Cottage vacation rentals in Avon

Wow, what a beautiful place and such a lovely host. She answered every question I had quickly and with kindness. The house had so many fun things to do inside and all my guests had no complaints of comfort. The view was gorgeous and the walk to the beach is unbeatable.

Another fantastic Spring Break at the Best Box! The nicest, cleanest, most relaxing rental we’ve ever found. Didn’t think the property could be any better than it was last year, but the owners have managed to make many creative and thoughtful upgrades. Enjoyed days at the beach, days on the sound, chartered a boat for fishing, ate tons of seafood, and saw the best sunsets right from the deck. Literally took advantage of everything in this house - from crabbing to fishing to baggo to flying kites to playing board games to darts and foosball. Oh and kayaking, relaxing in the hammock, and tubing, too.

We had an amazing time perfect place for pets and some relaxing!

Loved my stay !!! Beds were super comfy! And the house was super nice with a 10 min walk to the beach !

this is our fourth stay at Pelican Point and we absolutely love being here. It's a unique property with character, natural beauty, outstanding sunsets and easy access to the ocean. Every night we went out for silent sunset viewings from the bungalow porch or the dock and enjoyed the evening bird life flying overhead, the calls, and the beautiful clouds and colors as the sun sunk into the Pamlico Sound . The spacious kitchen had everything we needed and we had many wonderful meals. Beds are comfy, and loved being able to spread out between two residences. The pool and hottub were great options since it was a bit cold for swimming in early May. Communication with Dawn was quick and seamless if you had a questions for her! A plus vacation rental all around!

We had a great stay! It was awesome being so close to the beach. The provided beach chairs were really nice, but make sure to bring your own umbrella or tent. We loved sitting on the porch and taking in the view over the dunes. The dumbwaiter was super helpful for getting groceries and bags upstairs. Also, the place was very clean. All in all, a great week and we’d definitely come back!

Dare Dream was just as pictured on the photos. The kitchen was amazing and incredibly well stocked, and the beds were comfortable. The proximity to the beach was perfect for us and just what we were looking for.

Great place to stay! Clean house, lots of places to eat & things to do within a short drive, peaceful location, easy check-in & check-out, and quick responses to questions about the accommodations. Highly recommend!

We had a very pleasant stay at Amy’s home nestled in a very quiet and serene sound side neighborhood. We found Just Enough to be more than enough for 2 and a dog! Loved the screened porch and spent almost every evening out there just relaxing and watching the storms on rain days. We were a very short drive to some really great restaurants- loved the sandwiches from Pamlico Deli and steamed shrimp from Tavern 12! Great nearby coffee shops, gift shops, and bakeries (get an Apple Ugly from Orange Blossom!). The jeep rental spot is one road over so that was convenient for our beach off-roading day. For one first time visitor (2 if you count the dog), and one returning to OBX after many years, we couldn’t have been happier with our choice to stay down in Frisco at Just Enough. Highly recommend this rental and we would absolutely return on a future visit to the Outer Banks. Thank you for everything!

We had a great birthday weekend at the Evening Star! We enjoyed taking the paddle boat out on the canal with our dog for the first time- it was an unforgettable experience. It was great to be able to relax in the chairs on the dock in the mornings. The location was great and we enjoyed the short walk to the Dairy Queen and to the beach access. Gisa was a great host and provided a plethora of helpful information and suggestions for our stay! She was also very responsive to our requests for flexible check-in and check-out times. We are very much looking forward to staying at the Evening Star again soon!

The house is nice and we were very comfortable. Plenty of space for two families with kids and pets. The pool is big and the deck is nice with several spots to sit and relax. The beach is huge in this part of North Avon and is rare these days in the outer banks. Highly recommend and would stay here again. No issues

I hate to gush about Margot's home, I need to make sure it stays available when we return! When I say the pictures dont do this place juatice, I'm not exaggerating. The entire upstairs is just one LARGE open space. Kitchen with everything you could possibly need. An amazing reading nook with a view of the ocean. Two porches to see the ocean from and a porch to see the sound off the back! And the master bedroom has an amazing screened in porch that's oceanview. I love that the steps go directly to the enclosed dog lot so you can let your guys out safely. The super quick walk across the road and over the dune couldn't have been easier for the best beach access and the neighborhood is so very private and quiet. I cannot say enough about the communication with Margot being so quick and positive and she has the best housekeeper on the island for sure.

Christine was great to work with. This was our fourth year renting this place and we love it! The place ir perfect and even has a boat dock for keeping the boat! We'll be back!

We really enjoyed our stay. Our favorite space was the upstairs where the was plenty of room to stretch out, find a nook, play games, cook and view the ocean.

This was our first time staying this close to the beach and we had an amazing time! The first day we walked to the beach and it was a bit hot so the rest of the week we got bikes because there’s no parking! Once we got the bikes we had a great time going to restaurants and stores! The seafood was also beautiful! We went to sunrise seafood market everyday to grab stuff to cook at home! This house had all the basic cooking supplies but you definitely have to buy/bring stuff like trash bags and dish soap. They did have pet cleaning supplies under the sink! The hot water never seems to run out which was amazing but the pressure wasn’t the best. Overall we had a great stay and this house is perfect for all small group and their pets! The yard is pretty big!! Just watch out for the mosquitoes i dont know if it was because the time of year or just the area but we got eaten alive and so did our fur babies! So bring bug spray and make sure your dogs are up to date on heartworm prevention!

Crabby Pad was beautiful. We kept the windows open and enjoyed the breeze. We fished off the dock at night, caught a blue crab. Little tricky to find but once you do it's a beautiful little place. Will definitely visit again!

Amy’s place was absolutely beautiful! It looked just like the pictures and the location was perfect! I would highly recommend staying here! Amy is also a fabulous host and very responsive. Could not have asked for a better stay!

We enjoyed the stay! It was close to the beach and the house was very nice. It had all that we needed.

had an awesome week In obx even though it rained almost all week. the hosts were very nice and very responsive.

My friends and I stayed in Cheryl’s home for a post graduation trip. We loved our time in Salvo and the house offered everything we could need and more. Cheryl is very responsive and her property manager Donna was there if we needed anything. The house comfortably fit 9 people and the kitchen was well supplied with dishes. The beach was a short walk away and the town of Salvo is quiet and cute. I would recommend Cheryl’s house if you’re looking for a quiet get away.

We enjoyed our stay! Everything was great from location, cleanliness and ease of checking in and out. Dylan was a great host and we will return!

My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary. Host was very flexible and allowed us to make last minute changes to our accommodations.

Tim was very responsive and gave clear instructions, House was as described with ample parking and at a great location (you can walk 100 yards and be on the beach). We were in town surf fishing and from the driveway to The Point was 10 minutes with options for food, tackle, bait etc. between the two. I have rented from Tim before and I will again, it has been seamless every time.
