Along a two-mile stretch in Nags Head sits a row of homes that will take you back to days gone by and the Fred Wood Cottage c.1930. These gorgeous oceanfront, old Nags Head style cottages are a testament to the pioneers who constructed these and brought their families across the sound to vacation here in the summer. The wide expansive porches are a distinctive feature of these homes, encircling four sides of the home with sloping roofs and providing a place for families to gather out of the sun. Many hours were spent on the porches watching the ocean and talking with family, friends, and neighbors. The Fred Wood Cottage is known to have the best front porch on the east coast! Inside you'll feel the history continue with the wood-paneled walls and wooden floors and striking decor. This historic home is sure to be a family favorite year after year. Fred Wood Cottage was constructed to withstand the elements and keep families comfortable during the summer. Take the sandy path to the beach and appreciate a day basking in the sun, surfing, swimming, and searching for seashells and sea glass. Bring your family and friends to this delightful home and add to the new memories being made in this historic home.

How to get the best Nags Head vacation property experience:

Getting the best value:

Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserve your rental home in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
The sooner your group can book, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation property up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your family qualifies for a special rate.
Property managers often offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
Many rental management companies supply Nags Head area travel guides that include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

Choose dates and budget.
Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Fred Wood Cottage:Oceanfront, historic, Old Nags Head Style cottage, wide decks! has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is normally available online. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before booking your home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
Are you visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property managers charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your stay:

Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
To make sure damages are not attributed to your family's stay, record any problem areas upon check in. Make contact with the host right away to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
Respect the neighborhood. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
Lock your rental home while you're out and about. Keep your property safe!
Double-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
Did you have a terrific stay? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct 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 review.
