Set within Cottages at the Cape, Buxton's most iconic coastal community, Cobia offers the perfect blend of peace and convenience. Walk or bike to the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Buxton's local shops and restaurants, or the famous jetties—known for some of the best fishing, surfing, and shelling on Hatteras Island. With miles of pristine shoreline and plenty of local flavor nearby, this Buxton townhome delivers the ultimate Outer Banks experience.

Explore Historic Hatteras Island
If you've always wanted to get away from the busiest areas of the Outer Banks but still be within easy driving distance of local restaurants, gift shops, and landmarks, Hatteras is the perfect place for you to take your next vacation! Just a few miles down the road, you can go birdwatching and explore the marshes of the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge or drive to Buxton to climb the famous Cape Hatteras Lighthouse. The anglers in your group will love being so close to Cape Point where they can try their luck reeling in a big catch. To learn more about the area's exciting history, stop by the Chicamacomico Life-Saving Station to learn about how water rescues were carried out long before modern technology. For a quick bite or tasty breakfast, drive down to the Orange Blossom Cafe for an apple ugly that's definitely worth writing home about. For dinner, try a delicious seafood meal from Pangea Tavern or a burger from Bros. There are also dozens of local shops within easy driving distance and all the fun adventures to be had in Hatteras Landing just down the road, so there is always something fun to do for the whole family.

Book Your Stay:
Whether you're here to unwind, explore, or simply soak up the quiet side of the OBX, Cobia is the perfect home base for your next family getaway.
