Clean and cozy. Perfect for me. They were very accommodating, as well. Less than two weeks before my stay, one of my dogs passed away. Within minutes of me asking, they refunded the pet deposit. Would definitely recommend.

Edward J.

We stayed 4 nights and were only given one towel and washcloth each for our entire stay. We had to bring extra. We had to put the sheets on ourselves, were only given one trash bag, had to sweep up before we left and given a list of what had to be done before we left or we would be charged either an extra day stay or 75 if the furniture was moved and not put back in its original spot. Our question was, what does the cleaning crew actually do? It wasn't very relaxing knowing we could be charged if we forgot to do something on the checkout list.

Wonderful week in Nags Head. Peppers was just right for the 2 of us, and our dog loved it as well. Comfortable, clean and a very short walk to a great beach. Patio is lovely for drinks and stars. So glad we found it, and fully intend to return in the Spring for a couple of weeks.

A favorite place to stay

I have stayed at this cottage before as well as other Rentals on the Ocean rentals and every stay has been exceptional. The houses are older but so well taken care of and seem to be consistently updated on the inside and out as well as all of the amenities.

Great little place and Terrific location

The perfect size for one to two people And a pup or two. Charming bungalow, great amenities. Loved the available seating on porch and deck (though cushions for the rockers and a small table between them wouldn’t be a bad idea.) Great access to the beach and close to grocery stores. Highly recommend!

Another great stay

We previously stayed at the cottage and the entire kitchen was redone. We arrived a little earlier than checkin time and reached out to the property manager who sent over the cleaners so that we could start our vacation early. Once again, a great place to stay and we will definitely return.

Nice place!

We enjoyed our stay at Peppers cottage. Cute and clean. They even provided us a starter pack with paper towels, toilet paper, dishwasher pods, dish soap, and 2 bars of soap. It was alittle hard to find on a dark rainy night. Didn’t realize it was on Laughing Gull Cottages property. Also be aware if you have mobility issues: beach access is nearby but over a dune of soft deep shifting sand. No board walk unfortunately. We asked to have a later checkout but this was not able to be granted even in off season and apparently costs an extra day. We did appreciate being able to bring our large dog along for the stay and will consider booking here again. Location is good in Nags Head.
