K1307A "The Way We Were" Traditional Oceanfront Gem w/DUNETOP Deck!
Step back in time while enjoying all the modern conveniences in this lovingly cared-for historic cottage. Nestled in the heart of Nags Head, our vacation rental, "The Way We Were," is the epitome of comfort and nostalgia, offering a unique and affordable oceanfront retreat for families and friends. As you approach, you'll be greeted by a wrap-around covered porch, perfect for soaking in the ocean breezes and rocking the night away under the stars.
Inside, you'll find a cozy and inviting space that blends vintage charm with modern amenities. This home is more than just a place to stay; it’s a story waiting to be shared, a space where memories are made and cherished.
For those needing a bit more room, consider our adjacent two-bedroom cottage, "The Dune Bug" (K1307B), which offers additional space for your family or group.
One of the best parts of staying at "The Way We Were" is its unbeatable location. Tortuga’s, a local favorite, is conveniently located right across the street, offering a taste of the area’s best cuisine. Just a short stroll, less than 600 yards south, you’ll find the Nags Head Pier, a beloved spot for fishing and dining. The pier's restaurant serves up delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinner with a stunning ocean view.
For a sweet treat or a light snack, head over to Surfin’ Spoon, just 0.4 miles away, where you can enjoy a variety of frozen yogurt flavors in a cozy, laid-back setting. If you’re looking for some outdoor fun, Dowdy Park is only 0.3 miles away, providing a perfect spot for family picnics, play, and relaxation amidst beautiful surroundings.
As our guest, you’ll also enjoy complimentary access to the Outer Banks YMCA, located nearby. Dive into their indoor and outdoor swimming pools, break a sweat in the full-court gymnasium, or challenge yourself with free weights and group fitness classes. For the adventurous, there’s even a skateboard park! (VALID THROUGH APRIL 2025)
