If you want to get a real feel for Roanoke Island and its history, a stay with the Scarborough’s should be on your agenda. Phil and Sally Scarborough are locals whose island lineage dates back centuries. They have designed and appointed their year-round inn to reflect the area’s heritage.
This includes a porch for rocking or swinging on the bench, pine floors, antique post beds covered with handmade spreads and rooms graced with local artifacts including original photographs of old Manteo and the couple’s ancestors.
Rooms come with king or queen bed and a single bed. Amenities include a coffee maker, microwave, refrigerator, TV and heat and air conditioning.
You will appreciate a continental breakfast, comfortable living room, and bikes for touring the bayside town.
Enjoy the company of the Scarboroughs, who offer Southern hospitality at its best. Maybe you can sit and rock a spell as they share a bit of the island history with you.
Check-in as 3 p.m. and check-out is noon.
