Dakota was professional, efficient, timely, and reliable. We had zero issues with their service during our stay and we cannot wait to use them next year when we return. There are so many companies to choose from in OBX but this one here is the real gem. Thank you so much Don and Dakota, you really made our vacation special!

We had 12 beach chairs, 3 umbrellas, 2 coolers filled with ice and 6 water bottles for 6 days. All of the equipment was in excellent condition and comfortable. Donnie was always on time and very flexible with your hours if requested. Well worth paying for this service and worth every penny. What a nice service not to have worry about traveling with chairs and umbrellas for one but then to have it setup and broken down for you daily is spectacular. I highly recommend this service with this guys. They are above and beyond others I saw and they even threw in a trash can set up right next to our spot. He is there earlier than anyone else so you're guaranteed to get the best spot.

No more lugging chairs, tents, canopies, coolers or wondering what do to with the trash. We show up exactly to the spot we want and enjoy the whole day. Their crew is so friendly and helpful. This last time, during the off season, we even got some great recommendations on dinner spots for places we hadn't tried yet. We have found friends in the crew at FarmDog. Thank you for giving our family yet another amazing beach day!

In years past, we…read morebrought our own tent, umbrellas, and chairs--spending time lugging everything to the beach and setting it up ourselves. But now that we're older, we decided it was time to make life easier. Enter Farmdog Beach Services. I found them through online reviews and reached out with a few questions. The customer service was impressive--quick, friendly, and helpful. One concern I had was the rainy weather forecast. They assured me I wouldn't be charged for days when setup wasn't possible. That peace of mind sealed the deal. We arrived on Saturday, and by Sunday morning our tent and chairs were already perfectly set up. This continued like clockwork every day of our trip. Even though we had one bad weather day, the overall service was so good I wouldn't even mind if we get charged for it. A special shoutout to Steve, the gentleman who set up our tent each day. He was the kindest, most polite and personable person we've met in Nags Head in years. My mom adored him. Steve--thanks for the secret fishing hole tip We'll definitely be booking with Farmdog again next year. They made our beach week truly stress-free and memorable. L Green

We happened upon this shop (via the advice of locals). Mike put it together quickly, for free, and wouldn't let us give him any money. He was not only generous, but he was a good guy. He had a gentle, easy way about him - striking up genuine conversation with all of his visitors, like he was an old friend. I recommend either of his two shops to anyone visiting the OBX. I rarely give perfect scores to businesses. They most certainly deserve it. I heard him helping other people ahead of us in line and he knows his stuff.
