Cottage

This classic OBX beachbox bungalow has been owned by the same family for multiple decades -- and cherished by our friends and other families who have selected this handsome NC coastal community as their vacation destination for years!

Centrally located at Milepost (MP) 10, and the ideal location of "Between the Highways" (158 & 12) , this well appointed and handsomely landscaped bungalow shares a modest, peaceful family-friendly street with a close-knit community of OBX regulars that is an simple 1.5 block walk to the Albatross Beach Access. The home features an open living arrangement with a sizable kitchen, dining, and family combo room adjacent to nice-sized covered front porch that includes constructed-in bench seating and two Adirondack rockers. Below the main floor of the bungalow is additional space for calming in the sectional couch and Nags Head handcrafted hammock. Imagine grabbing a cold drink from the little refrigerator and chilling out with your Buds at one of the constructed-in bar tables. Coming straight from the beach? No problem. Just hop in the outdoor shower that features two options: one on the sunny-outside and one on the covered-carport-side. A washer/dryer is available for your laundry needs. Beyond the carport is an extended backyard with plenty of room for you and your friends to play corn hole and other beach games with nice sun protection from a few mature trees. A constructed-in charcoal grille makes outdoor cooking painless and fun!

The historic gift shop, Ben Franklin, and the OBX favorite, Brew Thru, are a short walk away. Two major grocery stores -- Harris Teeter and Food Lion -- are close by. The bungalow is across the Hwy-158 from OBX ABC Store -- and within walking and cycling distance from local eatery favorites like Front Porch Cafe, Kill Devil Grille, Country Deli, The Spot Ice Cream and freshly opened Noosa Beach Grille, Swells'a Brewing Beer Company, and Mahi Mahi Island Grille. About one mile away, Dowdy Park offers five acres of recreation for every age and ability -- and, Wright Brother's National Memorial, Jockey's Ridge State Park, and Nags Head Woods Preserve are just three more of the many OBX outdoor activities to discover. Vacation passes are available for purchase at the YMCA-OBX should you wish to take in exercise and pool amenities while visiting.

Here to go fishing? Ideal. T.W.'s Bait & Tackle is located right across Hwy-158. Have a shopping itch? Excellent. T.J. Maxx is also right across Hwy-158 -- and the OBX Outlet Mall is 6 miles away. Surfing? Cool. Whalebone Surf Shop has it all right across Hwy-158. Rainy day? No worries. OBX Bowling Center is next to T.J. Maxx, Kill Devil Hills Multiplex is less than 4 miles down Hwy-158, and the bungalow has two Intelligent TVs. Need to do a bit of business? We have Staples across Hwy-158, next to T.J. Maxx, and the locally-owned OBX Shipping Center is a short drive away. Have a bigger family to accommodate? There are a number of similar beachbox cottages on Atlas Street that welcome families just like yours -- and, Marriott's TownPlace Suites is a few blocks away.

The towns of Manteo and Ocracoke (to the South) -- and, Duck and Corolla (to the North) are all great day trips and provide further enjoyment for the entire family -- but, to be honest, most folks who visit just like grabbing their choice of cold beverages, doing a bit of beach combing and body boarding, a lot of porch chatting and rocking, and creating lifelong memories with their friends and families. We find that every season on the OBX brings it own unique beauty -- and, we look forward to hosting you soon. We know you and your family will appreciate the OBX as much as we do!

* While we appreciate our four-legged friends, we are unable to host them at our bungalow. We savor you understanding. There are many OBX units that open their homes to your family pets. If this is a requirement for your travels, we ask that you book with a rental property that can best accommodate your furry adored one(s). Thank you!

** NOTE: Atlas Street neighbors actively participate in the Community Watch program as established by the Town of Nags Head Police Division. While we want all our guests to have fun in the OBX, we also want to ensure their safety and well-being. The Community Watch assists local law enforcement with monitoring and reporting disruptive and illegal activities. We greatly appreciate our guests adherence to all OBX ordinances -- and to helping us keep our community safe, our beaches clean, and Fish Wish the happiest beachbox bungalow to vacation while visiting the Outer Banks!

Nags Head rental home tips and tricks:

Money saving strategies:

Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
Reserve your Nags Head vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Nags Head vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
Find a copy of your local Nags Head visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides have coupons for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Planning and picking the perfectrental home:

To start, have your family agree to trip dates and a budget.
Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Fish Wish Cottage (MP 10): Centrally Located to Everything OBX! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is regularly available on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property manager before reserving your home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or applied to your agreement.
Are you visiting for a specific event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More tips for your visit:

Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent many concerns.
Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would at home.
Document any issues with the property at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute is filed.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your quiet neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
On check-out day, take a walk-through to confirm you have not leave anything behind. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out 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 great vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
