Dolphin Lookout - The Obvious Choice for an Oceanfront Cottage
Classic Oceanfront Cottage in South Nags Head | Direct Beach Access | Community Pool
Dreaming of a quintessential OBX beach getaway? Dolphin Lookout is the perfect choice! This 3-bedroom, 2-bath oceanfront cottage in South Nags Head offers direct beach access, a sun deck for morning coffee with ocean views, and a community pool for when you need a break from the waves. With retro coastal charm and thoughtful amenities, this home makes relaxing by the shore easy and unforgettable.
Just Steps to the Beach
Spend your days splashing in the Atlantic and lounging on the sand, then return to your private oceanfront deck to soak in the breeze. Prefer fresh water? Head to the Geri's Place community pool or let the kids burn off energy at the playground.
Comfortable Living, Coastal Charm
Inside, you'll be greeted by the warmth of a classic beach cottage, complete with wood-paneled walls and coastal décor. The open-concept living area features plenty of seating and a large flat-screen TV for family movie nights. The fully equipped kitchen includes everything you need—plus a dishwasher for easy cleanup—while the dining area offers seating for six. Share meals, swap stories, and enjoy time together in true Outer Banks fashion.

So Much to See in Beautiful South Nags Head
The location of this cottage in South Nags Head makes it easy to relax in the peaceful and natural surroundings, grab some food from Nags Head's renowned restaurants, or pick up a souvenir from a local retailer! There are also several historic sites nearby that the whole family will enjoy including Jennette's Pier (where you can walk 1,000-feet out over the Atlantic Ocean and try to reel in the big one), the Bodie Island Lighthouse (where you can climb to the top for a 360-degree view of the surrounding flora and fauna), and Jockey's Ridge (where you can hike the tallest living sand dune on the East Coast!) Take the Herbert C. Bonner Bridge over Oregon Inlet and spend the day exploring Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge on nearby Hatteras Island. Unparalleled views of the Atlantic Ocean, direct access to the beach, and close proximity to dozens of Outer Banks attractions, landmarks, restaurants, and amenities—what more could you ask for?
