OBX Island Cottage~Water view~ 1 level, no stairs~ Beach 3.5 miles (8 min drive)

This cottage is located on Colington Island and is off the beaten path but still only 3.5 miles (a quick 8 minute drive) to the beach. You will be welcomed to this very clean and cozy, fully stocked and full of character cottage with a WATER VIEW OF THE SOUND. This cottage is located 1 lot from the sound and has a great water view.

The cottage is ground level and free of stairs. All doors are wide and handicap friendly. There are 2 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom. There is a utility room with washer and dryer available for guest use. Both bedrooms have queen size beds. The sleeper sofa also offers a queen size bed. Linens and bath towels/wash cloths are provided. The kitchen is stocked and has everything you need to prepare your evening meal after a day at the beach. This home is furnished with local hand painted eclectic decor. The outdoor shower welcomes you after a trip to the beach or for a shower under the stars. Just around the corner you can go crabbing on what us locals call “the crabbing bridge” such a great time and great way to make memories! This cottage is fantastic and waiting to offer you the perfect vacation!

Both bedrooms have Zinus 12 hybrid mattresses. These are a medium firmness in hopes of finding comfort for the majority of guests.

Great little cottage
We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage! Tanya was a great host, very communicative and provided lots of small things including dog treats and a dog bed for my doggo 🐶. The cottage was clean and very comfortable. Highly recommend!

Great for anyone!
We have rented many vrbo’s in the past and I have never been in a home that is so well equipped and welcoming. There is anything you could possibly want from snacks, spices, toothbrushes and on and on. Very dog friendly and wonderful for mobility issues. Unloading and loading the car was so easy since you park right at the front door. We recommend this vrbo highly and Tanya is a gem.

Our favorite place
We have stayed at the Island cottage numerous times and have never been disappointed. We ran into some medical issues with my son this last trip and the Host could not have been more kind and helpful, they even offered to watch our pets while we went to the hospital. Love this place and the people. We are looking forward to our next visit!

Great weekend getaway!
Very cute, well taken care of cottage, where our family of four felt welcomed and comfortable. Everything was very clean and the owner was so friendly and engaging. The location was perfect for quiet evenings and just a short drive to the beach and great food and fun.

My wife and I had a great time at this cottage a bit off the beaten path. This place has a lot of character and the property manager did a great job to accommodate us as guests and also our family dog. We were really appreciative of the amenities and the property itself. The owner has went above and beyond by providing a binder full of information anyone would ever need to know. This maps out fun activities, restaurants, etc. We really enjoy trying different restaurants while visiting a new place. The Saltbox Cafe is not far down the road and we had the opportunity to eat their food twice while we stayed. This was one of our favorite places we've ever tried while staying at the Outer Banks but you should either get a reservation or show up when they open. We also were able to take our dog on a nice little hike in the Nags Head Preserve. All in all we had a great trip. I do not typically leave reviews but this place is deserving of a 5 star review. I will definitely be checking the availability of this place for my next trip to the Outer Banks.

We loved staying at this property. It was VERY clean, had a beautiful view of the sound, and was in a great location. Close to everything you would need or want but still in a pretty quiet area. Tanya provided so many extras throughout the house, in case you forgot something. She really put a lot of thought into what her guests may need. We were very impressed. Would definitely stay here again.
