Waterfront retreat of privacy and tranquility on the Currituck Sound - Grandy NC

Step into an oasis of privacy and tranquility at The Currituck Cottage, a private 3-bedroom, 2-bath waterfront retreat along the peaceful shores of the Currituck Sound in Grandy, NC. With sweeping 180-degree water views, unforgettable sunrises/sunsets, and abundant Outer Banks wildlife, this is the perfect getaway for nature lovers, couples, families, photographers, artists, birdwatchers, anglers, hunters, and anyone seeking peace, privacy, and a slower pace. At The Currituck Cottage, panoramic views of the Currituck Sound are always front and center.

The expansive sunroom with large dining table overlooks the sound and wetlands. A private office space provides a quiet retreat and includes a twin bed for additional sleeping accommodations.



Outside, the covered waterfront deck invites you to slow down and unwind. Cook on the outdoor stainless steel grill, enjoy dinner overlooking the sound, sway in the hammock with a book, or simply listen to the frogs and evening breeze roll across the water.

We had a great time. Pictures of the property were exactly as listed. Very clean! Right on the Currituck sound and close to all the beaches in OBX. Only small complaint was the neighbor dog pooping in the yard every morning and barking at the door.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted that you enjoyed your stay and that the cottage, waterfront location, and cleanliness met your expectations. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we're so glad you were able to experience the beauty of the Currituck Sound and the nearby Outer Banks beaches. We also appreciate your comment about the neighbor’s dog. We understand that unexpected visits like this to the yard aren't ideal, and we're already looking at ways to minimize this for future guests. Thank you again for staying with us. We hope to welcome you back to The Currituck Cottage on your next visit to the Outer Banks!

The property is a lovely, quiet destination where you can relax and enjoy beautiful scenery. This is a a nature-lover’s delight as you can marvel at waterfront sunrise/sunsets, bird watch, fish, and cruise around on your kayaks (and that’s just at the property — Kitty Hawk beach is an easy 30 ride away). The renovations throughout and ample room sizes makes this an excellent choice for families. My husband and I plan to buy a set of those Turkish Cotton towels! They were an added bonus after a nice shower!! Highly recommended!! We would visit again.

About the host

Hosted by Currituck Cottage Hosting Team

Host profile image
I’ve lived in NC & VA much of my life and I raised my family in a large NC city, but we love the slower pace of Grandy and OBX. We spend our mornings and evenings on the deck or in the sunroom watching the sky change colors with the sunrise and the moon rise, and we watch the osprey who return in mid-March and raise their families. We see lots of different waterfowl, such as duck, geese, heron, swans, as well as otters, turtles, fish and the occasional deer. At The Currituck Cottage, we enjoy sharing that peace and tranquility with others.

Why they chose this property

My grandparents built this home when I was a young kid and the area was first developed. This land is a former potato field and my uncle says we would dig up potatoes for years after the house was built. It’s quiet and surrounded by wildlife, but it’s also close to the VA line and only 14 miles from the Wright Memorial Bridge. We can visit and play in Va Beach or OBX and still have the peace and quiet of home. Nearby we enjoy visiting Sanctuary Vineyards, Buffalo City, H2OBX Waterslides, Kitty Hawk Kites (which operates hang gliding a few miles away), Currituck BBQ, Wiseguys Pies and more.

What makes this property unique

The Currituck Cottage has an incomparable view of big water. From the moment you walk in the front door, you escape the rush of daily life and can enjoy an oasis of peace and tranquility with all the comforts of home.
