A true home away from home.
Please read our reviews and you will see many who really appreciate our little piece of heaven by the sea.

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!!
You can find us East side between the highways in Nags Head at MP 10.5.
This has us centrally located, close to the beach, eateries, stores, the YMCA, the new Dowdy Park, and a mile from the Nags Head Fishing Pier.
We are two short blocks away from the beach. It's a 3 min. walk with direct beach access at either end of the street.
We are a block from the grocery store as well, it doesn't get much better!

Summer season weeks run Saturday to Saturday. Sheets and towels are included complimentary of charge. You will find clean sheets along with 6 bath towel packages in the bedrooms.

We are always updating and upgrading. We have modern amenities but still retain the homey "bungalow by the sea" feel.

The kitchen is well equipped. It has plenty of dishes, glassware, pots and pans, and modest appliances. Dishwashing liquid, dishwashing pods, hand soap, trash bags, & coffee filters are outfitted for you. The breakfast nook seats 6, and is the ideal place for comfortable family meals, game playing and appreciating time together.

The main living area is attractively decorated, with new furnishings, and bespoke touches and artwork throughout. We have a new 55" intelligent TV. Those with a Netflix account can log in to watch your favorite shows.

Bedroom 1, first floor, Queen bed, TV and nice size closet. It connects to the first floor bathroom.
Bedroom 2, second floor, (bunk room) 2 singles, great for the kids, they appreciate the bunk beds, and will savor the TV and DVD player. The bunk room connects to a Jack and Jill bath.
Bedroom 3, second floor, Queen bed, has a TV & DVD player and a sizable closet. There's also a sitting nook attached, ideal for curling up with a good book. This bedroom also connects to the Jack and Jill bath.
The loft area is added space for the kids to enjoy board games, or if you need a peaceful space to simply chill out, or work (if you must). We have complimentary wifi.

We have a mud room on the ground floor, with a full-sized washer and dryer. Also in the mud room, you'll find a closet with beach equipment for our guests. We have beach chairs, an umbrella, a cooler, body boards, corn hole, some sand toys and other fun games. Lastly there's a new wagon to haul it all to the beach.

Outside, you'll find two decks, one is covered and shady for calming after a day in the sun, or if you are a sun worshiper, the upper deck is complete with table and chairs for al fresco dining. Our back yard is cavernous, flat, and fenced in for security and added privacy. It's ideal for cornhole, playing horseshoes, bocce ball or whatever outdoor games your family enjoys.

Lastly we have a keyless entry, nice outdoor shower, a swing, a new gas grille, and picnic table.

****Please make sure you read and understand all aspects of our rental agreement and home rules. Specifically, our occupancy limit and penalties for noncompliance, hurricane policy, and the "no animals allowed" rule. We are true animal lovers, but sadly we have family members that are highly allergic. There are many pet friendly homes along the Outer Banks. We would be more than happy to recommend some to you so you can bring your furry family member along without any worries.
Thanks for understanding. Any questions? Feel complimentary to ask! We are happy to help.

After being guests ourselves for many years, we strive to make this home our, and your home away from home. We have put a lot of thought and care into making it a nice, clean, organized, safe environment for everybody. After all, it's about family and friends, spending time together with the ones you adore, and making memories that last a lifetime!!

Tips for getting the perfect Nags Head vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

  • June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Reserve your Nags Head vacation in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
  • The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are booked early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
  • Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
  • Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
  • Look for your local Nags Head area magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines have coupons for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Planning and picking the best Nags Head vacation home:

  • First, have your family decide on the best dates and a max budget.
  • Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Three Mermaids Cottage, Nags Head, 2 blocks to the beach, read our reviews! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Nags Head rental home search.
  • Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available online. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before you book your home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
  • Are you looking for specific amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
  • Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .
  • If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly rental. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts charge additional pet fees.

Additional considerations:

  • Put the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
  • Note any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if damages are attributed to your stay.
  • Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents a lot of problems.
  • Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great source for finding the best local attractions.
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
  • Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your holiday.
  • When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Record a video to document the condition of the property.
  • Leave a review! Property managers rely on great ratings to drive new reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
