About this property

Delightful Oceanside Home Steps to Tranquil Beach: Soak up the Sun and Seabreeze

Nestled just steps from the soft, golden sands of the meandering Outer Banks beaches, this charming beach cottage offers the perfect coastal retreat. With four inviting bedrooms and two full baths, it comfortably accommodates families seeking a relaxing getaway. The fully-stocked kitchen is ideal for preparing home-cooked meals, while the open dining/living room provides a great space for family gatherings. Unwind on the deck after a day of sunbathing, fishing or exploring, and enjoy the salty, ocean breeze while watching the sun sink down slowly over the Sound. The deck is also perfect for watching the beach come to life in the morning with the soft pinks and oranges of the sunrise over the ocean.

The cottage is located on a lovely, quiet street that dead-ends at the beach. It's located in South Nags Head, just past Milepost 20. Our location is the best of both worlds with restaurants, shops, grocery stores, golf courses, state parks, fishing piers and other local attractions only a 10-15 minute drive from the house, while having the peaceful coastal sanctuary for shorebirds, sea turtles, dolphins and more, just steps from the front door. You'll love the serenity of slow-paced beach living!

Don't forget about the magical atmosphere of the Outer Banks at night! You will be mesmerized by the dazzling canopy of stars overhead, unimpeded by city lights. For some added fun, take a flashlight down to the beach at night to watch the ghost crabs scuttle across the sand as they search for food under the cover of night.

*There is typically a lifeguard stand on the beach at the end of our street during summer months.

Nice house very close to the beach south of nags head. We loved taking our coffee to the beach each morning. The house was clean, well taken care of and had most of what we needed. Don’t forget to bring your own towels! Shops and restaurants are 5 minutes away by car. Propert manager was very responsive and provided a lot of information about things to do, places to eat, etc.

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home! Our host was very speedy in responses…just a couple of questions on our end, no issues. The property has been well-maintained, was very clean, kitchen was well stocked, and the deck furniture gave us a comfortable place to hang out outside as well. Super easy beach access. We’ve stayed in a lot of homes on the Outer Banks down through the years, but this was definitely one of our favorites! We’ll be back!!!

Nags Head perfection

This property was a great spot to spend the week. The lifeguarded beach was awesome with the kids, yet the crowds were just right. The house was well stocked and communication between the owners was great. Their pre-trip info and check-in was detailed and helped us to better be prepared for our trip. We enjoyed evenings on the deck once the sun went down and the quick walk to and from the beach. A beach walk after a rain day led to one of the most epic rainbows!

Great place to stay for families. We even had a 2yo. Location can’t be beat, the house is warm and inviting. Has a cute bay window the kids loved. The deck made for amazing dinners outside and was great for stargazing at night. All the beach decorations were beautiful. They have tons of beach chairs, some beach toys and outdoor wash. Leslie and Greg were incredible hosts. Very responsive, caring and informative. Can’t wait to come back!

Perfect Friends Week

We had the absolute best time at the beach. The house was perfectly located and made it so easy to get to the beach. The house had everything we could possibly want, even a large living space that the kids had the best time spreading out on the floor to play. Prior to our arrival, Leslie was in communication with us and made the whole process so easy to check in and prepare us for our stay. You can’t go wrong staying here! We can’t wait to come back. Thanks again for a perfect week!

We truly enjoyed our stay in Nags Head! This was our first time at this beach area. Having the home so close to the beach with a life guard was fantastic, since we had 3 littlle ones with us(ages 2, 4, 5). We will be back!

Anniversary Getaway

My husband and I booked five nights at this beautiful oceanside cottage, and we were absolutely delighted with our accommodations. The cottage was lovely, well equipped, and in a very desirable location. We had great communications with our hosts who made us feel right at home with the cottage amenities and the detailed information given about the Outer Banks area. We look forward to booking another stay at this lovely home!

Wonderful Beach House!

Our group of friends have been enjoying a girls’ getaway at the beach for 29 years and this home is by far our favorite. The house was clean, well stocked, and decorated beautifully. Leslie was a delight to work with and was very quick to respond to any of our questions. I’d highly recommend this home for your next Nags Head vacation!!!

We were absolutely in love with the house and its location. The description listed is spot on. We will definitely look into getting this house again if we can pull the family together for another trip to NC. Sitting on the deck at night, listening to the waves was one of my favorite things. It was all around a great experience.

Lovely Stay in Nags Head

The house was the perfect size for our family of 4 and 2 other family members. The house is so close to the beach and located in a safe neighborhood. We appreciated the extra amenities such as kitchen towels, well stocked kitchen and appliances, and beach equipment. House was very clean and beds were comfortable. Also, my children loved all of the board games in the house.

Beautiful, relaxing getaway

Booked this last minute for a much needed little break, and we could not have been happier. The booking process was very simple. The email Leslie sent with neighborhood and restaurant info was great. Check in process went smooth. The house was so spacious and comfortable...wish I had that mattress at home. The nautical decor was so nice. Less than a minute walk to the beach access at the end of the block. Adorable welcome treat. We are trying to arrange to go back to Nags Head soon and would love to stay at this property again.In property and neighbo

About the host

Hosted by Greg and Leslie Harshfield

Host profile image
We are a family of 6 from the Midwest. Our kids have grown up spending hours on the beach, building sand castles, playing in the waves, burying each other in the sand, and finding treasures that the tide brings in. They now range in age from 13-30 so their beach fun has changed to sunbathing, kayaking, fishing, and visiting their favorite restaurants and ice cream shops. One of our absolute favorite things is taking a day trip to Corolla to see the iconic Outer Banks wild horses. The tours are loads of fun and we see something new every time. There is definitely something to do for all ages! Greg takes advantage of the amazing photo opportunities, whether it's pictures of the majestic water birds, catching the last rays of the day illuminating the Bodie Island lighthouse, the sea turtles nesting, or just family fun on the beach. Leslie loves to walk up and down the beach, picking up shells that the tide brings in and popping into some of her favorite local shops, especially in the quaint little town of Manteo. We also love the fresh seafood at the local restaurants, and highly recommend O'Neals Sea Harvest in Wanchese if you want to prepare your own! And we have to mention how amazing our North Carolina Aquarium is, and it isn't far from our place. Check out the sea turtle rescue wing!

Why they chose this property

We rented this house for our family vacation years ago and fell in love with it. It just felt like home. When we called to book the same week for the next summer, the owners told us that they were selling. We decided that we couldn't pass up the opportunity. Owning this beach house has been a dream come true. We know that you will treasure the warm memories that your family makes here, just like we do!

What makes this property unique

This house is in a PERFECT location. It is on a quiet street in South Nags Head, just steps from the beach. There is a lifeguard tower on the beach at the end of our street from Memorial Day through Labor Day, which is a rare amenity. There are plenty of restaurants, golf courses, shops, grocery stores, banks, parks, piers, and other attractions in Nags Head. Our home is located just past all of those things, so you only have to drive a few minutes to anything you want to go to. You could also ride your bike along the bike path to get to many of those attractions. At night you can see millions of stars in the sky!
