Classic Oceanfront Nags Head Cottage
If you've been looking for an “Old Nags Head” style oceanfront rental that is both economical and family-friendly, Sea Monster is the ideal rental for you! Located on a huge oceanfront lot on Nags Head's re-nourished beach just north of MP 11, this comfortable bungalow expertly blends modern coastal finishes with characteristics reminiscent of a vintage beach home. Visitors will appreciate the updates that have been made while appreciating the appeal of the tongue-and-groove cypress walls and beamed cathedral ceilings. A private walkway off the deck connects the home to the pristine Nags Head coastline.
Enter on the ground level where you'll find a double-car garage converted into the ideal rainy-day game room complete with Ping Pong Table, Foosball Table, a full-sized refrigerator, and a Giant-Screen Intelligent TV. There are two bedrooms on this level, one with a Full Bed and one with a Bunk Bed, that have access to an refreshed Full Bath with Tub/Shower combo in the hall.
Upstairs, an inviting great room features a living area with cozy furnishings located around a TV with DVD Player, an 8-person dining table, a entirely-outfitted galley kitchen, and a convenient breakfast area. A Master Queen Bedroom on the top level enjoys handsome ocean vistas and has an attached Full Bathroom and Laundry area. A sizable second bedroom on this floor contains 2 Double/Full Beds and a Couch for additional space. A new sliding glass door opens onto a enormous Oceanfront Deck with a raised walkway to the beach and a private dune top deck. The deck also wraps around to the south side and west sides of the home making it the ideal place for you to watch the sunsets while your four-legged companions savor people-watching along the walking path.
Surrounded by Local Attractions
Sea Monster is less than 2 miles from the historic district of Nags Head and within painless walking distance to great shopping centers, seafood eateries like Tortugas Lie, and recreational sites like the Nags Head Town Park, Dowdy Park, Pier, the YMCA, and Jockey's Ridge State Park. Start your day with a walk to Morning View Coffee House to fulfill your caffeine craving and end it with a walk to Surfin Spoon or The Spot for an ice cream cone or your other favorite sweet treat. The home is also just a short drive away from numerous grocery stores, the outlet mall, and local attractions like the Wright Brothers Memorial, Nags Head Golf Links Golf Course, and Pirate's Cove Marina. With a great location and plenty of historic charm, Sea Monster is a home you will want to return to year after year!

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect vacation home experience:
How to get the best rental home value:
- Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
- Summer months are the most expensive season in the Nags Head area. To find the best value, shift your family's Nags Head vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Nags Head vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
- Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
- Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
- Look for your local Nags Head area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides contain offers and deals for local accommodations, tours and attractions.
Planning, selecting, and booking the perfectvacation home:
- Choose your vacation dates and max budget.
- Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. 6024 Sea Monster * Oceanfront * Dog Friendly has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
- Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property manager before you reserve the home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to determine which bed configuration is best for your vacation group.
- Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or charges may be applied to your invoice.
- Are you visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
- Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.
Tips for your stay:
- Be sure you get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
- Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
- Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
- To make certain that damages are not linked to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas during arrival. Get in touch with the property manager immediately to document any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
- Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
- Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
- On check-out day, take a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
- Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
- Did you have a terrific time? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
