Summary:
Vacation in simpler times with your pups.

The sound of the screen door closing behind you, the smell of the sea in the air and the vintage feel of old school Nags Head - if you've ever said, "remember when," then this 1950's bungalow is for you! Renovated yet nostalgic and full of classic Nags Head appeal, this is the well-appointed beach bungalow you’ve been looking for.

A dog-friendly bungalow with a studio layout, Kemp & Olive features a well-equipped kitchen, a flat screen TV, WiFi, cable, a shared washer & dryer, and a mini-split heating & air conditioning system for optimal temperature control. The outdoor area offers an outdoor shower, charcoal grille, an outdoor hose, and a backyard firepit – B.Y.O firewood and smores!! For your convenience, the bungalow has a cart for hauling your beach gear to and from the sand.

Linens and cleaning are supplied in the rate. Linens are supplied by an independent vendor (bed linens, bath towels, washcloths, sheets). Bed will be made when you arrive!

Our phenomenal caretakers, Mike and Lisa, live close by and are as committed to your experience as we are.

Located on the beach road, the property is just a short walk away from a impressive beach access over a natural dune on Grouse Street (see aerial photos above). One of two cottages onsite, Kemp and Olive is one of just a handful of bungalow courts still in existence in Nags Head.

In addition to many local retail stores, fine and casual dining establishments and grocery stores, the bungalow is also close to many great local attractions including the elegantly modernized Jennette's Pier (less than one mile away), the North Carolina Aquarium in Manteo, Jockey's Ridge, Tanger Outlet shopping, Bodie Island Lighthouse, Coquina Beach, and off-roading and fishing at Oregon Inlet.

There is a two-dog max., we do not allow cats, and we do not charge a pet fee. There is no smoking allowed in the bungalow.

Thank you for considering Kemp & Olive Cottage!

Our top Nags Head vacation rental tips:

Finding the best value:

Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To get the best value, consider shifting your trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
Find a copy of your local Nags Head visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines have discounts for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Filter your search:

First, have your group agree to trip dates and a spending budget.
Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Last Minute Sale!! Kemp & Olive Cottage: Tiny Cottage for Two Guests and Pups! has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before you book the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
If there's a specific Nags Head destination you crave, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Advice for a smooth stay:

Get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
Lock your rental property while you're away! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
Document any issues with the property at check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if a dispute is filed.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers bothering your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Inspect the property one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
Did your family have a terrific stay? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
