“Fantastic stay”
Fantastic location and very close to the restaurants and bars. Beautiful view from the balcony and we enjoyed our morning coffee whilst watching the dolphins swimming in the creek. The staff were great - Doug was so friendly and helpful! We would definitely recommend this place.

“Great location in Shem Creek”
Great location, easy parking and nice size room with view of the creek. Marsh room view would include view of parking lot, and shade all day. We enjoyed sunny veranda and view of the pool. Quiet and less busy this time of the year, but music by the pool most of the day/evening. Could walk to restaurants, including The Wreck (featured in Outer banks series). Great walkway by the marsh and creek.

“Great spot! amazing views and atmosphere”
We stayed on the car park side due to maintenance during our visit, which was fine, but we wished we could have stayed on the creek side for a better view. The hotel is situated right on the pier, making it a great location with restaurants and bars all around. If you want to explore elsewhere, you'll need a car. We didn’t have a chance to use the pool, but we wish we had. The hotel room was very comfortable and spacious, with a great balcony, and it had a relaxed, quiet atmosphere.

“Perfect for February”
I was able to change rooms to the top floor for a better view. They were very good about it cause they were available. Marsh side was quiet, excellent view and exactly what I was hoping for
