SOUNDSIDE Avon- Pheasant Ct. (formerly Ask In Cottage) The location of this comfortable and family-friendly bungalow, located at the peaceful southern end of Avon on a secluded cul-de-sac, offers the best of multiple worlds: less than five mins.’ walk from the beach, a one-min. drive from Ramp 38, entryway to year-round four-wheel-drive beach access beloved by fishermen, and poised at the northern tip of more than six miles of undeveloped National Seashore between Avon and Buxton—ideal for photogenic beach walking, and home to two world-class water-sport destinations on the soundside: Canadian Hole, a bucket-list location for windsurfers, and Kite Point, a international Mecca for kiteboarders. The bungalow itself, a classic cedar-shake saltbox offers vistas of both the ocean and sound from the roomy, well-furnished upper and lower decks. The main level, sporting a fresh look this year with freshly-laid bamboo floor and a new paint has living/dining area with cathedral ceilings, a queen bedroom, full bath, and a cavernous, well-equipped kitchen with pantry closet which opens onto a huge screened porch with picnic table and access to the covered lower deck. The upper level has a king and bunk bedroom, a full bath, and access to the sizable upper deck; it also features a cozy loft area with double-bed futon/couch and table and chairs for a peaceful reading area, a lively card game, or a fourth sleeping space. The entry level has secure inside storage for all your gear, washer and dryer, and access to the enclosed outside shower. The shelling and fish-cleaning table and charcoal grille are next to the under-home parking area. Whether you seek a watersport or fishing destination, a fast walk to sundrenched days on the beach, the experience of long walks on a rare natural seashore, or just the countless hunt for the ideal shell—Askin Cottage has you covered.

New for 2023: Will be a Saturday check-in. New for 2022: Bamboo floor, rugs, and new counter stools on the second floor. Fresh paint and new décor throughout the home. New futon, table, and chairs for loft space, and a new intelligent-TV in the living room. One bunk converted into a single.

Awful Arthur's Oyster Bar

Welcome to the home of the happy oyster where for over 35 years the oyster has been our world. The Outer Banks only authentic oyster bar is the place to enjoy sensational fare from the sea washed down with your favorite brew or cocktail. We serve by the peck, pound, and dozen, raw or steamed to perfection. Kicked back casual, down to earth friendly staff, and reasonable prices make Awful Arthur’s Oyster Bar the all-time favorite of locals and travelers alike.

The idea wasn’t to set out and establish a new concept restaurant on the Outer Banks, but that’s exactly what Awful Arthur’s owner Jo Whitehead and her late husband, Jay, accomplished more than 35 years ago when they opened the area’s first authentic oyster bar.

 

Awful Arthur’s opened in May 1984 on the Outer Banks. “We embraced the concept of an authentic copper top bar with the idea of it being a major drawing card and it still is,” explains Whitehead. “I get oysters wherever they are local. We follow the warm waters.” 

 

Just across from the ocean, in Kill Devil Hills, oyster season is year-round at Awful Arthur’s. Diners can take a seat at the copper-topped bar to observe the staff shucking oysters, served raw or steamed, along with shrimp, crab legs and clams all steamed to perfection. 

 

It’s not just the raw bar that’s earned Awful Arthur’s both local and national recognition, including being named one of America’s greatest oyster bars by Coastal Living magazine. The restaurant is a seafood-lover’s paradise, offering the freshest catches available.
