Top 10 Reasons to Rent Monthly during the Outer Banks Winter

We all know about the amazing summers spent on the Outer Banks, frolicking under the warm sun, splashing around in the refreshing Atlantic and spending warm nights under the stars Barbequing with friends and family. Labor Day use to mark the end of the "busy" season here on the beach but each year, the peak season seems to last a little longer and the fun continues later into the Fall.You would have never guessed that roughly 20 or so years ago after Labor Day the Island was completely vacant... Only a very small few knew the secret of how special the Outer Banks is once the sun begins to set a little earlier, the nights grow a bit cooler, the traffic subsides and each person you pass you know by name. Slowly but surely it seems that the long kept secret of winter on the Outer Banks is out and we couldn't be more thrilled to share our special slice of heaven with you!Show Me the Winter Rentals!

Many people still don't know what to expect from winter on the Outer Banks so let me paint a picture for you!

Off-Season Renters in OBXImagine, starting your day first with a cup of locally brewed fresh coffee and taking it down to the beach, that's right some days are still warm enough that with the proper bundling or garments you can enjoy a sunshine-filled stroll down the beautiful coast collecting more seashells and sea glass than would have ever been possible during the summer months! Shell collecting becomes one of my absolutely favorite hobbies during the winter months, there is something so serene about taking a walk down an empty beach, feeling the sun on your face & watching it glint off the water while the bird's perform a private concert just for you! Days are blissful but the nights do get a little colder. Visualize yourself cozying up with loved ones in front of a fire, drinking hot cocoa, snuggled up in the blanket you purchased at one of the many unique boutiques that are only on the Outer Banks, listening to the mighty melody of the oceans roars in your extremely well priced Ocean Front cottage!So, now that the stage is set and the picture is painted, what else does winter on the Outer Banks have to offer besides peaceful nights and extremely LOW rental prices? The list goes on and on... So let me break it down for you:
