We had an amazing week at this house. It was very clean and family friendly, with a wonderful porch to relax on in the mornings and evenings. Beach chairs and toys and a bike available to use as well as a hot tub! Close proximity to the beach and an overall great location in Nags Head. The information about the house prior to arriving was a little vague about linens, so be sure to bring your own sheets and towels! This wasn’t a huge problem but worth knowing ahead of time.

We have been coming to the OBX since 2016 with our family and I will have to say this house was our favorite. It was by far the cleanest we have ever arrived to and it was the best updated and functioning house that was stocked with almost everything that you would need to stay here. The location of the house was great. I would highly recommend staying at this house if it is the right fit for your family. Thank you for the great accommodations.

Peaceful family getaway

We loved our stay - the property was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and we appreciated the extra amenities for the beach. Hot tub was a bonus also! Location is great - walkable to the beach but we were able to find parking at the public access everyday. Quiet neighborhood is perfect for families.

The house was in a great location. Walking distance to a brewery and several very good restaurants. Short walk to the beach. Enjoyed the porch with a constant breeze. We did not use the hot tub or cook in at all but the kitchen was fully stocked. There were several beach chairs to use but we brought our own.

We would stay again. Excellent location. It was nearby all sorts of dining and activities. Beach was so close too. House was clean and renovated. Very comfortable place. Only issue was I missed reading the very clear rental agreement - bring/ rent or buy your own bed linens, towels and paper products. HomeGoods was close by to solve this.

This is a nice house that was clean and is close to the beach , but lacks wifi and the washing machine was broken and we were not told until we found a note on the machine when we checked in. If you are looking to not spend much time in the place this might work for you.

Newly remodeled cottage in a quiet and clean neighborhood. The beach walk is close, however, no sidewalks. The house was furnished as described except the clothes dryer did not work. The owner was not able to swap out the dryer and made due with a drying rack. street
