We had such a great time at the Bankers Cottage. It was perfect for a long weekend away, and was even great for our dog. The place was clean and is in a great location (just across the street from the beach entrance.) we would definitely recommend this tiny home and hope to revisit in the future!

Bankers cottage was perfect! Perfect area, close access to the beach and just a short drive to restaurants & shopping but secluded enough to have our own space. Very clean house. We are already looking to book this cottage again!

This cottage was made for us - beaches, horses, and people! My basset hound and I loved it. Close to the beach in a quiet part of Nags Head. Great size for one or two people. Easy to access and very clean. We will definitely be back!

Great little place for a couple and their pets! We come to the OBX at least annually. We wanted to take our bulldogs let them experience something new and this little cottage was perfect for a long weekend. Close to all our favorite restaurants. I’m sure we’ll be back!

Nice and Quiet

Nags Head was very quiet in the off-season. Cottage was in easy reach of Cape Hatteras, the aquarium and gardens on Roanoke Island, Jockey Ridge state park. Beach was just a few steps away. Starry skies at night. Hosts were easy to work with and talk to.

Cozy winter vacation

We loved our stay at this little house. The proximity to the ocean was our favorite, and there was even a little wagon to carry our things over to the beach. We would recommend bringing an extra blanket if you come in colder temperatures, and note that the mattress has a lot of give if you have back issues. With that said, this cottage had everything we needed. Thank you!

Tiny Cottage that had it all

We had a wonderful week at Bankers Cottage!!! The location is amazing. We could hear the waves when we opened the front door. Right across the street is the public beach access. The house was spotless when we arrived. The bed was one of the most comfortable we have slept in. The house was perfect for my husband and I and our dog. There are two rockers on the porch that we sat in and enjoyed the night sky. There is also a picnic table if you would like to eat outside. We highly recommend Bankers Cottage! It is a gem!

Will Return

This is the second time we have stayed at Bankers Cottage. We will return. We love the area, also like the cottage. It fits our needs. The only issue is the floors are in bad need of mopping. Also there is never a dish rag or dish towel. I bring extra rags incase of a need. Glad I did this time.
