This 2 bedroom and 1 bath is Flat top Cottage has a classic beach box look with modern amenities and comfortable furnishings. We are super excited with this property due to the Nags Head location, the extra room in the front of the living room and the walk in shower. The cottage is located at mile post 16 with 10 restaurants with in 2 miles, putt putt, go carts, water sports and a Nags Head golf Links close by also. There is The Nags Head Outlet mall across the street with Eddie Bower, Coach, Polo and a bunch more.
The location in Nags Head makes it easy to go anywhere on the beach, north to Jockey's Ridge, largest sand dune on the east coast, or south to Hatteras to see the Cape Hatteras Light House. There are two beach access close enough you don' t need to drive. By close they are 50 yards on each side. The one to the north does have an out door shower and foot wash, but there is also a water hose on the north side of the house. The town of Manteo is 10 min away and worth a trip downtown with more shops, restaurants, and a brewery and distillery. A walk on the the waterfront dock is always relaxing.
A quick note about this property.

We also have a duplex the Southwester, # 1067106 and the other side Noreaster, # 907506.

We have had more fun checking guests in personally and telling them about our Outer Banks than you know and can't wait for future guests to come enjoy any one of our places. Mom made them super cute and beach themed. If you wanted to go on vacation with some other families but like your space also, we have the spot for you and our family restaurant , the Dunes is right behind you for breakfast, dinner, carry out and a full bar with no driving required. Our places are safe and secure with storage for beach gear.
In the event of a hurricane or threat of one and you need to cancel. Not a problem! We give a full refund. We do not wish to profit from a storm and we will hope you can rebook at a future date and pick us and Nags Head year after year.

There is WiFi and a smart TV. The out front room is a cute place to take a nap under the ceiling fan on the plush couch, or finish up the book you started earlier on the beach. and a place mom and dad could catch up while the kids watch a movie.
If you were able to see the bathroom and how small it was you would know why this shower is a great addition to the cottage.
My cell is 252 573 8626. Contact me via text if i can be of help.

Girls getaway

Great location! Easy access to the beach, national parks and shopping. The house was a comfortable place to hang out as we lingered over morning coffee, did a jigsaw puzzle on a rainy day and talked late into the night. Comfy beds and cute decor.

Needed Beach Break

Cozie, Homey and close to the Beach. We save up for an annual beach break and this spot felt like a home away from home. Close enough to walk and carry a few things to the beach access. My daughter had a ball playing in the water and the sand. And you have a host that cares that you’re comfortable during your stay. Thank You Patrick. And look forward to booking for next summer!

Just Right for Fishermen!

My best friend and I stayed here. It's everything you need and nothing you don't. Great service too! I texted Patrick for a couple things and he came straight over. Nice fella too! The location is close to the pier and everything else you need. We will be back next year.

Great Spot for our July 4th vacation

We planned a trip at the last minute and felt lucky that we found a place to stay - but it turned out to be way more than just lucky. The house was perfect for our stay, we loved the layout and feel - and the AC was cold in every room! We'll plan to be back when it is a bit cooler so we can enjoy the sweet front porch room!

Older cottage but was very clean and inside had bean remodeled. Right across the road from the beac

Nice older cottage, that was very clean! Location was great, right across the road from the beach and close to Jeanette’s pier. Several great places to eat within a very short walking distance which was good for use. You cannot see the beach but you can see the dunes when you walk around to the side of the house. For the price and the location I would definitely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Patrick Pritchard

Host profile image
I am the middle son of the Pritchard family. Mom is a true Native to the Outer Banks with roots down the beach as far as 1749 Pop said. Dad is from Elizabeth City about an hour away and grew up vacationing on the beach. They bought the Dunes restaurant and the duplex property in 1982. Dad was a banker who wanted a change with two small boys, 3 and 1 and a little girl on the way, he thought this would be a way to get ahead. 35 years later we are still at it at the Dunes and our other pride and joy Grits Grill, a breakfast and lunch spot two, miles up the road.

So we redid one side of the duplex and saw that it was getting some rents after we put it in the VRBO program, so we did this side also. They are cool property's for couples of small family's.

I grew up at the north end of Roanoke Island, where the Lost Colony settled back in 1587. Had a great child hood on the Outer Banks. There is so much to do. Hunting, fishing, boating, 4 wheeler s, chasing girls, beach time, summer jobs, winter breaks. We were always involved in school programs as well as church stuff. One of my favorite hobbies is golf which I picked up at 16 but was able to get good quick. Still love to play just don't get the time. Went to a small school of Campbell University where is spent 4 and 1/2 years to get a Business Degree. Moved to Atlanta to work for a race marketing company and then a golf company before moving back to the OBX to work for the family running Grits Grill and then back to the Dunes where I am today. I live close by with my best friend, a 10 year old Black Lab, Sam. We hope you choose our spot to visit the Outer Banks.
