Photos and Description of the Nags Head vacation house rental
House, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Full Baths (Sleeps 4-5)

Enjoy stunning sunsets over the water from this hidden Nags Head gem! The perfect beach getaway for the nature-loving couple or small family. Water views abound from almost every room and it's just 2-3 minutes by car to free beach parking and access onto the best stretch of beach in Nags Head. This house is fantastic any time of year because of the outstanding views. It maintains a quiet and calm feel even in the busiest months. It's the perfect beach cottage for nature lovers, birders, hikers, paddlers, cyclists and anyone who just loves the outdoors (whether you're inside or out!) The view can be enjoyed while sitting comfortably inside or under the covered porch as well.

There is a little known, but lovely and large, white-sand, secluded soundside beach, just a short walk down the street, with calm, shallow water that's great for little ones, swimming or a sunset picnic dinner.

The Perfect Location: The cottage itself is so peaceful---all you will hear is the call of the osprey, the gentle lapping of water coming ashore, and the lovely sounds of nature. However, you are just a few minutes from Nags Head's best restaurants, groceries, and all the beach action if needed. Swim, fish, paddle, or windsurf just steps from the cottage! Hike along the shore up to Jockey's Ridge for a 360 view of the Outerbanks, taking in both the ocean and the sound at once! It's the perfect walk--just 12 minutes to the top of the ridge from the house.

Whether you sit and relax on our water view decks or do your yoga stretches there, don't forget to take in all the wildlife around you.

Incredible Sunsets and Water Views amid Nature: Pelicans diving for their meals, bunnies nibbling the grasses, osprey and kingfishers cruising the shoreline, sometimes even pods of porpoises can be seen in the sound!

If you're in the mood for the ever-changing Atlantic Ocean, somedays crashing blue, other days green and gently rolling, the beach is at it's best at the 13 mile post. The Atlantic shore is pristine here, free of the crowds you'll find in Kitty Hawk and Kill Devil Hills. The 13 mile post is lined with Nags Head's most beautiful old homes, known as Historic Cottage Row; it is the true heart of Nags Head. The early morning or late afternoon light upon these cottages is sublime. Nags Head's first church, historic St. Andrews-By-The-Sea, is located just a few blocks away from our cottage, directly between the ocean and the sound, and welcomes everyone for tours or services.

Our beach cottage is the perfect couple's getaway.

Wine, Dine and Relax Comfortably: Nice touches: quality wine glasses, water views from the indoor showers, 42'' TV, ceiling fans in every room, linen napkins/tablecoths, complimentary curbside recycling (only 5% of Nags Head cottages have curbside recycling), great windows for bird watching, quick and easy deluxe gas grill for impromptu meals, wonderful main room with high ceilings, skylights and large windows with a lovely water view across the sound as far as the eye can see. It's a very special house, come once and you'll want to come again and again.

Wonderful Cottage on the Sound

5 of 5
Submitted: May 11, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
We always have a wonderful time here - so peaceful. Clean, comfy cottage with everything we need to experience the real essence of OBX including beautiful views from inside and out! Perfectly secluded yet just minutes from all the best OBX has to offer. We'd love to come to Pam & Jonathon's place any time of the year! No matter what season, we'll always get that one of a kind feeling of a true Outer Banks getaway. You can tell these owners really know OBX with the info they have here to guide folks to some of the best spots around. We hope to be back soon!

Owner's Response: Thanks Scott, we are so glad you both enjoy the cottage. It does remind us (and guests who have been going to the Outer Banks for decades) of how Nags Head used to be years ago...tranquil, relaxing and picturesque. Come again any time. All our best to you!

Relaxing vacation. Best location in Nags Head.

Thank you Pam and Jonathan for opening your wonderful cottage up to my family. We had a blast visiting the sand dunes, walking along the beaches on the sound and ocean side and enjoying the sunsets with wine and cheese every night. Our son James (9 months) loved the trip as much as we did - especially splashing in the waves on those sunny October days! The cottage was perfect and everything we were looking for. I don't think there is a better location on the outer banks. Thanks again!

Owner's Response: Thanks Mark and Jodi, we don't think there is a better spot on the Outer Banks either. It's hard to find such a peaceful area with as nice water views and still close to everything. We're so glad ya'll got to go and especially that James got to play in the water! It's amazing how warm the water stays well into October or even early November. It's warmer in November than in peak summer in New England! I just sent you back your deposit a few days ago with a note saying to bring James back when he could play in the ocean but apparently he loves the water already. That's so cool!
Thanks for everything and come back again. Best of luck to you all.

The cottage is a wonderful place to stay if you have a family or just for two! The cottage was clean, comfortable, well supplied with any thing we could possibly need during our stay! It was very relaxing and I have to admit my favorite spot was the Upper Deck so I could see the beautiful sunsets or just enjoy the overall view of the Sound! The sunsets were breathtaking! We loved the information that is provided about the sites and attractions that we could enjoy during our stay. We loved walking to the Dunes; the Oceanfront is a five minute car ride, enjoyed the Wright Brothers Museum; the Lost Colony Village; Roanoke Island Aquarium; and the restaurants that were recommended were fabulous (thank you)! What a wonderful experience we had at the Outer Banks! It was our first time, and we are looking forward to returning!
Owner's Response: Thank you so much for the wonderful note you left in our owner's booklet at the cottage--it has great ideas and details that our guests (and we) have already benefited from! My husband's favorite spot is the upper deck overlooking the sound too. To have the sound views with the ocean just a couple minutes away is such a blessing. I'm so glad you enjoyed yourselves and do hope you'll come back again one day. Thanks again for taking the time to share your great ideas in our cottage guest book!

We had such a wonderful time staying in your cottage. It's very convenient to everything and the house was spotless when we arrived. It was so quiet and peaceful. The sunsets were absolutely amazing. We would definitely recommend this cottage to folks looking to get away from everything and just relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. Pam was great to work with. We can't wait to come back!

I'm so glad ya'll were able to get away and enjoy the Outer Banks and some nice sunsets over the water. Spring is such a nice time of year. Thanks again for the great pictures you took while there! Come back anytime.

A Great Retreat!

Submitted: June 26, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
A wonderful place to relax and enjoy Nature, with fantastic soundside views in a quieter part of Nagshead. Great for a small family or one or two couples. It was my first trip to the Outer Banks and I am so glad that I picked this rental cottage. The owners are fantastic to work with and the place was everything they promised and more. Lots of information on the history of Nagshead thoughtfully left by the owners to give renters a more meaningfull experience. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the more commercial side of Nagshead, then this is the place for you.
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Sightseeing, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: Thanks Becky and Mike! We're so glad you were able to experience and appreciate our historical little neighborhood along the sound. It reminds me of Nags Head when I was a kid. Our spot feels like a harbor of tranquility during the busier summer months while still being just a couple of minutes from the beach, grocery, restaurants and bakery. So glad your daughter came too and that you all got to relax together and enjoy the nature. Come back anytime! And thanks.
