Currituck Mainland Rentals

There are many popular destinations on Currituck Mainland. The largest destination to enjoy is the access to the water. Here you have access to the Albemarle Sound on the west and the Currituck Sound on the east. This destination allows the whole family to enjoy boating, fishing, tubing, kayaking, and jet skiing. There are a few bars/restaurants on the Currituck Mainland (Barrys in Walnut Island and the Currituck Trading Post) that are located directly on the sound allowing for great water views. And you`ll be lucky to see a sunset over the sound – there is nothing more beautiful (except maybe a sunrise over the ocean!)

Sanctuary Vineyards: A family-owned winery with tastings, tours, and locally made wines. They often have live music in the evenings and annual events such as the Crabdaddy Seafood and Wine Festival.

H2OBX Water Park: Great for all ages, you can enjoy a day sunbathing on a cabana, tubing down the lazy river, or going down a slide. Open Memorial Day to Labor Day

There are some nice golf courses in Currituck Mainland – Kilmarlic, The Pointe, Holly Ridge, the Carolina Club, and Eagle Creek are great courses all located on the Currituck Mainland to enjoy a golf outing. These golf courses are much more affordable than the ones on the OBX and just as much fun!

Farmers Markets: Because farming is so prevalent in Currituck County, you can find several farmers` markets. Stop by Tarheel Market, Grandy Greenhouse, Powell`s Roadside Market, and Morris Farm and grab some fresh produce, seafood, and locally made goods. The Morris Farm has a bar and larger concert venue where you can listen to live music. Stop by in the fall for a pumpkin patch ride!

Historic Jarvisburg Colored School – In Jarvisburg, there is a renowned white building which is the location of the Historic Jarvisburg Colored school. Learn about education of African American students prior to de-segregation as well as what their lives were living in rural Currituck.

Diggers Dungeon: Being the home of the famous monster truck, Grave Digger, a visit to Diggers Dungeon is sure to please. See the truck up close and take some pictures. Other things to do: eat at the onsite restaurant (that even serves breakfast), take a ride on the dirt track in a different monster truck, or buy some Grave Digger merchandise. Every so often there is a monster truck race at the track located a few miles north.

Buffalo City Distillery: Take a tour of the distillery, enjoy a tasting, and listen to live music. You can even buy some bottles of whiskey to take home with you.

In addition to these destinations, there are plenty of restaurants, unique local shops, tobacco stores, a wedding venue (Loblolly Estate), and grocery stores on the Currituck Mainland.

The KEES vacation rentals on the Currituck Mainland are all waterfront properties. These are more cost-effective than oceanfront homes. Visiting the Currituck Mainland allows you to enjoy the activities mentioned above. Here you are close enough to Kitty Hawk beaches and other towns of the Outer Banks. However, renting a home on the Currituck Mainland allows you to drive back over the Wright Brothers Memorial Bridge and experience a more quiet, relaxing, serene experience.

It`s the best of both worlds, in that you have the beach and the sound. You are close to the cities of Chesapeake and Elizabeth City in case you want to explore other areas or visit places that we might not have down on the Outer Banks, yet still close to the entire Outer Banks.

You have access to dining, farmers` markets, and shopping on the Currituck Mainland. We encourage you to enjoy water activities, farmers` markets, golf, hiking, biking, and horseback riding.
