The staff was amazing! Everyone was so friendly and helpful when we weren't sure which room to go with they even let us peak inside them to make our decision. They have everything from cabins down to a more basic hotel room setting but I think everything had a porch. When you here motel don't let it discourage you this place is amazing and who doesn't want their door leading straight out to the beach. It is super nice with multiple smaller buildings making up the property. The only downside is be prepared for the stairs so pack light there is no way around them when you are this closet to to the water. By far my favorite place to stay in Outer Banks!

The stayed at the White House. The house was not a 1 min walk to the beach as stated on the listing. The “beach access” by the office looked like a hazard with all the construction debris everywhere. The pool was warm but had a green hint to it. The house was nasty and not at all what it looked liked on the listing. The floor made socks and feet black, there were ants, the house itself is not comfortable for anyone taller than 6’ or for anyone that doesn’t have a narrow body shape. As an average sized person I barely fit through the bathroom door. There is barely any water pressure in the shower and both sinks and the bathroom sink did not have hot water. The dishes were dirty when we arrived and the mattress toppers were also dirty. There are not many cooking utensils or pots and pans but for some reason there were 4 pie pans. There was only one baking sheet but it didn’t even fit in the oven. The stove and oven is only about half the size of a standard stove and oven. The kitchen sink kept moving around and was not actually attached to the countertop correctly. The bedroom blinds were also broken. The Roku remote also didn’t work and there were no paper towels or extra trash bags. I would not recommend especially for the price which was too high in my opinion for what we got.

Came for two day stay. Very clean! Friendly and hospitable. Peaceful, relaxing. Loved waking up and having the enclosed outdoor space nice to wake up and sit, have a coffee and watch the waves. This place has made a repeating customer for sure! Thank you for the wonderful time and stay safe this upcoming season!

We had a great experience staying here. We went for a 2-night off season trip and the lady who checked us in was very friendly and helpful with getting us set up with parking and keys. The “cottage” we were in was great. 4 very comfortable beds, seating for all of us on the couch and the kitchen had enough stuff for us to cook dinner easily both nights. The price was very reasonable, I’m sure it is more in the summer, but I was happy with it. In terms of the area, Buxton is great - more remote and less touristy than some of the northern areas. I would definitely return!

We are absolutely amazed and extremely satisfied with not only our beach front cottage, but the friendly staff was a welcoming change of pace. So very polite and nice. We will definitely be coming here again! This cottage and staff made our first trip to the outer Banks so much more enjoyable. The cottage actually sets just a short distance from the oceans edge. It was so relaxing to have the door and windows open throughout the night and having the ocean breeze flow through our room, and the waves lapping almost nearly at the bottom of the deck set the mood, and was very romantic and lovely.

Best kept secret on the island. Nothing overly fancy. These are great affordable places to stay. The people are absolutely amazing and their service is top notch. Already looking forward to next year's spring and fall fishing trips!

They need to fix their AC/Blinds/& clean the ceiling vents . But other than that it is beautiful here . Quite , you're right on the beach . Aside from the ton of sand bags on the beach it surely is a beautiful area .

The ocean sounds at it's best. We were just after hours checking in and our host walked us to our room. They have done some major work on the sand and broken pavement from the hurricane that was off shore. He had just replaced the steps and wanted us safe.
