"Wonderful place, clean, roomy, ideal location right across from a park where you can watch the sun set over Albemarle Sound. We quite enjoyed kayaking on the canal, and we also walked to the ocean. I didn't see in the on-line listing that it has a mini-fridge and microwave, but we used the Keurig coffee machine. We'd definitely stay again."
