Cozy Beach Cottage

Plenty of space for friends and family to unwind. Great location tucked away in the middle of the OBX making it convenient to get everywhere we wanted to see and easily accessible for a break in the day. Would definitely book this cottage again. Absolutely loved it!

Spring Break Vacation

We enjoyed our stay and found the owners to be very attentive and responsive in a timely manner when we had concerns. Although accommodations were adequate, we really would have loved a bathtub.

Perfect spot

We enjoyed our stay, we loved the location & short walk to the beach. We would love to stay here again. Bathroom door was broken but wasn't a huge deal, also the heat/air was funky to adjust but we made it and overall had a beautiful time.

Disappointing

The house shows many signs of wear and tear and needs a deep cleaning. Holes in vinyl floors, many carpet stains, throw pillow and blanket stains, hole in wall, dirty kitchen windows, torn screens, bathroom mold on shower curtains and toilet cleaning utensils, dog poo in yard, cockroach bug in bathroom, outside furniture and grill too rusty to use. Owner was receptive and thankful to my comments but nothing done during our stay.Gorgeous sunsets, central location, sufficient dinnerware and linens.

Perfect moms and sons trip

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It’s nice to be away from the main area and it’s a short drive to anything you might need. The house was an easy walk to the beach - we felt safe at night walking around as well. The house layout was great for us to be upstairs and give the teenagers some space. Loved the kitchen table with built in lazy Susan. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook plenty of meals at the house. We loved it!

Nags head stay!

We came to stay for April vacation! It was my 8 year old son, myself and my boyfriend. The property was beautiful! We grilled on the porch and walked to the beach everyday! We loved the mini golf near by and the beach the best. I highly recommend staying at the property and we would love to come back!

Nice

The cottage was overall very clean. It was a little dated. The biggest thing that I had was there is hardly any parking can’t even hardly turn your car around, but the owner was very responsive. Very nice and very easy to deal with overall the cottages very nice and for the price I would stay there again.

Good value for off-season rental

Great value for our stay. Split level (3) house with 2 full bedrooms and multiple sofabeds in 2 other open areas. New air conditioning/heater wall units. Good LED TVs and Spectrum internet. Good location within 100 yards of Nags Head beach access. Within walking distance of Jeannette's pier. In addition to our own toilet paper, paper towels, and trash bags (as stated in their description), we bought our own dish soap, bath soap, and dobie pads for dishwashing. Liquid soap provided was so-so. Nonetheless, we give our stay 5 stars.

Plesant and relaxing.

Though this place is dated, it was comfortable and cozy. When a light went out we called number, someone came out and fixed it. Everybody was very pleasant and nice. Easy to work with. Very helpful of places to go and very easy to check in. Enjoyed our stay very much. Wanted to mention there is no dishwasher not a big deal for us , but that may bother some. Not a lot of room to park. Only us there so no problem for us, but may be for others. We had a great time.
