Perfect for a family getaway
This property was perfect for our family getaway. The walk to the beach is super easy and the house has all the amenities you could ask for including a much appreciated well stocked kitchen. Despite a slight hiccup at check-in (which was addressed and corrected) we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We will be back next year!

A Little Bit of Heaven
We have been staying at Horace's Hut for over 10 years. The convenience of location - few steps to the ocean as well as a short drive to our favorite restaurants and sights - coupled with a house spacious enough for our large family makes it the perfect place to getaway and enjoy peace and tranquility from the stresses of our busy lives. We always feel at home at Horace's Hut and enjoy all it has to offer. Just when we thought it couldn't get any better, we found everything new and updated when we arrived. Granite counter tops, new appliances, new flooring, beautiful 3 level decking, new furnishings, and so much more. It was just perfect in every way! My personal favorite is the hot tub which we enjoyed every day while there. For us this "little bit of Heaven" is always in our planning - every year. We love it so much we didn't even wait until we got home to book for next year.

Lovin' Horace's Hut
My wife and I first stayed at Horace's Hut back in 2016 and have returned two or three times a year ever since. The location in South Nags Head is perfect, away from the hustle and bustle but convenient to everything. Bodie Island Lighthouse and Oregon Inlet Fishing Center are only about five minutes away. We love that we can take our grandchildren out of the house and walk barefooted to the beach without any roads to cross. We checked in on 10/3/2020 and were excited to see all the recent upgrades/renovations. The kitchen is all new, top to bottom. It is well lit and provides everything we could ask for. I like my K-cup in the morning and the Keurig supplied sure beats taking one from home. New flooring throughout the whole main level, new living room and dining room furniture and my favorite, all new Trex decking on the outside. The new smart TV is a treat, we were able to log into Netflix and Prime Video with ease. Three of the five bedrooms have baths attached, our adult children love this when they are able to tag along. My wife occasionally has to answer emails and do some work when we are there and the Wifi does a great job of keeping her connected. Our Son and Daughter bot came down for a few days this trip, parking is not an issue. We easily fit the three vehicles under the house with room to spare. Horace's Hut has so much character and has become our go to place to de-stress and enjoy our family. Soaking in the hot tub and sitting on the bench on the observation deck are must do activities. Enjoy the ocean views to the east but just before sunset turn to the sound side and watch the beautiful sunset. Since our first trip in 2016 we haven't so much as looked at any other rentals, it fits us perfect.
