Close to Beach-"The Salty Soul",Bring Your Flip Flops Beach Cottage, circa 2022

The Salty Soul is a cozy, bright, and cheerfully decorated cottage in the heart of the Outer Banks. Nestled between the highway (US 158) and beach road (NC 12) in Kill Devil Hills at MP 10, it is conveniently located to restaurants, shopping, mini golf, and more. Our cottage even backs up to Kill Devil Grill--one of the best restaurants on the beach!

Getting to the beach is easy with two nearby accesses...one at Lake Drive a little north, and a parking access at Eighth Street just a little south (still walkable, though). Or walk a footpath north of the cottage... about a 3 minute walk.

The Salty Soul is perfect for a couples retreat, small family, or a quiet friends weekend. The lower level (and entry area) of the cottage has a convenient heated and cooled room with washer and dryer, utility sink, extra refrigerator, and a private toilet. Upstairs features an open living room with a cozy deck overlooking a large fenced in backyard, kitchen & dining area, as well as a large ensuite bedroom that has a king size bed and a bathroom with double sinks, toilet, and a tub shower combo.

A queen size bed in a spacious room is on the top floor. Working space is available with desk and chair. This bedroom has a large full bathroom. Off this 2nd bedroom is a walk-through closet leading to the 3rd room that has the full size bed in it and a nightstand with light. Great for the snorer in the family or someone wanting privacy. This small quaint room is best suited for children or 1 adult.
Note: This 3rd room has no windows and accesses the bathroom through the 2nd bedroom.

The outdoor space is spacious under the house, on the back deck, or in the fenced in yard area. You can enjoy eating outside, playing corn hole, or grilling out on the gas grill. After a long day at the beach, you can rinse off in the outdoor shower and relax by the fire pit with a cold drink in hand!

Things to note:
- You must be 26 or older to rent the home
- We have irrigation in the front and back yard, so please do not park on the grass
- We DO NOT allow pets, so please do not ask or bring one to the cottage
- Access is given via a key box in the outdoor shower
- Property backs up to a small local restaurant's parking lot, but it closes early--just worth a mention
- Smart Roku TV’s in living room, king bedroom and queen bedroom. You must use your own logins, and are all set to guest mode, No Cable available
- Wireless internet provided, but speed cannot be guaranteed as we live on an island and it can sometimes be intermittent
- Linens and towels are provided
- Beach Towels are not provided, so you will need to bring your own
- We do not offer beach equipment, but we are a few steps away from Ocean Atlantic Rentals and they have everything you may need for your stay
- Property has outdoor ONLY security cameras under carport and on back deck

A Great Family Getaway Convenient to Beach, Restaurants. Shopping & Attractions

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Salty Soul. It was convenient to everything in a nice neighborhood. We were within walking distance of restaurants and the beach. Our daughter snd her friend moved the upstairs area that gave them private space as young adults. It was nicely furnished. We wanted a place that we could enjoy and feel comfortable in. The owner pays attention to details, takes pride in providing a nice place and wants guests to enjoy their stay.
