About this property

Adorable Beach Box, Very short walk to the beach Access!

  • Cottage, 3 Bedrooms, 2.0 Bathrooms, (Sleeps 6)
    Imagine sitting on your front porch in a rocking chair, listening to the waves crashing on the beach. This lovingly restored and beautifully appointed, 1970’s beach box will transport you back to the good ol’ days while providing you all the amenities you desire in your home away from home in the Outer Banks.

    This three-bedroom, two-bath cottage is located just down the street from beach access and sits only 4 houses away from the ocean. Enjoy a view of the waves from the front porch!

    Equipped with cable, WIFI, flat screen TVs (4), an expansive front porch, outdoor living spaces, a well-stocked kitchen, and a washer and dryer, Tommy Tautog’s has everything you need to enjoy easy beach living except your bathing suits and beach towels! Other linens (bedding, bath towels and washcloths) are provided by an independent vendor – the beds will be made when you arrive!

    While the proximity to the beach is excellent, you’ll also find that this little gem on Walker Street offers easy access to the Avalon Pier and other great local attractions as well.

    Our awesome caretakers, Mike and Lisa, are just as committed to your experience as we are!

    Sorry – no pets or smoking in the cottage.

    Thanks for considering Tommy Tautog’s!

Everything was great during our stay.The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook our meals and the garage was loaded with beach equipment. My family especially loved beach wagon. The only negative thing was the chewed gum left on the nightstand in the twin bedroom.

Amazing OBX location

We really enjoyed this house, the accommodations were perfect for a family of 5. The walk to the beach was very easy--we were close to the Wright Brothers' memorial and Jockey's Ridge. We were only 30 minutes from Roanoke Island and Duck. This is a really great base for exploring the Outer Banks and we would stay here again.

First time in OBX

This was the perfect house and location for our first time in The Outerbanks! We traveled from Syracuse, NY area and loved the easy walkable access to the beach, the property amenities and size. We also loved the proximity to lots of delicious restaurants, ice cream shops and so many other things to explore. We will be staying here for sure when we come back!!

Relaxing trip with great location

This is the 2nd time staying here and we enjoyed it again. Clean house with everything you may need in the kitchen and beach items. The location was fantastic to walk to the beach and the pier. Loved sitting on the porch listening to the waves and while it rained. Great covered outdoor space. Easy check in and out.

Perfect Location!

This cute little cottage was perfect for our family of 4 adults and 1 tween. It was very clean when we arrived and had all the necessities. Well maintained with little thoughtful details like power strips everywhere for easy access and charging options. The location is PERFECT with just a short walk down the street for beach access. We would definitely stay here again!!

great location

We had a wonderful trip. The location couldn't be better. Not only are you so close to the beach but Kill Devil Hills is pretty much in the middle of the Outer Banks. Lots of restuarants and easy trips North to Duck or South to Cape Hatteras. Jason, our Property Manager, always got right back to me and took his time to take career of us. THANK YOU!

Wonderful house just steps from the beach

We enjoyed our vacation in this nice, well equipped house in an awesome neighborhood just steps from the beach! The location was close enough to everything but still felt secluded and provided for the relaxation we were looking for. There was no public parking at the beach entrance nearest the home so there was plenty of open space on the beach. We had a terrific time and would certainly look at this home again for future trips!

This gem was perfect in every way! It had everything you could need and more available for a day at the beach. We enjoyed the quick access to the beach, the outdoor shower, outdoor games, covered porch and so much more! Everything was clean, and comfortable and check in and out was a breeze! Thanks for sharing your beautiful home, can't wait to return!
