The Gem is an eight-bedroom oceanfront home that checks all the boxes for a perfect OBX vacation! Just a short stroll from Jennette's Pier, and some classic dining spots, like Sam & Omies, you will love the versatility of this area. Take advantage of the short drive to Manteo, or book a fishing charter out of Oregon Inlet! There is no shortage of activities to do in South Nags Head.

Entering the home on level one, you will find two of the eight master bedrooms. A media room, kitchenette and foosball table round out the space for a great place to hang out, separate from the main living floor. You’ll be able to access the backyard pool area and private beach walkway from the lower level as well.

Moving up to level two, you’ll find the majority of sleeping arrangements with five master bedrooms, all with private attached bathrooms. The rec room on this level has a pool table that provides an additional place to gather and enjoy each other's company.

Coming up to the top floor, you’ll find the great room, kitchen and dining area, as well as the final master bedroom. Natural light graces the room, and views of the Atlantic can’t be beat from the ample deck space and covered porch. There’s plenty of space for the whole family to get comfortable in the great room, or you can nestle up with a book in the reading nook. Stay at “The Gem” for a vacation you’ll treasure forever!

This home is located at Milepost 17.

"View was amazing. Very few houses have a view like this one."

Cathy   ·  Stayed May 2025

"Great location. The cottage was perfect for the whole family (four couples and six kids). It is an older cottage that has been cared for and updated. Beds were comfortable. Loved being right by Jennette’s Pier, Sam and Omie’s, Cahoon’s, Dune Burger (hamburgers (made using freshly ground beef) all an easy walk. The older kids enjoyed walking to 7-11 and Taco Bell. Heated pool provided hours of enjoyment, not to mention the ocean! Theater area was nice, pool table, foosball, big tvs everywhere!"

"This home checked every box for our group of friends. The elevator was extremely important, as half of us are over 60. House was clean and in good condition. Kitchen is well equipped. Several members were in love with the media room. Location is convenient to all of our favorite restaurants. Plenty to see with surfers, dolphins and pier activity. Would definitely rent again :)"
