About this property
Original Cottage, recent upgrades, Beach 100'' ,Pool, 4 Bed, and 2 Ba
Please check calendar for availability. Reserve now for a fabulous price so close to beach. Authentic Outer Banks Cottage with new wood flooring on the entire main floor, new carpet on the upper floor, new refrigerator, and new couch to help make a great get away. Swim or sun at your private pool, or walk to the beach (100 ft.) in 2 minutes. There is a beach lifeguard on duty during summer season. The area to the North of the cottage is greenspace. This means you have private, unoccupied beach to the North and not built up with any real estate. We have beach chairs, umbrella, and rolling cooler. An outdoor shower provides an area to rinse off after a day at the beach. Have a meal or just relax & read on the screen porch. Ample back deck for sunning or a relaxing cup of coffee. Upper deck off master bedroom has an ocean view or a quiet area to get away. 3 TV's with Apple boxes, lots of board games/puzzles, and videos for evening relaxing. Two tennis courts located 2 blocks away.
Mermaid Cottage is in the center of Corolla, close to everything. Located across from the Currituck Club and Harris Teeter. Timbuck II Shopping area (65 shops) is located 10 min. to the North, across from Food Lion Center with more shops. Historic Currituck Lighthouse & Whalehead Club are a short drive further North. That is also the location of the 4 wheel drive area where the Wild Mustangs of NC are located. A beautiful memory to experience on your beach vacation! You can book a tour to visit them.
Come & visit with us. It doesn't get any better than a day at OBX.(Outer Banks)

About the host
Hosted by Heather Ward, daughter of Dove Barton - owner
We are a retired military family and have traveled the world. Now we call the VA Peninsula home which allows to be hands on home owners. We would like to share the Outer Banks with everyone.
Why they chose this property
We love the Outer Banks. The development is limited by size and codes making for a uncrowded and relaxing place with pristine beaches. We loved seeing the wild mustangs. They roamed this area when we first came down. Now for their own safety, they have been moved to the 4 wheel drive area which is North of Corolla. You make take tours to go see them.
What makes this property unique
There is nothing like the beach to relax and the Outer Banks has some of the best beaches on the East Coast. You will see the brown pelcians flying in a row, going North for fishing (we think). They ride the wind draft coming off the dunes. We have counted a group of 32.
