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.

    The unit is the perfect size for 2, 3, or 4 people. It is pleasantly decorated and very clean. The bathroom is small, which did not bother us (the shower is very clean and roomy, the other fixtures are just very close together), but might be an issue for some. The kitchen has all the essentials. The location is great -- we were able to walk to lots of places, and the beach is just across the street, another easy walk. The owners/management are responsive and pleasant. We would come back.

    This a good location and a good value. The proximity to the road made it a bit noisy at times, but not a big negative. Overall, the property was well appointed and we would stay there again.

    Better than pictured, ideal location and great hospitality and service from Patrick! Drove in from Chicago and arrived a little early. Patrick was able to accommodate an earlier check-in and was a pleasure to deal with throughout our trip. There were a few paddleboards available for his guests, WiFi, cable TV and Patrick even gave us a few generous vouchers to his family's restaurants. The unit we stayed in was very nicely remodeled with beach motif, clean, fully furnished, AC blew very cold, was located right in the center of the OBX, a 2 minute walk from the beach access points and offered great privacy/relaxation. ...not to mention MUCH roomier and less expensive than a hotel room. Wasn't sure what to expect before arriving, but our expectations were exceeded and we'd definitely make a reservation with Patrick again for future trips. I definitely recommend booking this unit and avoiding the overpriced corporate hotels!

    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.

    It was a nice stay with the Dunes restaurant in the back. The food was awesome as well as the staff. Getting to the beach was a quick short walk, which was nice, it’s close to a shopping mall as well as Jeanette’s pier.We would definitely stay again.Communicating with Patrick was easy and he responded real quick, basically just check in and check out information. We had no problems with the property at all.

    Kitchen supplies very minimal. Can opener didn’t work no scissors no sharp knives to cut any thing. Definitely need more coffee, mugs, and throw blankets or extra blankets for the beds. The only other thing that I thought was misrepresented was the laundry. The laundry room, outback, needing coins, and was very sketchy and scary in there for a single woman when no one‘s around!

Would definitely rent again!

    Patrick was great—responded right away when we had questions. The duplex was bright and comfortable and just a 2 minute walk to the beach. We enjoyed the rocking chairs on the porch. Our main recommendation: install a towel bar and a hand towel ring in the bathroom. (The adjoining unit had them.) Hooks by the door for jackets would be nice too. We had a great time.
