Right next to the Nags Head Pier, so a great spot for fishermen to stay. Parking is crowded and clustered, and the place is old, so things aren't up to date, but they are well maintained.

This was the worst Inn I have ever stayed in from check in to dead bugs on there floors - long hairs left behind in the bathroom - a chair that looked like it came from the 50's and had been urinated on and smelled the same - I had lined the bed room with towels as to not walk on the floor in bare feet - had it been earlier we would have walked out of this Inn and looked down the road for better lodging - I am going to look into a refund!!!!
