    Peppers is a cozy cottage for 2 people that is located on the ocean side. Only about a 150 feet to the beach.

    Pepper's has a queen bed and one full bathroom. There is an outside shower also.
    The kitchen is fully equipped so dinner is a snap! We have updated the kitchen and added a dishwasher. We even have an air fryer and a crock pot.

    The deck is spacious. Also provided is a deck furniture, a charcoal grill, and clothes line.

The place looks exactly like the pictures. It was dog friendly and the perfect size for my husband and I. The couch and bed are both incredibly comfortable. The place is stocked with all the essentials. The dune to the beach was a little steep when we were there. However there is a public beach access one house over and that was more level. Our host was great at communicating and was quick to respond. We had a great time at Pepper’s!

Booked Peppers cottage for my partner and I’s fourth Valentine’s Day together. This little cottage bungalow was perfect for what we were hoping! It’s small, intimate, and incredibly charming. The walk to the beach, both late at night under the stars or during the day, was easy and convenient. The amenities were wonderful, with the kitchen and bathrooms fully stocked. The WiFi was very good, as we were both able to game on the same connection. The proximity to all the wonderful attractions in Nags Head made this the perfect gateway! Check in and out was easy, and hosts were highly responsive and reliable.

Wonderful week in Nags Head. Peppers was just right for the 2 of us, and our dog loved it as well. Comfortable, clean and a very short walk to a great beach. Patio is lovely for drinks and stars. So glad we found it, and fully intend to return in the Spring for a couple of weeks.

A favorite place to stay

I have stayed at this cottage before as well as other Rentals on the Ocean rentals and every stay has been exceptional. The houses are older but so well taken care of and seem to be consistently updated on the inside and out as well as all of the amenities.

Clean and cozy. Perfect for me. They were very accommodating, as well. Less than two weeks before my stay, one of my dogs passed away. Within minutes of me asking, they refunded the pet deposit. Would definitely recommend.

Great little place and Terrific location

The perfect size for one to two people And a pup or two. Charming bungalow, great amenities. Loved the available seating on porch and deck (though cushions for the rockers and a small table between them wouldn’t be a bad idea.) Great access to the beach and close to grocery stores. Highly recommend!

Another great stay

We previously stayed at the cottage and the entire kitchen was redone. We arrived a little earlier than checkin time and reached out to the property manager who sent over the cleaners so that we could start our vacation early. Once again, a great place to stay and we will definitely return.

Fresh fish run

Drove down to buy fresh fish to bring back home. This place was cheaper than a hotel room. Cleanest place we have ever stayed. Has everything you need. Location was perfect. Beach is a short walk. Would stay again.

This was our second opportunity to stay at Peppers Cottage, and in my wife's words, we found the experience to be delightful. The cottage is true to the listing, which is not always the case for a vacation rental. It is a small cottage; basically one open living space and a bathroom. We stayed 11 days, and jokingly referred to the cozy space as a "marriage test"! Fortunately, we are a Senior husband and wife who like each other, so we enjoyed the snug environs.The kitchen area was well-equipped with cooking appliances and implements. There was an empty 3-shelf cabinet to stow food we brought along. Bed linens and towels were provided. We found the bed to be comfortably supportive. There is a bureau with deep drawers for clothing, but minimal space for clothes that require a hanger. We invested in an inexpensive portable clothes rack purchased from an online retailer (named after a South American river), which eliminated that particular concern.One aspect of our stay we particularly enjoyed was the beach access. Using the access on the property was a struggle for us. However, there is a public beach access just two driveways to the south; it included an access mat which greatly facilitated beach access for us.We had no need for communication with management during our stay. However, Ronni was great in helping us arrange our stay, including an adjustment to our original reservation.Overall, we highly recommend Peppers Cottage. We look forward to our next visit!

Perfect!!!

I stumbled upon peppers cottage while looking for a nice place to stay for our visit to the OBX. This little cottage was perfect for us!!! The inside is beautiful, the bed is comfy and the bathroom is big enough. It’s was wonderful for my wife and I. We don’t require a lot and like things to be simple. I loved that the kitchen for fully equipped and looked great!! We truly loved “peppers” and would love to return in the future. Email and telephone communications where good as well. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay!! Mike Hinson Albemarle NC

Nice place!

We enjoyed our stay at Peppers cottage. Cute and clean. They even provided us a starter pack with paper towels, toilet paper, dishwasher pods, dish soap, and 2 bars of soap. It was alittle hard to find on a dark rainy night. Didn’t realize it was on Laughing Gull Cottages property. Also be aware if you have mobility issues: beach access is nearby but over a dune of soft deep shifting sand. No board walk unfortunately. We asked to have a later checkout but this was not able to be granted even in off season and apparently costs an extra day. We did appreciate being able to bring our large dog along for the stay and will consider booking here again. Location is good in Nags Head.
