The property was immaculately clean. The location great. We were there for 6 nights and really appreciated the fact that there was plenty of toilet paper, coffee, shampoo, body wash, blow dryer, etc. The studio was well stocked which was nice. Bed and pillows were good. We will stay here again!

The pictures don't do justice to how nicely decorated this apartment is! Everything we needed for our stay was provided. There were plenty of nice (new) towels. The kitchen was well equipped....but we got take out or went out to eat every night. There are several good restaurants within walking distance. Our Doodle went into a mourning period when we came back home. He had gotten used to being walked over to Festival Park a couple of times a day. We loved the location and would stay there again.

This is a perfect place for a weekend get-away! My husband and I loved the location and how you can walk to so many shops, restaurants, and the boardwalk. We enjoyed being about 10 minutes from the beach, while still experiencing the quaintness of downtown manteo. Thank you, Laurie, for opening your studio to us!
