Great location across the street from the harbor. Within easy walking distance to many shops and restaurants. They have golf carts and bikes for rent if you want to cover more of the village. Our room was clean and the front desk and room service was excellent. Can’t wait to come back some day!

Last minute decision to stay in Ocracoke or take the next ferry? Nabbed the last room in Ocracoke and was blown away by the hotel! Really quite reasonable for a large suite with every detail thought of. Awesome view, attentive, experienced staff and obvious attention to detail throughout. Ocracoke is tiny, so everything is close by. It's not easy to get to but I hope to be back someday.

This is an excellent inn. The room was clean and comfortable with a wonderful view of the harbor. The rooms are on 3 floors and there is no elevator. However, there is a luggage lift that saves you from lugging your bags up the stairs. We walked from the inn to the lighthouse and around the town and harbor.
