"A hidden gem in the Outer Banks. Rooms are updated and charming. This has become our favorite place to stay when we go to Nags Head."

Clean and close to the beach. Check in after hours was pretty easy, considering no one was there. Access code to the room takes a little getting used to and parking is odd, but overall a good stay. Would stay again!
