This house has the feel of a vintage Outer Banks beach house, which we loved, with the modern convenience (newly renovated shower and bathroom, WiFi). The location is very convenient to the Avalon Pier beach access. Easy walking distance to Awful Arthur’s restaurant and beach shop. We stayed here with family for Thanksgiving break and had a wonderful time.

Nicely appointed. Very clean and comfortable. Very near the beach. We were there in winter, so am assuming the atmosphere is quite different in the peak of tourist season.

The house was perfect for us. There was a little too much decoration for little hands, but everything was easily accessible and it worked great. There were a lot of kitchen supplies and extra blankets and pillows since the first night of our stay was very cold. We also loved the sand pit under the house with the hammocks. In warm weather this would be completely ideal! Check in was easy, and the instructions were so clear and thorough. The host has been responsive after accidentally leaving something behind as well.

Location perfect

We usual stay in Corolla when we visit but decided to be closer to town on this visit. The location was perfect for restaurants and shopping. Also the beach access was literally right around the corner with a small store just across from it for beverages. The house was very cozy and perfect for 4 adults.

While not on the beach, the location of this house was the next best option. Loved the updated bath and even though there is only one and a half baths inside the home, the outside shower was good for the boys (LOL). The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, appliances, and gadgets. Only item I would add is a fly swatter :)

Love the Hammock Cottage

We had a wonderful stay. The cottage is lovely and even nicer in person than the pictures depicted. My daughter loved having her own room to hang in (the office). The shower is amazing. All beds were comfortable and the living furniture was also very nice and comfy. The screened in porch was a huge bonus for us with the perfect temps we had while there. The location is super close to the beach.

Amazing Rental!!

The house was perfect! Much bigger than expected with plenty of parking and amenities to stay entertained. The kitchen is gorgeous and the outside deck is beautiful. Location is close to many stores and only a short walk to the beach. Would definitely recommend this place for an OBX visit!

Obx 2024 @ the Hammock Cottage

We had a great stay at the Hammock Cottage. It was well equipped with everything we needed and more. I highly recommend this rental to anyone on a small family vacay. It was locates in a great area. Short walks to the beach and fishing pier. We would love to stay again sometime its available. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us! From the Kuh family from West Virginia!!

Everything was excellent, except the mattress falling through the bed the first night. Only thing I would change is there could be more room for groceries and less dishes in the cabinets. Being that there is a dishwasher I can’t imagine needing so many.

We used to stay at Hammock Cottage from 2010-2013. We really love the house and coziness of Hammock Cottage to the beach and the restaurants. The house was just as we remembered it. My only issue was the floors were very dirty. I had to buy a Swiffer mop and used an entire bottle of cleaner and 8 cleaning pads to clean the floors, as a 13 month old that is a crawler was with us. We really enjoyed the corn hole game in the car port and used the board games at night. Scrabble was fun to play. We also enjoyed the screened in porch and the outdoor shower was great so we were not taking sand into the house. Our dog Buster loved being with us and we are very happy Hammock Cottage now allows dogs. We enjoyed our stay so much we already booked for 2 weeks next year because we will both be retired and enjoy OBX and Hammock Cottage.
