Great location

We stayed here because we are playing in a 2 day disc golf tournament. We love this beachfront hotel. Right across the street is the Kill Devil Grill, and Swellsa Brewing is a short 2 block walk away. We love the location. It is also minutes from the Casey Logan disc golf course.

A fantastic Inn with Ocean View; Balcony included

The place feels brand new, and the amenities are everywhere. Convenient, walkways and porches right on the beach. the breakfast area is separate with plenty of options and extremely clean and neatly kept. The lady who managed it was cleaning tables and the floor after each guest left. I will be back again in summer to avail of this wonderful facility
