Romantics, history buffs, and anyone who appreciates elevated coastal accommodations will enjoy a stay at the Burrus House Inn. As one of the few local inns with direct waterfront access, this Manteo inn is an upscale and tranquil destination where the waterfront views shine, and some of the best aspects of Roanoke Island and the Outer Banks are just minutes away.
The Burrus House Inn is located on the edge of the water in Manteo, and is close to a host of local attractions including the beautiful downtown area where an array of antique shops, restaurants, and on-the-water activities await. The inn itself features a main house with a porch that encircles the grand entrance, and upscale waterfront suites that feature double showers for two, a corner Jacuzzi for luxurious soaking, private decks, and bay views. Expert craftsmanship and refined materials are used throughout, from wide plank pine floors to soothing wall colors, and guests will soon discover that every corner of the inn is perfectly suited for relaxed living. With pretty bay views and a convenient setting that’s close to the Nags Head beaches and the heart of Manteo, but which feels miles away from the hustle and bustle, the Burrus House Inn will entice vacationers to relax and enjoy Roanoke Island’s quiet side.

This year, the Duck Jazz Festival proudly reaches its 16th anniversary, and with it, we unveil our artistic vision:“Duck Grooves: The Sound of Jazz,” is an electrifying celebration of jazz’s dynamic, ever-evolving nature, set against the stunning backdrop of the Currituck Sound. It’s a fusion of past, present, and future, where the timeless traditions of jazz intersect with the vibrancy of new, innovative sounds. Just as the sound of jazz flows and adapts, so too does the landscape of Duck where the rhythm of the music harmonizes with the natural beauty of the water and the surrounding environment.
