This 2 bedroom and 1 bath is newly renovated. It has a classic beach box look with modern amenities and comfortable furnishings. This is the forth property we currently have in this program. We are super excited with this property due to the Nags Head location, the extra room in the front of the living room and the new walk in shower. The cottage is located at mile post 16 with 10 restaurants with in 2 miles, putt putt, go carts, water sports and a golf coarse close by also. There is a Tanger Outlet mall across the street with Banana Republic, Coach, Polo and a bunch more. The location in Nags Head makes it easy to go anywhere on the beach, north to Jockey's Ridge, largest sand dune on the east coast, or south to Hatteras to see the Cape Hatteras Light House. There are two beach access close enough you don' t need to drive. By close they are 50 yards on each side. The one to the north does have an out door shower and foot wash, but there is also a water hose on the north side of the house. The town of Manteo is 10 min away and worth a trip downtown with more shops, restaurants, and a brewery and distillery. A walk on the the waterfront dock is always relaxing.
A quick note about this property.
We also have a duplex Dad s Pad , # 1067106 and the other side Mom s home away from home, # 907506 is also in the Vrbo program and one in the heart of manteo #1135605.
We have had more fun checking guests in personally and telling them about our Outer Banks than you know and can't wait for future guests to come enjoy any one of our places. Mom made them super cute and beach themed. If you wanted to go on vacation with some other families but like your space also, we have the spot for you and our family restaurant , the Dunes is right behind you for breakfast, dinner, carry out and a full bar with no driving required. Our places are safe and secure with storage for beach gear.
In the event of a hurricane or threat of one and you need to cancel. Not a problem! We give a full refund. We do not wish to profit from a storm and we will hope you can rebook at a future date and pick us and Nags Head year after year.
There is WiFi and a TV with basic cable. The out front room is a cute place to take a nap under the ceiling fan on the plush couch, or finish up the book you started earlier on the beach. and a place mom and dad could catch up while the kids watch a movie.
If you were able to see the bathroom and how small it was you would know why this shower is a great addition to the cottage.

We had a wonderful stay at Patrick's cottage in Nags Head, it was perfect for my family of 3! Patrick communicated very well, and was a gracious host. We would love to stay again in the future.

3.0 / 5.0
The impression of the property was very sketchy at first. But, when we walked in... very beachy. The bathroom was a bit small, but we delt with it. The water pressure in the shower was like getting spinkled on. And the beds where extremely uncomfy. None of us slept well. If you require coffee. I suggest that you bring your own coffee pot. The walk to the beach was very short. Its right accross the street. I recomend bringing a wagon of sorts. The one thing that bothered me a bit... is there was people hanging out at the back of the property looking directly at our back door. So, everytime i went outside... i had soneone watching me/us. I do believe that the person next door did live there. And one of the days we were there, my husband went outside and the young ladies who were at the house next door hid their beers from our view??? Don't know y?? And we also witnessed a high speed chase involving someone pulling into the driveway that we shared. The gentleman got out of his car. Then pretended to talk on his cell phone as if he had been there a while. Not really sure if we will come back to this location. But, overall we did enjoy the beach alot. And all of the friendly people that we incountered along the way. I wish everyone in this world was as welcoming and as nice as the people in Nags Head.

This was exactly what I was looking for! My sister and I were looking for a quick get away for a couple of days and this old style flat roof cottage fit the bill perfectly. It was clean and cute and had all the amenities you could need for a beach get away. The property owners had great communication with me and the check in and check out process was easy. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

We had the best time at the flat top cottage, exactly as described, check in was easy and cottage had everything we needed for our weekend away! Beach access was close and convenient and we spent every minute we could flying kites and looking for shells! Close to everything, restaurants, mini golf, stores. For our family of 3, it was a perfect size! Loved the sun room at nights for board games and the beds were super firm and comfortable! Highly recommend and would 100% stay again! Very clean, everything was decorated nice, and it had everything we needed. Did lots of relaxing and found lots of shells! We didn't turn on the TV once during our stay, we were having so much fun spending time together. Thank you for letting us visit!

Nice older cottage, that was very clean! Location was great, right across the road from the beach and close to Jeanette’s pier. Several great places to eat within a very short walking distance which was good for use. You cannot see the beach but you can see the dunes when you walk around to the side of the house. For the price and the location I would definitely stay again!

The size of the house suited the three of us. Be prepared for a very musty smell. Floor was oddly and extremely slippery. Nicely decorated. Bed was comfortable, not the pillows. Good communication with host.

Location, size, character, everything about this rental was perfect for us. 2 nice size room. Great shared living spaces. Easy parking. Walk to the beach. Truly a great experience. I already miss our daily walks on the beach and my mom's snoring;)

We planned a trip at the last minute and felt lucky that we found a place to stay - but it turned out to be way more than just lucky. The house was perfect for our stay, we loved the layout and feel - and the AC was cold in every room!
We'll plan to be back when it is a bit cooler so we can enjoy the sweet front porch room!

Description was accurate. Nice cozy place. Short, easy access to beach. We enjoyed our mini vacation. Home away from home.

