Super convenient location to explore the quaint village of Manteo. Walk to the shops, restaurants and historical sights. Wonderfully restored interior space in an older home. Nicely appointed, comfortable bed, and great a/c. Would highly recommend.

down for a fishing tournament

Nice and clean, there happened to be some exterior construction going on during my stay but workers were nice and didn't start too early. Just meant I had to park across the street. Location is good and a short walk to downtown shops. Would stay again.

Wonderful stay

This is perfect for a couple seeking quiet, cozy comfort. Walkable to downtown and your nightcap to go is across the street at the distillery. Close drive to the beach but the advantage over oceanfront is being able to walk to good eats and bars. Try Firetender, great service pizza and smash burgers. This location feels less touristy than points north in obx and we will stay again
