Navy brought us to VA & NC in 1971 from Bethalto, IL. We fell in love w/the area & have been here ever since, except for 2 over seas assignments in Egypt & Japan.
Why the Owner Chose Nags Head
We had been staying in this area at a friend's cottage for years, knew it was family area, that was quiet, private, but also close to everything we need.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Being close enough to just take a casual walk on the beach, enjoying the local area & being away from the hussle of the cityand work.

A terrific week was had by all - owners are terrific folks and very accommodating and helpful with any/all issues, of which there were few. Home is in spotless condition and in terrific location regarding the beach and commercial entities. We are headed back in September and already are counting the days!

We had a wonderful time at the "Shell." The house was all it was advertised to be and then some. We had a great time just sitting around the living room one night laughing and telling tall tales. We all had a place to sit and relax comfortably - all 12 of us! We would all go back again given the chance.

We have the best guest, over the years many have become our best friends and are like family. They share the love of the OBX as well as their love of staying at the Mushill's Shell with us and take care of it as though it was their own. We look forward to seeing them year after year.

We have stayed at this lovely house for two years. Brenda is so nice and has made us feel so welcome in their beach home. From the upstairs bedroom you have a view of the ocean and this house has plenty of sleeping space. We look forward to coming to this house every year and hate to leave after we get there. I would highly recommend this house to you it is very nice and well kept. Cheryl Carter
