This was our second visit to Reel Salt. Like our first visit in 2025, it did not disappoint. The home is very clean, well equipped (we appreciated the beach chairs), quiet, and close to the beach, restaurants and grocery stores. The check-in process is easy.We hope to return again soon. When you find a good thing, you stick with it!

What a great review! We're so glad to hear your fishing crew had a great time and that our property was the perfect home base for your trip. It's wonderful that you found the location so convenient. Both Pirates Cove Marina and Oregon Inlet Fishing Center are so close by. We know how important easy access is for a day on the water, and we're so happy our home provided that for you. Thanks for leaving our home in perfect order. We loved having you and hope you'll come back to see us again soon!

Thank you so much for this review. Thanks for bringing out the closeness to the beach. Reelsaltobx is also very close to the beach and less than 1/4 mile from fish heads bar and grill that overlooks the ocean on the outer banks pier where you can also fish. I hope you were able to enjoy this great place. I am really happy that you enjoyed your vacation.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're so glad you enjoyed your stay and found the house to be a perfect fit for your family vacation. We love the two living areas and the amount of space it provides to spread out too. We try to offer our guests all of the items that we would want on vacation. We cook a lot, so a well-stocked kitchen is important, and we provide the beach chairs and a beach cart so you don’t have to bring them from home. We'd love to have you stay with us again!

A relaxing week at the beach

Great location and views of the sound for the sunset, the sunrise and very great star gazing. The couches / beds are very comfortable and the house has a very open nice feel. The decks are great to catch some rays or read a book. Very nice place ! Would recommend for sure.

Thank you! We enjoyed hosting you and are glad that you had a great time. Thank you for the nice review. The skies in Nags Head seem to be much clearer to enjoy star-gazing. Maybe it is because there is much less light pollution. We enjoy it a lot! The sunsets ARE really amazing to me. I am glad you enjoyed that panoramic view from the soundside deck. Hope to see you again soon!

Great getaway in Nags Head! The top floor living space is lovely and we enjoyed hours of games and beautiful views of the sunrise and sunsets. The private back deck and lush scenery was a welcome view. The beds are super comfortable (always critical!) and the beach is only a short walk away. The hot tub was perfect for the only rainy day we had. The owner is incredibly responsive and truly wants you to have a great vacation. Thank you!

Wonderful home in a great location. We have stayed in OBX many times over the years. And this was a great home for us this year. Good location near the beach with lots of good restaurants close by.

Thank you, Andrew for that great review! I am so glad that you enjoyed your vacation here at reelsaltobx. We also love that we are a 3 minute walk across the street from the beach. We think the restaurants in Nags Head and other towns close by are some of the best in the obx. Also, fish heads bar and grill is about 3/4 of a mile away where you can enjoy beer and wine and light fare overlooking the ocean. We vacationed in Nags Head for many year before deciding to buy. We really try to provide all of the kitchen equipment needed to make some really good family meals at home. Thank you for your communications, as well and we hope you return again!

Great house, great location

The Reel Salt is a very comfortable house convenient to several beach access points. Only about a mile down South Oregon Inlet road, it’s close enough to Nags Head restaurants and shopping, but out of the traffic. Tracy was very responsive and an excellent communicator. Outstanding experience overall!

Family and friends long weekend

We enjoyed our stay in south Nags Head. The property is very nice and check-in / check-out were easy. We missed the fact that we needed to bring our own soap, shampoo, etc so posting that here for future guests in case they miss it in the other materials as we did. The beds were very comfortable, which is not always the case at rental properties.

Thank you Erin for your review. It is true that we do not provide soap, shampoo and other paper products. While we would love to be able to supply creature comforts, we are not onsite and are unable to do so. I am so glad that you enjoyed your stay and the beds. They are all high quality mattresses and new.

Great time in South Nags Head!

Can’t recommend this property enough! Clean, updated, comfortable, and welcoming in every aspect. It was perfect for all ages—our kids enjoyed the hot tub and the grandmothers enjoyed sitting on the beautiful deck for happy hour. Just a 3-min walk to the beach made for easy access to the ocean. Tracy was communicative and responsive throughout the whole process and gave us excellent recommendations for dining and activities. We give it 5 stars and will be returning!
