Nags Head Cottage was perfect for our family of four. It has the old school charm with all the updates. Great location. The kids could walk to Booty Treats for ice cream. And we enjoyed the convenient beach access. Would definitely book again.

Nags Head Cottage was AMAZING!

Thomas and Renee have the cutest 2 bedroom on the beach. The house was well maintained and clean. The kitchen was well equipped. We could not have chosen a better spot for our family vacation. The location allowed for a great starting point in relation to all the OBX have to offer.

So Restful!

This bungalow met our needs perfectly! A lovely, bright, clean & open layout with all amenities included that support a restful stay. We really enjoyed walking the beach, via nearby beach access, and the sidewalks on Virginia Dare Rd. We have no problem recommending this listing.

Lovely cottage

The Cottage was perfect for our family of 3. Clean, comfortable, with a fully stocked kitchen. Outdoor shower was great for after the beach. Close to mini-golf, go-karts, ice cream, and restaurants. Short easy walk to the beach. We will be staying here next year.

Great Long Weekend

The house was exactly as pictured and we loved the layout. Check-in was super easy and the cottage is clearly well-cared for. Fantastic location on a quiet street with an easy walk to the beach. The outdoor shower is not enclosed but has both hot and cold water to make rinsing off easy in all temps. We loved our stay at the cottage and would absolutely rent again!

Nags Head

We loved this awesome cabin. It was adorable. We came there to see a band called The Wildwoods in Manteo. This cabin was convenient to everything. The beach is very close. Wish we could have stayed longer. I am sure we will be back soon and hope the cabin is free when we do.

Great Property Host

We did not actually get to stay in the house for having to unexpectedly cancel our trip. VRBO was unhelpful in the cancellation process, claiming we basically had to go through the host of the house for everything. I wanted to give a great review because the host of this house was so considerate and did as much to help us as he possibly could! I hope to book this house again in the future and actually get to enjoy staying in it, but I know that I’ll have no concerns when working with the host!
