We made a last minute reservation, locals to the coast, for a project we were working on. Six women were able to reserve two rooms, we had ample space for us to park our very large vehicles and watercraft on top. The facility was fantastic. There was a little bit of noise after 10:00 p.m. and I'm sure those were younger children. The ice machine was not putting out ice the morning we were to leave so we had to buy ice at the gas station. Otherwise our rooms were spotless, the bathrooms were large and bright, and the breakfast was honestly the best part of the entire thing. We enjoyed the attitudes of the breakfast staff the most! The gazebo and walkways were fantastic. We just overall enjoyed our very quick stay. Highly recommend! (And we live on the NC coast!).

The oceanfront location is very nice for this hotel. The hotel shows its age, even though they have updated the bathrooms and flooring, the rest of it is tired. The flooring was filthy with sand and dirt. Bathroom sink, toilet and tub was very clean. Breakfast options were catering to those who like lots of carbs and sugar - minimal if any fruit, no lean protein.
