautiful decks and seating areas. The beach is lovely, especially for walking. The house is nicely appointed. Very comfortable and spacious. We had a few questions that were answered promptly. We loved the proximity to local stores for groceries as we preferred to cook our meals and enjoyed them in the spacious dining room or outside on the many decks. We plan to return again!

About the host

Hosted by Ann Burns

Host profile image
The Burns family is the current owner of this wonderful beachfront property. Originally house was built in the 1950's, the current owner's family purchased the property in 1968. In 1985 the year round residence was built and is now being offered as a vacation retreat. Come enjoy our oceanfront home and share the beauty of the Atlantic Ocean panorama.

Why they chose this property

This centrally located private home with stunning oceanfront panorama is just a mile and a half from the Wright Memorial Bridge. When you reach 'the banks' you are moments away from the real start of your vacation! Enjoy the easy access to shopping, restaurants and the many outdoor activities of the outer Banks. Visit Duck (north) or Nags Head, Kill Devil Hills (south) or the tidewater sounds of the Outer Banks (west).

What makes this property unique

This is a great home for families looking to spend quality time with the kids. Short car rides take you to the many local attractions. The beach is just across the deck and down the dune steps! There are also miles of quiet residential streets and pathways thru Southern Shores community to explore on foot or by bike. Our house has a central living area and offers separate sleeping wings on the same floor for maximum privacy. You will love watching the sun rise from the master bedroom!
