Perfect for two

This beach cottage was very clean, well equipped and s a short walking distance from the beach, just across the street. It is an older cottage with a lot of charm and very comfortable. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the spacious deck and then after a day at the beach relaxed on the coved porch.

Very nice cottage and location. Only gave 4 stars for cleanliness due to the shower curtain being covered in mold. How does housekeeping not see this and clean it or relace it ?

What a great little cottage. It had everything my wife and I needed to live comfortably for the week we were there. It was very clean with lots of old Nags Head charm. The location can't be beat. Literally right across the street. One morning I caught a nice bluefish from the surf. The cottage is so close I carried the fish back by the tail. I cleaned him ,walked back to the beach and caught 2 more! There are tons of beaches in the area with free parking and free admission. You're also in easy walking distance from the Nags Head fishing pier. What a great area. We can't wait to return.

Great oldtime OBX style w upgrades

We loved this property, because it had the old style OBX cottage appearance with these great porches, along with upgraded lighting and necessities, including all the TV channels my husband could watch. PLUS, this place was absolutely wind and rain tight as we experienced the tropical storm spun off Hurricane Ian! I've never been anywhere else so solid! Remember to use your phone flashlight to see the keypad accessing the front door key. We arrived in the dark, and it was a little tricky. Plus, be aware that this is south, not north, if arriving in the dark.

We really enjoyed our stay at Stay Salty. The location was great- especially off season when it wasn’t really noisy right next to a beach access. A bath fan and kitchen fan would be nice, along with screens on more windows for fresh air and ventilation. The shower was really slippery, which could definitely be a hazard. Normally we make use of the outdoor shower, but it was overgrown with weeds and in poor repair. The yard was nice since we have a small dog, and the neighborhood was nice for walking. Would consider it again if it is just the 2 of us.
