My wife and I had planned to sneak away with our dogs in late January but Mother Nature decided to dump record snow on Nags Head that weekend. I called just to ask about moving up our reservation by a day but Ronni went all mother hen on me and said she didn’t love that idea because we could still be putting ourselves in danger and offered to move our dates back a bit. Incredible idea. We just got back. Weather was perfect for March. Weather was gorgeous. But the house was wonderful. Hardwood floors, so much natural light, incredibly clean. Pet friendly is an understatement. But that Crow’s Nest. Game changer. We are up there. Had drinks up there. See y’all next time. Ronni, you are awesome.
I loved the fact that we coukd take our three little furbabies with us and we had a fenced in front yard for them.The unit was older but a great deal for the money and i will stay again.I would love to rent the same place again next year.
This house was perfect for our family of 4 plus pups! The kitchen table was nice and large to play games and the beds and bathrooms were clean and tidy.The walkway to the beach was very easy and the outside decks allowed us to always have views of the water.I really appreciated the mud room with the washer/dryer to help organize stuff and the fenced in yard was so helpful.The only suggestion I would have is to update the screened in porch and include a larger table to eat outside.
First stay at an online rental. Loved it, loved it, loved it. Clean, spacious, and lots of amenities. Parking right next to the unit. Very easy access to the beach. Outdoor shower to wash the sand off. Dog friendly. We would stay here again and would recommend it to anyone.
House is a little dated, but location was good! Right on beach and near many restaurants. Only complaint is towels feel like sand paper and are way too rough. Plus fenced in area for dog is very tiny and best for a small dog not big enough for a big dog!

I am glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. I am sorry about the towels. I wish that you would have told me so I could have replaced them with the right towels. I am sorry about that. We have had big dogs, small dogs, and medium size dogs in this house. We have the fence for safety of our guest pets because the road is so close to this house. The fence is only about 4 feet. So I am sorry about that.
Great location! This house is on the beach side with maybe 3 or 4 other houses in front of the beach. Only a short walk to the beach. We went to the Wrights Brothers National Memorial (20 minutes), jockeys ridge state park (10 minutes), and cape hatteras light house (1 hour). The house was clean, beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was fully stocked with pots and pans and plates and bowls and utensils. great view of ocean from the crows nest. Front fenced yard is dog friendly.

I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us Yung! Come back and see us again soon!
This house is in a great location. Well stocked. We enjoyed the crows nest the most! Just a couple suggestions to make- the king mattress was extremely uncomfortable and sunk in on both sides. Might be time to replace. Also, since this is a pet friendly rental, carpets on the stairs inside would be nice. Our dog had a hard time going up and down. Otherwise, everything was great!

The house was perfect for our stay. It was clean, and super close to the beach, a quick walk to the path leading to the ocean, which was easily seen from the crows nest. My hubby and I spent a lot of time in the crows nest, drinking our coffee in the morning, aour wine wine in the

Nice location. Though it has a path to the beach it’s also super close to the public access which is easier to cross. The cottage itself is great for a family trip with everything that’s needed.

The trip was fun! Easy access to the beach and the cottage is just as described. Enjoyed our evenings on the porch, within walking distance to the pier and other family members. Can’t wait to go back!
