Pookie's Cottage: Historic, Oceanside, YMCA Access

Historic and modern is what Pookie's Cottage is all about. This historic home was built in 1914 on the oceanfront in Nags Head and was relocated oceanside. Imagine the stories you could hear if the original pine floors, beams and shake siding could talk. Grab your sweet tea or mint julep and relax on the covered porches, taking in the salty breeze and ocean sounds. An enclosed yard will be just the place for your furry friends to run and play so bring them on vacation too!

The beautiful Nags Head beaches are within walking distance where you can bask in the sun, gather some shells or sea glass, swim or surf and after your adventurous beach day relax in your own private hot tub.

Pookie's Cottage also offers access to the local YMCA that is less than a mile away. You will have access to a seasonal outdoor pool, indoor pool, hot tub, sauna, locker rooms, fitness center and much more!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The property was clean and comfortable. Very spacious for our large group and fairly easy access to the beach. There was nothing consumable in the kitchen (oil, salt, etc), but luckily we brought most of what we needed and stores were close and convenient. We enjoyed our stay!
