July 2025

Our family used to vacation in Corolla, but it had been a while since we visited the OBX. This time, we switched things up and stayed in Kitty Hawk—and we’re so glad we did. The Shake Shack was hands down the best stay we’ve had. The house was spotless, spacious, and perfectly laid out for our crew. The location is ideal— just a short walk to the beach with incredible sunrise and sunset views. It’s also super dog-friendly, which was perfect for our family Newfie, Norman—he made himself right at home. The host was responsive and helpful every step of the way, with thoughtful touches and clear communication that made everything easy. The space felt well cared for and welcoming the moment we walked in. Having John’s Drive-In next door was a huge bonus—the food and friendly service were amazing. Side note: their swag is pretty rad, too—don’t leave without a T-shirt or hat! We’d love to stay at the Shake Shack again and are already looking forward to more “All the Way” burgers next summer!

Relaxing and peaceful family vacation with 2 small kids. Perfect walking distance to the beach. The house views from each floor were beauitful, got to see dolphins! We absolutely loved John's restaurants and ate there everyday. Best burgers and dolphins pieces! Owners got to know us well! Great restaurants in walking distance or just a few miles drive. Brew thru up the road. Loved the jacuzzi bath tub to unwind after a day at the beach. The house had everything needed for a week long family vacation! Special thank you to the owner. Well be booking again in 2026 and making this an annual trip at this home!!!
