Cozy beach house
I booked this house as a graduation gift for my daughter and her friends. They loved it. The house was so cozy and just a short walk from the beach. I would definitely stay here again.

OBX Stay
We enjoyed our stay in this well appointed home. The owners have been very generous, providing a well stocked kitchen. They also provide toys, chairs, and beach buggy for going to the beach. Relaxing outside under the cottage or on 1 of 2 decks gives ample space for more fun outdoors. I highly recommend you consider this home for your vacation.

Great Outer Banks house!
This house was one of the best beach houses we have ever stayed in - and we have stayed in a lot! It gets an A+ for cleanliness, organization and providing just what you need for a beach get away. So many times people advertise things and you get there and they are in disrepair, old, etc but the beach buggy and toys were were great, the grill was clean, outside shower was so nice, basics stocked in the kithen, and of course the inside was beautiful! Beach access was convenient as was the grocery store and Duck Donuts (plan ahead - its crowded!) Highly recommend!!

About the host

Hosted by Jeanne Borkowski

Host profile image
The Borkowski's first came to the Outer Banks over 30 years ago to go fishing out of Hatteras, and have been coming back ever since. Their time in the Outer Banks has always been memorable and pleasurable, and in 2005, they fulfilled a long held dream of owning a home at the beach.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location. In the heart of Kill Devil Hills, we are close to everything! We are 430 yards to the Third Street Beach access, an easy 5 minute walk. We love having the pond in the back, and we enjoy feeding the turtles and watching them sun themselves on the bank. If you are lucky, you may see several different species of frogs and lizards, and a turtle may come up and lay her eggs in our yard while croaking bullfrogs lull you to sleep at night

What makes this property unique

Our home's unique open floor plan, central location, and proximity to the beach made it irresistible. The dead end street and lifeguarded beach were important to us as our daughter was 8 years old at the time. She would call it the "Outer Banks House" and eventually shortened it to "Outer House", hence the name.
