This is the place to stay in Ocracoke. Centrally located in the old village, this home is within easy walking distance of shops and restaurants and places of interest like the lighthouse and Springer's Point Preserve. The kayak and bike rental on Crystal lake is just a short walk away.The home is very well appointed, clean and comfortable. There are two bathrooms and beds to sleep six people. One of the showers is a step through. One has a tub. The stairs to the second floor are a little steeper then what we would build today so I'd recommend that the older members of your party use the bedrooms downstairs. I have a 70 year old sister that navigated the stairs just fine, but she is very athletic. There are indoor and outdoor sitting areas. The outdoor sitting area has a ceiling fan and is open on three sides so it was very comfortable even during warm, humid weather. There is a bike rack and fire pit in the fenced in yard. Whether you bring towels and linens or rent them, be sure to bring a couple of extra towels to use as mats outside the shower and tub.My family loved this place. We could have easily spent the season here. It is a home away from home.
