Contemporary Cottage with Great Views
If you've been dreaming all year about leaving the everyday hustle and bustle behind to get on “island time,” now is your chance! Relaxation right in its name, Island Time is a contemporary oceanside cottage on a private street in the South Creek Acres Community. At less than 500 feet to the nearest access, you'll be able to hit the beach any time of the day with just a short 3-minute walk!

Prepare to throw your schedule away and spend lazy days lounging on the front deck with a gorgeous ocean view or relax on the back deck with a great view of the Bodie Island Lighthouse and surrounding natural marshes of the nature preserve! A large yard is the perfect place for playing outdoor games so be sure to pack a frisbee or your cornhole boards. Island Time enjoys community benefits and since the tennis courts are right next door, it will be easy to extend outdoor playtime!

The mid-level includes the main entry to the home and three of the four bedrooms. A comfortable Queen Master Suite features an attached Full Bathroom with shower. Another Bedroom includes a Full Bed and has access to a hall Bathroom with shower and jetted tub. The third Bedroom contains a Twin Bed and a Bunk Bed and has access to another full-sized hall Bathroom with tub. If you want to soak in the ocean breeze but stay out of the direct sun, a covered back deck is the perfect place to unwind. A laundry room completes the level.

Upstairs, a large open-style living area combines contemporary features and vaulted ceilings with plenty of natural Outer Banks sunshine. You can catch up on your favorite show even while on vacation thanks to the large flat-screen TV in the living area. When it's time to whip up a meal for the family, you'll feel right at home cooking in the spacious kitchen with upgraded, modern appliances. The dining table has space for 8 and doubles as the ideal place to enjoy your favorite board game for family game night. Your dreams will set sail in the large King bedroom that has access to a full-sized Bathroom in the hall. Front and rear sun decks are both accessible from the top-level.

Quiet Location Near Local Attractions
Island Time is located in South Nags Head which is much less crowded than the main part of town but is still within easy driving distance to local restaurants, shopping centers, and historic attractions. In fact, just a mile up the road is the Outer Banks Fishing Pier and Fish Heads Bar & Grill. While the anglers in your group will love trying out their luck from the pier, everyone in your party will enjoy the oceanfront dining and fresh locally-caught seafood. Easily head over to Roanoke Island for the day to visit the site of the Lost Colony and observe sea life at the Aquarium or take a day trip to Cape Hatteras Seashore to explore the towns of Hatteras Island. Since you have a view of the lighthouse, it goes without saying that you should pay it a visit! Less than 5 miles south, stop by the historic Bodie Island Lighthouse and climb to the top for incredible views of the sound and surrounding marshes. No matter what you do, time is never wasted at the beach so book Island Time today and begin your getaway to paradise!

    We truly enjoyed our visit to the OBX and this place made that possible. The home is nicely decorated and in a very peaceful area. Everything was as advertised. The appliances and beds are top quality. The short 2 min walk to the amazing and clean beach was key for our stay.

    The property was perfect for our stay. One of the mattress covers was very dirty, I reached out to the property contact and someone came out right away to clean the cover. There were also some dead flys/wasps and live wasps in the house. The screen doors also kept coming off of the hinges. Other than that the property was perfect for our stay.

    The location was excellent and quick walk to the beach. Just far enough down for privacy. However there was construction on a brand new house right next door and it was very loud Friday and Saturday. The beds were just ok. Not sure why places haven’t invested in memory foam mattresses yet. The a/c did not work on the bottom floor with the other three bedrooms. The pillows were awful. We went out and bought our own.

    The property was beautiful and was as the pictures indicated. We liked the privacy of the property and close proximity to the beach and pool. We contacted the property management company (Donna) with an issue with the lock and they were very helpful and responsive. Reported a couple of maintenance issues (minor repairs that needed to be completed but did not affect our stay). It would have been beneficial to know in advance that there is a house being constructed next door. House was supplied with the necessary kitchen items. Additional glassware and silverware would be helpful. Enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property.

    We enjoyed the close proximity to the beach and ease of getting all our gear to and from the beach. Overall our stay was great. Fridge/ freezer had not been wiped out prior to our arrival and one of the bedrooms had goldfish under the bed and a soda bottle behind the door at arrival. There wasn’t a broom or vacuum to keep the floors tidy throughout our stay. We also would have appreciated some extra blankets or throws. A maintenance man was in the house one night when we came home without any notice or communication from the management company which we were unprepared for.

    Absolutely perfect house for our stay! Exactly as described, clean, and ready to go. The house was able to hold our entertainment on days with chilly and rainy weather between the huge upstairs living area, cornhole, and the hot tub. Would absolutely book here again without hesitation!

    It was a wonderful property which accommodated our family of eight very well. We recycle routinely and were disappointed there was no recycle container at our property. Consequently, recycle materials were put in the garbage. We also could have used more silverware as were short on spoons especially. Upon arrival Saturday the grass needed cutting and that wasn't done until Friday. Other than these issues, we enjoyed the house and its accessibility to the beach. The children loved the basketball goal. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets on the spacious back deck and ocean views on the front deck. The Wi-Fi was strong and accommodated all our devices. Online information through Seaside Vacations was excellent and timely. The Happy Stays app was very useful. Thanks for a lovely and delightful time.

    This property is managed by a thorough real estate group who has the details worked out nicely. Further, the home was in an awesome location and ended up being just as described and pictured in VRBO!
