This is my go to place for visits to OBX - great accommodations, far enough from the crush of visitors to be cheaper but close enough for access to the beach after a few minutes of driving.

This property was very colorful and cheery on the outside, and the room inside had been fully renovated. It was very clean and welcoming. The property was a short drive to attractions in the area like the Lost Colony production.

Nice and clean place. Good location to downtown. Little pricy for what ia delivers. Mattress was ok and we would like less light at night..... blocking light curtains would help.

This room was clean and well-maintained. The people were very friendly. Convenient to downtown Manteo and about 10-15 from Jennette’s Pier at Nags Head. Only negative is there’s just one parking space per room, but for most people that is probably just fine. A cute and comfortable place to stay. Would go back and would recommend.
