Guests here are close to Jockey's Ridge State Park, the tallest natural sand dune system on the East Coast, and the Nags Head Woods Ecological Preserve, with more than five miles of trails winding through maritime forest. Fishing along the beach or from the pier, an easy drive to historic Roanoke Island and the NC Aquarium, and a wide range of restaurants and shops in northern Nags Head are all within reach of this Outer Banks address.
