Miss Agona | Historic Cottage in Downtown Manteo
Welcome to Miss Agona, a charming historic cottage located in the heart of downtown Manteo. Just a 4-minute walk from the waterfront district, this cozy retreat places guests steps away from some of the best dining, entertainment, and local experiences on Roanoke Island. Whether you’re spending the day exploring downtown shops, catching a summer concert at Festival Park /), heading out for a fishing trip, or relaxing after a beach day in Nags Head, Miss Agona offers the perfect mix of comfort, convenience, and classic coastal character. Don't forget to catch a movie or live show at the historic Pioneer Theater! With its prime location and welcoming atmosphere, this cottage is ideal for couples, families, or anyone looking to experience the authentic charm that makes Manteo such a special destination.
Tucked along the waterfront on historic Roanoke Island, Manteo is one of the Outer Banks’ best-kept secrets — a coastal town filled with charm, history, and small-town character that’s hard to fake and even harder to leave. Unlike the faster pace of the beach towns, Manteo invites visitors to slow down and enjoy strolls along the scenic boardwalk, locally owned boutiques, art galleries, bookstores, and waterfront restaurants overlooking Shallowbag Bay. Just a short walk from downtown, guests can catch a movie at the beloved Pioneer Theater, enjoy fresh seafood and waterfront views at Poor Richard's Sandwich Shop, sip local craft beer at Lost Colony Brewery, or experience upscale coastal dining at 1587 Lounge. Guests can also spend evenings enjoying live music and performances at Roanoke Island Festival Park or take in the area’s rich history through attractions like the Elizabethan Gardens, Fort Raleigh National Historic Site, and The Lost Colony outdoor drama. From fishing charters and dolphin tours to kayaking, paddleboarding, and easy access to the beaches of Nags Head, Manteo offers the perfect blend of Outer Banks adventure and relaxed coastal living.

Reviewer Comments:
Great place for a quiet getaway in Manteo. The house is nicely renovated and very comfortable. It is a short 5-minute walk to Manteo and a short 10-15 minute drive to the rest of OBX. Would definitely come back.
