Seahorse Cottage is a semi-oceanfront, classic beach bungalow located in South Nags Head less than 30 yards over the dune line. Appreciate a 2-min. walk to the beach on a private access road THIS LISTING IS FOR THE DOWNSTAIRS GROUND FLOORING UNIT ONLY. 1 Bedroom and 1 bath with shower. This is a BASIC, older apartment - nothing fancy - on the ground floor (below sea level). It has baseboard heat and a window unit air conditioning and a basic kitchen - probably not suitable for cooking broad meals but great for basic needs. A good place to relax after a day at the beach, fishing, or other outdoor activities. It is listed with a max occupancy of 2 people, but families with up to 2 kids can be accommodated on a case by case basis if providing own linens. A separate detached three-bedroom unit upstairs is available on its own or with the downstairs as one home.

Please read the entire listing before booking!

The space
THIS LISTING IS FOR THE DOWNSTAIRS APARTMENT ONLY. Smell and hear the ocean just over the dune. This is a classic Old Nags Head beach bungalow with two separate units - upstairs three bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and downstairs one bedroom, one bath - both with full but older kitchens - and living areas. THIS IS DOWNSTAIRS ONLY. Please note that parking is very limited. The downstairs unit has only 1 dedicated parking space if the upstairs is occupied.

Guest access
This listing is downstairs ONLY. Outdoor common areas (hose and outdoor shower) and laundry room may be shared with other guests if the upstairs is occupied.

This unit only has parking for 1 car or regular size SUV or truck. No on-street parking.

Other things to note
2 adults max.. Please message us beforehand if you are a family bringing kids (2 max.). No additional linens will be supplied, but there is space for you to bring your own air bed(es).

You may have to clean the grille if the last guests did not clean it as is courtesy. Our cleaners do NOT clean the grilles. Charcoal is NOT an luxury we provide, but many guests leave some behind as a "pay it forward" gesture, so you may find some but you are responsible for your charcoal needs.

The unit has baseboard heat and an older window style a/c setup. - nothing fancy! It also has a dehumidifier that you may have to empty if full. We thank you in advance for your assistance with this.

Please note that the wood paneling and the age and proximity to the ocean can have a unique "bungalow" smell. We do run a dehumidifier which you may have to empty during your stay. We assume you read this note before booking. Thank you!

PLEASE BE COURTEOUS OF NOISE AND PARKING WHILE OTHER GUESTS ARE IN RESIDENCE. We do have a camera on the home that is motion activated and has a spotlight to monitor parking. The only area that can be seen with the camera is the parking area.

Our top Nags Head rental property booking tips:

Finding the best rental value:

Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
Summertime is the most expensive season in the Nags Head area. To get the most suitable rental home within budget, we strongly suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Nags Head vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
Look for your local Nags Head area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guides have deals for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Make a plan and pick the bestvacation home:

Choose your vacation week and max budget.
Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Semi-Oceanfront Ground Level Apt???? Basic, Beachside Living?Private Access Road has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Nags Head rental home search.
Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is normally accessible on booking pages. If not, email or call the property manager before you book the rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
Traveling with pets? 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 agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or costs applied to your contract.
Visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental

Tips for your stay:

Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of difficulties.
Lock your rental while you are out. Protect your property!
To make certain damages aren't linked to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. text the host immediately to report any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers disrupting your peaceful home life. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known about!
Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
At departure, take a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and look for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on great reviews to drive future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
