About this property

Semi oceanfront location with a 3 min walk to the ocean and Gift Card

  • For the start of 2026 we will be offering dining gift cards for early booked stays into the First of May.
    This lovely two bedroom, one bath, is located on the beach road in Nags Head at mile post 16. There are two beach access close enough you don' t need to drive.


    We have had more fun checking guests in personally and telling them about our Outer Banks than you know and can't wait for future guests to come enjoy any one of our places. Mom made them super cute and beach themed. If you wanted to go on vacation with some other families but like your space also, we have the spot for you and our family restaurant , the Dunes is right behind you for breakfast, dinner, carry out and a full bar with no driving required. Our places are safe and secure with storage for beach gear.
    In the event of a hurricane or threat of one and you need to cancel. Not a problem! We give a full refund. We do not wish to profit from a storm and we will hope you can rebook at a future date and pick us and Nags Head year after year.


    The beach accesses
    By close they are 50 yards on each side. The one to the north does have an out door shower and foot wash, but there is also a water hose on the north side of the house. If is blowing be sure to wash off your car. There is a spacious front porch to enjoy your coffee and catch a glimpse of the ocean and a back deck for a cocktail and a sunset you won't forget. Want to bring your boat? Not a problem. We have plenty of room to put even the biggest of trailer-able boats. There is lots to do. A 1000 foot pier, Jennette's, operated by the North Carolina Aquarium, is half a mile away for fishing and just to walk. Putt putt, go carts, and jet skis are across the street on the sound side, along with a public access. There are 10 restaurants within 3 miles. Fishing charters are available within a short drive down to Pirates Cove Marina. Nags Head Golf Links is 1 mile away with links style golf at its finest. Need someone to play with? Just let me know! They also gave me some discount cards. Hatteras ferry dock is an hour a way to the island of Ocracoke. My Family owns and operates the Dunes Restaurant for the past 34 years. We love the area and know you will have a great time staying here with us in Nags Head.

    On Roanoke Island you will find a bunch of stuff to do. One is the North Carolina Aquarium. Its one of several in the NC system and also hooked to Jennetts Pier. Its a good go to for the whole family, I like to take a date there to kill some time on a cloudy day. Lots of animals and fish and even a jelly fish viewing. For the price its worth is. There is also the Lost Colony play that recreates the first English settlement in 1587 and what they think happened. It only plays in summer though. Most of the actors are college students in preforming arts. It has true story behind it, Indians and gun fights, Singing and Dancing, and great costumes. Its 20 for any seat and 25 or 30 and you get to go back stage.
    In downtown Manteo there are shops from fine art to beach stuff, 4 restaurants, one with a brewery, a distillery, a child play ground, a replica of a light house, my grandad was stationed on the real one, a historic boat building shop, some charter boats for hire, a pirate ship, and the oldest family run movie theater, that is only 7 per person and they have great popcorn.

Really great spot close to the beach, shops, a grocery store, and various restaurants. The host was very helpful and accommodating! My friend and I were very comfortable, and we will book there again. Only suggestion would be adding some throw blankets (since we didn’t pack them for a short trip), but that was still a super minor qualm. We had a wonderful time!

Loved this property. It was in the perfect location and just what you would expect of a beach cottage type home. It had all of the supplies that were needed, including linens. We had to contact the host because of an internet problem, and he was absolutely wonderful to work with. If I were to go back to Nags Head, I would definitely stay here again. It was a wonderful place to come back to and relax on the porch after venturing out for the day.

Great Vrbo in Nags Head, NC

We had a wonderful stay at this Vrbo in Nags Head. This is a small unit that was perfect for three adults (a single and a married couple). The owner Patrick and his family went out of their way to make our vacation comfortable and memorable. The next time I go to the Nags Head area I will try to obtain my lodging at Patrick's Vrbo. Thanks! AAAAA+++++
