Why “real” vacations are overrated
Vacations. Who needs them? So overrated.
One needs a vacation from the vacation when it’s over.
The packing. The unpacking. The travel. Plane, car, bus. None are fun!
Staycation in your brand spanking new Nags Head Hammock? Now you’re talking!
Order takeout for dinner. And drum roll please…dessert, too. Hot fudge sundae in a hammock? Don’t mock it until you’ve tried it.
On my last “vacation” I lost both my glasses and sunglasses while attempting to boogie board in the ocean.
A huge and unexpected wave knocked me off balance and off went both pairs of glasses.
{Insert whatever word to describe me here that you deem appropriate for wearing glasses in the ocean in the first place!}
Desperately, I felt the ocean floor for my lost glasses hoping to get at least one pair back.
Instead, my hand found a humongous crab and a bite was the end result.
See what I mean about vacations? Stay home. Home is where problems can really melt away with the swaying motion of a hammock.
Hammock = perpetual happy vacation. And if you haven’t read a good book in a hammock with a Sundae Crunch Bar…you haven’t lived.

Hammocks ~ The Simple Life Of Summer!
There are hammocks and then there are….ahem… just hammocks.
The better ones? There’s no comparison. It’s like comparing Godiva chocolate to chocolate sold in the bulk section of the grocery store.
Nags Head Hammocks = Godiva. Soaring above the competition. Literally soaring depending on where you place your hammock.
Guess what else? The Midori Indigo Quilted Hammock is comfy. Feels more like a mattress than a hammock.
You’ll sleep like a baby when nap time calls your name. Suspended in air with no pressure points!
Stylishly comfortable. In fact, Nags Head Hammocks boasts seven styles to swoon over.
Bold and bright stripes, patterns and colors to enchant you and enrich your space!
And don’t underestimate how comfy DuraCord® Fabric is. To the touch, it feels like cotton. But durable as steel!
And pretty. The Midori Indigo Quilted Hammock is gorgeous with eye-popping bold appeal!
Napping fast fact!
Just 20 minutes is all you need to get the benefits of napping, such as improved alertness, enhanced performance, and a better mood.
Naps of that length keep you in the lightest stage of non-REM sleep, making it easier for you to get up and go after your snooze session.

How Nags Head Hammock Rises To The Top!
- Durable Outdoor Fabrics: 100% Solution-Dyed Acrylic Sunbrella® is used for the top of the hammock bed and DuraCord® Fabric is used for the bottom, making the hammock highly durable, resistant to rot, mold, mildew and fading.
- Oak Spreader Bar: Premium Oak hardwood that has been repeatedly hand-dipped in a honey gold marine-grade varnish for protection and longevity.
- Rolled Rim Grommets: Compared to telescoping grommets used by most competitors, these Rolled Rim Grommets create the most secure bond between fabric and ring knot, withstand more stress and heavier use, all while being the most attractive.
- Galvanized Hardware: Galvanized steel is used for all of the hanging chains and hardware for added support and superior rust protection
- Quick-Drying: Nonabsorbent Polyester fiberfill batting lines the inside of the hammock, allowing water to drain through and provide quick drying.
- Handcrafted in the Carolinas: Manufactured and assembled by outdoor experts using the highest quality materials.
As a mom of three kids, I should know by now that favoritism is not okay! But I can’t help myself. Nags Head Hammocks is my fave and rave!

Nags Head Hammocks are proudly made in the USA!
Easy living with a hammock!
According to Dr. Steven Park, a member of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, your body should be on its back with the head elevated at about 10-30%. Hammocks put your body in this exact position.
Insomnia cure!
Hammocks may have the ability to alleviate and even cure insomnia. They think that the deeper stages of sleep that the hammocks induce can help with longer periods of sleep, thus, letting somebody sleep for a longer period of time.

A Hammock Stand To Stand Up For!
Nothing beats a hammock swaying from obliging trees. I am 50% less stressed spotting a hammock nestled between two trees.
But if you don’t have trees, I’m thrilled this giveaway comes with a steel arc textured metal hammock stand.
Hammocks have the magnificent capacity to transform from a bundle of rope, fabric, wood and metal to a destination once you hang it.
So that spot could be between two trees in the shade or on a stand in the sun to get your Vitamin D!
Because for all it’s plushness, Nags Head Quilted Hammocks are still highly portable pieces of paradise. Easy to move!
Choose a steel arc hammock stand in bronze, taupe or black to delight and daze you.
Pull the stand in and out of the sun to suit you. Lightweight to easily move when mowing the lawn or to get it out of the rain.

Metal stand fast facts!
- 13 Gauge Steel Piping: Provides an industry leading 450 lbs. weight capacity
- Powder Coating: Superior metal finish and extreme weather protection. Applied through an electrostatic process to ensure complete bonding and heightened rust protection.
- Hassle Free Assembly: This stand is easy to assemble and break down with just 8 poles. Tom and I take our apart for the winter and store it in the garage.
- Offset Hooks: Unlike the industry’s typical S or Z hanging hooks, our offset hooks are specifically designed to prevent rubbing against our hammock stands and wearing away the stands’ protective Powder Coat
- Choose from Black, bronze or taupe colors!
