About this property

Pookie + Bubba's is now booking for Spring/Summer 2024! We are oceanside/"between the highways" and dog friendly (2 dogs max). If you are looking for less than the minimum required, feel free to message me and we can try to make it work!

★ "We had nothing to do but relax."

This classic 3 bedroom, 2 bath oceanside Nags Head beach cottage is the perfect getaway for family, friends or couples who appreciate a vintage vibe and nautical decor! This cottage boasts outdoor living at it's finest - one screened in patio off the kitchen, a porch off of the dining room with brand new EZE Breeze windows, a porch off of the king bedroom and ample hangout space under the house. This is a great home for those who like to live the simple life while at the beach. Our new outdoor shower is the perfect way to end your day on the beach. Both of the full bathrooms were completely renovated in January 2023. All guests staying at Pookie + Bubba's will have access to Nags Head YMCA Pool + Fitness Center (.3 Miles from cottage). See below for more information.

Located on a quiet cul de sac and only a 5 minute walk to Bonnett Street Beach access (lifeguarded beach access, complete with showers and restrooms), the location can't be beat! We manage and clean the home ourselves - you will not find a cleaner rental home! We are considered "oceanside" which does not require you to cross a major highway to access the beach.

Pookie + Bubba's is a block away from the new, 5 acre Dowdy Park! There is a great playground for kids, basketball, bocce ball and pickle ball courts. In the summer, Dowdy has been home to a weekly farmers/artisans market.

In addition to this great new park - we are within walking distance to Tortuga's Lie, Lucky 12 Tavern, Galaxy Mini Golf, Morningview Coffee Shop, The Spot Ice Cream, Nags Head YMCA, Waveriders Deli and of course, the BEACH!

Great location for a low key family trip to OBX

Location was fantastic even though not directly on the beach—our young kids happily walked the short distance to the beach and back and it was nice not to have to cross any significantly busy roads to do so. Bonus that the closest beach access was guarded and had bathrooms, showers, and changing rooms, as well as a decent surf break (there were frequently surfing lessons nearby) and boogie boarding break. There were often open parking spaces at the beach access as well, but we walked every time. The house felt well-loved and well-cared for and has a lot of character—our young kids loved making up stories about the fish and waterfowl on the walls. The kitchen had all of the basic necessities and comforts. Outdoor shower was perfect for rinsing off the kids on the way home from a day in the sand. The street was quiet and a dead end, so no through traffic/traffic noise to worry about—felt very safe to let our kids play out in the yard. A few nearby restaurants, coffee shop, ice cream, and grocery store—even a cute little mini golf course on the way to the beach. Property manager was helpful and very easy to communicate with. As a family of six we may outgrow the space as our kids get older (house has 2 queen beds and one king bed), but we would happily return until then! Thank you for a wonderful, relaxing OBX vacation!

Great Property

From beginning to end, this was an awesome VRBO experience. Our host, Amanda, was awesome. She contacted me a few days before the trip, during the trip, and after the trip. The home far exceeded our expectations. My favorite part of the home was the sunroom, but the outdoor shower and living space below the cottage was a great place to relax as well. We took our 9.5 year old Yorkie poo and he had an amazing time as well. The outdoor shower was perfect, as we could clean him off before bringing him back inside! 10 out of 10 stars!!
