Great stay

Great location. Very welcoming. Housekeeping was excellent, super pleasant. Place is very clean. There was a gas leak one morning, staff communicated via text, knocks on doors and a phone call. Super impressed. Easy access to the beach. Pool was clean as well.

Great Place to stay.

Our stay was really good. The motor lodge is very well kept and you can tell it has been updated. They have done an amazing job with the updates too, but what shines most about this place is the service. The staff is amazing. So friendly and so accommodating. They go out of there way to say hello and carry on conversations with you, showing that they really care. I don’t have anything negative at all to say and the only reason for a good rating and not excellent is that the beach access is so great and convenient, however it is a struggle to climb over the dunes. I wish they had a walkway but I do understand that they are doing the best they can with Mother Nature. My rating is only for travelers that may have a hard time with mobility. Other than that I highly recommend this place. Thank you to Linda for her hospitality and all the staff.

We stayed on the first floor and renters above were extremely loud w noise coming through floor at all hours of the day and night. Told staff and was told they would talk to them. Absolutely no help. Would not recommend and will be contacting management asap about a refund. This was not a relaxing atmosphere.

This is a nice motor lodge but a bit dated. It is conveniently located close to the beach and the flight museum. Several good restaurants within walking distance.

I booked here, Outer Banks Lodge, for a last minute getaway and it waa perfect. I didn't get an oceanfront room but the room was literally on the other side so it took a minute to get to the beach. The pool was big with enough seating for plenty of guests. I have already looked at dates to come back and stay here. I honestly think my favorite thing was NO KEY CARD, the locks were electronic so I didnt have to worry about losing it at the beach.
