About this house rental
New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests.
Conch: 3-bedroom home with endless ocean views, direct beach access, and within walking distance of some of Hatteras Island's most popular restaurants. Enjoy the community playground and a short scenic drive or bike ride to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse.
Bed Sizes: 1 King, 1 Queen, 2 Twins
Build a beautiful resort village on a favorite Hatteras Island location, and they will come! The Cottages at the Cape are the closest rental units to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse in Buxton. They share a long border with the national park and are literally steps from the beachfront. Bring the bikes, because Buxton's unique shops, restaurants, and lighthouse are all very close. Forget the 4WD vehicle - those in the know have discovered that the jetties east of the cottages produce some of the best fishing, surfing, and swimming on this island. Walking to the south will take you to open beaches, the famed Cape Point, and if luck is on your side during the summer, a few sea turtle nests (be careful to stay outside the barriers). The interior has been professionally decorated with comfortable and fun beach décor. You'll have access to an outside shower and a patio. An escape to the cape never looked so good as at Cottages at the Cape.
Please Note: As a barrier island, Hatteras is constantly changing. Beach conditions, dunes, and access points may vary due to erosion, restoration projects, weather, and other environmental factors.
THINGS TO KNOW

Guests can enjoy access to the Club Hatteras Pool Facility. Additional details around this facility will be shared in your check-in email and during the check-in process. The club is typically open from mid-May to mid-October, depending on weather.

8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2026
This property is nice enough. The photos online are more like glamour shots, it's not quite as nice in person. It was decently clean upon arrival. The carpeting and area rugs seem a bit aged. One of the smoke detectors started to go off during our stay, presumably due to a low battery. The dishwasher has broken, rusty tynes that leave rust marks on items. The dishwasher also runs and runs and runs, for hours. It doesn't seem to know when to stop the cycle. The outdoor seating was covered in sand, almost like it just got pulled out of the ocean. It required cleaning to be usable. There is a serious lack of towel racks in the bathrooms. For a house that sleeps 6, there are only 2 towel racks. Not even hooks for towels. There is plenty of wall space for towel racks and/or hooks. We purchased a box of breakfast pastries one evening. Set it unopened on the kitchen counter overnight and it was covered in ants the following morning. The beach in this area could be a little questionable. The houses that are oceanfront now are in the ocean during high tide, making walking hazarous. You are basically on a captive beach during high tide with houses getting ready to be consumed by the ocean to the left and the closed bird nesting area to the right. The unsafe houses are curious. Beachgoers use them to hang out in the shade and store their gear. A questionable thing to do at best.

Had a great week at this house. The beach to right of the house was open this year. It was closed when we were at the house last year. The point was closed due to bird nesting which was disappointing but only the National park service can make decisions on that. We would definitely stay in this house again or another in the same community. We loved being able to see and hear the waves from the house.

The house is in a great location just a few yards from the beach. the screened in porch is nice. We didn't get to use it much because of the hot weather. Plenty of storage on the bottom floor for all the beach and fishing stuff which we bring alot of. We have been coming to OBX for over 30 years and this is the first time we rented a townhouse with one other unit attached and everything went really well. We definitely would rent again.

The property was as described. Though; the cabinets were empty of basics like salt and pepper. The cabinets were completely bare. The cleaners need to leave the weekly basics behind. This isn't specific to this property. It's an issue with the property management.
