Family vacation

The house was comfortable, well-supplied, and in a great location - walking distance to beach, shops, and restaurants. We appreciated the beach supplies (chairs, umbrella, toys, etc), as well as the easy access to EV charging.

A great visit to the Outer Banks

Our family of six (including three sons (ages 20, 16, 13), and daughter (age 9)), really enjoyed staying at this location. The location was key as it was a short walk to the beach (less than two blocks with a public access point to the beach). In addition, the location on the northern edge of Nags Head allows convenient access to all of Nags Head, Manteo, Kill Devil Hills, and Kitty Hawk for dining and other adventures. The house was very clean and a perfect fit for our family. The two bathrooms and outdoor shower allowed us to get ready quickly. The kitchen and dining room table accommodates eating in while the living room provides ample space for everyone. The owners are extremely kind and provided recommendations and advice as we planned our trip. Since we flew to Norfolk and drove to the Outer Banks, the beach chairs, boogie boards, sand toys, and umbrella in the storage shed were sincerely appreciated and helped make our days at the beach even more fun!

About the host

Hosted by Doug and Cindy Carpenter

We have vacationed in Nags Head since we were teenagers. It's a great getaway! For many years our vacations were spent in a large oceanfront cottage with family. One year our family group did not go to Nags Head so we decided to rent a 3BR, 2BA beach box located in the proximity of our cottage. We enjoyed the quality time with our family of four with parents joining us for a few nights. After that vacation, we realized that we didn't have to be directly on the oceanfront to enjoy the beach. That is when we decided to buy our own beach cottage. The best memory-making investment ever!

Why they chose this property

We LOVE the location! We're not oceanfront, but about as close as you can get without being there. We are centrally located on a side street off of main traffic routes with a direct public access away from crowded hotels and condos. Sometimes we are back and forth from the beach a half dozen or more times a day easily. No problem if you forget something, need to go back to the house for a potty break or lunch/snacks.

What makes this property unique

Our home is located on a corner lot so you're not pinned in between two other cottages. During your stay, you'll be able to spend quality time with your closest friends or family and still find some quiet time if you need it. If a rainstorm comes, don't worry, one of the best places to hang out is the carport area under the house where you can read a book or listen to the rain and look for rainbows.
