5 minute walk to ocean with opt heated pool, hot tub,game rm & tons of amenities

Welcome to the Sundog- the perfect spot for one family or several families to gather & enjoy your vacation at MP 13.5 in Nags Head. We are a convenient 5 minute walk to the ocean (we are where the OBX narrows and are closer to the ocean than a lot of homes that are on the oceanside- we are on the soundside).

Our home is packed with amenities to reduce what you have to pack, buy or rent. Our goal is to provide a home where most of the things you want are already here- we have been coming to the OBX for over 30 years and hated how most rentals you have so much to bring since the homes had limited amenities or things were old and damaged (we update house photos yearly so you know what to expect). We offer an inground saltwater pool (option to have pool heated for a fee), 7 person hot tub, game room with pool table, multicade arcade game, smart tv's & surround system, bikes, pool & beach amenities, tons of parking, just a bike ride away from many favorites (restaurants, grocery stores, shopping, Jockey's Ridge), less than 1/4 mile from the hospital.

Ocean views from master bedroom and dining room & feel the amazing breezes from every deck. We mean what we say we want you to have an amazing experience with us as we don't wait until things are broken to replace them. Here are some of the things that make our home different:very clean home (seriously this is something we take very serious & take pride in and ensure our cleaning staff does a thorough clean after every guest checks out), tons of parking (Super important as you can't park on street in the Outer Banks), deck access from every bedroom (but don't worry decks have gates to ensure kids don't wonder off), pool and hot tub are gated, great air conditioning (have uv germicidal- no moldy smelling house here like so many beach homes), updated decorations/furnishings, comfortable beds (even the pull out couch has a gel mattress pad), comfortable linens & fluffy towels, fully stocked kitchen (with spices, coffee, non-perishable creamers, sweeteners, teas, etc), paper towels, toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap at every sink-and not just a starter pack you won't need more while you are staying with us. And seriously I hate cheap products you will enjoy what we provide you. Blow dryers in every bathroom, Laundry detergent, 4 hammocks, 7 smart tvs, surround system on 1st & 3rd floor with speakers on outside decks and by pool, we go through home after every guest seeing if we need to replace things and disposing of broken/damaged things replacing them with new if needed. Additional amenities: 5 adult bikes, beach accessories(chairs, wagons, umbrellas, sand toys, cooler), beach towels, pool toys, horse shoes, yard size connect four, fire pit, grill, spa robes, and much more to ensure you enjoy your stay!

Our home is in a neighborhood, Old Nags Head Cove. The community has great amenities as well: 2 soundside beaches, basketball & volleyball court, fishing pier and several fishing spots with benches, community pool, roads that lend themselves to walking or biking, water access - launching space for kayaks, paddleboards & canoe, boat ramp - community charges guests $40 per week to use boat ramp. Our property has enough space for boat parking. We hope you enjoy our peaceful oasis! The home, pool & hot tub is cleaned & sanitized after every stay at our home.

Person booking reservation must be 25 years or older *Max of 9 adults per reservation *Home is within a community, and we ask that you honor our quiet hours, which are from 11pm-8am

*Reservations require a signed lease & copies of id's for all adults staying in the home within 24 hours.

*Because Saturday/Sunday traffic is crazy at the beach during the summer & we have realized it is hard to ensure that things will get fixed & cleaned well( if damaged upon a previous guests check out) with a Saturday/Sunday check in/check out. Because of this, we don't accept check in/check outs on Saturday/Sunday.

Beautiful House

We really enjoyed our stay here. Unfortunately, it rained during the majority of our trip, but we still had a great time. The house has plenty of amenities and supplies, and we were very comfortable here. We especially enjoyed the pool and hot tub. It was definitely one of the nicest rentals I’ve stayed in. Anna was a very friendly and responsive host.

Excellent Location for Family Weekend

We had an excellent time at Sundog House! The gift basket at check in was a welcome touch and the additional amenities like beach gear, towels, aromatherapy items and more allowed us to relax and connect rather than worry about bringing all kinds of stuff with us from home.

Family

This place was a perfect place to allow all to get together yet still have a place to be by yourself. Getting together with family is very important and this was all I hoped it would be. The attention to detail by the owners was so appreciated by all. Thanks again to the owners for allowing us to feel right at home!

Fabulous vacation home

We were very impressed with the cleanliness and comfort of this home. It was wonderfully equipped, with delightful amenities (k cups, candy!) and very convenient to the beach, stores and shopping. Having the bikes right there, the grill, and the pool made it a complete oasis! I've stayed in many VRBO's and this was one of the best. It handled the amount of people it said it could very well.

Relaxing and fun Nag's Head vacation

The house is beautiful, with everything visitors could want. We loved the third floor living space, with sunrise and sunset views, and decks on both sides to enjoy them from. It's a perfect location in Nag's Head, close to the beach, the sound, stores and restaurants. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub every day as well. Anna is an excellent and communicative property manager!

Great house in Nags Head

This house was perfect for our stay in Nags Head! It was a short walk to the beach, and their beach wagon was very helpful. The pool and hot tub were the perfect place to hang after a day on the beach. The house was very clean and stocked with everything we needed. They had tons of beach towels. Beds and pillows were very comfortable. And Anna was extremely responsive with any issues! Overall, a great stay!

Great Introduction to the Outer Banks

Anna’s Sundog rental was the perfect place for our family get-together and first trip to the Outer Banks. She provided more than we could have asked for and was available for any questions I had along the way. Being on the Sound-side, friends who are very familiar with the area were concerned about access to the ocean, but the light located a block over made the crossing doable, even with a flock of children. Anna suggested a golf cart rental place and that for sure helped get things to and from the beach, but wasn’t absolutely necessary. It really was a great location and we all enjoyed our stay. We hope to stay there for many summers to come!

Packed with amenities, incredibly clean

This is a great house in a great location! It had more amenities than any other place I've stayed. We didn't find any area that was unclean, and the owner was easy to communicate with. One thing to note is that the kitchen is on the third floor, which gives a great view for mealtimes and hanging out, but could be a problem for anyone who cannot climb stairs. The owner sent us a detailed floor plan, so it did not come as a surprise, but in case someone misses it in the house description, I thought I would point it out here. We had a great vacation and would heartily recommend this house!

Sundog house

What an absolutely amazing week we had in Nags Head with the Sundog house. The house was immaculate, had something for everyone, I don’t think there was anything more they could have done to make us feel welcome and at home. There was a welcome basket waiting for us, the beach was literally a 5 minute walk away and the amenities in the house were just as advertised, which we all got great use out of during the week, from the pool and the hot tub, to the pool table to just chilling around a fire in the back yard. The owners were easily accessible for any questions or issues. I just can’t say enough great things about this location. Next time we’re down here we will absolutely stay in this home again!!

Great house, close to the beach,pool and hot tub. Very clean and amenities were nice and unexpected.

Coffee service and snacks were top notch. It was great to have everything we needed in the kitchen. Our family loves to cook and entertain so it was nice to have everything we needed on hand. Bonus game room with bar and fridge so we had easy access to drinks/ice while in the pool or jacuzzi. The games and toys both in the living room and in the game room and the pool area were great especially chess table and connect 4 and pool table. We would definitely go back to this house again. The host, Anna was great and very helpful when I had questions. The only negative was that we wanted the pool heated since it was pretty cool outside but you have to give 3 days advance notice in order for it to heat the water in time for your visit. We are from the Deep South and aren’t used to swimming in 70* water.
