The Area
Nags Head sits near the gateway to the Pea Island Reserve and National Park Service coastline, so the beaches here feel more remote and unhurried. A short drive north brings you to Jockey's Ridge State Park, the tallest natural sand dune system on the East Coast, along with the Nags Head Woods Ecological Preserve and its miles of maritime forest trails. Anglers can cast from the beach or from Jeannette's Pier, while miniature golf, go-carting, an outlet mall, specialty shops, and restaurants ranging from take-out to fine dining are all within easy reach. Historic Roanoke Island, the North Carolina Aquarium, and the fishing village of Wanchese make for a memorable day trip during your stay in Nags Head.
Updates for 2025: Fresh interior paint; new bedding; new second floor furnishings and deck; new TVs throughout.
Pool: Pool heated by heat pump. Ambient air temperature of 60 degrees or higher is needed to heat the pool, meaning that if the temperature drops below 60 degrees the pump will not continue to heat. Max pool temperature is 80 degrees.
2027 Holiday Week Check-In: Our offices will be closed on December 25, 2027 for the Christmas Day holiday. If your 2027 lease check-in date is on Christmas Day please note that we will work to make special arrangements to alter your check-in date.
