The area-
From this home located between the highways near MP 11, you will enjoy the beach and so much more! When through at the beach you can walk- no need to drive - to find fitness, fun, shopping and food. While staying at this home you are just steps away from so many amenities, including the following:
- Dowdy park - two blocks south at route 158 and Bonnet st - is probably the best playground on the Outer Banks! It offers a great variety of imaginative play equipment, pickleball and basketball courts, and a large open field for running off some energy. At Dowdy on certain days you can also find a farmers’ market, free concerts, and yoga classes. Check the nagsheadnc.gov website and search for Dowdy park to find a schedule of events.
- Great coffee shops! Waveriders is in Pirates’ Quay, an easy 1/4 mile walk south on the other side of 158. Great breakfast and lunch offerings! Another easily accessible and great coffee shop is Morning View, just about a block north on 158 on the same side as the cottage.
- Seafood and great prepared food -Also in Pirates’ Quay, Greentail’s Seafood Marketand Kitchen.
- Yoga at The Studio, Outer Banks, Pirates’ Quay
-Bakery -Almost Heaven, Pirates’ Quay
- Fitness - YWCA - Less than 1/4 mile walk south on 158. Gym fitness classes, indoor/outdoor pools, skateboard ramp. Guest passes available. Check the website ymcashr.org for rates

- Shopping - The French Door, The Secret Spot Surf Shop, Outer Banks Boarding Company, Gen Z Art and Gifts (hand-made items by local crafters in Pirate’s Quay) Super Wings and more are only a short walk away. Less than a mile away on Va Dare Trail is Sea Green Gallery - one of the coolest shops on the banks carrying unique beachy items.
- Fishing - NC license is required. Surf fishing is allowed along the beach or from the Barnes St beach access. You can walk south down the beach or along the bike path to Nags Head pier and do some pier fishing or have a meal in their restaurant overlooking the ocean.
The above are just a few of the things you can access from this house without contending with driving! You will likely want to check out some famous sights as well and you will find they are not far away.
Within easy driving distance you will find the Wright Brothers national Memorial (just over 3 miles north), Jockey’s Ridge State Park (1 and 1/2 miles south) Jeanette’s Pier (on beach road, 5.7 miles south), shopping outlets (5.3 miles south) and restaurants and shops too numerous to mention.
