We felt right at home at Franklin's. It was the perfect size for our little family and allowed us to bring our pup on vacation. The cottage has such a homey feel and is in the BEST location. We love South Nags Head and we were easily able to access the beach just a short walk from the cottage.

If you are looking for a nice affordable cozy cottage in a quiet neighborhood this is the one! Been staying at the Franklin's for 2 weeks in September for the last 10 years and looking forward to next year if the Good Lord is willing.
