About this property

Amazing Little Cottage for many Reasons

Don’t let the outside of this cottage fool you.
Staged in a perfect location, just 2 blocks from the beach, with the beach access being seen from the driveway. It's great for a family of 6 or less, this cottage is in one of the most desired beach neighborhoods of Nags Head, and is priced for those who want the feel of classic quality hidden behind the grey exterior walls of a typical ‘beach box’. Peak through the windows, and you’ll see a professionally designed interior with all the comforts you desire for your relaxing beach vacation.

Furnishings and artwork are well appointed, along with a well-equipped kitchen for those who enjoy cooking, and plenty of interior space for all members of the family, even on a rainy day at the beach! Enjoy central HVAC, cable, internet, breakfast bar, white cabinetry in the kitchen, and built-ins in the dining area. The details in this cottage are well thought out and provided.

You'll find 3 bedrooms, 2Q beds and 2 twins in third bedroom, 1 1/2 baths,*BRING your own linens, an open space family room/kitchen/dining area, and large covered social area below the cottage for outdoor gatherings. Included in this space is an enclosed outdoor shower that most people find much more enjoyable than indoors after a sunny day on the beach.

The location is perfect with the beach access just up the street, grocery store, specialty coffee shops, and other eating options within a short walk or bike ride, 2 adult bikes included, as well as the bike/running path along the 35 mph beach road.

Other highlights are the wonderful screened porch with wooden rockers, picnic table on the back deck, and large wooden swing. As well, feel free to use the washer and dryer in the laundry room!
Unfortunately we no longer rent to "young adults" including college students. We rent Sunday to Sunday in the summer months. We have a 3 night minimum for holiday weekends.
We are less expensive than other cottages due to no cleaning fees. We trust all to cleanup after themselves. The typical, vacuum, clean fridge out, put away clean dishes, clean bathrooms and tidy up. Our departure crew checks behind and does deep cleaning. $100 will be withheld from the deposit when the basics are not completed.
For those who want the look of a large expensive beach house, yet the smaller price, this is the cottage for you. We have raised our three boys making memories in this cottage and hope you will do the same with your family. Please email me with any questions and I’ll get back to you quickly! Penny

Great Stay while in the OBX
We really enjoyed our stay in the OBX in this rental. Location was good in relation to the beach, just a short walk, which seemed longer than it was with the hot sun carrying all your beach items. The house was clean and ready well before our intended check in. The owners were great texting us and letting us know that if we needed anything to let them know. Just like always the week went fast and we had a great time. I would recommend this rental. They even followed up after our stay to make sure everything was good. Thanks Again.

About the host

Hosted by Penny Barham

Host profile image
We live in Portsmouth VA, having raised three wonderful sons, and continue to vacation in our beach cottage where new memories are made each year. Both my husband and I grew up visiting the Outer Banks, and believe it is still one of the best places for family vacations without the neon lights. We hope you do too!

Why they chose this property

We purchased this quaint beach cottage years ago as a simple, manageable, cozy home large enough for our family, yet small enough to ensure we spent time together rather than in the large expansive homes where people are separated by massive sq footage. It was also, and still remains, the best deal in the neighborhood!

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the location of this cottage....... the close proximity to the beach as well as the independent restaurants, shops, and unique attractions that give Nags Head its character. That's why we spend as much time here throughout the year as possible!
