Back down memory lane
“Escape the ordinary at Nostalgia In The Sandhills, a charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath retreat where vintage character meets modern comfort.”
Nubian, your host
“The home has been purposely designed to showcase the nostalgia of years past, and the memorabilia throughout the space embodies that very theme.” A rotary phone on the kitchen wall, a Pac-Man cabinet in the game room, a pair of ruby slippers on the shelf.
It is a single-level home with no stairs, in a quiet neighborhood still home to many of the original military families from the ’60s, one mile from Fort Bragg.

“Nubian and her crew went way beyond our expectations.”
Our song
One to sing along to, one to leave playing in the kitchen. Each comes in two versions, and the words come from the house itself and from your guests.
1970s soft soul: an airy high voice, electric piano, nylon-string guitar and birdsong
“Back down memory lane
Everything’s right where it used to be”
The rainbow rug, the red phone on the kitchen wall, s’mores by the fire, Pac-Man for the little ones and the ruby slippers on the shelf.
An instrumental: electric piano, nylon-string guitar, soft strings and birdsong
No words, just the feel of a radio left on in the kitchen while the coffee brews.
Made to play quietly in the background: for the site’s music button, or for guests to put on with their first cup at the coffee bar.
Spring Lake, North Carolina
“Enjoy the peace and quiet of a well-established community, still housing many of the original military families from the 60’s.”