The house was nicer than the photos. Very clean. The host was responsive to our needs. Only down side was no washer and drier on site but there are laundry mats within a short drive. Otherwise they have most necessities you would need in a house. Very happy with our stay. Would stay there again.
5.0 / 5.0
Not only is this place adorable, conveniently located, and super affordable for two people, we even managed to have a blast in the rain for 4 days. Patrick was there in minutes when we needed him (the door keypad batteries died - could happen to anyone!), and suggested great beach and dining spots while we had him (and accurately so since we were already very familiar with the area!). Just across the street from beach access, a 15 minute drive from the nearest lighthouse and my favorite beach, Coquina, and just over the bridge from Manteo to see The Lost Colony. We will definitely stay here again!

I have visted the outer banks over 50 times in the last 40 years and have stayed in every imaginable rental from2 bedrooms to 20, from Corolla to Hatteras We rented this VRBO on the basis there were no steps. (I am waiting on second knee replacement.) This property is advertised and so much more. CLEAN, well furnished, nicely decorated and easily accessible. Our host Patrick is the greatest. He had the heat and TV on when we arrived and was very accommodating about extending our stay. Cant wait to go back and stay at the Flat Top. Nick S Claysville, PA

I'm not sure how this rental keeps getting good reviews!! My husband and I stayed here last week for our anniversary and we're less than impressed with the house.
On our second night, the biggest cockroach I've ever seen came across the living room wall. We sent a picture to the property owner, who downplayed the matter asked if we wanted him to come spray! Shouldn't that go without saying?!?
There is mold all over the ceiling of the bedrooms and bathroom. I understand that it is a damp environment and this will happen, but it appears that no effort was made to clean in between rentals.
The location, just behind a restaurant, is very close to the dumpsters for said restaurant. Not too big of a deal until the winds pick up and the smell of seafood that has been steaming in the dumpsters all day is sent your way.
The beds in each bedroom are about as soft and forgiving as a concrete floor. Speaking of the beds, one of the sheets and one of the blankets still had blood stains visible.
If you plan to stay here anytime soon, know that the house next door is under construction. Typically not a big deal, but a section of the Tyvek home wrap has come loose, and even with the slightest breeze can be heard inside the home. We had the TV volume at max and still could hear it whipping outside.
Lastly, and we just noticed this when we re-read the property description, we were never offered the $25 restaurant gift card that the description offers, so I guess you have to ask for it?
Overall, we enjoyed our time at the outer banks, and will certainly return, just not to this rental!!

We had a great stay being here. The house was even better then the pictures.The place is kept very clean, and the pictures don’t do justice how nice the ceiling is. I love how it’s decorated. The home is close to everything. Kitty hawk, jockies ridge, manteo, tons of restaurants and shopping. Not to mention it’s right across the street from the beach. Awesome place to stay.

Great location , had a wonderful experience and enjoyed staying at the cottage. Perfect size place for singles, couples and empty nesters looking for a quiet, comfortable place close to everything. Our only issue which was not a big deal was the listing included washer and dryer. Luckily we brought plenty of things to wear.

Mother/Daughter Trip
The Outer Banks is one of my most favorite places to visit and so I had a fantastic time sharing it my mom! The cottage was perfect for the two of us and the public beach access was extremely close. She had a great time!

Nice cabin!
We enjoyed our stay at OBX in this nice cabin that fitted our budget. The cabin was updated, clean, spacious, and had everything that we needed. The air conditioners are in every room and pretty quiet. I was glad to see that there was a drying rack in the sunroom. It is the first owner who realizes that people will need to dry their bathing suits. Usually, during vacation, I am struggling to find a place in the cabin where to hang our wet bathing suits and towels.
The location is nice because the beach is only 5 min. away and there some restaurants and shops walking distance. There is no good view from the cabin but you can't have everything!

We had a great time in this adorable cottage. It was nice to find a place of this size that was available for a weekend. I agree that the pictures don’t do it justice. Thanks to Patrick for being a great host!

This place was absolutely perfect. Clean and updated just as advertised… The owners were very attentive and kind and even helped us look for some thing we thought we left behind after the fact lol but definitely recommend this place and will definitely be staying here again

A perfect vacation!
I would easily give this property a 10 out of 5! My whole family LOVED the cottage--even both teenagers commented how great it was and much bigger inside than it looked. We all were very comfortable--with the 2 bedrooms, living room and sun porch, there was plenty of room, we did not feel on top of each other at all. The cottage was literally a 2 minute walk to the beach. It was fantastic being that close as we all were able to go and return whenever and as often as we wanted without having to constantly drive/pickup someone, and we didn't have to spend the whole day at the beach. It was very easy to go for sunrise, spend a couple of hours, go back for breakfast and then return to the beach for a few hours later. It was maybe a 10 minute walk to Janette's Pier, but a very easy walk with poles and gear. It is very convenient to shopping and groceries (food lion). The location is very convenient to Manteo, Kitty Hawk, KDH, Wright Bros Memorial, Jersey's Ridge, Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge, Pea Island for those seeking shells! Patrick was wonderful to work with, and he went above and beyond preparing our charter catch. I most definitely recommend this property!!
