Welcome to Seahorse, a bright and inviting three-bedroom, 2.5-bath townhouse located in the peaceful Cottages at the Cape community of Buxton. This charming coastal retreat offers the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and Outer Banks charm—ideal for families, friends, and beach-loving pups.
Located just steps from the beach and within view of the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Seahorse offers a classic Hatteras Island experience.

The living area offers plenty of space to relax after a day in the sun, while the well-equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare fresh seafood dinners or picnic-style lunches for the beach.
Upstairs, you'll find three cozy bedrooms: a king master suite with a private bathroom, a queen bedroom, and a twin bedroom—each offering a relaxing retreat after a fun day of exploring. Additional amenities include a private washer/dryer, central AC, fast WiFi, and a convenient outdoor shower for rinsing off sandy toes.
Flexible Stay Options With flexible check-in and short-stay availability, you can arrive any day of the week and stay as few as 3 nights in summer or 2 nights in the off-season—perfect for a spontaneous OBX escape or a peaceful coastal getaway.
