About the host

Why they chose this property
Since 2002, our family has been coming in and off-season to the Outer Banks. For a few years, we decided to travel to other places during the summer. But our kids always asked to go back to the Outer Banks because, in their words, it felt like "home."
We purchased the cottage in December 2020 because we fell in love with the location and its accessibility for people of all ages. While we are not natives, we are familiar with the area and can help our guests with tips and advice. Whether you have questions about booking or the about specific features of the cottage, we are ready to help so you can have a memorable vacation.
