It must not bother the owners that they are in an absolutely fantastic location and let the place run down like it is. Hard to believe

Liked convenience to Morehead City public boat ramp. There was nobody on site to assist with check in issues. The envelope with my name on the front had the paper work for someone else inside and the assigned room had only one bed when 2 were ordered and paid for. Someone eventually came to fix the confusion.

It was a decent price. But we never got new towels or wash clothes for a 4 night stay. The sheets on the bed as they said were clean but “bleach stained”. The carpet was gross. But it worked for the time being because no where else had openings and there was a no refund unless you do it 2 weeks before you go.
