Wonderful Home!

We enjoyed our stay at Woody’s Cottage! 20 minutes to Coquina Beach, a very short walk to downtown Manteo, and a short drive to Kill Devil Hills and Nags Head. The home has a lot of space for a large family and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need to prepare a great meal. The fenced-in front and backyard were perfect for our dog.

Fantastic family home in Manteo

My family (7 of us, ages 11-80) stayed 4 nights. The location can't be beat, we walked every morning to a coffee shop one block over and walked to shopping, ice cream and Festival Park. The house was equipped with everything we needed and the owners were kind and responsive when we had a minor laundry emergency. The feel of the place is absolutely like you are staying in well loved, well kept family vacation home and it was perfect for us. Would totally stay here again.
