Not having used a non-hotel lodging arrangement before, we were cautious about staying in one. I chose this property based on the attractive pictures and excellent reviews, which did not disappoint. The property was so cute and exactly as the pictures show - very clean and well decorated, with older home charm. We liked the location, the area was quiet and walkable to downtown Manteo, and just a quick drive to Nags Head attractions. We enjoyed this more than a generic hotel and felt we got more for less money, and would stay here again if we travel to the area. ##### Cynthia O.

You would never knew it came thru the Outer Banks. The place was very quite and wonderful for us. Walkable to the down area to eat and enjoy the local festivities. We will be back . ##### Thomas N.

Jun 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Manteo Garden Gem This was a comfortable accommodation with an enjoying garden to hang out in. The walkability to all the cute town of Manteo was fantastic. We enjoyed walking to the coffee shop everyday and the distillery across the street was a fun place to spend the evenings. It is an easy drive to all of the OBX and we liked calling this home for a couple of days. One suggestion, move the kitchenette items from the bedroom and into the living room area with the dining table. I would have enjoyed being able to make my coffee not in the room my husband was trying to sleep in or hearing the refrigerator all night long. But this was a minor nuisance of our stay ##### Larisa S.
