Joe is a great host. The house is always very clean and welcoming. The property is within walking distance to the beach and Fish Heads resturant. Definitely would recommend staying here.
Great location. Easy access to beach and restaurants.
We enjoyed our stay. Home was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Home was up to date with many outdoor areas to relax, rest, and enjoy the Outerbanks.
This place is definitely worth the stay. Everything was pretty clean, the host was fast to respond when we had an issue with the wifi, the view of the ocean is very small but it's there. This place was great. The owner left plenty of entertainment like board games, Cornhole boards, and beach equipment. There's a sound machine in each room, which was a nice touch. There's also a telescope on the property, which isn't strong enough to see much but the moon. But, you can use it to see Bodie Island light house from the roof. Outside shower has hot and cold water, which was pretty nice. The beach was never really crowded at the beach access... Unless you go at night, them it's covered in crabs lol. It's only a few minute drive to find plenty of family fun stuff and restaurants.The only things I can really complain about are the mattresses are all extremely firm. Likely, really really firm. It was almost like sleeping in the floor. That's the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. That and the deck boards for the steps going up to the roof top, as well as the roof top deck boards, have seen better days and could use replacing. That and the lack of lighting for the balcony steps/roof deck. But, those were pretty minor issues compared to how great everything else was. Will def add this one to my favorites for my next trip.
We stayed here for the long Memorial Day weekend and it was great! The home was exactly what was advertised and they even had a little bag of essentials waiting for us when we arrived. The check in process is essentially effortless! The host was also great at communicating.
Sealure was great! The walk to the beach was no more than 5 minutes and the water was super refreshing! Most necessities are right up the street, Food lion being maybe 7 minutes down the road! They have all the beach necessities which is very helpful too! Everything was awesome, The outdoor shower water pressure was amazing as well!
Our family of 5 adults enjoyed our 5 day stay at Joe's Sea Lure Cottage. We loved the convenient 5 minute walk to an outstanding beach. The two decks provide so much extra space to spread out and the view on the top was stunning. Fully stocked kitchen and we made use of the grill. Joe is an excellent communicator providing easy check in check out instructions. Thanks so much!
Enjoyed the property and the owner. Great person with open and available lines of communication. Not only was it a beautiful place with great views but the owner makes this a great place to stay.
Beautiful little cottage, all things needed were there.
The rooms were perfect for me and my girls. Well needed getaway for a small family, even with smaller kids. The top deck is beautiful view (if weather had cooperated)
Rooms were neat and clean
The beach cottage had a great location, just a short walk from the beach. In nags head but removed from the busy part of beach road. The house had everything out family needed. Beach cart was a plus. Lots off outside seating for eating seafood in the evenings.
Another great week! We have loved this cottage for 6 years and can’t to return next year! Great location and everything you could need! Thanks Joe!

About the host
Hosted by Joe Tomaszewski
The owners lives in Richmond VA and has been going to Nags Head for over 40 years. We raised two girls crabbing, fishing and playing on the beach. It is a great place for family fun and great memories.
South Nags Head is a great area. The area is quite and is within walking distance of the beach.
Things to do that are close by....
Jockey’s Ridge: The huge sand dune is a great place to walk up to the top. It is very popular for sunsets as the sun appears to set on the water of the sound. Also a big kite flying place and hang gliding.
Party/Head Boats: There are at least two head boats that will take you out for a half day fishing in the inlet. It costs about $45-$60 a person and they give you the rods and bait (squid only). You may want to bring some fresh shrimp to increase your fishing chances. You can bring a cooler, lunch and drink.
1) Ms Broad Creek Head Boat. 708 Harbor Rd, Wachese NC 252-473-9991. If you don’t catch much. O’Neils take out is in the same marina.
2) Ms Oregon Inlet Head Boat. 98 NC 12 Hwy Nags Head, NC 252 564-7905
3) There may be a head boat at Pirates Cove as well, but I don’t have that info. They all go to the inlet.
Other fun things: Jet Skis, Go-Karts, Putt-Putt, Lost Colony Outdoor Play, Manteo Waterfront, Manteo Aquarium, The decks underneath the Bridge to Manteo (turn down the road across from Pirates Cove), Manteo WWI open cockpit plane rides over the beach, Pirates Cove Marina, Walk out on Jennette’s Fishing Pier/Gift Shop, the new Adventure park ropes course (many stories high climbing course) it is right next to the outlet mall at MP 16. Closed toed shoes and nerves of steel required.
What makes this property unique
The cottage backs up to the Federal park and also has easy access to shopping, food and activities. It is very lose to Oregon inlet for boating and charter trips.
More things to do
Oregon Inlet Fishing Ctr Inc: 98 NC Hwy 12, Nags Head, NC 27959 (252) 441-6301 This is the main fishing center for the OBX north of Hatteras. If you go there between 4:00 and 5:00 you can usually see the boats coming in with tuna. You can go there to get the “head” boat, also inshore and off shore charters.
Bodie Island Lighthouse Area: The lighthouse is on route 12 a few miles south of the cottage. You can’t climb up this lighthouse, but you can at the one in Hatteras. To get to the nature area behind the Bodie lighthouse do the following: when you pull into the lighthouse road, stay right on the road and it will take you past a wooden gate. The gate is there to prevent cars going back to the duck lodge, but the road is open to the public for walking. This gate is across the field from the lighthouse, but leads to a nature trail, streams and a good place to see some nature. It’s also a good place to go crabbing. There can be mosquitoes on your walk so sometimes spray helps
The cottage is between Jennette's pier and the Outer Banks Pier. Great locations for fishing and site seeing. The Out banks pier is within walking distance and (1/4 mile) and has a great bar/restaurant on it for kids friendly meals right on the water.
