* Due to the nature of the Outer Banks, dunes and amount of beach between ocean-front properties and the ocean can accumulate and/or disappear very quickly. Pictures of beach-front properties may not accurately reflect the size of the dune or beach due to such fluctuations.
We were ecstatic when we heard that the well-received, dog-friendly, ocean-front rental home, 315, was re-entering Cove Realty's Rental Program! Several years ago, guests were saddened to hear that the then new owners of 315, originally known as "Beck," decided to move the home to a different rental company that they had their other home with. Well, not only has this OBX Ocean-Front returned, but it came back with a list of aesthetical upgrades as well!
Now known as "Serendipity," 315 features a modernized interior with stainless steel kitchen appliances, fresh interior painting, updated flooring, and tasteful furniture and décor throughout. The three bedrooms offer bedding for a variety of family sizes and the Queen Master Bedroom features its own, private bathroom! With an ocean-facing great room, your family will enjoy gatherings by the kitchen, then open up the slider door to an ocean breeze and welcoming beach-side deck.
Being located in South Nags Head, you'll find relatively less-crowded and wide beaches, and the area is minutes from the Bodie Island Lighthouse, Outer Banks fishing pier (featuring the Fish Heads restaurant), 4 x 4 beaches, and Old Oregon Inlet Marina, while only a short drive to the heart of Nags Head, featuring an abundance of grocery stores, restaurants, Outlet Mall, golf (including miniature golf), sound-side water sports, and so much more!
Again, we welcome 315 back into our rental program where future guests will continue to make memories for years to come!
And don’t forget to bring your “extended family,” as "Serendipity" allows up to two dogs with an additional $150 spray fee! Please visit our website link for dog restrictions, policies, and local information https://www.coverealty.com/outer-banks-pet-information.
* This house allows dogs for an extra fee of $150 plus tax. If bringing a dog, please contact Cove Realty so that a pet spray may be set up after your stay.
** To keep rental costs down, this OBX home does not provide linens. However, a linen package can be provided for an extra fee. Please contact Cove Realty of Nags Head for more information on this home's linen rental package. Also, Cove Realty is a Green company that limits excessive waste. As such, linens, toiletry items, cleaning supplies, and so forth, are not supplied at the rental home, so please be mindful to bring these with you or be ready to purchase upon arrival to the Outer Banks.

We really enjoyed our stay. The property was recently updated vanity sinks, and fixtures were all new including commodes. Everything was in good working order. Parking was adequate. Location was perfect. It was right at the foot of the sand dunes on the other side of the sand was the ocean. Nothing to complain about really.

Cute cottage but
We are a family of 5 adults, the cottage was too small for us. The primary bedroom and bathroom were tight moving around. Not recommended for 2 couples as the walls were paper thin. Best suited for a small family with young children.
Kitchen very well stocked. New covers for all beds were very much appreciated.

Inaccurate listing as no view of ocean- only back of sand dune. Only 1 chair on back porch. No linens or towels when we arrived. Tiny second bathroom.

Thank you for your feedback on this rental home. We're sorry to hear that you encountered issues during your stay, and for future guests, if you ever have any problems before or during your vacation, please do not hesitate to give us a call or Email so that we can immediately remedy any issues to ensure you and your family a pleasant retreat. While we see that linens and towels were not immediately available to you on arrival, we greatly apologize that the delivery service was running behind due to traffic and were delivered to you later in the day. We have also sent maintenance to inspect the ocean-side porch, to ensure that multiple chairs are still present for future guests in inclusion to the two benches that are built into the decking.
We would also like to reply to the views of the ocean where, as seen in the photos, this home is protected by a natural dune in front of the home, which serves to protect the rental from ocean over washes during hurricanes and major storms. While the view of the ocean is limited, the home's ocean-front location means you have immediate access to the beach.
We hope that, aside from these issues, you were able to enjoy all the Outer Banks has to offer!

Dirty and bugs. Paper thin walls, hard furniture. We left 2 days early. Perfect location, but this “house” needs to be torn down and rebuilt.
