Cottage

Welcome to Any Excuse – our family beach bungalow located in South Nag’s Head, NC (milepost 17.5). We named our bungalow “Any Excuse” because, rather honestly, we will use any excuse to spend time in the Outer Banks! Our bungalow is furnished with tons of personal touches and modern amenities to make you feel right at home. Public beach access is just a short walk from the bungalow (1/2 block).

Any Excuse is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom bungalow. The downstairs bedroom is furnished with a queen bed and has a screened in back porch. Upstairs, there is a huge bedroom with a king bed as well as a smaller room with a queen bed. Linens are supplied. Both upstairs rooms have private decks. Several air beds including a toddler size one are also available for use. There are two full baths, one downstairs and one upstairs with tub/shower combination in both.

We are equipped with complimentary high-speed WIFI, 3 intelligent TV’s, and 2 blue ray players. The kitchen is equipped with stove/oven, dishwasher, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, Keurig and a traditional coffeemaker. Dishes, cutlery, glassware, pots, pans, etc. are also supplied. The dining area accommodates 6 and additional seating for 2 is available at the kitchen bar. Washer and dryer are located on the main floor. Our comfortable den area includes a full size couch, upsized chair with ottoman, recliner and single swivel rocker. There is a enormous deck off the dining/den with 2 porch swings, and 2 chairs. This deck faces the ocean and is great for calming at any time of the day.

There is a nice storage space on the ground level where you will find beach chairs, beach toys, outdoor games, bicycles, and body boards. A propane grille is available for your use. There is an outdoor shower with hot/cold water for painless and fun clean up after a day at the beach. Our additional-sizable driveway accepts for room to savor the hammock or create an outside entertainment area.

This is a smoke-complimentary bungalow.

Tricks and tips to get the best Nags Head rental experience:

Get the best rental home value:

To book the best rental home within budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Nags Head attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Nags Head vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
Booking websites often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
Often, property management companies supply Nags Head area travel guides which often include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Nags Head area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

Choose a designated group leader, choose your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. \"Any Excuse\" - great cottage, great views, great beach access, great get away has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before booking the vacation home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what configuration is optimal for your vacation.
Are you looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.
Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a property that allows animals. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
During arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peaceful home life. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently 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 BBQ?
Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition.
Did you have a terrific stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
