About this property
Old Nags Head style with wrap around porch! Soundside Rd in Nags Head!
This cute, well equipped, modernized Old Nags Head cottage is in such a private location that you might not even be able to find it with GPS! The location features an extremely rare, private (shared with a couple of other properties), sandy sound-front beach that is perfect for all kinds of water sport activities. Swimming, fishing, kayaking, windsurfing, kite-boarding - you name it! Parents will be the envy of their friends because your children will absolutely love the warm, calm, shallow, clear sound waters when the ocean is cold and rough or red-flagged as dangerous, or even when the ocean is fine. The sound is a wonderful playground of its own. Tuttle-Chesson epitomizes Old Nags Head style cottage charm but it has all the modern conveniences, appliances, equipment and furnishings. Covered porches on all 4 sides provide a shady spot to enjoy the breeze no matter which direction the sun is shining! **Please note that the VRBO service fee will be instantly charged upon booking by VRBO but all rents, host fees, and taxes will be processed by Cola Vaughan Realty within 24 hours of booking and Cola Vaughan Realty will handle all of the details of your stay** **Please note that linens (sheets and towels) are NOT included.

honestly the home is very outdated, needs major cleaning as it appears that the owners don't really
I would not stay here again, neigbors dogs crap all over and just ran when they want to. there was no dryer, place needs a major cleaning and updating and grill where seriously was like something from the trash, shower curtains had mildew stove was so out dated you could not tell high or low or any thing as far as turning it on. sad that it is just an investment property not one that someone takes pride in. did no enjoy our stay at this house

Nice location. Great porch. Very basic cooking supplies. The listing needs to be corrected : dryer and DVD player listed in amenities and not there. You need to bring your own linens, towels etc. which is not stated in the listing ---it is on the contract though. Cleaning is only surface---under the furniture hasn't been touched in a while(plastic bottles and thick dust) Wasn't looking for it , but dog's ball rolled under and I got a surprise when I retrieved it.
It could be a lot nicer with just a little TLC.
The cottage is just like one you would have stayed in as a kid in the 70s - highly nostalgic and cozy. The seating and beds indoors were plentiful, if not comfortable. The rocking chairs and hammock on the porch where outstanding. The weeds were doing their best to overtake the porch although the family members a few doors down were doing a great job keeping the lawn mowed and pulling back the brush.
As far as amenities - we brought our own sheets, towels, tp, tissues, wash cloths, sponges and cleaning supplies in addition to hand soap and of course shower supplies.
There is an overgrown path across from the driveway that leads to a tiny beach with some cute benches and another hammock - which looked cozy. The bugs were biting and the sea grass was accumulated on the little patch of beach so we decided to not spend time down there. Plus, the neighbor's dogs run loose and they didn't much like our dog being over there.
The neighbor was friendly and kind - and so were the dogs except for the fact that they preferred to show their dismay with our dog by pooping in our driveway every day.
Also, what a surprise to learn that the garbage pickup occurs about 330 AM!! construction starts at 7 and the recycle pick up is early as well. While it's quiet most of the day, it's just a little jarring during traditional sleeping hours.
Overall a nice place to visit on the Outer Banks.
The location of the property was great. We loved the porch. A few things we were not pleased with was the driveway parking. It needed to be cut back more. There were 2 cooking sheets in the oven from where someone cooked bacon. Some of the dishes were not cleaned all the way. We had to wash what we used before cooking in it.
