Previous Listing Name: Cottage By The Sea South Nags Head, NC

Cottage By The Sea was previously owned and managed by the handsome Mrs. Jackie D. If you know...you know. We are proud to have met and learned all of Mrs. Jackie's in's and out's and we would be honored for her guests to continue to stay with us!

Cottage by the Sea is an 800 square foot semi-ocean front beach bungalow, with amazing ocean vistas.
It is located in South Nags Head, in a peaceful, family-aligned bungalow court. No businesses are allowed on the South Old Oregon Inlet Road, except the pier. The enchanting sound of waves breaking on the beach is the background noise. A screened porch and sun-deck is on the oceanside for appreciating the sea and sun.

Cottage By The Sea sits on the dune-line at the seashore. Inside are juniper walls, central heat and air, and wireless internet. There are three bedrooms; the Captain's Room has a queen bed and half-bath; the 'Shell' bedroom has a queen bed and kid's bed; and the "Lighthouse" room has one queen bed. In the hallway is a full bath with a shower/tub along with a high efficiency washer and dryer. The living room has comfortable seating, cable tv with sports channels. The kitchen is well-equipped with dishes, cookware, and appliances. Underneath the bungalow is room for parking and an outdoor shower with hot and cold running water. The bungalow is elevated on the dune-line, with 10 steps up. Near the steps is a park-style BBQ grille.

In the neighborhood court grounds, you are seconds from the sandy ocean-front beach. Within the court is also a kids's playground, and swimming pool, which guests are welcome to use in season. A paved bicycle path leads from the bungalow court to Jeanette's Pier.

There is a community pool that is only accessed by owners and there guests within the court. No lifeguard on duty. Supervision is recommended. Swim at your own risk. Open from Memorial Day to Labor Day!

No event groups please; this is a family-aligned setting.

The property has stairs, which requires you to use, in order to access the bungalow. Please note, there is sand underneath the home as well as sand on walking paths, streets, deck and patio.

The bungalow has fresh linens and towels. I highly recommend you bring your own additional towels, blankets, towels, toilet paper, paper towels, cooking supplies, etc if you are particular. We have "starters" we do not supply everything.

Strategies to get the best Nags Head rental experience:

Get the best rental value:

Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
Summertime is high season in Nags Head. Book your Nags Head rental in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
Some property management companies offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
Find a copy of your local Nags Head area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines contain coupons for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

How to choose the best vacation rental:

Start by having your group choose date ranges and a max budget.
Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Quaint Beach Cottage w\/ Beautiful Ocean Views, >50 Feet from Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before booking the home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to work out which bed configuration is right for your vacation.
If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.
Visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Tips for a great stay:

Get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of problems.
Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect your property!
During arrival, note any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've never otherwise known about!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Inspect the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
Leave a review! Property owners rely on great feedback to drive new bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
