Outstanding location

The cottage at Nags Head was ideal for our stay. While it could benefit from some updates, its location is outstanding, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time in this cozy cottage. We would love to return.

Sea salt cottage. Lovely ocean view

Ocean and sunrise right outside door. Over all nice, there had been a storm with storm surge. I thought we would have more beach to walk on but water was rolling under cottage, which made it a little unnerving. I would not advise going if there is a storm. Wish the weather had been better to make our stay more enjoyable

Can’t beat the beach

I’m not a beach person so having a beachfront spot is key to regularly escaping the beach. No hauling stuff back and forth, great for independent kids who you can still keep an eye on when they want to go to the beach. Clean and perfect temp community pool. Place is great with the right mindset, certainly not luxurious, but worked for our family of 4 plus pup. SO MANY TOWELS (better quality and cleanliness than I expected) made this work for us.

We have been in this cottage for many years now. Friends have been in fancier homes, but this has a great view and an old time beach cottage flavor. It is why we come down here. Already booked for next season!

Barrett Crossman family reunion

We had an amazing stay at this beachfront cottage in Nags Head! The location was perfect, right on the beach, and being able to bring our dogs along made it even better. The cottage was cozy and well-equipped, providing everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The views of the ocean were breathtaking, especially during sunrise and sunset. We loved being able to walk out the door and onto the sand within seconds. Overall, a fantastic experience – we can't wait to come back

Must Stay

You could not get any closer to the beach/water. This was the perfect stay for my husband and I and our two children. Plenty of room for all of us. We stayed for Memorial Day weekend and the weather and views did not disappoint. Knowing all you had to do was walk down the stairs and your feet were in the sand made it stress free with two children. The beach was not crowded at all which was perfect. The cottage was also close to many shops and restaurants making it the perfect location. I highly recommend staying here and would love to stay here again!

We actually cried when we left!

We LOVED this place. Right on the ocean, dog friendly and clean. It’s about 15 minutes to everything you can possibly imagine. We had a great time. The only thing I’d say is that the 1/2 bath is very small and there was a big stain on one of the mattresses that we didn’t know until we stripped the bed upon checkout. 100% would stay here again.

Great location . Sand dunes were so close to house not even a 4 wheel drive could get in the driveway, even if there was a driveway. Had to park at pool house. Blinds were broken and tv was awful.

Great view

House is right on the water. Porch is very nice to sit out on. Has a dog gate so the dogs could not get off the porch which is nice. Nicely stocked with all of the amenities that you would need to use, pots and pans, knives, etc. Keurig and coffee pot. TV with more stations than you would actually need. Master bedroom has a king bed very firm.

Excellent location

Location is top notch. Direct access to the waves. Would be nice to have a walkway from the driveway to the home that was not all sand. Beds were absolutely horrible. Very hard and the one in the bunk room leans very bad. I understand you pay for the location, however for the price of a weeks stay, some things could be improved. the shower handles were broken, mold on the shower curtain, kitchen cabinet falling off. All the dresser drawers were falling apart or stuck. Would also be nice to have kid friendly dishes and cups. Not all glass.

Location, Location, Location

This house is located in the perfect place. The porch with a screened-in section was fabulous. We also like the layout of the house inside. It could use some updating like the sofas and beds that were a bit uncomfortable. We had some issues with the housekeeping (moldy shower curtain and the family before us had a dog that must have had an accident on the carpet). Vacasa sent someone out immediately to fix these issues and was very responsive.

Great location -everything else was bad

The location couldn't be better. The back deck is literally on the beach and I loved the outdoor shower to wash the sand off before going in the house. There REALLY needs to be some money re-invested into updating the quality of the house. The furniture (couches, beds, appliances...) were all terrible. Parking there was sketchy because you are literally parking on a sand dune. We never got stuck in the driveway, but I was concerned every time we had to leave. If you can't park in the driveway, there isn't anywhere else to park. The shower drain was slow and I asked maintenance to come fix it. I asked them to notify me before coming in to fix it and never heard from anybody about whether it was fixed. It's not fun to shut the water off while lathering the soap so the water doesn't build up in the tub...ick! This place would be so much better if money were put back into making things nicer.

*incredible* location but could use some updates

If you’re looking for a beachside retreat, this is absolutely it. You are quite literally on the beach. However, with that, comes some struggles with getting into the house & parking. While the listing says you need a 4x4, even with that, there would have been no hope, as it was an actual dune in place of a driveway. Luckily we were able to park by the pool, and it was a short walk to the house, but you are required to go over the dune to enter the house. We had no issues, but I do wonder how anyone not completely physically able would access the house. Aside from that, if you are planning to spend most of your time at the beach, this house is perfect. There are plenty of rooms and loads of sleeping space, but everything could have benefited from some updating. Overall, I would likely book again as it is a great deal for the price.

Overrated

For the cost, this VRBO-listed house is not worth it. Sure, it’s right on the beach. That’s the best part, especially if you like to hear the waves 24-7. However, parking was a challenge. The parking area is covered with sand and you must go up a sand hill to get to it. The outside of the house is in poor condition. On one side, a piece of siding flaps in the wind and makes a ruckus of a noise at night. Inside at first glance is decent. Then you notice how dirty the air vents are, the backed up sink in the main bathroom, and the torn pillow with stuffing coming out. The so-called bathroom off the main bedroom isn’t big enough to actually sit down on the toilet, and it can’t service the other bedrooms. The bathtub faucets aren’t attached to the bathtub so they move around when you try to turn them on and off. The outside of the windows had not been cleaned in a long time. Once wiped though you could actually see the ocean more clearly. The screens on some of the windows certainly hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. The instructions on using the TV were bad. We finally used our own screen-sharing to watch the movie we wanted. Wi-fi in general was good though.
