We loved this rental and the beachfront location was absolutely perfect. The beds were very comfortable and the home layout worked well for us. Nags Head is a great location to be in the middle of all site locations along OBX.

Absolutely beautiful beach front property! Clean and very well maintained. Nice raised walkway over the dunes made beach access a breeze! We did not use the hot tub, however, on a nice autumn or winter evening, I'm sure it would be wonderful!

Great spot nicely decorated house with all the kitchen items you need good layout but kitchen is tight with a large group.Having the view, the boardwalk to the beach, the hot tub and 3 King rooms were a real blessing;)They have lots of games and puzzles and an arcade type game and a foosball table which was a hit with the kiddos.Would definitely recommend.

Well-maintained home in a great location. Easy beach access and just a short walk to Fish Head's pier, which has a great beachside bar/restaurant. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and plan to return.

House matches all pictures!

Our family of 4 adults and 2 children enjoyed our week at this Nag’s Head home. There was space for those who had to work and plenty of space for those of us who didn’t. The foosball and pinball arcade on the first floor were sources of indoor entertainment and there were plenty of games and puzzles. The kitchen equipment and tools were plentiful, including an electric grill for pancakes! The hot tub gave great relaxation. The washer and dryer were a boon when the kiddos didn’t dodge the waves fast enough. The area had many choices of nearby food shopping and restaurants. Our weather was March windy, but the view of the dunes and ocean from the top floor was fantastic! We’d love to return. (The outdoor grill is weathered, basic, metal charcoal)

Book it!

This place was the bomb. Plenty of room for our large group of kids, teens and adults to spread out and sleep soundly. It was off season when we visited, so many restaurants/stores were closed, but we still found lots of delicious options within a 12min drive. AND, we had the ENTIRE beach to ourselves for all four days. We also arrived on daylight-savings day, so our timed key code didn't work with the hour change...but a super quick call to the property manager had us in within minutes. I was super happy and relieved. One note: there are little-to-no consumables provided during our visit, so be prepared with literally everything you might need: salt/pepper/seasonings, garbage bags, TP, paper towels, coffee filters/pods, dish soap, dishwasher detergent, etc. The kitchen is well stocked in terms of pans/appliances, but we were a little surprised that most of the above items were missing. We were thankful the grocery store is 10min away! Overall, this was a great stay, and we'd definitely book again next time we are in OBX.
