Located at Mile Post 21, a short walk to the beach. At the southern town line of S. Nags Head and then another 5 miles of natural beach to explore with large dunes and no houses ending at Oregon Inlet. A 1 mile drive south takes you to the Bodie Island Light House which you can climb to the top and have a view of the entire island or walk over to the sound for some back sound fishing. The Oregon Inlet Fishing Center is just 4 miles further south where you can charter a trip for yourself or see the afternoon catch from the charter boats. Heading the opposite way, is a short drive to the Nags Head Fishing Pier and Fish Heads Bar & Grille. A few miles further is great shopping and restaurants. A few miles further you can visit the Aquarium in Manteo or the Wright Brother's Memorial and Jockey's Ridge.

We loved everything about our stay at Down South and will definitely be returning. The house had EVERYTHING and then some that one could need at the beach.

Property was just as described. Great location. Property owner is quick to respond. Close to beach access and fishing access. It is warmer on the 2nd floor so I would recommend a portable a/c for the warmer months. Would definitely rent again.

This house has all the supplies you could want for a relaxing stay - - lots of kitchen supplies, games, puzzles, books, beach chairs & umbrella. It's a short walk to the beach, in a very quiet neighborhood, and backs to the marsh for a good view of the sunset.

Although the house is older and some would see the items that could use some sprucing up, it reminded me of days gone by. We had a relaxing time.

This was our fourth stay at Down South. It’s always comfortable and relaxing, with lots of space in and out to cook, enjoy meals with family, read, play games and get some sun. The screen porch and deck are great, beach is a quick walk, neighborhood is quiet and stores and attractions are nearby. Couldn’t ask for more!

We had everything we needed, plus more! I appreciated the extensive variety of kitchen utensils and pots and pans, and the beach towels provided. We also used the beach cart, which was a lifesaver!

My wife and I, with our 2 college age kids completely enjoyed our stay. The kitchen was extremely well appointed. We baked bread and used the crock pot for a few easy meals. The bedding was nice and firm offering excellent nights sleep. We will most definitely be back. The sunrises and sunsets were magical.

It's always a shot in the dark when booking onlone, just as it's a delight when property is so much better than you could have imagined. Down South is absolutely comfortable, with even beach reading mags and books stashd ere and there. The back view is serenely glorious and the neighborhood is lovely and peaceful. The host is gracious and easy to communicate with. We're already planning our next stay.

Communication with owner before we arrived was easy and quick. Check-in was easy and we enjoyed the location which is a backyard and street away from the ocean. The neighborhood was quiet and safe and convenient to going either north or south on the Outer Banks. We enjoyed our time at "Down South". We did not realize we needed to bring our own sheets and towels. We stopped at a thrift store in Kitty Hawk on the way down and bought some. We left them behind in hopes that someone else will be able to use them in the future. Since we were flying from other locations and not coming from our home bringing sheets and towels was not possible. The thrift store seemed to be a good source for them.

This property was a very comfortable house to stay at. It wasn't the most modern home and a little weathered looking on the outside, but very charming. The neighborhood is very quiet. I loved sitting on the deck to watch the sunsets. The only complaint I have is that there are missing screens on the screened in porch.
