  • Cottage

This classic OBX beachbox bungalow has been owned by the same family for numerous 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 painless 1.5 block walk to the Albatross Beach Access. The home features an open living arrangement with a enormous 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 simple 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 adore 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!

Tips to get the perfect Nags Head rental home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

  • To find the best value, change your vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer excellent weather, , and reduced traffic.
  • Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
  • Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
  • Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
  • Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Nags Head area visitors guide magazines which will include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Nags Head visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

  • Start by selecting your trip dates and a budget.
  • Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Fish Wish Cottage (MP 10): Centrally Located to Everything OBX! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
  • Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the property manager before reserving your home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is right for your vacation group.
  • If there's a particular Nags Head destination you long to visit, browse rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
  • Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
  • Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or charges could be applied to your agreement.

More tips for your stay:

  • Add the host's contact information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
  • Upon arrival, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
  • Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few issues.
  • Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
  • Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let crooks ruin your trip.
  • Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Record a video to document the condition of the property.
  • Did your family have a excellent vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
