Private vacation home

Historic and modern is what Pookie's Cottage is all about. This historic home was constructed in 1914 on the oceanfront in Nags Head and was relocated oceanside. Imagine the stories you could hear if the original pine floors, beams and shake siding could talk. Grab your sweet tea or mint julep and relax on the covered porches, taking in the salty breeze and ocean sounds. An enclosed yard will be just the place for your furry friends to run and play so bring them on vacation too!

The charming Nags Head beaches are within walking distance where you can bask in the sun, gather some shells or sea glass, swim or surf and after your adventurous beach day relax in your own private hot tub.

Pookie's Cottage also offers access to the local YMCA that is less than a mile away. You will have access to a seasonal outdoor pool, indoor pool, hot tub, sauna, locker rooms, exercise center and much more!

No Smoking/Vaping. Pet Friendly.

Tips and Tricks for getting the best vacation home experience:

Find your perfect rental:

Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
Summer months are high season in Nags Head. To find the best value, change your trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer excellent weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Nags Head vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Nags Head area visitors guides which often include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Nags Head visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

First and foremost, have your group decide on the best dates and a budget.
Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Pookie's Cottage: Historic, Oceanside, YMCA Access has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking pages. If not, reach out to the host before you book your home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what is right for your group.
Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.
Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

Considerations for your stay:

Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are out, just like you would back home.
To ensure that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, record any problem areas when you arrive. Contact the host immediately to report any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
Respect the neighborhood. Often, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
Leave feedback! Property owners rely on good ratings to propel more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
