This is the place to be if you want a real beach cottage experience. The basics of this property made it feel authentic and exactly the experience I wanted. The host was AMAZING! Great communication and she even set us up in a different cottage for an extra night with minimum hassle.The walk to and access to the beach was easy and our dog absolutely loved lounging around enjoying the ocean breeze on the front porch. This property does have a mini fridge and no stove which made cooking a bit difficult but we managed with a skillet that we brought and the charcoal grill out back. Overall, a wonderful experience.

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!

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!
